Beautiful- but Size Up

I am normally a 6 and the size 8 was just right. I do not recommend for people with a chest larger than a small C cup.

Flirty and fun

I needed to wear boob tape for this because the top buttons gapped but it was so cute! Perfect casual sexy top for summer.

Most worn rental in awhile

At first I thought this top was going to be too big on my boobs but there’s a ribbon that actually helps tighten the bust! I ended up wearing with jeans / jean shorts / and then this beige satin skirt to go to the office. Felt like one of those “nicer basics” that I should honestly consider buying because I would get alot of use out of this. I would maybe size down if you’re between sizes and have smaller boobs.

Beautiful top

I didn’t wear this out but wanted to show what the size 14 looks like while wearing. I’m only returning because I need a free spot to request other things I like more. The fabric and construction of this is super high quality, such a beautiful piece I just liked my other items more.

So Pretty, but Tricky Fit for Larger Bust

This top is adorable—lightweight, breathable, and perfect for hot weather. The eyelet fabric and corset seaming give it a really polished look. It was a bit tight in the bust for me, so I probably could’ve sized up but even then I would have still had the same issue which was the straps. They constantly slipped down and didn’t stay put, which made it a little frustrating to wear. I think this would work better on someone with a smaller bust. Overall, really cute but not the best fit for fuller chests.

Runs small and required some rigging

I love the eyelet fabric on this top! Summery and beautiful. The 8 felt a little small on me, and I usually wear a 6/8 in tops. If you have broad shoulders or a larger chest I would size up! The top two buttons were far apart, causing the shirt to gape open, but I solved for this with a safety pin.

10/10 top

Super cute top. I wore nippies but it wasn’t really see through. I would say this is for a smaller chest there isn’t a lot of room. Got a ton of compliments!

Cute summer top

I really liked this top, but I think it runs a little large in the shoulders. You can tighten the bodice with the strings, so that helped a lot.

Cute but just slightly off

For me the straps were too long but if you don’t mind slight slippage or your torso isn’t as short as mine you’ll be fine. Everything else fit well on it and it was easy to outfit because the buttons work so if you want to wear with high waisted you can unbutton and make it a flyaway

Small bust only!

Cute but definitely for small bust only. The cups/shelf is small so even if it buttons, it is awkward

Ran very tight in the chest waist and everything else were fine, but it is always a bit cropped if you were expecting waist length or longer

cute in theory

loved the design, but the chest and shoulders were way too large. I have pretty small boobs, so this might work for someone who’s more well-endowed! darling little top though

Made for smaller busts

The quality of this STAUD top was so lovely; I don't think it had ever been worn before, as my rental arrived with the tags still on. All that being said, it would not button over my bust. This lacks stretch and would definitely be better suited to someone with slimmer shoulders and a smaller cup size. I hope RTR can stock this in other sizes!

Way too small

I couldn’t button the first button. I’m usually a small or medium in tops and am not too heavy at all and should’ve gone up 1-2 sizes.
