Such a comfortable dress!

I rented this for a family member's wedding, and it was perfect! The wedding was pretty formal, and this dress was elegant enough and so, so comfortable to wear. It fit perfectly, even through the bust (I'm a 36G), with plenty of breathing room. The lace overlay is gorgeous - more than I was expecting from the photos! I was able to wear a regular black bra without it looking weird, and just added a black cardigan for warmth. I would definitely rent this dress again!

Birthday dinner with the girls!

I rented this dress for an early 30th birthday celebration with my best girlfriends, and it was definitely a great dress for the occasion! The colors, cut, and fabric are all beautiful. I have to agree with other reviewers that this dress is quite low-cut, but this didn't really bother me. One major drawback, however, was the fact that this dress runs VERY small. I usually wear an 18, but needed the 22 in this dress for it to fit through the waist. If you don't carry as much of your weight in your waist, you may not have to size up as much, though. I had plenty of room in the bust (I'm a 36G) and hip areas. The other major drawback for me was the price of the dress. Although it was a gorgeous dress, I'm not sure I would rent it again unless the price dropped. It was a fun dress to wear, though!

It just wasn't long enough!

I rented this to go with a dress that I was renting for my husband's firefighter training graduation. It just wasn't long enough for me, though. I tried putting a chain extender on it, but I would have needed two (a total of 7" extra) to get it near the length that I wanted, and at that point it just looked strange because the beads didn't wrap around my neck at all. This would probably work really well for someone who either has a smaller frame, or wants a necklace that fits very close to the neck.

Cute dress for husband's graduation!

This is the first time that I've rented from RtR, so I was kind of nervous about it, but I ended up being very happy with my dress! I ordered this for my husband's firefighter training graduation, and paired it with gray tights, brown boots, and a mint green necklace. The fit is very flattering, and it was a good length for my 5'5 height. I was very glad that I read through previous reviews before selecting my sizes. Going by my measurements and the size chart for this designer, I would have ordered a 20. However, based on the reviews I decided to go with an 18 (my usual dress size) and a 16, and I ended up wearing the 16. I would also note that I think the color was a darker, truer blue than in the model picture online. I still liked it very much though, and would definitely rent this dress again for a similar event!
