Too revealing
While this may be okay for some, I thought the dress was too revealing up top to be comfortable enough to wear out. While I'm pretty true to a size 8, this one was snug in the middle section.

Smaller side
I rented this for a rehearsal dinner and I didn't feel comfortable in it. I suggest sizing up as it is very fitted.

Too Small
I tried wearing this for a work function. I'm typically a size 8 and it was way too small. I'm larger in the shoulders/arms and the dress was extremely tight up top. I suggest sizing up unless you have a smaller chest/arms.

Awesome romper
I wore this for several day time events and loved it. It was light weight and comfortable. Received many compliments. The only bad thing was that it is a tad short so I wore flats with it.

Great little white dress
I wore this for a birthday party and received many compliments. I know this brand runs small so I wore the 8 and it was still a bit tight in the hips. This dress is very short and kind of boxy. I think that it would fit best on someone with narrow hips/chest.

Perfect date dress
I wore this for my birthday dinner and loved it. The material is stretchy making it super comfortable. I wore the 6 and it fit well. I could have worn an 8 as well but it would have been too loose on the top. Great for day to night!

Not the right fit
I rented this to wear to a daytime shower, and it was a little bit too fancy for the occasion. It was also a bit revealing as the top was quite tight and low cut. I would have worn it out to a party, but wasn't right for my occasion.

Unique jumpsuit!
This was a backup to another dress I rented. While I loved how different it was, I didn't end up wearing it. Would definitely rent again for a fun night out!

Delicate and original.
I wore this for my Bridal Shower and loved it. I received so many compliments and it felt so special to wear it. The flowers on the dress are so intricate and feminine. The dress runs large so I recommend sizing down.

Fun shift dress!
I wore this for a night out in Las Vegas. It is pretty short but conservative on the top. Loved the open back and color. Great to throw on and go!

Easy to wear!
Wore this for my first night out in Las Vegas. It was very easy to wear and comfortable. The shorts are shorter than expected and they wrinkled after sitting down for dinner. Overall great romper!

Unique and trendy.
I rented this dress for a friends bridal shower. It was easy to wear and the fabric was light. I suggest sizing down as I even had room to spare in the 6. The high to low hemline was fun and different.

Too tight to wear
I rented this for a dinner and it was way too tight. Got the 8 and couldn't wear it. I'd size up for sure.

Fun and comfy!
Wore this for my bachelorette party and everyone loved it! The medium was great, but when I went into the store I tried on a brand new size medium and it was super tight. So I'd size up if anything. The Ruffles are awesome for hiding the stomach area!

Non traditional white dress.
Wore this for the first night of my bachelorette. Love how different and delicate it is. I'm usually a 6/8 and the 8 was too large. I had to tie the straps up and that seemed to do the trick.

Fun floral dress!
This dress was a lot of fun to wear because of the way the skirt was structured. Like the other reviews, this dress runs very small on the top. I usually wear a size 8, and I could not fit into the 8 in the dress. I wore the 10, and it was a pretty good fit. I would definitely recommend this dress to someone with a smaller top.

A beautiful stand out!
I rented this dress for a Spring Gala. The color is vibrant and stands out among the crowd. I loved the detailing on the top, very feminine yet different. I am usually a size 8, but as past reviewers stated, the hip area was too small for me to fit in the 8. The 8 was tight in the hips, but fit perfectly everywhere else. I felt more comfortable in the 10, even thought it was a bit loose in the waist. I recommend sizing up unless you have a smaller lower half. All in all, a great dress and an even better evening!

I wore this dress for my housewarming party, and was comfortable all night!
This Tibi dress was so comfortable and stylish. I wore it for my housewarming party and truly felt like the hostess with the "most-est". Thank you RTR for helping my party go off without a glitch!
