Lovely dress for a family wedding
Love this dress. It seems simple but the pleats and drapey top are really special details. It's really pretty and soft. I recommend sizing up if you've got a bigger bust. My chest felt crushed in my typical size so I went with my backup and it was perfect.

Classic black dress
This dress is so comfortable and easy to wear - exactly why I picked it! I had rented it in blue before, and knew it would be perfect for a black-tie family wedding. Plenty of other stuff to fuss about, right? I docked a star for two reasons. One - I'm usually a two but this ran big. I wore the zero and it was still baggier than I would have liked in the waist. Two - good thing the zero fit better, because someone had hemmed the heck out of the two. It was several inches shorter than the zero, so watch out for that. Otherwise it was an awesome dress. I'm 5'6" and the regular length was perfect with three inch heels (but would have been way too short with the hem job on the two).

Classy, comfortable, perfect shade of green
This dress is unique yet classy, and so easy to wear. The dark green proved a great color for a winter wedding, and the knit fabric fit in well at the casual-cocktail reception. The dress is exceptionally comfortable. I wore a strapless bra with it and would recommend seamless undies, too. I docked a star because the gap in the back is large and it was a little annoying to keep shifting it so that my bra strap didn't show. Even still. I would consider buying this dress! Size down if you're between, this is TTS with a lot of stretch and you don't want the back gap shifting too much.

Very cute sweater
My fiancée loved this sweater. The twee stripes and pattern were perfect for the holidays. Very form fitting but not too tight or itchy.

Perfect holiday sweater
I wore this on Christmas while we were staying with my in laws. Sorry for the weird closeup, it's the only photo I have in it. At least you can see the true red color! It's very cute, not clingy but still fitted while being cozy. I have a long torso and the XS was still great.

Cute piece!
Wore it to dinner with my husband's sister's family who were in town. Cozy with an unexpected and somewhat revealing twist. A bit oversized. Docked a star for how much it moved around - needed to adjust to hide bra straps.

Comfortable, stylish standout
A friend gifted me a free month of Unlimited and this came in my first shipment. It's so unique and attractive but also very comfortable and not overly fancy. Wore it to a casual, post-work party at a friend's house with tights and boots.

Stylish and comfortable
A friend recently gifted me a free month of Unlimited and I chose this top for my first shipment. It's such a winner; I would have bought it if it wasn't still pretty pricey. The fabric is soft and cozy but the structure is fitted, with a flattering silhouette. Perfect with dark jeans in my biz-casual office. Typically wear a 2 or 4 and the Small fit great.

The perfect mix of cute and casual
I wore this to dinner and drinks during a girls weekend to celebrate a friend's birthday. It's very comfortable and cute, easy to wear and versatile. Lots of compliments, even suggestions that I buy it. Things to know: you can't really wear a bra, but you don't need to. Bigger chested girls should size up; its a bit tight in that area. Plenty of room around the hips though. I think I would would have worn an XS if it weren't for the chest tightness.

Gorgeous red dress
I rented this dress for a friend's wedding and loved it. TTS, and the most gorgeous true red color. The conservative length and neckline keep it from being too flashy. I felt very classy, especially in nude shoes/sparse accessories. As other reviews noted the one drawback is the neckline feels tight when you sit down. I got used to it but felt soreness on my shoulders/neck the next day. I tried on my backup size (4) but the issue persisted so I stuck with the 2. Slightly tight in the chest for bigger-busted girls. You could see strapless bra lines so I went without and used pasties (or whatever those things are called). Overall I'd rent again!

Form-fitting! Runs small
Definitely size up. I'm usually a 2 or 4 and the 4 fit but was quite tight - good for a night out but not much else. Surprisingly tight on the upper arms

I rented this as part of the Memorial Day promotion. Didn't end up having any reason to wear it but totally would have. Some gapping at the cutouts, but nothing major. Good, TTS fit

Beautiful dress, tight on chest
This dress is so pretty. Perfect for a spring party or anything engagement related. The straps are adjustable which ia a godsend. The midi length is great, though i think if you were short it might hit longer. I'm a 32D and found it tight across my chest. It ended up being fine (athough admittedly cleavage- heavy) with no bra.

