Showstopper!
This is a GREAT dress... super comfortable and flattering, but also very eye-catching.

Sexy and sophisticated!
Great dress. Loved that it was a little unusual with the tie neckline and exposed shoulders and back. The embroidery is a very bright blue and eye-catching. The stretch in the material made it very comfortable to wear. Heed the other reviews that it is quite short. I was comfortable wearing tights with it and it made for a cute winter date night look.

Spectacular dress!
I loved this dress. The quality was amazing and the condition was perfect. The tie at the neck and the fluttery asymmetrical hem were so unusual. I'm only 5'2", so I needed 4" heels to make the length work, but you can also "blouse" the dress a bit at the waist and shorten it about an inch.

Great detail and color!
Beautiful dress with lots of detail and I loved the color! I wore it one night for a casual dinner with a jean jacket and then for a fundraiser the next night. I think it's hard for RTW to keep these intricate dresses in pristine shape and up close the lace definitely had some wear. Really comfortable and unique with the asymmetrical hem. I was concerned it would be too long (I'm 5'2", but it worked great even with just a small heel.

Great color and fit!
Loved this! It was unique, colorful, comfortable and well-made. I received compliments all night. As more of a plus-size girl, I don't always feel comfortable in a designer cocktail dress, but this was perfectly cut for my size and looked really great.

Unique and colorful!
This was a GREAT dress - beautiful detail and very comfotable to wear. You'll definitely stand out in this one. The length was great on me, but I'm 5'2" - taller ladies may find it a little short.

Nice quality, runs small.
I didn't end up wearing this dress because it runs very small and didn't fit. The quality and style of it are beautiful.

Cute and flirty!
The fit and fabric of this dress are great! Beautiful quality! The only downside of this dress is that it's VERY short! I wore this to dinner on vacation, but for any other circumstance, may have wanted leggings.

Gorgeous embroidery! Fun and flirty for summer. Be forewarned - quite short, even for a petite girl like me.

Best dress I've ever rented!
So sorry I don't have a photo of this on - pretty, sexy, professional! Got a million compliments. The color is beautiful and the bottom ruffle gives it flair. If you're full figured, be prepared for this to be body hugging. I liked that look, but may not be for everyone.

Unique DVF wrap!
I own a few DVF wraps, as well as having rented a few. They're a great look, albeit a little hard to wear (always adjusting!). This one is super unique and chic in chambray! Got tons of compliments!

Cute for summer!
This was a sweet little dress with a fun pattern! My only issue was that it was missing two buttons. It was still wearable, but be sure to take a look when it arrives, as I think they must fall off easily. Also, with this color, it was fairly transparent - I worn a nude slip under it.

Lovely for spring...
Rented this for a baby christening and it was great for a conservative, but festive event. It was a little boxy and worked better with a belt. But the pattern was unique and eye catching. Be warned - I got a little water on it and it left a mark. I'm sure it'll come out with dry cleaning, but the fabric was more delicate than I prefer.

Nice color, hard to wear
Ordered this for a charity dinner. Loved the color, should have worn a smaller size - there just seemed like too much fabric and I was constantly playing with the rucheing and neckline to get it right. The fabric of this wasn't as nice as other B-M dresses that I've worn.

Fun dress to wear for a charity dinner! The neoprene fabric makes it comfy, but hides nothing - be comfortable with your curves to wear this.

Cute for spring!
Loved the a-line shape and the buttons! Great to mix up your coat wardrobe for spring. Excellent quality trench. Arm holes run a little small.

Pretty color, funny shape.
The beading and fabric of this dress are lovely, but the tulip shape didn't work for me at all. It also runs small and the box pleats didn't lay flat. I'd inly recommend this for a slim petite woman.

Add a little sparkle
Rented these for a black tie dinner... I broke out the set and wore a few bracelets on each arm, which was cute. They're not super well made and they'll shed beads all night.

Pretty enough
This is a pretty dress but nothing terribly special. The color really pops and was good for a day at work, but I wouldn't do it for a wedding or evening event.

Gorgeous material and pattern
This was a beautiful jacket, but I couldn't wear it because it runs small. I was able to get it on but my arms looked stuffed in it and opted not to. Too bad it doesn't size up to a 14 - I'd order it again!

Great jumpsuit for a curvy figure!
I've been dying to rent a jumpsuit, but as a larger size short girl I was hesitant. I read the reviews on this though and thought I'd give it a try. So glad I did - this was beautiful! And very comfortable. I'm very busty which I think helped to fill it out. I was also worried it'd be too long (I'm 5'2"), but I wore 3" heels and it was perfect. It's formal-ish, but also understated - was good for a casual birthday date with my boyfriend and I plan to accessorize it conservatively and wear it to work tomorrow.

I love this dress and wish I could buy it. Super unique, cute style. Neoprene fabric makes it very comfortable. As other reviewers said, a little itchy at seams, but nothing unbearable.

Great for spring!
Cute bag with ample pockets. Great color! I hate when bags have two handles, so I removed the shoulder strap, but the handles are short. On my bag the zipper toggle was missing, but it was still totally usable.

Gorgeous full length that works for petites!
This dress was gorgeous! The fabric was stretchy and comfortable - I ate a huge meal at a black tie affair and it was perfect for that. The ruching is in just the right place if you are concerned about your stomach area. I am fairly short and was concerned that even the petite would be too long, but it was right to the floor and worked with small heels.

Thrilled with this look!
This is an awesome dress - unique, sexy, well-made, and comfortable. What more could you want! Agreed with some reviewers that you'll feel like the shoulders will come down, but they won't. Also, I ordered a different dress first that was too small and looked terrible on. The RTR stylists were GREAT in getting me a replacement right to my hotel on time for the event.

Wore this to a formal work dinner.
Dress was beautiful and the quality was exceptional. I loved the option of having the second size. I ordered the 14 and 16 based on previous reviews that it ran small and that was great advice. Overall, the RtR experience was super convenient and well organized. Lots of compliments on the dress and my SO loved the open back - quite sexy!
