The perfect dress for a grand exit!
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress for my own wedding - I changed just before our exit and it was a huge hit! I had so many compliments on the dress, and it looked spectacular with the sparklers we used for our exit! It was wonderful to be able to change into such a gorgeous dress (believe me, after spennding the whole day in a heavy strapless wedding gown, you're ready for a change) - and I still completely felt like a bride! I rented the 2 and 4 and ended up wearing the 2. It fit perfectly, and I have a very full bust (34/36 D). I was tired of wearing heels so I wore flats with it, and the 2R was still a tad long. Not unmanageable but would've been perfect with about 3 in heels I think.

THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST THING I'VE EVER WORN IT WAS SPECTACULAR!
Size worn: 8L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
the moment i saw this dress i knew it was the one! it was perfect. i wore it to my senior prom and i had a blast it was super comfortable and i was able to dance the night away. i took the advice of the other ladies that ordered this dress and took it a size smaller i usually wear a 10 so i ordered 8L and 6L both fit but i went with the 8 it had more breathing rooom. the zipper is a little tricky and the v cut is a tad bit low but with the help of the fashion tape i got with the dress (i also got a lip balm a cute lil face cleaser and other stuff from nuetrogena!) i was able to fix it. the packaging was great although my dress did get sent to the wrong address due to a miss print by RTR however i got it and it was everthing i expected and more. i recieved tons of compliments and i was really sad that i had to send it back. it was definatley worth the price i recomend this dress to anyone! <3

the dress that looks good on everyone
Size worn: 10R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
at the suggestion of my friend, i rented from the runway. after my event, i learned that we had selected the same dress. i'm normally a 12, though easily fit into the 10 (the bust was a bit too big for me so i had to saftey pin it in); while my friend is a 4. we both looked stunning in our dresses (we went to different events). i definitely think this dress looks great on just about every girl, every shape & every age. it's classic, comfortable and a head turner.

I've never gotten more compliments on a dress
Size worn: 4L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I was glad to have the option of 2 sizes, the dress is stretchy and ran a little bit big. I'm tall and usually have trouble with long dresses so having a long size option was great, though it still was probably not quite long enough. I have never received so many compliments on a dress. It was form fitting in all of the right ways, classy, and eye catching. I was nervous about all of the sequins but it didn't look cheap. Overall knockout.

STUNNING dress! Felt glamorous all evening!
Size worn: 4R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I absolutely LOVED this dress. As mentioned by other reviews, it does run a bit large, but I have a big bust so I was actually happy about this. My hips and thighs are quite curvy and the dress provided plenty of room to comfortably move around while still showing off my curves. The dress is a bit heavy but comfortable nonetheless. The biggest con for me was the length. I had read other reviews that said girls my height were able to wear flats without the dress dragging. Not sure how this was possible because I am 5'4 and had 3 inch wedges on and it was still a good 4 inches too long. Nothing a safety pin couldn't fix! Overall the dress was fabulous and I did not want to send it back!

Size worn: 2L
Overall fit: True to Size

I ordered a 2L and with 5 inch heels it was still a little too long. The glitter was kind of itchy by the end of the night. Overall the dress was amazing and everyone at Prom was in love with the dress. You will definitely have an unforgettable night with this dress! If you have a formal event or a wedding coming up this dress is a MUST.

I felt absolutely gorgeous the whole night!
Size worn: 0L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
When I put the dress on the day before without my hair or makeup done I still felt like a movie star. The dress runs large. I usually wear a 2 or 4, so definitely order a size down. The description says the the fabric has no stretch but I could move around fine and there was a little give/stretchiness in the waist. The zipper is a pain, but nothing too horrible. The 0L was perfect with my 4 inch wedges; the dress barely skimmed the ground. The deep V neck showed a little too much for me, but I easily fixed that with a few safety pins. Overall, a wonderful, show-stopping type dress. You'll get compliments all night long! I didn't want to send it back!

I rented this dress for prom, and nobody had a dress anything like it! I got compliments and turned heads all night, haha. It runs pretty big though. I usually wear a 1 or 2 but I ended up wearing the 0, which fit perfectly.

