Perfect dress for a postpartum mama
I didn't want anything "fitted" because I am 40 pounds’ overweight from my pregnancy (9 weeks’ postpartum. I weigh in around 188 now instead of the 147 listed) which leaves me feeling really insecure and this dress worked out perfectly!!! I felt like it was the only dress on the RTR website that was "loose fitting" (that I haven't already rented, lol). It was flattering and I didn't feel like I was wearing a paper bag or a pillowcase. It was perfectly loose and covered all the extra baby weight nicely. I ordered a 12 & 10 ...I ended up wearing the 10. The dress does run larger than most dresses to here on RTR (I've come to find most dresses on here run super small!). But the color is dark navy blue and I wore it with some nude peep toe pumps. Sorry I don't have a picture to share! Enjoy!

Never worked out
The large was too small for me and I'm a size 6 dress size for the most part. Strange.

Love, loved this shift dress
I went up a couple of sizes because of the reviews. Glad I did because I wore the 12 & it fit perfectly around my 9 week preggers stomach & hips. I'm a hippy person to begin with & was nervous - glad it fit! So comfortable and cute. I felt very confident and classy. Wasn't tight when I sat down either. The sleeves are so much fun!

Pretty green & blue shift dress w/necklace
I was really nervous to rent a dress that I've never tried on before. Especially not knowing if it will fit until the day you leave town! I have an athletic built with wide hips, thick thighs and a small waist- so a lot of things never fit me properly in the right spots. I almost rented a size 6 & 8, but I decided to go with the an 8 & 10. Good thing because the size 8 wouldn't even fit around my hips!!! The size 10 was way too big for my waist but fit my hips perfectly and it was a little too small in the sleeve area, a bit tight. If I lifted my arms the dress would show my underwear, Oy! The sleeves run realllly small and the dress is pretty short. But overall it was a pretty dress. I also rented that necklace with the dress which matched perfectly.

I love it, I got a lot of compliments- but it got tangled up ALOT which made it annoying.
Pro: pretty, not heavy. Con: tangles up 95% of the time.
