Pretty shirt for an evening out
Warm enough despite the open lace. Pretty and easy to wear. I paired with jeans and wore out for a nice dinner.

Has the function of a white Jean jacket but so much more sophisticated. Fits great with a little stretch.

I read the reviews carefully and sized up but not enough. Otherwise I would have liked them and the cropped length still works for a shorter person. I’ll try another size next time.

Perfect beach cover up
I can’t believe anyone would pay $500 retail for this but it’s a perfect example of why RTR rocks. Perfect flowy coverup that elevated my usual beach attire. Would definitely rent again ! I had to roll the sleeves but the fit was ideal.

Rented for a beach vacation and it was perfect for dinner out at a fancy resort. Something I would never buy but correct for this trip. A little too much volume in my small frame but otoh the fit was forgiving.

I didn’t end up wearing this
Even though it’s very cute. It was a little too much fabric in the heat and on my 60 yo body. I’m probably being hard on the dress and myself but I felt silly in it. Good length, soft fabric and pockets though !

Fits great, light and versatile
This dress fit me so well and the ruching and the fact it’s lined and the busy pattern are all flattering and hide the things you want hidden. All while being very light and airy. Silky so can look dressy but I could also wear with sneakers. Watch that you grab the lining when you use the bathroom ! I was going to return it bc it’s a little low cut but the purchase price was too low to pass up so I kept it !

Perfect fit for a wedding welcome party
I wanted something midi and flowy and this was ideal. Light weight and VERY flattering with no shapewear. It’s thing but skimmed the body. Nanette Lepore fits me well and this was no exception. For context I’m small But thicker in the torso and her dresses accommodate my chest. A perfect rental experience and would rent again if I had the right occasion.

Really boxy but cute
I wanted to make this work. It would have been awesome for our heat wave and the fabric is crisp and has some stretch. But between the boxy shape and my chest size it just was a no. Sent it back.

I followed everyone’s advice and sized up one size and it was still super small And skimpy. I’m normally an XS and if I try again will order a medium or large.

Beautiful but shows every bulge
I wanted to wear this to a wedding and think it looks great from the front. But the back showed every lump and line and after trying many shapewear combos just bailed. This might be a me thing. Definitely size down !!

Not a great fit for the short waisted.
I wanted to like this and even sized up. It was still just not flattering on me. And made my backside look really wide. It was just too much bright white fabric on my small frame even as it was tight in the hips.

It’s not cotton !
Although other people had mentioned it was heavy I believed the description that it’s cotton. It’s clearly wool and way too heavy for this time of year. Liked the fit though and will consider in the fall.

Love it !
I rented this as a bonus item with low expectations. And haven’t stopped using it. I have been obsessing about whether to purchase it and I think I will just rent for the summer. It’s a little big on me and things get lost in it so I may get tired of it but it’s so smart looking. Tons of compliments. Would definitely rely but if it was a more year round bag

Shows every bump but very pretty
I wore this to an outdoor party. Lives the fabric and wanted to love the fit. Despite being the right size and accommodating my chest the zipper pulled across the back creating a less than optimal line. And it shows every line from my bra and panties. I tried some light shapewear which I NEVER do and it just moved it to new spots. That said with a really light sweater covering my back and said lines I felt confident enough to wear it to the party. My partner really likes definitely not my usual thing.

Beautiful bright body con
I took a chance and went way out of my middle aged comfort zone with this bright right midi (which is a maxi in me ). And it was just a bit too tight in the torso where I tend to carry my weight. I’m only 5’2” and 110 but menopause isn’t kind. I would consider ordering the next size up if I had the perfect event although it might be too long. The fabric feels luxurious, would be gorgeous in the right person.

Great versatile silk shell
I wore this more than anything I’ve rented before. With black pants and a blazer to a work lunch, with jeans out to dinner, with black pants again and a sweater to a graduation. Would have easily done white jeans if the weather was warm enough. Very luxe feel and pretty pattern. My partner loved it. Thought about buying but didn’t bc the fit was a little boxy and it’s a lot of $$ for a simple square ish silk shell.

It fit but felt bulky
This is my size, but it felt a little overwhelming for my petite frame and the pockets and shoulders felt lumpy. Beautiful fabric, I may just use it more as a light weight jacket thana blazer as planned.
