Cool fabric, but the fit isn't great.
The fabric on this dress is super thick and sturdy, which makes it look nice - but it's not very comfortable. It was tight in the waist, but the chest was too big on me and I kept having to adjust it so half my bra wouldn't show.

Cute bag for a birthday date
This bag was an accessories upgrade i got from RTR because the earrings I originally ordered could not be sent to me. It was a cute pattern, very soft, and a good size - big enough to fit everything I needed but small enough to be cute for a nice date.

Love this necklace! Wish I could have kept it!
This necklace was gorgeous. Looked great with a simple black dress - not too big but definitely noticeable and very pretty. I would wear this all the time if I owned it and was sad to return it!

I didn't love this dress, but it was fun to wear for a night. Not great for my body type.
This dress was ok. Definitely not my favorite rental. It looked fine with some fashion tape to close the open top (definitely necessary!), but I was pulling down the skirt part all night and it was a little too short for my comfort. The top was enormous on both sizes, which is why I didn't wear the size Medium instead of the Small. Probably not the best dress for someone like me with more of a pear shape.

Beautiful, fun, sophisticated earrings!
I wore these earrings for my bachelorette party and they were beautiful! A great size - not too big and not too small. I wish I could have kept them!

Beautiful statement piece!
I wore this bracelet along with a dress and other accessories from RTR for my 1920s themed bachelorette party in NYC. The bracelet was larger than I expected, but in a good way - it makes such a statement. It is a high quality piece - not flimsy or poorly made. I don't usually wear bracelets because I find them uncomfortable after a while, but this one was very comfortable all night. I wish I could have kept it!

Perfect for my 1920s themed bachelorette party in NYC!
I had so much fun wearing this dress and felt amazing in it all night. I fit into the small, but it was a little too short for my taste and not quite as comfortable, so I opted for the medium to give myself a little wiggle (and dancing) room for a long night of partying all over NYC. The medium is not significantly larger than the small. It was really comfortable, looked amazing and fitted but wasn't tight or constricting, and the sequins were not itchy. It photographs really well too. I would think this dress wouldn't be great for a large busted woman, but it fit me very well in both the chest and hips. LOVE THIS DRESS!!!

Perfect for my bachelorette party in NYC!
The clutch is larger than I was expecting. It held my phone, wallet, keys, lip gloss without having to stuff anything in. Such a fun accessory for my bachelorette party in NYC (and not something I'd buy since I would only wear it for that occasion, so it was great to be able to rent it). Everyone loved it!

Cute and unique dress, but it runs VERY small!
I couldn't even get my normal size (4) on, and the backup size (6) was still too tight in the hips to be comfortable, let alone sit or wear it at a party for several hours. Thankfully I had another dress of my own that I could wear to my event, because I had to send this dress right back and didn't have time to rent another one. If you have hips or a butt at all, then I wouldn't recommend renting this dress. The positives of this dress are that the fabric feels nice, and the print is really unique.

Pretty color and more comfortable than I expected
I ordered this dress in Small and Medium. I'm a usual size 4, so I can usually get into a Small, but I could barely squeeze in to that size - and then once it was on, could barely move in it. I fit in the Medium well. Definitely size up when ordering a backup size for this dress! The color was pretty and it really does hold everything in with a very substantial fabric, so it doesn't feel quite as restricting. I didn't end up wearing this dress because the Medium had a huge stain all around the bottom of the back and the lower side of the dress - it looked like a huge grease stain or something. I contacted RTR right away and they fixed the situation so that I was able to get a replacement dress by 12pm the next day in time for my event.

I look like a sad ice skater in this dress.
The lace on this dress is really pretty, but the color and cut of the dress did nothing for me. I felt like it made me look like I was 15 years younger (in a bad way). I ordered this in a size 6 as a backup dress, since my first pick dress didn't have my backup size available. The 6 was way too big on me in the waist and shoulders, but I think the 4 (my normal size) may have fit. Thankfully my first pick dress worked out because this dress just wouldn't have worked for me for multiple reasons.

Perfect unique dress for a spring wedding!
I LOVE this dress! Such a unique, fun dress that is still nice enough for a traditional church wedding and evening reception. I got compliments from strangers all night long. It was a little large on me in the waist and shoulders, but I added a belt and it was just fine. I probably could have gone down a size and it would have fit perfectly. I was a little surprised (especially considering the price) when I received the dress that it is a very light cotton fabric - I was expecting something a little heavier, but because of the longer sleeves I wasn't too cold.

These earrings are stunning in person. Just the right size statement earrings - big enough, but not too big, and the gold and green are beautiful. Loved them!

Love this dress! Pretty, feminine, and light.
I ordered this dress as a back up for a formal charity event. I ended up wearing my first choice, but I really liked this one too and will probably order this one as my first choice for another event. It fits really well and is comfortable. I love the subtle green metallic color on the lace, and the skirt flows beautifully. I would say that the chest is pretty fitted, and not good for a larger busted woman. I have a fairly small bust and wasn't sure if I could even wear a strapless bra with it. The only con I found with the dress is that it is really difficult to zip over the part with the ribbon on the waist - this wasn't a fit issue, the zipper just was stuck on that part and was not easy at all to pull up.

Beautiful dress, but a little too uncomfortable and restricting for me.
I ordered this as a backup for a formal charity event. The size 4R zipped up (just barely), and my fiance loved how this one looked more than my first choice, but I could barely walk in it, let alone dance. So I went with my first choice dress instead of this one. It's very form fitted but the dress has a lot of support with thick material. I would say this dress probably isn't good for large-busted women. I have a small bust and couldn't even wear a strapless bra because it was so fitted. It does have built-in cups to keep everything in place, but is not padded or anything like that. Beautiful dress, but I'd probably order a size up if I decided to rent this again for another event.

Such a glamorous, flattering, and surprisingly comfortable dress for a formal charity event!
I LOVE this dress. It fit like a glove without being restricting or tight, and I was really surprised by how comfortable it was. Despite all the sequins it's not even very heavy, and I didn't find the sequins to be itchy. Super flattering cut, and I love the small train on the back. I'm 5'4" and wore about 4" inch heels, and the dress was the perfect length. I wish I could keep this dress!

Neither size fit me.
I ordered a 4 (my normal size) and a 6 for a backup. The 4 barely fit over my hips - I definitely have hips but nothing extreme by any means - I'm fairly petite so I was surprised that it was so tight. I was able to zip it up but it looked way too tight and it was uncomfortable to just stand, let alone be able to sit or dance at a wedding. The 6 fit well in the hips and waist, but the straps were so large that there was about a 2-3 inch gap between my shoulders and the straps. So needless to say, neither size looked or felt right on me. I had to run out and buy a last minute dress the day before the wedding. I think the dress would only work well for women with very slim hips and a larger bust. What I did like about the dress (even thought I couldn't wear it) is that the fabric was high quality and the color was really nice.
