I wore this dress to a luncheon and was overwhelmed by complements.
You can tell that this is a top designer dress from across the room, so well worth the rental fee. The fabric is a gorgeous silk crepe de chine; someone actually asked me if they could touch it. Beautifully cut and flattering with the handkerchief hem and two black ties in the back, and the red spots are vibrant against the black background. I hope RTR will continue to have more elegant designer items like this!

Truly stunning earrings - elegant with a little edge - I would give them six stars if I could!
I rented these earrings for a daytime but dressy wedding. I might not have chosen them if I hadn't tried them on in a RTR showroom - they're so much better in person. Gorgeous shade of blue, just the right amount of sparkle - they would be perfect for almost any event. I really didn't want to part with them. One note: they should definitely be worn as pictured on the model - at an angle- rather than straight down as in some of the photos - makes all the difference!!

Didn't wear it
The color is great and the top is fun with the mesh detail, but it flared out quite a bit at the hips, at least on me, which was unflattering, so I didn't wear it.

Added the perfect touch of color to an early Spring gala.
Very pretty party dress. Definitely go down at least a size. The 2 wasn't as fitted as I might have liked but still worked very well (the 0 wasn't available) and since everyone else was still wearing winter colors it stood out and was a big success.

Added style and warmth to an early spring gala.
Both fun and elegant, a perfect medium-weight wrap, and you could easily dress it up or down. I draped it over my shoulders much of the evening and received many compliments.

Stylist suggested it as back-up and didn't wear it, but very pretty dress.
It was a possible last-minute replacement as my main choice wasn't available in my size. I ended up not wearing it because it was a little too dressy for the occasion but the size 2 fit perfectly and I could have worn it without a bra because it has a built-in bodice. Very bright blue stands but, other than that classic pretty and feminine.

The perfect clutch for a summer cocktail party in the Hamptons!
Great summer bag with the subtle interweave of gold and white and cute seashell clasp, but best of all, loved the size! Could actually fit my phone, credit cards, comb, make-up etc. and was comfortable to carry. No more tiny little evening bags.

Subtle blush color with just enough sparkle - the size and graceful shape lends drama and elegance.
My stylist recommended these to accessorize an outfit for an outdoor cocktail party - great call. They were absolutely perfect, better in person than in the picture, and light as air; I got compliments all night long.

The color really popped - perfect for a daytime wedding, got lots of compliments.
This was my second choice but the zipper was broken on my first. Still enjoyed wearing it - beautiful hot pink, very feminine and comfortable; pretty and youthful rather than sophisticated. Would advise going a size down as a back-up.

Very long and dramatic - beautiful green minty color.
Got them to go with another dress but the zipper was broken. I liked them so much I wore them with my second choice dress, which was pink. and they looked great.

I received lots of compliments and got to try a different look.
I don't usually wear flared skirts so this was a departure for me, but since I'm 5'2" the skirt was just above knee length, which made it look sexy but elegant paired with some high-heeled patent-leather shoes and diamond drop earrings. Also very comfortable to wear and the dark blue is flattering.

At least ten people asked me where I got these earrings - lots of compliments.
These earrings really surpassed my expectations since they're relatively inexpensive and made of plastic. They look great in "person" - terrific color, perfect size, lots of sparkle and not heavy to wear. I couldn't have been more pleased with them.

Got as an alternate for an after-work charity event and didn't wear.
Very cool-looking dress, great color, with unique "scuba" fabric that would probably have been very comfortable to wear, but I'm a true size 2, and the 2 fit on top but was large on the bottom, giving the appearance of bigger hips. I'm also 5'2" and it hit lower than I would have liked, so probably better on a taller person.

Zipper stuck so didn't get to wear it.
This is an absolutely fabulous dress, very chic, great color, and I was heartbroken that I didn't get to wear it, but the zipper got stuck and even the tailor couldn't fix it. The "Runway" people were very nice about it but didn't have another one to send, and anyway, all the advice had been to get the next size, which hadn't been available, and which I definitely would have needed because it does run very small in the waist. Oh well.

Wore it to a fashion show charity event and got lots of compliments.
Fabulous dress, but I'm 5'2" so it hit below the knee and was looser on the bottom than I would have liked; also a little long in the torso, so basically designed for someone a little taller. Having said that, I did get tons of compliments from "fashionistas" and it was the perfect dress for the occasion, so I can't complain. I wore it with the earrings shown in the picture and they looked great.
