Classy and Sexy!

I loved this dress!!! The material was comfortable and breathable. I normally have to keep pulling strapless dresses up, but this stayed in place while I was dancing all night. I got compliments all night long. Sometimes when I put heels on, petites can be too short, but this was the perfect length for 3 inch heels. I didn't have to wear a bra with it, which is highly unusual, because of the strong structure. I did, however, put spanks on because it is so form fitting. Phenomenal dress!

Superb!

I ordered the petite bc I'm so short (5'2") and read other reviews about the long length. With 3" heels this was exactly the right length! I loved the peplum shape as well since I was 7weeks postpartum and it gave me the midsection camouflage that I needed. Absolutely loved this dress and wished I owned it now!

Everyone loved the dress fit/looked on me! I usually wear an empire waste but this fit perfectly!

I wore it for a black tie wedding and it was beautiful. The material was more flattering than i thought it would be. It was elegant and hid my stomach which is what i needed. I usually have to wear an empire waist but I got to have a different style of this stress and everybody also took note of that!

The dress fit beautifully! it fit my hips and bust very well, and it was true to size. the only downside to it was that it was on the long side but the length was perfect with the 4" heels i was wearing.

This is a perfect dress for any sort of bloating. Very comfortable and easy to dance in.

Length was great fit was amazing and easy to move plenty of stretch. I felt sexy, but not to flashy. Classy sums up this style with a lot of "sas" this is a great dress amazing quality and very true to size.

FABULOUS DRESS!

I rented this dress for a black tie wedding and it was perfect!! I ordered the 4P and 2P. The 2P was a little tight in the bust so I went with the 4 and it was perfect. I got a ton of compliments and felt like a million bucks! Definitely a great dress! I wasn't sure about this style since I am larger in the bust- but it was perfect!

I rented this dress for my husband's military ball.

I originally selected another dress but was notified that it had been returned damaged by the previous renter. The staff at RTR automatically selected and sent this dress to me as a replacement and it was perfect! The dress fit perfectly and was very comfortable. My only issue was that it was just a touch long for me, even in heels, but it wasn't anything noticeable or unmanageable. This was my first rental and I will be back for more!

Daughter's Wedding!

I must have purchased at least ten dresses for our only daughter’s wedding—nothing felt quite right. I even had one professionally altered and still wasn’t happy with it. Then, just a couple of weeks before the big day, I found this dress and decided to order two sizes, just in case. It arrived, and I was immediately impressed by the quality—it’s beautifully made. I’m petite, so I went with the 2P and had it tailored: hemmed, taken in slightly at the chest, and added more boning to the bodice for support. It ended up fitting like a glove. I absolutely LOVED this dress. I felt beautiful, confident, and received so many compliments. It’s a timeless, elegant piece—truly a lovely classic.

Beautiful dress! Bust was small.

The bust was small on this. I am a C cup and couldn’t wear a strapless with it. I’m normally a 2 but I wish I would have got a 4 in this one. I’m 5’9” and with heels the length was good! Beautiful dress!

So many stars to see that night, but my husband is a the biggest star for me.

I felt confident in this dress, and added a BCBG cape. The dress stayed in place all night. I have a little weight in my belly, but you couldn’t notice it in this dress.

Fast service, didn't need the extra size.

The dress was beautiful! It is a snug fit so order up a size, maybe 2. Im 5'6 and with 4 inch heels the dress perfectly grazed the floor. Glad I read the reviews because if I ordered the regular length it would have been too short. The dress is plain so I suggest pairing it with a statement necklace.

This dress was stunning and comfortable! I got so many compliments on it!

We rented this for a prom. My daughter was weary of all the blinged and frilly dresses and wanted something simple, elegant and classy. This fit the occasion perfectly. The only problem was that she wanted to keep it after she'd danced the night away in it!! Wonderful dress, wonderful fit, classic and beautiful.

The amount of compliments I received blew me away - I felt so regal!

Fit is incredible. The fabric has a slight give without losing shape. I got TONS of compliments on it and felt so beautiful all evening!:) (I am a little on the shorter side and I wore a 2 inch heel which made the dress just barely perfect, otherwise too long!)

I felt like a million bucks in this dress!

I'm 5'7" so I ordered a long. It was about an inch or two too long with 3 inch heels but I used temporary hem tape and it was perfect. Emailed customer service about the length and they responded immediately and suggested the tape. Normally I wear a 10 so I ordered the 10 and 12. The 12 fit like a glove. I felt comfortable all night and received many compliments. The dress arrived on time and RTR couldn't have made it easier! I would definitely rent the runway again.

Comfortable, classic beautiful, and flattering in any size.