I wore this dress to my Junior Prom and I got compliments on it all night long. In my picture I'm with my prom date. The dress is a beautiful rose gold/champagne color that reflects light and makes you really stand out. I had people telling me that I looked like I belonged on the red carpet, and that I was the best dressed. If you're thinking about renting this dress, do it! You'll feel beautiful!

I felt like a goddess
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I have had my heart set on my dress on a very long time, but I was extremely hesitant about ordering it because I was terrified that it wouldn't fit/come on time/look as nice as it did in the picture. It did all three and the customer service was wonderful! The company is very easy to work with and they seem like the genuinely want you to look and feel incredible in their clothes. I got many compliments, one of which was asking if I came with Mr.Bond because of how beautiful the dress looked. The zipper is a little tough to get up all the way, however it is not a problem if you have someone to zip it for you. I'm extremely pleased with how my outfit worked out and am thankful to Rent the Runway for helping to make my prom a memorable experience :)

What a totally unique dress. I got so many compliments all night long.
Size worn: 6L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I rented the 4L and 6L, but wore the 6L. As I'm rather pear shaped, the fullness in the hips was a good fit for me. The dress is so soft, completely lined so no scratching like other sequined dresses. I wore 3 inch heels were were too short for the 6L, but the drape of the dress was not too much of a problem to walk in. It just flowed. Needed a few pieces of tape to hold the shoulders in place, but dancing revealed no unwanted parts.

Absolutely BREATH-TAKING!!!!! <3
Size worn: 12L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I chose this dress for my senior prom and let me tell you, I could not have been happier. I 100% COMPLETELY FELL IN LOVE!! I received compliments from everyone ALL NIGHT and even from strangers who told me my dress was by far their favorite. It is seriously a perfect dress. The sparkles are gorgeous and not cheap looking, and it really does work well on every body type. It does run very big as others said. I normally wear a 10L but had to wear the 12L because the zipper got stuck on the 10L dress, but even the 10 was big on me, I could've probably worn an 8. If you have any reservations about this dress, throw them out the window!! You can't go wrong with this dress, even if you tried :)

Loved it!
Size worn: 2L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I am usually a size 4 in all dresses but I have a smaller chest for this dress (I'm a 34B) and it was definitely made for someone bigger! Other than that, the 4R was larger around the waist, breast area and under the arms. I got the 2R and it was way too short (I'm 5'8") and it was above my ankles! I ended up getting the 2L due to the boobage (or lack thereof) and the length. It fit like a glove! The 2R is in the picture

If you are wondering if this should be a dress for you and wonder if its worth it. It SOOOO IS! I wore this for my prom. Be Prepared for Eyes staring at you the entire nice I ended up wearing the 2nd dress size 6R because the size 8R was way to big. Even the size 6 was big. I was strongly Suggest the going size to 2 sizes down. If you do have a big bust i would also suggest fashion tape. Besides that nothing wrong with the dress would definitely rent again!

Gorgeous gown! Great first experience with RTR!
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: True to Size

This was my back up dress, but it was so fantastic that my sister and I decided this was the dress to wear! I wore this to perform a song for a Broadway themed awards show. The sequins were so gorgeous in regular light, but on the stage they were gorgeous! The top is a little loose with the wrap type v-neck, but I was able to wear a regular bra and then used some fashion tape to keep everything secure. The length was perfect with heels, approximately 4 or 4.5 inches high. I now know why this is such a popular dress!

Beautiful gown got complements all night- it was very hard to get the zipper to come up, the fit was perfect in fact a little loose, so it wasn’t that we were forcing .Literally it took 4 people to make the zipper work. But I guess it was worth it. I love wearing it.

Very glamorous, yet comfortable dress!
Size worn: 12L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
Couple of notes on this dress. The color is less pure silver and more pinkish - like a pink champagne which made it a little difficult to match shoes. None the less I got a ton of compliments. Be ware if you have a tummy on you - this will show if you don't wear spanx. Looks great with a wrap if you're afraid of showing arms. I was comfortable all night.

I felt like a million dollars, and got so many lovely comments.
Size worn: 14R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress was a perfect fit for me! I was sent the 14 and 16, and the 14 was the best size due to it needing to be slightly fitted across the bust. I was worried about my bust area and having too much cleavage, so I used a small safety pin to pin it slightly higher to avoid this. The dress was a great shape, and very flowy from the waist down. I can't recommend this dress enough to ladies who want to show off their curves and sparkle!

