It's a tough call, but I think this may be my favorite RTR dress so far - definitely the most wearable. I wore it to a women's networking event, and it was perfect. Interesting and beautiful but totally appropriate for the occasion. The print is so cool and the fit flattering. Wore it with nude heels and minimal jewelry. I must mention my favorite feature, the POCKETS!, which are perfect for business cards. 

I wore this dress to a summer wedding rehearsal dinner in New Mexico. The heavy linen was great for an outside summer event and the detail on the fabric was beautiful. I received many compliments throughout the night. The fit was perfect - snug in the right areas, with a nice structure and shape.

This dress was perfect for day to night. I wore in the office all day and then right out to a cocktail party, and got tons of compliments both at work and all evening. I thought it fit true to size though I've worn Lela rose dresses before in one size smaller. I do not recommend for really busty figures.

It is tight in the bust when you are exactly measured out as a size 6. No wiggle room there. It's also linen, so wrinkeled very easily. It made my engagement pictures look great, and has a beautiful paint-stroked pattern to it. I will say, it is far more tan than it is white/light grey. It's definitely more muted than shown. Still beautiful, but don't expect a light/bright dress!

I rented this dress for the RTR party in NYC - which was so fun! I struggled with picking out the right dress, as I wanted something that would be appropriate for work during the day - and my office is pretty conservative - but would also work well for the cocktail party in the evening.  Given all of the glitter and glitz at the RTR event, I definitely felt a little underdressed and muted, but the dress was certainly work appropriate.

I said this runs a bit large - but only because it didn't work extremely well on my petite frame.  I don't have much in the way of hips, so the skirt didn't fit quite as nicely as it could, and it also was rather long - hitting just past my knees. The top through the shoulders and collar was also a bit loose - but it fit nicely in the waist.

All-in-all, a pretty, sophisticated dressed for a more conservative affair. I loved that it was free for the event, too!  Not so sure I'd ever rent it for full price again... 

My friend also felt her Kensington mini ran a little long - and she has rather long legs.
