Perfect dress for every occasion

The waist was snatched, the chest was wide enough for me and the length was even for me as a tiny girl perfect.

One Shoulder Wonder

I only have photos of me sitting or from the neck up, so you really can’t tell how fabulous this dress is. It is comfy, has pockets, and is stylish to boot!

Gameday Dress

Fit was great. A little big in the chest, but I also have no chest. Length was perfect for my height and I could easily wear sandals. The belt didn't come with the dress, so I improvised. Has pockets. Material was thick, but hid sweat well.

Easy and cute

A safe option for a date, wedding, or party. Dressed up with espadrilles but you could dress down with sandals. Super comfortable!

Day to night

This is a beautiful and comfortable dress that will flatter many body types. I usually wear a size 4 in designer dresses and a size 25 in denim, but I rented a size 2 in this dress (I have Madewell pants in XS, in my opinion, the brand tends to run large). I’m glad I sized down. The fit is perfect. This is a great vacation or spring-summer dress that can be dressed up or down.

Boxy fit, but very comfortable

When I put the dress on, the amount of fabric was overwhelming and looked very maternity (especially with the belt/bow directly under the bra liner. I wind up bunching up the extra fabric in the back and securing it with a safety pin (hidden under the belt) to make it a little more form fitting and less balloony. The fabric is light, so it was perfect for a 90 degree wedding day. The top of the dress was form fitting with a bra.

Thought it would be cuter

I should have ordered a bigger size. I didn’t realize this dress has a side zipper and the area around your rib cage was too small in this size. I’m not usually a 2 but this dress is voluminous. Order your normal size because of the side zipper.

Cute. Nothing special

I like the one shoulder design and pockets. Maybe too much material for me. Comfortable. I would not rent again. Runs big. I sized down to 6 and it was still a little big. Had to steam wrinkles.

Great Dress but finicky zipper

Loved this dress. It was light and comfortable. My biggest issue and I don't seem to be the only one (not only from RTR but when I've looked on Poshmark to buy it) is the zipper on the side. Quite frankly - it sucks. It's really, really difficult to get the zipper up and I was almost afraid I could have ripped the zipper off the dress (which seems to be happening judging from the dresses I'm seeing on resale sites with busted zippers). My only other flag to renters - I definitely think this works best on taller gals, I'm 5'2" and this dress was just about at my ankles in terms of length but I would still wear again with wedges.

Fun LBD, runs small

The chest area runs small (no stretch), but the bottom is poofy enough to fit wide hips.

Great fit

I was a little nervous about the one shoulder chest line but this is very well made. The front of the sleeveless side stayed up well and didn’t pinch either. I received many compliments

This dress wrinkled very easily, but it didn't look messy while wearing it. Overall, it was cute but nothing I considered buying.

Nice dress, love the off shoulder. Great for a night too dressy but want to dress up night. The crisp cotton makes it both casual and dressy.

I didn’t end up wearing this because I didn’t have an occasion, but it’s a nice statement look and change from other LBDs!
