Rent this showstopper of a dress NOW!
This dress is hands down my favorite of all time. Cannot explain how many compliments I got on it (from guys and girls alike), but it must have been close to 50. Not only are the details exquisite, but the fit is simply perfection as well - the sleeves, the embroidery, the flowy movement of the bottom half - I cannot rave more. Another bonus is you can easily wear a sports bra - total win for the ladies. Three (slight) cons - you will need someone to help you zip the dress up (though this is par for the course with formal wear); the dress is quite long with a lot of fabric, so there is a bit of a tripping/stepping on dress hazard (for reference - I wore about 4-inch heels, and the dress still dragged slightly); and the portion around and under my armpits was quite tight and was cutting into my skin - it's not something I noticed while wearing, but my skin was definitely slightly chafed after wearing. But all in all, these are very minor complaints for an otherwise perfect dress. Rent. This. Dress!

The ideal everyday-wear skirt!
Amazing, lightweight, and on-trend skirt! Super breathable material makes this perfect for the summer. Couple small complaints: fabric wrinkles pretty easily and is very thin (so doesn't "hold in" the stomach as well as some similar, but thicker, skirts I have rented in the past). Overall, a great skirt that I've now rented twice!

Stunning red dress!
This dress is gorgeous--absolutely loved the details, the quality, the color, and the top half (sleeves and neckline to die for) of the dress. The only reason I did not give five stars is the bottom of the dress is not the most flattering. There are a couple different tiers/layers of fabric at bottom, and the effect of such is that it looks a little bunched. Still a stunning red dress, just would have preferred there not be the different tiers of fabric at the bottom.

Really stunning jacket!
Overall, I did really like this jacket, though the fit was a little snug (nothing unbearable, but wasn't the easiest to move freely in). The tie around the side of jacket was also a little confusing for me to figure out how to style--ended up just tying in the back, but don't think that looked the best. Because of the somewhat uncomfortably snug fit and awkward tie, had to give 4 stars instead of 5. Still worth renting (I'm sure that other people could figure out the tie better than I did), as really is a beautiful jacket!

This piece fell short for me--the fit was rather large/baggy and otherwise it was just sort of blah.

Total statement top!
This one I wasn't sure about when I ordered--as the pattern and super high neckline are not what I typically wear, but I am so glad I ended up renting. It's a beautiful piece and looked stunning on. Not something I would wear every day, but really glad I rented something outside of my comfort zone! Would recommend this one most certainly, whether it's your typical "style" or not.

Darling dress!
Beautifully made dress that fits totally TTS. Could tell from the second I received and put on what a quality piece it is. Definitely recommend this one! Nothing super fancy, but great for a nice date night with the honey!

This top was so feminine and pretty, and received so many compliments wearing it. The details on the top are amazing, and the bell sleeves make it even better. Definitely recommend renting this one!

I was excited to receive this item after seeing it online, but unfortunately it was entirely too large to wear. I always seem to have problems with jumpsuits though, but definitely recommend sizing down at least one size for this one.

Casual, classy elegance!
Such a pretty white top--fit perfectly and was truly a stand-out piece. Off-the-shoulder tops, although I'm a big fan, can often annoying to wear after a while (they never seem to stay up, etc.), but the tie around the neck with this top completely solved that issue.

Date night look on fleek.
Cannot say enough good things about this shirt. The pattern, the fit, the cut at the top, the flowy-ness--absolute perfection! It does take a minute to figure out how to tie it, but is really simple once you understand what you're supposed to do--the straps start in the back and then you just loop them through the front (there is a little fabric loop/hook to do so) and tie straps together in a bow. You can easily adjust fit (i.e. how low the cold shoulder sleeves fall on your arms) by tying more loosely or tightly. You absolutely must rent this one!

Fits like a glove.
This dress is really beautiful and unique. When I first put it on, I wasn't crazy about it as the color is not really "me" and the detailing took a little getting used to, but after a few minutes it really grew on me. It fit like a glove, while being very comfortable. The one complaint I had is that the black slip underneath kept falling down at the bottom and was visible below the dress line, so that was a constant adjustment that had to be made.

This is definitely a beautiful top, but runs small--especially in the arms. I was extremely restricted when tried to lift up my arms at all (i.e. couldn't even adjust hair). A small might have been better, but then I think around the stomach and chest it might have been a little large. The red color and details/cutouts really stand out with this one, but if you're looking for comfort at the same time this is not the right pick. I only wore for photos for about 15 minutes, and that was about my limit from a comfort perspective.

Cute and comfy everyday romper.
This overall fit true-to-size, though was certainly on the shorter side--so for anyone taller, it might not be as practical (I am 5'6"). It was a little flowy around the bottom as well, but that is the case with many rompers, and I think that was "in the spirit" of this one. Overall, a really comfortable and cute casual romper that is perfect for just kicking around on the weekend. Would recommend.

The perfect dress for an island wedding--formal and form-fitting, but extremely comfortable.
This dress fit like a glove and is probably my favorite dress I've ever worn. Received so many compliments on it. From the length, to the bright blue color, to the lace detailing, to the perfect fit, I cannot say enough good things about this dress. An absolute stunner and stand-out piece. Highly recommend this one!

This shirt was EVERYTHING. It fit perfectly and the lace detailing was stunning. A true white stand-out piece. Quick side note--one side of the collar was torn, but this could easily be tucked under and was not really noticeable (at least with hair down/covering it). Just wanted to point out though, since that is one slight quality issue. However even with that, I highly recommend this one. Would hands-down rent again!

Dress color was so pretty (a really beautiful coral!) and the material was super comfortable, but the fit overall was not the greatest. It bunched a little down the middle of the chest (though maybe wouldn't do that so much for people with more boobage--I'm a B cup), and the bottom also was not as form fitting as I would have liked. I think it would be a beautiful dress for some people--just did not work on my thin (and not very curvy) frame. Would recommend sizing down based on my experience or at least for a back-up size. Ordered this as a back-up for a wedding--luckily the first option from RTR is a total stunner so just sending this one back :) Would give 3.5 stars if that was an option fyi--since I do think it could be a really gorg dress on the right person/body type!

Just a super cute every-day casual dress!
Overall, this dress is absolutely darling. The overall fit is true to size and super cute--form fitting enough to accentuate the curves but the bottom provides plenty of flow/room to make it a super comfortable all-day wear. The only issue and reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is in regards to the OTS sleeves of the dress. You have to tie the dress in the back extremely tight to ensure the sleeves stay up/do not fall down to make a quite awkward look, so this limits the movement of the arms out to side and up. So that can be kind of a nuisance, but as long as you know what you're in for, I would definitely recommend this adorable little number. Received multiple compliments in the few hours I wore it!

Dress pattern is super cute, but unfortunately the fit was not the best. Length was great (fell about 4 inches above the knee--I'm 5'6"), but the bottom was very boxy and not form-fitting--so didn't do much to accentuate any curves. The area around the chest and upper back was also large and parts of the dress were folding out. Probably could have done something to help fix the issue, but I just wore for a casual happy hour so didn't bother to do too much with it! Could be a really cute dress--just fit was not the most flattering!
