Little Black Dress With Sparkle!
Saw this dress on ShopBop and became obsessed and then saw it on RTR it was a sign I needed to rent it for something! Well lucky for me I had a rehearsal dinner and it was the perfect dress. Literally 10 girls came up loving the dress asking where I got it! I am VERY short myself and the dress fell above my knees so I guess on an average height lady it might be a little short but it did fit like a glove and it felt effortlessly chic. If you want a little black dress with some sparkle you cannot go wrong!

Picture does not do justice
I rented for a black for wedding. Based on reviews I rented a size 2 and the smaller size was not available but I thought I was fine (based on the reviews) I was wrong. The dress was baggy on me. I am petite - 5ft and 95 pounds. The dress was long not floor length but almost, which I was going for since it was black tie. The issue was that someone who previously rented must of ripped the slit and RTR had altered it but due to the heavy fabric the fix did not stay and within about a half an hour the stitching started to come undone. Besides that issue the dress was really stunning and the picture on the model really doesn't do it justice, I didn't find it uncomfortable probably because it was a bit too big on me.

Gorgeous Dress but VERY tight!
I am 5ft 100 pounds and this dress was very tight around my back. It was my back up dress for a wedding, if I needed to I could of worn it but I don't think I would be too comfortable dancing the whole night. Length wise it was great for a shorter person I tried it on with 4 inch heels.

Classy and Sexy little black dress
The material was thicker which I liked due to being in a cold room but nothing where you would be sweating in it. It hugs your curves even though the material was thicker than I thought. It was my favorite dress I rented that weekend.

Really cute but a little large
This dress was big on me and it looked awkward because I also think it was a tad too long for someone my height with the skirt of the dress poofing out I just couldn't pull it off being 5 feet. The armpit area was a little itchy. Saying all of that it was really really cute I wish it would of fit me better. It was my second choice for an engagement shoot.

Show stopper for a black dress!
Sometimes a black dress can get lost in the crowd but this dress really stood out with the beautiful shoulder and the way the fabric overlaps made me look like I had a little bit more of an hourglass figure. I am 5 ft so renting long dresses is a big struggle, the train was a little long and i was wearing 5 inch heels a couple times my fiancé tripped on it while dancing but most of the night it was fine I did have to hold it up while walking but that would be my only con. I only have a black and white picture on my phone (sorry) but it was elegant (I wore this for a super fancy black tie wedding) and made me feel sexy!

Sexy and chic
I rented this for a bar mitzvah that was "club" attire. I was not sure if it was country club attire or Club "dance club" attire. I turned out to be dance club attire and this dress was perfect. I feel like it could of fit either way with the right accessories. the sleeves were a little big and during the night the dress got more loose but I felt so sexy and chic in this outfit and it was an overall great fit!

Perfect fit for a short girl and WOW sexy and classy!!
This dress was sent to me because my first choice back up size came damaged. My first choice did not fit but even if It did I don't think I would wear it because this one fit like a glove! Being short having to rent a long dress can be SCARY, but it was the perfect length and I loved it sexy and classy!! The only thing was the arm/shoulder was a tad big and would slide down a bit nothing some fashion tape couldn't fix but I did not have any on me.

Cute, but not WOW enough
Very cute, fit well. You need a bra for this as the fabric is thin. It fit well I wore high heels (5 inches) and it still was on the floor but not too long. I did not wear it, I rented it as a back up dress. Cute but did not WOW enough like my other option.

did not love this dress. I originally picked out another dress but it was ripped so they sent me this one I guess that was similar to my other one. I did not like the design of the sequins but the other park was kind of cool. It was a little long on me and the way the sleeve is cut was very unusually. I have worn a lot of cap sleeves and shoulder pads before but the way it was cut it didn't fit on my shoulders and you cant adjust well because the neck is very high. It wasn't a totally bad dress it just wasn't my style. I rented a dress by him that was great its the black one with the cap sleeve and it amazing!

I ordered the small because the xs wasn't available and it was a little too big (straps falling off, not tight) so if you are petite go for the smaller size! This dress was super sexy, short and it is PERFECT for us short gals! Although the dress was great I don't think it is worth 200, I know it is Herve but if I am paying 200 to rent a dress I expect a little more from the dress.

Really liked this dress very sexy but I was very nervous about renting a white dress but nothing got on it (I spray tan). The dress was longer than I thought it would be it was almost to my knees but I also am very short (5'0). Also it does not show in the picture that on the chest top part of the dress there are these detailed fabric thing hanging off of it ( can't describe it well). I suggest renting this dress since it is now $35!

This romper was perfect for my night on the town! Not to dressy not to casual which was great since I went to a nice place for dinner then out later on. The shorts were a little longer then I thought so I wore a little belt with it so raise it up. Also I have a very small chest and the way it zips I fit perfectly and just fit my chest so warning to girls who have bigger chests the bust is going to be very snug.

WISH I WAS ABOUT 6 INCHES TALLER!!! this dress was so pretty but I was too short to wear it! I am VERY short! I read the reviews about needing to be tall to wear it but I didn't care I thought I might as well give it a try since I got a 2ed back up dress for free! This dress was not made for petite girls, the zipper scrunched up in the back because my body wasn't long enough and made me look like I had a hunched back ! The boob part of the dress was also not in the right spot so I kind of looked deformed. The dress itself was so beautiful and a lot dressier then I thought (great for black tie!). If you are tall, rent this dress!

I ordered two sizes and they both fit well ended up wearing the smaller because I wanted it tighter since my bust is small. Thought it might be a boring dress but I actually loved it like all my other rtr rentals.

I am on the smaller/shorter side so I don't think this dress fit right because of that factor. It has shoulder pads and they kept falling off my shoulders and the open back was very open I kept having to fix it. On the plus side it is very comfortable and the bottom of the dress is tighter like the pictures shows. I really liked this dress but can't say it was one of my rtr favorites.

I LOVED this dress! I was at the time currently between two sizes xs/s (have a bigger butt) so zipping it around that area took a little push but besides that the arms holes were a little annoying but by 20 mins of wearing it was very very comfortable. I thought it was a little more yellow when I looked at the pictures it is more green. Everyone loved it and I loved it so this dress was a winner!

Inside is a very comfy material I loved it one of my favorite rents on RTR! I wore it with black tights and pumps. The only bad thing I can say is that is was a little tight under the armpits but got more comfortable as I wore it.
