I wore this dress to my company's Product Launch Party, it was a huge hit!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
After reading the reviews on this dress I decided to wear it to my company's Product Launch Party. The dress was a perfect mix of sexy and business ( aka a very rare thing ). I ordered a size two and size four, planning on wearing the four. Unfortunately, the size four was to big around the waist but fit my upper body/chest perfectly. I ended up wearing the size two which fit great in the waist but was a little snug up top. If you are thinner girl with a larger chest I would recommend getting a size smaller along with your normal size just in case. Overall, the dress was a complete hit! I received so many compliments that I ordered another "for keeps" this time in navy blue. It is a great dress to have for any business event.

Great, fitted dress, runs mega small though!
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
This is truly beautiful dress, I felt like a Joan from Mad Med with it. Hugs all the right places but the length keeps it professional. However, and this is a big but, the dress runs incredibly small. Previous reviews say it runs true to size but that was not the case for me. I'm a standard size 6 and the 6 felt more like a 2. The size 8 took a bit of hustling to get into (two spanx, a day of fasting and my roommate), but it looked amazing. Got a ton of compliments and generally just felt amazing. Beware of the size, the dress is stretchy enough that a larger size won't sag, also be weary of the arm holes, the cut is a bit low and your bra (or spanx!) could be showing at any moment! All that aside, I don't regret the rent.

Exquisite dress. The material, fit and unique neckline made for a stellar RTR experience.
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Party
I rented this dress to wear to my office holiday party. I had tried it on at Nordstrom before renting it so I knew a sz 10 would work best. Normally I wear a sz 8 pant and in a former Badgley Mischka rental I wore a sz 6. Safe to say, this dress definitely runs small. However, the material is TO DIE FOR. I wore spanks to smooth out imperfections in my bum and tummy area. The skinny belt accentuated my waist and I received many compliments throughout the night.

I got the size 6 and 8 just to be safe, since the reviews that I read mentioned the dress being true to size. The size 6 was actually a little loose, and it was longer than I expected. Overall, I loved the dress and received many compliments throught the evening. I actually wanted this dress for a holiday party in 2011, but it was unavailable. I ordered this dress in early October this year just so I could have it for my holiday party this year!!

My husband loved this dress.
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
This dress fit like a glove. It didn't have a lot of stretch, but was comfortable to wear. I originally purchased the Spanx Simplicity Open-Bust slip to wear under it, but was unable to because you could see it in the arm holes. However, I didn't have any problems wearing my regular bra. This was my first experience with RTR and it was so easy. Can't wait to rent again!

I have been coveting this dress ever since I tried it on at Saks a year ago. I told myself that my reward for losing weight before my wedding (in addition to looking great in the photos) was that I could rent this dress for my rehearsal dinner. Well I did and it was great - so figure flattering though I did need a little fashion tape to keep my bra from showing under my arm.

I wore this dress to my sister's bridal shower that I hosted- it was such a hit and I felt confident and gorgeous! I normally wear a size 2, however, the size 2 was a little too tight in my hips, so I went with the 4. If I was going to wear this out for a date with my boyfriend, I would probably have worn the 2 for a bit tighter look on the rearend ;) I really would love to own this!!!! So hard to send it back :(

I had seen this dress on many celebs, so imagine my excitement when I found I could rent it for a single-wear occasion for an excellent price! As soon as it arrived in the mail (right on time!) I couldn't wait to try it on. It was snug in all the right places, and I was stoked! I ordered an 8 and 10, and the 8 fit well, but the 10 allowed me to breathe... and eat dinner. ;) Still, it looked like a 6 on me, and made me feel like I was breaking necks when I walked into a room! Will definitely rent this one again... different occasion, different color? (Gonna be hard to top the man-eater red!)

Best dress at the wedding
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
I rented this dress in red for a yacht wedding. Holy smokes it was gorgeous. I received a ton of compliments and was actually told by several folks there that it was the classiest/best dress of the night. It is a little longer than cocktail length if you are short like me (I'm 5'3) but with some heels it works. Unfortunately RTR didn't have the back-up size 6 available and they sent the dress without the belt. I asked them if they would send the 6 in the black version and they refused. Anyhow, the dress came and I had eaten a burger the night before the event and could not zip up the dress. However, the next morning, it fit, barely with some spanx. It is very body hugging so I recommend going a size up. I ended up fitting in the 4 but would have been happier in the 6. I have since tried on this dress in the 6 to buy (because it really is that great of a dress) and it fit much better. I wish I had a full body shot of the dress, but unfortunately I wasn't thinking and only have neck up shots, not worth sharing to help others see the fit. But...even in those shots, people have commented about the stunning neckline. Rent this dress ASAP.

This was my second choice dress, and I ended up going with it because of the length and coverage since it was still winter weather. I was a museum event opening, and received many compliments on the dress from the other patrons. It was perfectly curve hugging, the material was pretty thick, and the detail at the necklines made this dress unique. A great dress, I would HIGHLY recommend.
