Super cute and comfortable dress. If you're wanting to wear it to work, be warned the slit goes very high up.

You will turn heads

Love this dress and will rent it again. The high slit is only for the brave at heart. It's positioned in the perfect spot for walking down windy streets of New York City but you will turn heads so be sure to 'own it'. Has zipper issues. Needed help pulling down and it wasn't the fit.

Flattering fit

For a larger chest—this dress works. It was flattering for a large size. It did not hug tight to my stomach but also wasn’t shapeless.

Could be really great

I wore this to an evening work event. Loved the material, classy collared look and shape. For was flattering except the top does a strange bulge and buttons don’t align. I had to pin the seam to make it look normal. Slit is high on thigh of you need more coverage this is not th dress.

Cute dress, high slit!

Looooved the fit of this dress, but it is unfortunately not quite work appropriate because it has a very high slit (even for the short girls!). Other than that, loved it!

This dress was comfortable, fit great, and I was planning to wear it to work until I realized the slit was unnecessarily high. Bummer.

Great dress, high slit, weird twist

Loved this dress though the slit is to high when sitting to wear to work but great for date night. The buttons and fabric at chest are a little weird but didn’t keep me from wearing and being overly happy with the dress.

Classic with a high slit

This was a great dress. I liked the fit, the cut and the material. The slit was unexpectedly high for a work dress so keep that in mind if you’re renting for work!

Navy linen dress

Wore to a more casual rehearsal dinner. Would be great for work or elevated with heels. I added a belt to give my waist a better shape. It was a little baggy in the wait but tight on the hips. Very wearable and flattering though. Just something I would get altered if I kept.

Business on top, party on bottom

The slit made this dress inappropriate for church and work, but it was too boring for a night out. I still wore it to church and work, but needed a scarf to cover my lap whenever I sat down.

Team RTR Review

This is a great dress for work. I am wearing a size 4 and would size up next time. The dress has an unexpected side zipper which makes the area around the hip/waist tight. Also, the slit is a bit higher than expected. Other than that, the fabric and construction is high quality! Perfect for the office.

Ill fitting top

This dress fit very strangely in the bust. There seems to be an issue with the bottom button lining up properly. It was also very baggy in the chest - may work better for fuller busts. I loved the fabric though! The slit was a bit high.

The buttons are off.

The lowest button on the dress is off. Causing a pocket, potentially causing a view for those seated next to me.

Great dress

Once I got the right size, this dress was a 10/10! It was perfect for a work lunch, and fit was spot on. I’m petite and the length was just right with a 2.5” heel.

Soft linen is perfect for warm weather, and I loved the extra material round the bust. Slit on the leg was a little too high when sitting. Luckily, I was standing most the day
