Runs TTS - I'm usually a 2/4 and the XS fit well. The material doesn't feel all that amazing but it looks incredible overall. I got mine without a slip, but a standard black bra worked fine, though depending on your event and how adventurous you're feeling you could honestly probably skip that and still look great.

strangers stopped me to compliment this dress
This dress runs extremely large — I got the smallest size available and was still swimming in it. However, the top was quite fitted, so I don't think I could have gone any more than 2 sizes down. This dress is so much fun if you can get past the size/style. The colours are lovely and it's great for the warm weather. A friend described it as "a very Trader Joe's dress", so make of that what you will.

standard everyday dress
This dress is fairly cute, but nothing too special. Picked this out in-store when I needed something to wear asap for a brunch, and it did the job. Even wore it to work (pinned up the chest, with tights) the next day. Loved the sleeves.

Fantastic colours. Runs large -- I'm typically a 4 and went with the 38, which was a bit snug around my chest, but otherwise fit extremely well.

The fit felt a little off and was somewhat tight around my chest. The dress also seems to twist around a lot and I found myself having to constantly straighten it out throughout the day. Amazing dress otherwise, looks beautiful on and the colours are incredibly vibrant. I'm anywhere from a 2-6, and the S worked well.

possibly photographs better than it looks
I'm usually a 4/6 but both those sizes ended up being too big and I finally went with a 2. Wrinkles REALLY easily and is quite noticeable, which was a little annoying. Very pretty though and photographs beautifully so I can see myself renting it again.

so many compliments!
I wore this dress on three separate occasions -- to a party, to work, and just a casual day out. The dress worked well everywhere. The colours are fantastic and the ruffles aren't over the top. I'm usually a 4/6, and the 40/4 worked well so this is fairly TTS. 4/5 stars because the waist could have been more fitted and the material thicker -- definitely need to wear a bra with this.

so cute and it fit so well! i'm usually a 4/6 in dresses and don't wear jeans and trousers often so struggled a bit with the size. the 27 worked out perfectly and this was definitely something I saw myself getting multiple uses out of so i ended up purchasing it.

Excellent material
Like other reviewers have already mentioned, the top was a little baggy while the skirt was quite fitted, which made sizing a little complicated. It does run large overall -- I'm usually a 4/6 and the 2 fit me well. The zipper on this gave me a lot of grief but other than that this was a fairly nice dress.

this dress is straight up *ing dynamite
Fit is TTS. I'm usually a US 4/6 and was pleased with how the 8R/US 4 looked. The material feels quite nice, almost thick. I wasn't sure about the pattern and colour when I first saw this on the website but decided to get it anyway, and I'm really glad I did -- this dress is incredibly flattering and makes you feel amazing (what more do you want from your clothes?)

Size down
One of the few dresses I've encountered that I wasn't sure I had the balls to wear. Glad I took the risk but disappointed it ran so big. I'm usually a 4/6 and had to belt the SR to get any shape. The XSR would probably have been a better choice but such a cool dress otherwise!

I've always been scared of jumpsuits but I'm so glad I took a risk with this one – the colour is beautiful, the fabric feels lovely, and the whole thing looks quite nice overall. It does run rather large – I'm usually a 4/6 and the 4L I got felt too loose, so I would recommend going down a size. I'm 5'7'' and the length on the 4L worked well.

Looks a lot better when belted. Runs a little small – I'm usually a 4/6 and the 4 was somewhat snug, especially around the hips. It's weird but it definitely grows on you.

I didn't notice the back while I was ordering it but ended up wearing to work anyway. I managed to get away with it and think most people probably could too on a casual Friday. Great material, deep colour, looks lovely overall.

Shoulders take some getting used to
Such an amazing coat. Runs strange – I realise it's supposed to be oversized but the 40 I rented was almost too oversized, except for the sleeves, which were definitely too short. Shoulders are massive, yes, but it's an interesting style and looks fantastic so who cares?

Worked for a casual office day. There are obvious gaps between buttons when worn – my chest is really nothing to brag about, so this will probably be an issue for other people.

"I think this is the first dress you've rented that I like" - mum
My mother and very, very hard-to-please friend gave this a thumbs up, and I think that really says something. It's such a fun dress and the colours are perfect for the season. Runs a little big though, so probably go down one (or two) sizes.

belt it
Was looking for something conservative for dinner with relatives and this was definitely halal enough for them. It's actually a super nice dress and was much cuter than I was expecting. Recommend belting it as it doesn't really have a lot of shape and sizing down as it runs quite large.

cute print
But there are definitely cuter things out there on RTR. Also wrinkled very easily. On the plus side, the belt with this was actually much better than most similar ones I've dealt with, and the dress didn't bunch up too much around it. May rent again, doubt will ever buy.

interesting print, okay fit
I waited quite a while to rent this dress and I think I probably just hyped it up too much. It fit strange - unflatteringly fitted around the hips and just a little loose around the waist (the material ended up bunching up around my stomach the entire day). I'm not even sure if my torso was too long or too short for this (but there was definitely something wrong with it) so it honestly just might look better on someone whose shape is a bit better suited for this dress (personally believe it would look fantastic on someone with a longer torso).

I quite literally waited weeks for this dress, and it was completely worth it! The colours are so vibrant and it feels fantastic on. I do think it runs slightly small – I'm usually a 4/6 and the 6R I got was definitely a tight fit.

I'm usually between a 4/6 and rented a 6. It was definitely too big so go down if you are between sizes. Rented this for a second time -- it makes for a nice casual weekend outfit when the weather is a bit chilly.

fun coat, seems to run a little big, though can't really complain as sleeves fit perfectly. can't wait for the weather to get a little cooler so that it's acceptable to wear this out -- feels a tad too much right now.

fun everyday dress
I actually tried cancelling the order for this dress after I placed it because I thought it wasn't as nice. RTR wasn't able to cancel it though and I'm glad -- the dress looked better than any of the others I order. Small complaint: the buttons seem to be placed too far apart and tend to show when you sit down. May be too short for work if you're over 5'6

beautiful pattern but so short
I am between a 4/6 and went for the 6 (UK 10), which fit perfectly. This dress looks quite nice, though I probably wouldn't wear it to the office again. A tad too short for a professional setting, but would be great for more informal/relaxed occasions. Was a little sheer, but didn't really need a slip (though would recommend one if you're going to be out in the sun/brightly lit area).

Easily wrinkles, oddly tight around the hips,
Rented for a work event where I needed to wear something purple. The dress was okay -- it was very tight around my hips/butt, though really baggy (almost unflattering) everywhere else, so I don't think sizing up would have been a good option for me. Would ride up when I walked, so probably better if you're not going to be doing a lot of that (suppose the chances of this happening would be a lot less if it doesn't end up being too tight around your hips though!) The material also wrinkled really easily, so it didn't look the greatest at the end of the day. It's honestly just an okay dress -- I was excited to try it but don't think I'll be renting it again.