The moment I walked in people were amazed and in awe with my dress. A true red carpet gown.
Size worn: 4R
Overall fit: True to Size

I wore this to my senior prom and was anxious until the day it came in. Anxious in a good way, that is. I initially ordered the 6 and 4 because in some instances I can fit 4 and 6 size dresses. I read that it ran large so I decided to try on the 4 first. It fit so fabulously and wasn't tight one bit! I had no issue with it but the zipper was a little of a hindrance. I received a boat load of compliments and was even told that I looked like a movie star. I could dance the night away in my "Badgley MIschka." Thank you RTR! <3

I got compliments all night long and didn't have to worry about pulling my dress up all night!
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I wore this dress for my 4th prom my senior year. I was nervous to rent a dress online, but I could not find any dresses as fashion forward as I wanted at salons. I rented this in a 2R and 4R, the 4R was shorter and wasn't quite the right length for me, so I ended up going with the 2R with about 2'' heels. The sequins did not scratch me at all and it was nice to have the straps so I wouldn't have to keep pulling the dress up. I did, however, add fashion tape (which was included in a nice little care package) to the plunging neckline so you couldn't see my normal bra underneath. It was such a beautiful dress and fit wonderfully! I'd definitely recommend renting this for your special occasion.

Felt like a glam goddess in this AMAZING dress!
Size worn: 14R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I felt in love with the dress when I got it! I never used Rent the Runway so I was hesitant when I decided to use RTR for my Senior Prom. Now I know that I had nothing to worry about! The dresses arrived on time! Definitely size down in the dress. I ordered my size and a size up and should have gotten a size down because the top was a little loose. Even with my pear shape, the dress fit perfectly. The zipper is a bit hard to zip so make sure you have people to help you. Also, RTR send you fashion tape if you have any need for it! I received countless compliments and it truly make me feel amazing on my special night!

An unbelievable eye catcher. Fit like a glove and made me feel so beautiful!
Size worn: 16R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I ordered this dress for my final grad school cello recital. I ordered the 14R and 16R and the 16 fit perfectly. I was even able to wear flats with the 16 (I'm 5'4" so that doesn't happen often). I did have to safety pin the neckline closed a little at the bottom because I didn't want to flash too much cleavage but otherwise the dress needed no tweaking. It was perfect for my recital because I have to be able to move around comfortably and I felt very secure in this piece. I got compliments from every single person that came to my recital, and even my teacher's 4 year old daughter came backstage to tell me "you look like a beautiful mermaid." An absolute success and I am definitely going to order from RTR again!

The sequins really stole the show
Size worn: 6R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Other
I wore this dress for an engagement shoot at Lincoln Center. It's really more of a black tie evening / red carpet dress, but I wanted the drama of the blush sequins against the crisp architecture. No surprise people around us were all staring and looking on. One lady walking her dogs walked over and said that I looked gorgeous. Definitely felt that way! Technicalities: zipper is a PAIN! Be prepared for that by allowing yourself some extra time. There is a small stitch that keeps the two front panels a bit more closed. On mine, it was broken which caused some extra cleave to show. Very fixable with a pin. The length on a R is perfect for a 5'8 gal. I'm 5'4 and wore 4.5" platform heels and managed alright. Photos by Jen Huang Photography.

I got so many compliments on my dress! Nobody had anything that even remotely looked like my dress.
Size worn: 16L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I ordered the 14L and the 16L for my senior prom. I wear a 14 in dress sizes, but due to a broken zipper, I had to settle with 16. The 16 was large, but nothing a few safety pins couldn't fix! My boobs haven't caught up with the rest of my body, so there was a little extra fabric in that area, but a good push up bra fixed that problem. I could have easily worn heels all night, if my feet had been up for it. The 16L was the perfect length for 5 inch heels and the 14L would have been fine with 3 or 4 inch heels. Overall, I was unbelievably impressed with this dress. It's sturdy, and it definitely makes a statement without being too over the top. The color is more of a rose gold than gold gold, which I matched with brown. Also, this dress was so comfortable!! I could easily dance and move around without anything moving around or falling out. I highly recommend this dress. :)

