On trend prairie vibes

Fits loose but cinches nicely at the waist. Might overwhelm a petite person. Great length for tall girls. Subtle high-low hemline. Cotton wrinkles easily but would be super comfortable in hot weather. Got loads of complements!

Just alright

Cute summer dress that got the job done, not a stand out though. Had a bit of a paper bag feel but that didn't bother me. Need to wear skin tone underwear, it is a bit see through otherwise.

Cute, but not the most flattering

I liked this dress. I'm a sucker for an LWD! I ordered a medium, which is my size, and I think I may have been able to size down. However, the dress came with a belt which allowed me to since the waist to my liking. However, overall I felt a bit like the Michelin man, so not my favorite dress of all time!

Cute but runs big

I normally wear a small but I guess RTR only had a medium at the time so I gave it a try. It was swimming on me, even with the belt. I really like this dress though and would try to rent in an x-small. I would size down.

Beautiful details

I wear this dress repeatedly and received compliments every time. It was great on vacation with comfortable sandals and great for work with a dressy heeled sandal. Flattering on my apple-shaped body.

Great casual dress for everyday.

The fit was great - fits more like a LG than XL. Enjoyed wearing it to the office.

Definitely not a super flattering dress but honestly, I received compliments!

This dress is a big old sheet of fabric but once tied, it looks cute. The back is a bit more open than I had hoped to wear to work but I wore my hair down. It would not look good on anyone that is under 5'8...it is just too much fabric to wear. Not my fave but as I said above, I did get compliments!

Not that cute :/

This dress definitely looks better in person than it does in photos, but overall there are so many gorgeous dresses to rent on RTR you should pass on this one.

Strange fit

No matter how I styled it, it just fit weird...like a balloon that I couldn't control. Length was good and it "fit" but I felt it was too voluminous for my small frame. Even with a different belt.
