This is a beautiful dress. I wore the 6 and normally wear a 4 or 6. The dress was snagged in a few places but it didn't take away from the beauty. I loved wearing it and all night received complements on how beautiful it was.

I wore this dress to my boyfriend's work holiday party and got complimented all night! It had the perfect amount of sparkle and was appropriate for a work event. I have larger hips and did find it tight throughout that area, but it wasn't uncomfortable and stayed true to size otherwise.

GORGEOUSITY!!!!!
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
Where to begin.... the pictures do not do this dress justice.... it is absolutely stunning. Light fabric, nice cream color, with the most detailed beutiful bead work I have ever seen. It runs a bit small, so get a size up, but trust me when I say this... you will feel and look stunning!!! Never had I ever thought I would get to wear an $800+ dress to any event. I was extremely lucky to wear this particular dress. It was out of my price range ($125) and although I wanted it so bad I ended up choosing another dress in a $50 range. RTR contacted me the day my dress was due to ship and advised that they did not have my back up size. They worked with me for hours to find a perfect dress. My stylist Serena was just amazing. I picked this dress and RTR shipped it to me at no additional cost with my original dress. When the box arrived I was stunned to see two beutiful dresses to choose from. This one won as it just has this WOW factor. RTR also has this dress in midnight blue I just wish I had another event back to back as I never got to wear the second dress. Next event is coming up in February.... RTR, what to wear???!!!!

The dress was true to size, besides it being a tad large in the chest area. I don't think that was the dress's fault, though!

Being 5'2", this dress hit a bit lower on my leg than the pictured model.Although it runs true to size, The bust for me in the 0 was a bit tight. I wore the 2 to prevent a pulling at the back near the zipper at the bustline. It worked out well but there was a bit of gathering at the waist line due to the increased size all around. It is completely gorgeous!

I rented the 6 and 8, as I usually do with dresses. Both fit well enough to wear and I debated back and forth. I decided to go with the 6 since it was New Years and I wanted a little tighter fit for a night out in the city. Received lots of compliments.

The color was a little more peach than it looks in the photo, but still cream colored, if that makes any sense. I ordered a 10 and 12, but the 12 was in better shape overall, so I wore that one. And I may even order the dress again for future events! :)

I wore this dress for New Years Eve. The photo doesn't do this dress justice! The beading is gorgeous although it does seem very fragile, I had to cut away a few spare strings before heading out but it wasn't really that noticeable. I have slightly larger hips so it was a bit more fitted there but otherwise seemed pretty true to size.

Gorgeous dress! Wore it for a Christmas party. Definately runs a bit small. I recommend wearing it without tights or spanx if you have a butt. (I do and the dress stuck to the spanx and got twisted. Once I removed them the dress hung beatuifully!)

I liked the look of the dress, but for me it was snug at the bust and snug at the waist/hip area. The dress has a lot of beading so it has a little weight to it, but overall I received tons of compliments on the dress. Great choice for the winter.

The dress is not quite as "loose" as I'd say it looks in the picture, so I would definitely order your normal size and a size up, just in case you're looking for that looser look. The sequins are delicate, so if you're planning on going rough and tumble with a bunch of kids at a wedding or a family affair, I might suggest another dress -- I had to avoid a niece who wanted to pull off the "diamonds" all night. But overall I got a zillion compliments and felt joyful in the dress. Enjoy!

I rented this dress for my holiday party. I saw that it ran small in the hips and since I have big hips, I ordered two sizes bigger than my normal size. I usually wear a 12, but the 14 in this was even too tight. I was relieved that the 16 fit because it really is a beautiful dress. I received loads of compliments from party goers. And in the end it did flatter my figure. Perfect dress for the holidays!

Comfortable, easy to wear and unique
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress was great for my growing pregnant belly (I wore at 14.5 weeks). I received a lot of compliments, and I loved that the dress is unique without being gaudy. Like other reviewers have mentioned, one of the slip layers does tend to peek out, but I don't think many people noticed. I normally wear a 6 or 8 in department store sizes, but I had to wear the 10 for this dress. Partly b/c my body is changing from pregnancy, but also partly b/c I think designer dresses are sized smaller than regular retail stores. Overall a lovely dress, and I'm really glad I was able to rent this.

