This dress was fantastic!
Perfect for my HS reunion! I thought I would never wear the XL, but it actually fit better than the large. The material is really stretchy and it fit my bust better without appearing stretched out. Nice light material, got lots of compliments. Paired it with funky teal heals. I want to buy this dress!

A pretty dress
I rented this dress for a conference party. It was pretty but was definitely on the conservative side for me. Size 8 fit my bust and hips, but it was really big through the mid section. There is no way I could have made a size 6 work. I would have liked for it to be a bit more form fitted to my curves. On the plus side, it had pockets! Wore it with nude pumps (forgot to take a picture). Got numerous compliments. Wouldn't rent it again as it wasn't my style, but no complaints about the dress itself - it was well made and in great shape!

This is a great blouse that can be dressed up or down!
I loved this blouse - would definitely rent it again. It runs large. I ordered XS and S. The XS was a little too tight in the neck, so I wore the S. It has slits up the side (which I pinned) but it fit nicely and was comfortable.

This was a great dress!
This was a back-up dress sent when my original dress became unavailable. I was afraid it wouldn't work for an outdoor wedding in November, but I paired it with a black cape-like coat which worked well. The photo I uploaded doesn't do it justice - the fabric is pretty and it fit perfectly. I didn't wear a bra with it - just petals. I would definitely wear this again!

A cute dress, it has pockets
This was a back up dress sent when my original dress became unavailable. I didn't end up wearing it, but it was cute. They sent an 8 which fit fine. The bodice design was nice and so were the pockets. This wasn't quite my style, but it was a nice dress.

A cute dress for an outdoor Fall party
I liked this dress and paired it with black tights and black shoes. The bodice was a little small for me, but the body of the dress fit well. The sleeves were gigantic and I had to roll them up. They were almost as if the elastic in them had been stretched out. I would rent this dress again.

A fun dress for a red carpet party
I ordered a medium and a large and had them delivered to my hotel for a party at a conference. The medium was too tight around the hips, but the large fit fine. I had to walk a couple of blocks to the party and noticed that the edge of the dress was starting to irritate my legs, but once I got to the event, I didn't notice it bothering me again. I received many compliments, and two other women also rented the runway and had the same dress!

This was a nice dress - nothing fancy, but worth the cost to have something new to wear for a party
I will note for people who rent in the future - I didn't see the black accessory bag in the garment bag that held the belt for the dress. I wore the dress for my two events without the belt, thinking they had forgotten to send it. That would have been my only complaint about the dress. As I was packing it to ship back, I found the belt. So, make sure you really search for the belt!

A unique dress
This dress worked well for an evening wedding. My original size order was for the 42, but the back-up size 40 fit perfectly (it is just a toss up whether I fit into a size 8 or 10). Received numerous compliments on the dress. I would consider renting it again.

A simple dress, but runs a little small
This was a replacement for the back-up dress I had selected (my back-up selection wasn't returned in time and this replacement was selected for me by RTR). I typically wear a medium, but with some clothing I can fit into a small - I rarely have to go up to a large. With this dress, I was unable to zip the side zipper, so luckily my original dress selection fit me as I wouldn't have been able to wear this dress. I had to laugh when I saw what they sent me. The wedding I attended was for a Clemson alum, and this dress is solid U of SC colors!! I am sure the bride would have forgiven me if I had worn it...
