I rented this dress for my sister's rehearsal dinner since she went through RTR for her bridesmaids' dresses. I have to say that I'm glad I didn't pay the full rental price for it because I would have been really disappointed. First, it didn't come with the belt so I encourage future renters to prepare for that (a fellow bridesmaid came to the rescue for me, thankfully). Second, the stitches at the arms were completely gone so it was essentially two capes attached at the shoulders to a black slip. Once I belted the front panel and left the back panel free it looked good and I got a lot of compliments, but the partial upper arm coverage was a selling point for my body so it was kind of a bummer. The color is absolutely fabulous and the XL fit my hips like a glove without being too baggy up top; everything actually worked out in the end. I think the belt situation and delicate construction might be a few too many complications for the rental process to go consistently smoothly.