Was nervous of the fit since reviews said there's an odd fit to the a-line (complaints of extra fabric bunching in mid section) That comment held true but only when dress is worn more fitted, & not really noticeable. Was very surprised at the difference between sz6 (norm sz) & sz4. Sz6 was VERY hangy and down to my knees. Def order size down if desire fitted look! Beading is beaut in person, AMAZING in pics (mine don't provide justice). Sleeves gorgeously bell BUT 1 elastic band snapped immed. after cocktail hr from minor adjusting! Disappointing! Luckily not TOO noticeable since sleeves are naturally drapey. Waiting on RTR response on that. Exceptional delivery packaging & service as far as RTR goes. ***Funny thing is immediately after arriving to my table I noticed the very long sleeve laced Nicole Miller dress that I considered for this event! Instead of greeting the couple with a hello or my name, it was pointing at her & exclaiming "Nicole Miller, Rent the Runway?!?!". She confirmed & also expressed satisfaction with RTR.

This dress is beautiful! I went to a really nice resturant in Houston and a number of women stopped me and complimented the dress. It is not form fitting, I wore spanks just because they smooth "things"; but spanx are not required for this dress.

The sparkles!!
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Party
The dress was very pretty - you can see it from across the room. The fabric is not very forgiving though, so I recommend going up a size. It was a little difficult to get in and out of the car because there is just no give and I didn't want to tear it. The under layers kept peeking out of the bottom - but it was doing it all the way around, so maybe that's how it fits?? Overall, beautiful dress!!

The dress fit true to size and was very comfortable. The only problem that I had with it was that the middle layer (the dress is made of 3 gauzy layers) hung lower than the outer, sparkly layer. It probably wasn't noticeable to anyone but me but I wasn't happy with it! Fortunately, RTR provides a fit kit so I simply used some hem tape for a super quick, effective fix. I had such an amazing, unforgettable birthday evening in this dress! Thanks for the incredible service, RTR!!

I ordered this dress for my Church's Christmas Party. I got a ton of compliments. This dress has the right amount of sparkle for Christmas and New Years! This dress was fabulous. However, it was a bit snug around my hips and booty and laid oddly across my upper back. Not an issue with the dress itself, I usually have to have dresses altered to bring in the chest/shoulders. I wore Nude closed toed heels and taupe/brown peal earrings.

Fit was great - I wear a 34 C, and usually size 27 jeans. The 4 was too big, but the 2 fit like a glove. Everyone who saw me literally said "WOW thats a great dress!" It's unusual with the sparkles all over it, but still classic looking. The sheer sleeves add a bit of elegance but they arent too big. Highly recommend for the southern girl at summer weddings!

I got both a 0 and a 2 just in case and went with the 0. So if anything, it MAY run a tad large. The only thing was that the sleeves were a tad baggy/awkward, but it was no biggie. Also, one of the layers of tulle (or whatever it was) in the front was hanging (just from previous wears, it seemed), so I had to double-sided tape it - but it was easy enough.

its not white with gold as in the pictures you provide.

You can tell it was worn a few times. i bought GOLD shoes to go with it and they really didnt match too well, good thing it was dark at my party! the dress is stunning, but i wish i knew the color better, i was really caught off guard when i opened the bag and saw it wasnt white!!!

The dress is gorgeous! All of the sequins caught the light perfectly in photographs and they were all in good shape (none of them were hanging off the dress). My only tiff was with the dress is that the very bottom of the sleeve is more tight and it was a little suffocating -- it didn't bother me enough for me not to rent the dress again if need be, I just wanted everyone to be aware.

I wore this dress to my cousin's wedding in mid October. I instantly fell in love with this dress when I saw it online, and fell even more in love with it after trying it on. This dress looked absolutely gorgeous with my blonde hair. I was a little worried because it looked a little tight in the picture, but it actually fit very comfortably. It was the perfect combination of shimmer and shine-just enough to grab other's attention, but not enough to be obnoxious. I would highly recommend this dress to anyone who is considering it. You won't regret it.

The dress was quite large, there was also a tear on the side of it which made me disappointed because of RTR's supposed "rigorous inspections" , it fits very large and is fitted around the hips but not on top s o the dress slouches around the belly area and makes it look unflattering.

Loved how this dress looked both classy and fabulous. Definitely got TONS of compliments on how great it looked. I wore copper earrings with it so anyone questioning what metals will go will for jewelry keep that in mind! There are small copper gems/sequins throughout the dress that are hard to see in the pictures. A bit tight in the bust for me but otherwise was a total hit and I wish it was mine!

Fantastic Birthday Dress!
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
This was a back up dress for my 30th Birthday when my original rental did not work. It was perfection. It's very comfortable, and stands out in a crowd. I received compliments not only from people at my party but from multiple strangers on the street. It's lined well, so your undergarments do not show through. It's a little snug in the bum area, but that gave me some nice curves, and wasn't so much as to be too tight. I loved, loved, loved this dress. I cannot say enough good things about it; it made turning 30 much more bearable! :)
