Got lots of compliments on this funky dress. Someone called me Li Saumet from "Bomba Estereo" in it and I was sold. It's definitely oversized, but looks really cute with a belt on it. Can be dressed up or down. I wore it to a rehearsal dinner at a destination wedding, and it was just right. 

Loved this fit, but it definitely felt big and kaftan-like on me without a belt. Loved the belt pairing, it made for an effortlessly chic look.

Wore this for a music festival in LA. So many compliments. I’ve rented it before and dressed it up with a vintage gold snake belt and heels- highly diverse. Will rent again. 

Loooove the over-size fit of this dress. Looked casual in tennis shoes or dressy when belted. A fun, repeat wear, rental.

Very nice colors. Runs large. Belt is much needed. 5’6” 185 lbs.

Last minute add and didn’t expect much but the print was beautiful, the fabric lightweight, and lots of compliments. 29wks pregnant, 34D, 175-180lb here and plenty of room in size small

Love this dress. I wore it at home, bday party, and on a girls trip to Mexico. My favorite breakfast-coffee outfit. 

Wasn't entirely sure about this one, but I'm glad everyone else confirmed. Wore to work with belt and had tons of compliments and then with sandals and no belt for other events and had the same reaction. Yes, I bought it!

The material isn’t as lightweight as the other Carolina dress I love. The sleeves were a little poofy. 

Absolutely loved this dress. The bold prints, the pockets! It definitely needs a belt. Material is cotton and a though there is a lot of it, it packed easily for my trip (strictly carry on only over here!). 

Compliment magnet. XS wasn’t available but small was good fit too. Wore to work then dinner. Will rent again before summer’s end for sure. Would  transition nicely into Fall. 

This runs big, vibrant colors. Can dress up with heels or dress it down with sneaks. I would wear it belted as it's pretty shapeless with no belt. Not too much fabric. Must be ironed.

It’s just a big fit. Make sure you have a belt! 

Oversized on purpose, I’ve worn belted and non, looks great either way. Easiest nightgown feel with bold fashion style and makes you instantly look pulled together for a working breakfast after a few too many cocktails at a business trip dinner ;)

Lots of fabric didn't photograph great, even with belt but tons of people seemed to love it judging by the compliments! Wore to work and day time event. 

I recently rented the Valerie pleated kaftan by Carolina K in a medium, and I must say, the reviews were right - this dress is HUGE! I was concerned about downsizing and having a tight chest, but that wasn't the case at all. I could have easily gone for a small. However, when I belted it, the extra fabric didn't bother me, and it actually looked great. The bright and fun pattern, along with the puffed sleeves and multicolored buttons, added some interesting details to the dress and made it so much fun to wear. It was incredibly comfortable, and I felt  pretty in it. I would not hesitate to rent this dress again! Follow me on IG for more RTR reviews! @lesliedillon

Really thought i could pull it off in the oversized caftan kind of way but just ended up feeling kinda circus tent-y. Also tried it with a belt and it wasn’t bad, but took away from the overall design. 

I absolutely loved this dress. I wore it twice with different belts and shoes to dress it up and down. I found it so fun and versatile for work or date night! I did size down to XS which would not normally fit me so I could see how this would be way too huge for someone petite! I’m 5’7” and the length was perfect.
