Lovely!

Only issue is with RTR’s dry cleaning… the little pads at your boobs weren’t handled properly and were folded up within the dress, so it didn’t lay flat. Ample room in the bust!

Great winter dress

Rented a 4 & 6. The 4 fit but created a uni-boob… so if you have a larger breast, size up! Wore the 6. Received lots of compliments. Will add that the lining was hanging out below the dress - note to RTR to address!!

Fantastic!

Rented this dress for a formal event in mid-January and have only great things to say! The dress was comfortable, flattering, and I received lots of compliments - all the things we want, right? The fabric was forgiving. Would recommend seamless, no-show underwear. I'm busty and am used to dresses being too tight in the chest, but wasn't the case here. Would highly recommend and rent again!

If you have boobs, this dress isn't for you. I'm top-heavy and could barely squeeze the girls in, then was quite big in the hips.

Comfortable & fun for my bachelorette

I wore this dress for my bachelorette party in Vegas - needed a white, sequined dress of course! I always like a Badgley Mischka dress; however this one was a bit odd. It fit fine in the bust (and I'm busty), but was oddly restrictive around my ribs, and then larger in the hips. Nothing worth complaining about, just an odd fit. Also, the sequins didn't scratch under my arms like similar dresses can do, so that was a plus!

Better than expected!

This was a backup dress for an outdoor wedding I attended and I just loved it! There was no need for special undergarments. The lace was really lovely in person, too. I'm a bit larger up top than in the hips/waist, and wore a thin belt with this to give me a bit more of a figure. Unfortunately, no pictures, but a great rental nonetheless!

Way too poofy, didn't fit the "girls"

I've rented this designer before and found it to run large. I'm usually a 4-6 as I'm a 32E, and the 4 couldn't zip up. Also, the dress looked like a horrible prom dress - super poofy!

Great color and fit!

I wore this to a NYE wedding and it was great! I don't normally do red dresses as it can be a very tricky color, but this was beautiful! I'd previously rented this dress in green for a different event, obviously it was a big hit! Felt comfortable in the dress all night, could easily wear a strapless bra, and wasn't tripping on the length. Great RTR experience, as always!

One of my favorite RTR experiences!

I really wish I would have gotten a picture that showed this whole dress, all the ones from this event were from the waist up and not helpful to share. I'm a 34DD and usually wear a 4 or 6 for the girls, but the reviews said it ran large so I got a 2 as a back up - and I'm glad I did, as that's the size I ended up wearing. The back was a little low and the bras I brought with me didn't work, so I went without and it worked really well! I got so many compliments, was totally comfortable, and really didn't want to return it! The high-low style was great for a semi-formal wedding. Bonus that it had pockets :)

Perfect dress!

This dress was much nicer in person than I expected. I'm rather busty so I got a 4 & 6 since I'm never sure up top, but the 4 fit very well. I went without a strapless bra since I felt it was showing a bit under my arm and I planned to be dancing and didn't want to have to constantly worry about it showing. I got tons of compliments, which is standard for my RTR experiences!

Not for the top heavy

I rented this dress for a wedding and was SO excited! The dress itself is very pretty. However, the size 4R didn't fit my ta-ta's, so I had to do a plan B (thanks to the wonderful staff at RTR the 2nd option worked wonderfully!)

Looked awesome, left bruises, got tons of compliments

I ordered the 4R & 6R for a black tie wedding. I could wear the 4R without a bra, but it came to about my ankle (surprising since I'm not very tall), so I went with the 6R which ended up being about 3 inches too long. I used toupe tape (aka fashion tape) for the front of the dress so I wouldn't trip, but it ended up getting stuck to my shoes so I kind of carried the dress when I walked. The bride, maid-of-honor, best man, and several people came up and showered me with compliments! Including, "Everyone's been talking about you, saying you're the best dressed guest here" (not a pick up line, as I was next to my boyfriend)! The boning in the 6 poked from the top and the bottom a bit. Turns out the bottom boning hit my waist/hip area and left significant marks! It took a few days for them to go away actually - didn't make me bleed or anything at least?

Fun dress, lots of compliments

Wore this to a wedding in Vegas (wasn't 100% sure what was acceptable/expected) - this dress was wonderful! I'm hesitant for spaghetti straps being a bit top-heavy, and thought the straps seemed long - turned out to be ok & better for dancing. I caught the bouquet - think it was a good sign!

What a fun gown!

I love this designer and can count on the 4 to fit me. I was nervous about renting a floor-length dress, but the reviews and on-line chatting helped! The 4R was fine in the length, but was a little big everywhere... I thought about pinning it, but didn't end up having time, oh well! Oh I could wear a regular bra, which surprised me. Got a lot of compliments (per usual with RTR!) And the color is great!

Fun party dress

I got a lot of compliments on this dress! I wore it to my holiday party and it was great! I was a bit nervous that it might slide down as this may not have been the best dress for my figure (size 0/2 in the hips, but D+ up top...). Certainly wasn't disappointed though.

Comfortable, easy to dance in!

The picture (the model & mine) shows how the dress fits - you get what you're looking at. Which was quite helpful since I had it shipped across the country for a wedding. Got lots of compliments on it, as well. Since there's no rouching on the back, make sure you have seamless underwear, but that's pretty standard, right? The dress is more blue-green than green, but oh well!

I wore this to a black tie fundraiser; Tony Danza was there and complimented me on the dress even. The group I was with loved it, as well as strangers. The color is really bright and cheerful.

This was the first dress I rented using RTR. It was truly enjoyable (hence why I've continued to use this service)

I rented this dress for a black tie ball in October. The color is gorgeous and the texture is really unique. It was a (positive) topic of conversation. It fit really well. The side detail is gold-ish and black, so black heels worked well.

Awesome dress. I actually found this dress online to buy to keep :) RTR is so great!

I rented this dress for a black tie charity event and got so many compliments - from strangers, friends, and my boyfriend's jaw dropped when he saw it. I'm a busty (34D) 5'4" girl and this fit perfectly, I nixed the strapless bra. It does hug your curves, so if that's an area of concern - Spanx or the like might be a helpful friend. Best part: I loved the dress so much that I found it online and bought it and have worn it again (with the same reactions... different crowd of course!)
