Loved this dress, so full and fun wore it out and about in Cali got so many compliments! Runs true to size I wore a 6R

I wore this dress to a 60th birthday Sunday brunch and got tons of compliments!  So airy and flowy AND with pockets!  The dress fits little tight at the top, something to be mindful of you are bigger up top or broad shouldered.  I definately recommend!

Loved! So fun and easy to wear. Perfect for so many different occasions.

This dress is super cute and easy.  The fit was great.  The fabric is great.  The only thing that I didn’t care for is the color.  I rented 2 different ones because I thought that maybe it had faded or it looked a little dirty and it is just the color of the dress.  Other than that, Ioved it.  Lots of compliments!

This was a fun, playful and expressive dress for me. It was worn as my "cake cutting" dress at my birthday, barefoot in the grass. Would pair nicely with sandals! Very comfy and roomy! 

Big and flowy but adorable!!
Always get tons of compliments 

Wore for my socially distanced park birthday party and loved it! So fun and floofy. 

This brings your little girl dreams to life. I felt next level dreamy. Fabric is breathable as well. Kind of sheer though, so know you'll be able to see whatever you wear underneath. I opted for a pretty pink bra and nude spanks.

This dress is very simple, but it’s a little like dressing like a cupcake so be prepared to make a statement. It’s super comfortable, but if you’ve never worn a costume or anything that you had to “arrange” when you sit down/stand up you might find it cumbersome. I expected not to like the ties and I didn't - I don’t think they add anything visually and they are annoying. In terms of size, might be too long for a petite frame, but generally fits true to size (pay attention to Uk conversion ofc)

One of my favorite things I've rented from RTR - this dress was so fun and definitely made a statement. Just remember it's European sizing so size up

This dress was so fun to wear but also ridiculous! So big but really done right. Very good fit across chest and shoulders so the voluminous bottom didn't overwhelm the dress. I would have kept it longer than one wear but husband really did not like it:(

I rented this dress while recovering and it was a departure from my usual fare. 

Pros
One of the most comfortable pieces of clothing you will ever put on your body.

Cons
The baby-doll style is challenging to pull off in middle age. Under 30 — no problem. Over 60 — definitely.

Verdict
If you want to keep a low profile then this is not the dress for you. Be prepared for plenty of comments and lots of smiles (some with you and others at you).

Either order your true size or down. 



Most comfortable, adorable, beautiful dress EVER 

Loved this dress for vacation! The bows down the back were such a fun detail. While the dress had pockets, I found they were lost in all the fabric. It is very voluminous without being heavy or hot. I would definitely rent again! 

I think I ordered the medium.  It fit a little big but the whole dress is designed that way so it was fine.  The quality of the dress felt amazing, like being inside of a wedding cake made of cotton.  I wore it out and about for drinks by the beach and to WFH.  It was a very cool alternative to sweatpants.  Loved the dress and wore it several times.

This dress was fun. Volume done right. 

My friend loved it. My husband laughed and eventually asked me if I could please change into another dress. 

It doesn't look like much on the hanger and it's hard to understand how a cotton dress can be quite this expensive but...it's like magic! Despite the shapeless appearance, this dress is impeccably cut and absolutely beautiful. It's the palest of pinks, with pockets and looks gorgeous with a heel or flats or even my Chuck Taylor's. I don't want to send this back!

So much volume! A little costume-like but the color and tie-backs are adorable! The cotton is soft  and it worked well as a bathing suit cover up as well. I don't think it would travel well-- on a plane or a car, actually. 

This dress is the ultimate epitome of feminine fashion. My husband did say I looked like Glenda the Good Witch from Wizard of Oz - I take that as a compliment, right?!! Very comfortable. I belted it and paired with golden goose sneaks for wfh vibes.  

Loved how fanciful this was! Partner said I looked like a doll, which is a compliment in my book ;)
