I have never been complimented so many times in one night! Loved every moment in this dress!

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

It's a skin hugger yet flattering and forgiving at the same time. The neck line is gorgeous. I wore this to a black tie and was not at all underdressed. It is an eye catcher! It was comfortable. Showed off my curves, it's sexy but conservative all at the same time. Love love love!

I rented this gorgeous dress for a baptism reception and I have never felt more beautiful in a dress than I did in this dress. The fit was amazing. It was super comfortable and I got so many compliments on it. I usually wear between and 8 and a 10 in dresses but I ordered the dress in a 10 and a 12 knowing that designer dresses usually run small. I ended up wearing the 12 even though the 10 fit me like a glove because the sleeves were so narrow. This lace has NO give at all so the sleeves were very tight. I opted for comfort over size and I am so glad I did. Rent this dress - you will not be sorry.

OMG

Size worn: 10

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

First, let me state that RTR has to be the most dedicated, awesome company. In the midst of a hurricane, which I FULLY comprehend after living through Katrina, they shipped me my dresses overnight airmail. I was headed out shopping 2 days prior to a destination wedding to look for a mother of the groom dress, and I received the email that my dresses were on the way! This company ROCKS! Having sang their praises, now let me critique this dress. Perfect. Elegant. I felt like a star. The wedding was at a venue in New Orleans, and there were hundreds of candles. The beading on this dress picked up all the flickering light and was twinkling away. It is a substantial dress with boning, lined extremely well, and slightly drapes on the shoulder (I wore a VS bra with clear non-slip straps so it was not a problem at all!). Beautiful, glamorous, and comfortable! I danced away to all sorts of music. Compliments galore. Gorgeous. Loved it 100%. Thank you RTR, for your customer service and tremendous selection of dresses!!!

It made my night to have a VERY well dressed woman stop to compliment me & comment on my dress!

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I wore this to a military cocktail reception in Washington, D.C. What a spectacular dress. It felt tight for about the first hour (I was the first one to wear it), then was perfect the rest of the night. It also felt heavy on the hanger, but not at all when it was on. The length was just right, and the way it fit and hangs really accentuated the few curves I have. It felt like such an 'of the moment' dress and I could not have been happier with it. My husband kept repeating, "You look SO nice!" This is a dress I wish I had in my closet!!

This dress fit perfectly and made me feel amazing! I got so many compliments!!

Size worn: 16

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

The fit wasn't too tight, very comfortable. The shoulders were much lower than in the picture but it still looked great. It was heavier than I thought it would be but I didn't feel weighted down. There were small loops at the top on the inside so you could hang the dress. They kept coming out through the night. Despite the little issues, I would wear this dress again.

I got this dress as a backup dress and didn't end up wearing it. The dress is wonderful and I can't wait to have an event to rent this for. The dress hit below my knees and was vert conservative. This would be a perfect formal wedding guest dress.

Not for athletic arms.

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Formal Affair

If you have an athletic build this may not be the dress for you. I couldn't get my arms in it. I own several dresses by Carmen Marc Valvo in size 10 & 12 and I couldn't wear this dress. I wore the back-up that I ordered.

I loved this dress, made me feel glamorous!

Size worn: 12

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Vacation

I ordered the 10 and 12, ended up wearing the 12 (to fit my bust), sleeves run on the "skinny" side, but I do have larger arms...but it was nice to have a nice dress with sleeves, which is hard to find.

Sexy, but still elegant

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

This was supposed to be my back-up dress, but I loved it so much I had to wear it. Wore this for a fancy anniversary party for my husband's work. Totally on-trend with the lace detail, sexy without showing too much; it's definitely body-con but still elegant. My only complaint was that the sleeves were VERY tight and a little itchy (and I have skinny arms!).

Pretty dress but had some issues

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Formal Affair

Sorry for no picture, but I ended up wearing my backup dress from RTR. I took an 8 with a 10 as back up. Both were fine in the length but the sleeves were REALLY tight. My arms are not big and this was just uncomfortable. This is a dress which also looks much better with spanx to keep everything nice and firm. Not a bad dress, but tight lace on the sleeves was just too much to handle. I am glad I spent the extra $ for the back up dress

A bit small in the shoulders/arms

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress is a bit longer than what I normally wear. I think it's more appropriate for an older woman or a more conservative dresser than myself. It fit a bit small, especially in the shoulders/arms. I do have athletic shoulders/arms but I could barely get the dress over them while it fit in the waist/hips.

Beautiful dress; not a perfect fit

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Party

Beautiful dress with elegant detail; but I found the fit to be a bit off -- for myself at least. The body fits true to size, but the sleeves I found to be very tight and short. For me, the fabric between the elbow and armpit felt extremely constricted. Unfortunately, had to return this time.

Beautiful dress, but it was a hung on my body a little, I probably could have used a size 4.

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

I put a belt around the waist of the dress to synch it in a little more and it turned out perfect! Definitely would wear again, if there were a smaller size available.

This dress was great! I received many compliments on it.

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress seemed to 'stretch out' as the evening wore on. I probably could have worn the 6 but I doubt it would have been roomy enough in the bust for me. Also, it was a little long (I like my dresses to hit just above the knee). Probably could have Fashion Taped up the hem but didn't think of that until later. You need to wear a strapless bra because your shoulders are exposed; however, the neckline fit perfectly and remained 'in place' all evening. The lining of the dress matched my skin to a tee. I will definitely use Rent the Runway again, and have recommended to a few friends!