I rented this dress for my "Great Gatsby" senior prom and loved it! I was so nervous about the fit, but it was perfect! It's a gorgeous pink champagne color, though it kinda changes depending on lighting. goes with almost anything, and the sequins aren't rough on arms and hair, which is great! Only problem I had was with the bust, the front comes pretty low, but you can wear a regular bra with fashion tape and shouldn't have issues, just bring extras! Biggest advice I can give; measure yourself and use the charts from the designer's website, you'll be flawless. As far as my experience, I had a ton of compliments! And everyone knows prom is a huge fashion contest, so having people out there saying your dress is their favorite one they've seen is awesome! Still getting compliments to this day, not a forgettable dress!

Overall fit: True to Size

Really loved this dress on the website and wanted to love it when it arrived in the mail. However, when I took it out to try it on, I couldn't get the zipper t go up. This was not because the dress was too small (we had plenty of room to hold it closed) but because the zipper got stuck. We even tried zipping it off of my body and the 4R backup dress and the zippers just wouldn't budge. Gorgeous dress when you can zip it, but good luck with that part.

This dress made me feel like a glamorous celebrity. Never received so many complements in my life.
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
I wore this dress for my senior prom. The fit was exact to my body. I'm so glad I took advantage of the second size because I originally ordered 0R because I am usually a 0 but that turned out to be too small so I stayed with the 2R. The dress was extremely long for my frame, I had to hem it about 4 inches which was difficult because you can't cut it and the cloth is heavy but it is possible. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of the zipper. The zipper was extremely hard to move, it gets stuck with the sequins, you're going to need help. Overall I loved the dress. I had never felt so beautiful and glamorous. I received various complements. The service from RTR was awesome I got the dress just in time for my event. This is the first time I used RTR and I will continue to use it.

The length ran a little long so I had to have the hem raised just a little. I'm 5'3 so that might explain why it was a bit too long. I wore this dress for my senior prom and received soo many compliments! I danced for hours so the dress was a bit heavy.I couldn't have wished for a better dress!

I fell in love with this dress as soon as I tried it on. This dress is perfect if you have curves and you want to show them off! The dress runs big so you want to get the size you usually are and a size smaller ,also if you are busty you need to get a bigger size than what you are because the dress becomes smaller at the bust. The dress is cut low at the breast area so you need to use fashion tape to secure your twins! Other than that the dress is just perfect.

A show-stopper! Very glam. It is more of a rose-gold, than gold, so keep that in mind.
Size worn: 8R
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress is fabulous. It runs a little large. I am generally a 10 in most designers, but in this dress, the 8 actually fit better. The amount of fabric around the middle does "increase" the waistline a bit - so keep that in mind (it doesn't lay flat). The zipper is extremely hard to get up - you will need an assistant or two. The length is just right. It's a little low cut (I am "full" on top), but I didn't feel like I was going to fall out, just a little more exposed than normal for me.

Flattering for a full figured woman.

Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
If you are busty, this dress does provide room that other gowns likely will not. There was a sewn thread holding the top together midway between the breast on the 12 that wasn't on the 14. It made the chest too tight on the 12, but the 14 fit nicely.

Event was "A Night at the Oscars" so this dress was perfect!
Size worn: 2L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I read a lot of reviews that the top of the dress is really big, but I didn't find that to be an issue (and I am not very large up top AT ALL) Because a lot of the reviews said that the dress ran large I ordered a 0L (XL wasn't available) and a 2XL. The 0L was too small, and hit the floor with NO shoes on. The 2XL fit perfectly! I am 5'9 and wore 3 inch heels and the dress hit the floor. My only concern was that it made my hips look a bit wider than they really are. The fabric drapes outwards at your hips. Definitely a beautiful dress. Very happy with my purchase :)

This dress fit like a glove! The size 2 long length was perfect for my 4" heels. I felt like a movie star all night and got countless compliments on it! (I wore it for a Great Gatsby theme fundraiser.) Honestly, I didn't want to take it off, it was so beautiful. And shockingly comfortable! You'll adore this dress too! I was worried that it would make my middle section appear poochy (as some reviewed) but SO not the case. It draped beautifully and the weight of it was perfect! I'm over the moon happy that this dress worked out; it was my first choice! Fabulous first experience with RTR. I told so many friends about it and I can't wait to rent another dress...I'll start searching for an occasion now!

