So flattering!
The waistline placement and draping of the skirt make this so flattering! Hits at the thinnest part then some forgiveness over the hips (but definitely isn't fit-and-flare). The pattern and fabric are lovely. I wore it with heels to a baby shower during they day then put on boots to go out to dinner at night. Got lots of compliments and felt great. Wish I could own this! Though it's true to size for me, I'd suggest going up in a backup size rather than ordering down.

Scribble Printed Midi Dress
Derek Lam 10 Crosby
Size Worn: 8R
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 8"
Bust: 36DD
Flattering and simple but interesting
This is one of my favorite RTR dresses to date. Got tons of compliments. It's the right amount of minimalist interesting for a wedding. I'm not usually comfortable in a body-con style but the fitted shape + thick fabric were incredibly flattering - emphasized curves and hid some lumps :). Get the size up for your backup size; it is body-con and runs a bit small (though to a degree that's consistent with high end designers). And I didn't have any trouble eating or dancing with the arm band, though I wouldn't have been able to raise my hands in the air like I just didn't care.

Red One Shoulder Popover Dress
ELLIATT
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 8"

Balance of simple and something special.
These were lightweight and twisted interestingly. I got a lot of compliments on them. Looked much more expensive than the price I paid to rent them. Would rent again.

Flattering, versatile jumpsuit
Loved this jumpsuit! Got lots of compliments. The high slits made for great movement but I didn't have trouble with keeping it a bit modest. The open back was interesting but not too revealing for a family wedding. I wore stick on silicone cups, but I probably could have gotten away without them.

Great color, great draping, super flattering.
Loved this shirt. It was a great color, flattering draping (fitted where you want it to be, loose where you don't). I used a steamer to make sure it didn't look rumpled.

So pretty. Not heavy!
Dramatic piece that's comfortable to wear. I work it to work with a tee shirt, then the next day with a fancy dress for a wedding.

Azia Purple Necklace
Nocturne
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 8"
Bust: 34C
Flattering and fun NYE dress
Fit well. Sleeves were on the snug side (in the flattering way that you want them to be!) and the dress was slim without being too body con. If you want it super fitted, you could go down a size without running into problems though. It was short but you need that to balance out the long sleeves. Wear tights if you're nervous about that. Only challenge is that the sequins sometimes get snagged on the threads so watch out for wild arm movements.

Aileen Dress
Slate & Willow

Beautiful, comfortable dress.
Loved this dress. Could be dressed up with killer shoes for a party or dressed down with conservative accessories for something more professional. Flattering slim fit without being too tight. Material was thick enough to be forgiving but not so thick as to add bulk. Had a nice (though not spandex-y) stretch as well.

Block Party Dress
Narciso Rodriguez
Size Worn: 44

Great dress! Flattering and versatile.
I wore this dress to a fancy DC holiday party and it was perfect. Professional but festive. Elegant but neither ostentatious nor too conservative. Really flattering fit. It's meant to be a slim fit so if you're uncomfortable with that, order a size up.

Beaded Swirl Sheath
Lela Rose
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 8"

Nice dress but not spectacular.
I did get compliments but this dress wasn't a showstopper. (They can't all be!) Having said that, I don't regret renting this dress. One nice thing is that this dress could serve a few purposes based on the size. The dress did fit true to size but could also be more casual and flowy if you order one size up. If you want something super fitted and dramatic, order a size down. This would be a great office holiday party dress but maybe not a sexy number for a Vegas night out.
