Perfect dress for spring
Medium/Large usually though I find most brands on RTR I'm fine in a large. I'm small up top so need a bra to fill out the bustier top but can also see where a very blessed gal may struggle.

cute but comes untied
Fits true to size and is so cute with a variety of bottoms. The bottom tie periodically comes undone which is annoying.

It’s fine. Cute enough. Runs large. Didn’t wear it because it felt very blah.

Not flattering
Fit was fine, true to size. But as with many ivory/white pants, fabric clung in all the wrong places, and the overall fit was not cute even from the front. Pockets in front are not functional and contributes to the look being unflattering.

Great Pant
Despite being on the larger side, these were so comfortable and very flattering. I wore with a white button down as well as a waist-dusting cropped tee and both looks for rave reviews, and I felt put together and comfortable at the same time - the holy grail combo. Do size down.

Wanted to love
I wanted to love this but the empire waist is cut in a strange, semi-circle kind of way. I wore a denim jacket over my shoulders and it disguised it but wish it was more flattering at the waist.

I sized up in this bc I have a long torso and it worked out perfectly. The camp top leaned into oversized nature of the size up and I truly debated buying this!

Such a cute silhouette but the top portion is lined and the bottom isn't.. and is quite sheer, along with the lining up top being very evident.

Too Conservative
Fit is perfect, but even with accessories was verrrry conservative. I ended up feeling like I was in a religious cult and choosing something else for a dinner out.

I rented this not realizing it was shiny and spandex-y… that, plus the print, is not my style. There’s a place for it for sure, but beware that it can lean a little cheapy feeling.

Strange fit
I wanted to wear this so badly for a fun birthday dinner but the proportions just didn’t work for me. I’m hippy to begin with, but where the flare on this hit was a no-go. The fabric is slinky knit, which is gorgeous and a deep black, and the ruffles on the bottom are structured, which has a lot of potential. Sadly a no-go and just couldn’t reco for others.

LOVE
I love this sweater and seriously considered buying it. It’s PERFECT for a variety of occasions. I wore for work (above), my partner’s birthday dinner and casually. It is a little scratchy as others have said, but despite usually being really sensitive to fabrics, this one didn’t bother me at all. If you like it, you’ll love it.

Cute!
Cute and fit well, not exactly my style, but I knew that before ordering, as I’m trying to brand out. The black in it makes it feel overly contrast-y with the jungle print, but overall a cute, really comfy dress for every day.

Hated to send back
Loved this dress! Usually by the time I get to these, they’ve been shrunk so short in the cleaning process. This one arrived with tags and it was glorious - short but glorious. Wore to dinner with friends with flats and got so many compliments. I’d say if you’re renting it near March 2025, and you’re a tall gal, you may be ok before it gets too shrunken in length from cleaning. If I could guarantee it would be the same length, it would be on heavy rotation!

Great Romper
I usually struggle with FR rompers as I have a long torso and wider hips/thighs. This one was perfect! Long enough and the legs were wide enough. Fabric was a bit scratchy but overall would wear again - definitely contemplated buying it with the 40% off promo running!

Size down a full size! They're cute and flowy, which makes up for them being a bit sheer. Fairly long, and I'm 5'9.

Great Dress & So Flattering
As you can see I wore for a party for Palm Royale - it was outside in the Florida heat and this dress stood the test! While the dress was only slightly warm, it maintained its shape and was very airy. Fit true to size and a good length for a tall gal!

Great Silhouette But Sheer
Following others’ comments, I sized down. I wish I hadn’t. While the silhouette was cute, my normal size would’ve been better and worn. I probably could’ve pulled off the smaller size but it made the already sheer linen even more so on my bum. Would def order again in the right size.

LOVE this dress
As I stare at the “en route to RTR” label I’m wondering if I didn’t make a mistake not buying this dress. While the image makes the sleeve look wonky, it’s a beautiful dress with a statement sleeve. It’s wildly comfortable, well made and subtlely detailed. True to size and while the top is elasticized, there is a zip up the ribcage that might need to be considered if you go up or down a size. I will definitely rent this again. And maybe buy it so I don’t feel so sad sending it back!

It’s fine
Cute top. It’s fine. Put it on for an unexpected quick dinner at the neighborhood sushi spot. Felt a little more “put together” than everyday. It’s not great, not bad. Print is cute. I think if it had been worn less or cared for differently it might be better than fine.

The best dress
This dress carried me thru dinner with my almost-in-laws, officiating my brother’s wedding, and a few other nights out. I took the large for it to be flowy, but probably could’ve done a medium as well. I loved the way it fit and had it been slightly less to buy I’d have kept it forever

Just not quite right
At 5’9”, I knew I was taking a risk with this dress. It’s very short, and not particularly flattering. I found the sleeves very puffy and out of balance, and the bodice was very narrow. High hopes, but a miss.

So much potential…
Like many men I’ve dated, this dress has so much potential but was just a total miss. The cut of the arms was so high, and the band of chartreuse at the bottom made for a widening break. A belt didn’t help, in part because none of the myriad colors I had made for a good match.

So flattering!
When I took the dress from the bag I was a little worried about the sleeves being flattering. Fear not - the whole dress is flattering. I’m in a strange stage size-wise and this was so pretty, cut so nicely, and the ruffles are pretty without being too much. The length is perfect and my legs with nude heels looked a million miles long!

Great overall size, short-waisted
Loved this piece and got many compliments. As a 5’10” woman I got my typical romper size 10 (size up from my dress size - team thick thighs!) and found it was a bit short-waisted - it was doable for a casual day lunch but more than that I’d have felt self-conscious and be constantly pulling the shorts down.