The dress is definitely amazing! I received plenty of compliments and felt like a movie star.

The dress catches the light beautifully even in low lighting. It was a bit long so I wore 4" heels. I had a difficult time deciding what shoes and accessories would match because the dress' color can honestly go with either silver or gold. I'm extremely pleased I got this dress!

It was a fantastic decision

I waited too late to go out and shop for a dress and I had huge time constraints. I had heard about Rent the Runway so I looked through the site. I called customer service after having some problems finding long dresses on the rapidly approaching date I needed them. She was fantastic and helped me find this dress since I am so tall. (5'11 1/2") I don't wear gold. Ever. But I went ahead with this choice and I'm so glad I did. I bought the jewelry the day of the event and it was a perfect look. There was a small area near the bottom hem where the sequins had all fallen off but it wasn't noticeable. I was just concerned about being charged for the preexisting damage, but wasn't. The zipper is a little sticky, but it will work. Someone had pinned the bust higher up and I took it out and let it go to where it did since there wasn't any danger of anything falling out here. I wore a low cut bra and it worked perfectly. I wore 3 inch heels and the dress was long enough and so elegant. Regrettably, a friend at the ball was wearing the exact same dress at the ball and I'm sure she got hers from RTR. I walked right over to her, we had our picture taken together and laughed about what great taste we each had in dresses. It was a huge event at the Fabulous Fox Theater in Atlanta and I'm easygoing so it didn't have any impact on my night, but maybe RTR could have some sort of way to prevent people from renting the same dress for the same event in the future? I will rent again. Thank you.

Everyone commented on how gorgeous and elegant the gown looked.

The lining is super soft. The sequins are high quality. The color is more like rose gold. It was a little large, I could have gone down one size. (normally a 2). The front does V kinda low, but someone had put a tiny stitch in it before and it worked perfectly. The sequins never scratched and it is easy to wear a comfortable wedge with the length. I wore this for my Senior Formal.

I ordered this dress for my one & only senior prom. I had decided this dress was "the one" way back in June. I placed the order for this gown in December, needless to say I like to plan ahead andit worked out for the best. I was hesitant about the sizing at first but the size 2 was even a little big on me! The zipper was sort of tricky, but overall fine. I didn't need to hem the dress or anything but it did drag a little and I hated that I had to pick it up at times. The cleavage was easy to cover up (though I was comfortable with the small amount) but make sure to not get the sequins under your skin it feels weird and gave me a sliver. The dress was a pinkish/champagne/copper/light gold so I would dress your date appropriately (we went with a lavender and it worked well). I really love love love'd this dress. The amount of compliments I got from everyone was astonishing and I truly felt like $506506903569034069. I still keep getting compliments even now. I seriously could not have asked for a more gorgeous/show stopping gown.

Amazing elegant dress

LOVED the dress. I am a size 4R and I wore the size 4R, but as the night went on the dress seemed to get larger (weird) so I regretted not wearing the size 2R. I am 5'4 134 pounds and a D sized cup and the length was perfect with 4 inch heels. I wore it to a military ball so it was perfectly elegant. While wearing the dress it seemed pink/ rose gold but in pictures it looked gold. GET IT.

I rented this for my sorority's formal. I originally was going to wear the Badgley Mischka "Put It On the Glitz" gown which is the black version of this, but it was too short. I am 5'10 33-25.5-35.5 and normally a size 2 or 4, and I was SO glad when RTR said it wouldn't be a problem to overnight this Glitz gown to me because it comes in the extra long length. I ended up wearing the 2XL. When I tried it on I was sooo happy because the colour is absolutely amazing--it's like a champagne-y pink/blush colour and everyone said it looked great with my tan from Spring Break! Much more flattering than the black. I was able to wear 3" wedges with this dress length and it was just grazing the floor--perfection! It does run a little large I think. I had to wear a bra with some extra push to give it a little oomf (I'm a 32 A). Bustier girls should be fine, and wearing a normal bra works because you can't see the straps. Overall, I am beyond thrilled with my first RTR experience :) It was a perfect dress to tie together my perfect formal!