Beautiful dress! Felt great in it
This dress was great! The color is bright - a hotter coral/pink than I expected, but it was perfect for a spring wedding. It hugs your curves without being scandalous, thanks to the neckline. I sized up significantly after reading the reviews and kind of wish I hadn't - the dress felt a little large in the waist, with plenty of extra fabric in the back (for reference I usually order a 2 and 4, but ordered a 6 and 8, wore the 6, would have probably liked the 4.) On the plus side it was very comfortable. At the end of the day I loved this dress and got lots of compliments on it. Pairs well with nude and gold accessories.

I like how simple it was, but how the slight chunkiness makes it a subtle statement. Would have preferred it to be a little less shiny, but what can you do?

This dress is stunning
If you're going to a black-tie event and wondering how to look both classy and sexy, look no further than this dress. It was my backup, and I ended up wearing it over a dress I'd bookmarked months ago; I'm so glad it happened that way. This dress is super comfortable and very flattering for hourglass figures. There's room in the top for bigger-chested girls; I didn't need a bra but decided to wear a strapless, backless stick-on for Target anyway for the security. The length was perfect for me, even with 3-inch heels. The size 2 came with store tags, so I think it was brand-new. I really can't rave about this enough. I got compliments for miles and several people said it was the best dress at the wedding. The best part, though, was I felt really good in it - and that's worth it, every time.

Pretty dress, but went with my back-up
I didn't end up wearing this to the black-tie wedding I rented it for. It was my original pick, but because my backup size (4R) was not available, they sent the Theia matte black halter dress with the cutout back and I fell in loooove with that. I'm giving this a 3 because it's very pretty and fit TTS, but it just wasn't as stunning in person as I'd hoped. The main issue is I'm a 32D and my boobs were kind of smushed. The arm straps were a bit restrictive; I couldn't lift my arms and felt like they'd be chafing after a few hours. Ultimately I felt better and more comfortable in my backup dress, but definitely rent this if you're smaller-chested and going for a really glam look!

Beautiful, elegant dress
What a beautiful dress. It's very flattering without seeming like it's trying too hard - an elegant, fluttery choice for an outdoor wedding in the Rocky Mountains. Lots of compliments and fun to spin around in on the dance floor. Some fit details: This runs small, especially in the bust. I usually wear a 2 or a 4, and the 6 was quite tight around my bust line. It ended up looking good that way, but my bigger-busted girls will definitely want to size up. I was able to squeeze a strapless bra in there, but by the end of the night I wanted my ribcage back. I wore higher heels than usual to keep the midi hemline; it was a little long otherwise. All in all, very happy with this rental and would recommend!

Elegant, sexy, fit like a glove
I love this dress. It's my favorite rental to date, and I wish I could keep it. Form fitting without being too snug - this dress was VERY comfortable. The cobalt is gorgeous and really stands out. I am usually not a petite size (I'm 5'6) but RTR was out of the 2 regular. Luckily, the length was great. You could see the toes of my heels but that was fine with me - less tripping while dancing! Very cute on us hourglass girls, as it really highlights the waist and booty. I would definitely recommend this dress.

Great shape, but dingy material
I didn't end up wearing this because an event was canceled; luckily I wasn't in love with this anyway. The shape is very flattering, especially for the booty, but the straps seem kind of cheap and flimsy, and the color seemed off and dingy.

Elegant, stunner of a dress, though not an ideal fit
I loved wearing this dress. It's a stunner - so elegant and classy and lovely - but simple enough that you can wear it in a sea of knee-length cocktail dresses and not feel overdressed (this was my experience, as I wore it to a wedding that was not black tie). I'm a sucker for a green dress, and the color did not disappoint. It would have been a perfect-rating dress, but I had to knock off a star for the fit. I typically wear a size 2 in dresses, but sometimes a 2 will be tight around my hips/derrier, and I'll go up to a 4. This dress in a 2 had plenty of room around my hips, but was very tight around the bust, and wouldn't zip.. In the end I felt good in the 4, but it was not an ideal fit - loose around the waist and hips. If you are a busty 0 or 2, definitely size up. The length was good for me.

Loved this for New Year's Eve
This was my first RTR dress! I rented it for a New Year's Eve party and was very satisfied. I wanted something sexy but not super flashy, and this delivered. It's quite curve-hugging, and the bust is more revealing than I expected, but the darker shade of red and the cap sleeves keep things classy. One recommendation: The sleeves sat better when I wore a strapless bra. I felt great and got a lot of compliments. Would definitely recommend for a special night out.
