Loved this look! Did have to do a little ironing to get it ready to go but it held up in extreme southern humidity.

Fun Everyday Dress

This was probably the wrong time of year to rent this, but I couldn’t get much else in my size. The weather, however, cooperated for me to wear it. It is lightweight, needs to be ironed or steamed, and has a separate liner that attaches with snaps at the shoulders. The Dress does have belt loops, so i am unsure what was supp to go through them, but other than that it was great.

Beautiful print!

I rented this dress for really hot days (90+ degrees) so I could still look professional in the office but feel comfortable during my commute :) I feel like LK Bennet generally is running a bit small, so I went with 4 (UK 8) and it was perfect. Received many complements every time I wore this dress.

Unique print!

This print is adorable and perfect for Miami. However, I found the slip to be extremely annoying - seems someone sewed it in and I had difficulties getting in and out of the dress. Also, the slip with it's added material made it much hotter than I anticipated especially for this time of year. Has great deep pockets and added my own belt as others mentioned it has belt loops.

Classic but see-through

I got many compliments on this at a couple of different Beach work events over the summer, but I had to buy a slip/underdress for it, because it was too see-through to wear on its own.

Unique Piece!

Wore this for a work conference. At first I thought the belt was missing, because it has two belt loops, but I looked back at other photos and noticed most people added their own belt. I tried a few options but decided no-belt looked best on me. The arms were a bit snug, because I have muscular arms, but there was some give in the fabric so it wasn’t uncomfortable. Slightly difficult to iron, a steamer would have been helpful, because it does wrinkle easily.

Great dress for warm weather travel

I have packed this dress for two trips now. It is a little bulky, because the skirt is fully lined, but it is worth the extra space for its charm and practicality. This is a great, lightweight, fit and flare shirt dress. I love that the collar and sleeves and length keep it more conservative- great for travel in certain more reserved countries. Yet it still feels comfortable, light and stylish. I love the deep pockets. The fabric is a light cotton with seashells all over it. While the color palette reads fall, it is definitely a spring/summer dress.

she sells seashells down by the seashore

I loved the pattern on this dress, and the cotton fabric is very airy. i wore this in late September on a rainy day, so i styled it with boots and a heavy belt. this dress has belt loops but no belt (i called rtr to make sure) and the waist is more of a princess waist, so adding a belt at natural waist leaves a bit of the skirt popping out above the belt. also, the cotton skirt sticks to itself, so I recommend a slip.

It’s seashells, runs small

Pretty dress. Seashells though, not butterflies as listed in description. No pockets. It’s cotton, but not breezy due to slip, that must be worn due to see through nature of dress. Didn’t like it as much as I hoped. Felt like it made me look thick. I ordered up and glad I did, a 6 would have been tight in my shoulders.

Material Wrinkles Easily

This was a nice summer dress. I think I just didn’t love it because it looked bad on me color wise. Oh but, bring an iron. Tailored on the top, trashed on the bottom.

Not super flattering

Pros: the print, vintage-y feel with the buttons, length, separate slip so you don’t get tangled Cons: kind of an odd cut/ silhouette, wrinkles easy.

Very flattering I wore it with the first few unbuttoned because my partner told me I looked like I was on safari with it buttoned all the way to the top. I thought the arms were a little tight but overall it fit nicely. The fabric is light and a beautiful material. So many compliments on the seashell pattern.

Great summer style

For a dress that is tailored just right and super comfortable, but has a pattern you can really only get away with wearing a few times, it is the PERFECT candidate to rent. Loved this, was fun and got lots of compliments.