I've never rented from RTR before and never worn a strapless dress before, so I was nervous to get this dress, but didn't have time to shop at a million places and didn't want to spend a ton on a dress I'll wear once. Pleasantly surprised with how stunning this dress was and how flattering it was cut in every way. The little skirt below the bow hides tummy imperfections, the cut is slimming and comfortable. The only complaint is the zipper. Once my husband figured out how to leverage the bottom and pull up at the same time, we were golden. It fits tightly to stay up as it is strapless and essentially a corset in the top. I'm pretty tall, so I didn't have a problem with the length with maybe 1" heals.

This dress was great. I felt amazing in it and got so many compliments.

I normally wear a 10L, and this dress fit great. The peplum made it so I wasn't worried about sucking in all night, and it was extremely flattering. I wore sticky boobs because a strapless bra would've made it too tight of a fight. Again, I loved this dress and wish I could've bought it to keep.

Perfect dress and made my night amazing!

I ordered the dress for a black tie wedding. I had previously ordered a different dress that the zipper wasn't working on and I didn't love the size. So I called rent the runway and they overnighted me this dress. It was so easy and quick and one of the best customer service departments I've ever dealt with. The dress was pretty long on me so I wish I had ordered it in the petite, but was able to use double sided fabric tape to make it shorter. It was heavy though and I had to pull it up through out the night. The dress fit perfectly though and I got a million compliments. I would definitely use the site again.

Great experience!

Yet again, RTR was amazing! I got my stuff right when I was supposed to! The dresses were amazing! Both fit, but I went with the bigger size because I was going to be in the dress for so long, I was afraid it wouldn't be comfortable to wear the smaller size that long. The 12 was very very long, but they didn't have the 12 in petite. I wore very high heels so it actually worked out very well. I got so many complements on this dress for our 50s old Hollywood glamour theme. It fit perfectly. I can't wait to use RTR again!!!

Classy, Elegant, Flattering, Perfection.

This dress was absolutely gorgeous -- I got compliments on it all night. I was worried about the length, but I don't really know why. I am 5'6 and wore 3-4inch heels and it was the perfect length. Tiny bit of a train in the back but I didn't trip on it or anything all night. The one area that it could of fit better was the chest -- it was a little bit and I was pulling it up all night. I think that a thicker bra would have done the trick though. I would definitely rent this again in a second.

I loved every detail of this dress!

I wore this dress for a Moulin Rouge themed gala. This was my back-up dress and I am so glad I decided to order it! The dress was beautiful and I received compliments all night long. I only ordered it in the 4L and it was floor length with 3" heels. I probably should have ordered the 2L as well because the top was a little bit large but a padded strapless bra helped. The peplum was a nice detail that I wasn't sure I would like but it made me feel much more comfortable around the midsection.

I enjoyed partying with a purpose. The Kappa's Beautillion was a wonderful event. #scholarship

The dress feels wonderful. The material was very comfortable. The top however, was pretty big and you may require tape or a padded strapless push up to fill it out. I did not use either but felt a bit self conscience whenever I removed my shawl. Even with this minor issue the dress was a winner!

This was our first year doing The Chirpies, an athlete award show at Ball State University.

This dress fit very nicely. I had to pull it up a lot just because the bottom is heavy and it is strapless. It had a very elegant fit and the fabric laid flattering to curves. The length was perfect.

I received compliments from everyone at the event and also from those who saw pictures.

The dress was absolutely gorgeous and fit true to size. I usually wear an 8 or 10. The 8 fit a tiny bit snug so I wore the 10, but it ended up being a little too loose and kept moving around a lot. I should have gone with the 8. The length was perfect. It slims the tummy area and accentuates the figure. I rented it for my law school's Barrister's Ball. Not only was everyone at the event complimenting me on the dress, many friends who saw the pictures did as well. I have never felt as confident and beautiful. This was my first time trying RTR and I will continue to use in the future.

I wore this to my sorority's formal, and it was perfect!! Classic and elegant!

The dress fit so well! It highlights curves beautifully and the peplum is super flattering. It has a little stretch. The length was perfect on me with four inch heels; it just brushed the floor. I will say that the material is very thick, and I was hot (temperature-wise) for most of the night. It wasn't a huge deal, but I had to take some dance breaks to cool off. I also wore the Falling Teardrops Necklace from RJ Graziano rented from RTR, and I thought it was absolutely perfect for the dress.

I was nervous about size and delivery time, but was thrilled both dresses in two different sizes came on time. I was more thrilled when I tried it on and it fit perfectly. I received so many compliments. I was surprised at how easy it was to contact a representative over the phone also. Its nice to confirm things with live people. Overall, I will proudly brag about my experience with Rent the Runway. This was a great experience.

Black Tie University Charter Dinner/Fundraiser event- got MANY complements on the dress/accessories.

The fit was perfect in the bust and the waist- fit like a glove. However, the length even with 4-5" heels was still a little long for a girl who is 5-1" . The gown hit the floor with about 1" so I held it up a little throughout the night to make sure I didn't trip. Suggest wearing hair up if you have long hair.
