Everyone loved the dress and said I looked beautiful! Perfect birthday night!

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I loved this dress! I was a little unsure of the color since I have yellow undertones but the color was richer than the color and worked great on my skin tone. The fit was perfect though you definitely need to have a small waist or size up for this dress. I loved the draping and shoulder accent. Other reviews mentioned trouble with the lining but mine was fine. I paired this dress with nude heels, a purple clutch and the raindrop LeMer Collection watch. This was a great dress for my birthday. I will definitely rent this dress again.

Perfect Fit, Lining Too Long

Size worn: 12

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

I tried on this dress at the showroom first and had to order it- perfect fit for my curves. The only reason I didn't give this dress 5 stars is because the dress that was delivered had a lining that was slightly longer than the hem. I ended up pinning the front hem up on the day I had to wear it which was slightly annoying but do-able. Overall, I got a ton of compliments for the dress and felt great in it, but I wish the lining had been a better fit.

Beautiful dress; tight at the waist

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Other

The dress has gorgeous material, and the cut of the folds is very flattering. I ordered a size 2 but normally wear a size 0. The waist band had no stretch and was uncomfortably tight. I recommend the dress, but I suggest going up a size.

I felt like Joan from Mad Men!

Size worn: 10

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Other

As other reviewers have mentioned, the fit around the waist in snug. The fit around the bust and hips was perfect. This dress accentuates your assets without being too revealing. I wore this dress to my son's Catholic school auction. Within five minutes of walking in the door I received many compliments - my favorite was from our priest, who shook my hand and said I looked "stunning." Overall, very happy and will definitely use RTR again.

Best rental yet!

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

So, the dress does run small - I usually take a zero and the two fit PERFECTLY!. If you do not have a small waist line - I would almost recommend going two sizes up. I have a 23 - 24 inch waist and usually this is a place where dresses are rather loose on me. Even in the two - the waist on the dress fit me perfectly - on the snug side even. I am almost at a loss for words in terms of how much I love this dress. Very few dresses can emphasize your assets the way this one does, while still keeping them covered up. I would love, love, love to own this dress.

Runs very small in the waist, I couldn't eat much at all....BUT sometimes that's the price of beauty, I loved this dress!

Many, many compliments!

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

I love this dress. From the awesome color to the unique style, the dress has a total celebrity vibe to it. Definitely runs on the smaller side, I'm not very large at all up top and still felt a bit squeezed in the rib area. I'm usually between a 2 or a 4 and I wore the 4. I wish I could see this dress in my closet everyday, but we had one great night together!

When 2 cars drove by, each stopping to complement the dress!

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

This dress is beautiful! I was a bit worried as it was only available in a size 8, and I usually wear a 6, but the 8 fit like a glove! I would recommend sizing up in this dress. It was very comfortable and easy to dance in, though I did have a bit of trouble stepping into a SUV and had to hike it up a bit to make the step. Very flattering dress, I got tons of complements...including a few people driving by in their cars! I highly recommend this dress.

This outfit made me feel like I brought it. Teeeny tiny waist though, definitely order sizes up. Wore it with spanx which helped smooth things out. Great dress for a party or night out.

Zipper stuck so didn't get to wear it.

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Other

This is an absolutely fabulous dress, very chic, great color, and I was heartbroken that I didn't get to wear it, but the zipper got stuck and even the tailor couldn't fix it. The "Runway" people were very nice about it but didn't have another one to send, and anyway, all the advice had been to get the next size, which hadn't been available, and which I definitely would have needed because it does run very small in the waist. Oh well.

Amazing dress- makes you look Mad Men Joan- curves and all.

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Date

Great fit- VERY tight on the waist (a waist cincher is ideal with this dress). Gets sweaty quickly though - the material is very moisture absorbent. Also, the zipper is EXTREMELY hard to maneuver. My fiance remarked if I bought the dress he'd make me promptly return it in order to get the darn zipper fixed.

Gorgeous color, but it runs small!

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

I was so excited to get this Christian Siriano dress in the mail - especially since I was such a huge fan of him on Project Runway. When I tried on the dress, it was a bit too small for my bustier figure, but the waist and hips fit perfectly. Since I rented the dress for a wedding, I ended up not wearing it, not wanting the "girls" to take any attention away from anything else going on that day :) The color of the dress was absolutely GORGEOUS and I recieved exactly what I was hoping for. I would definitely rent this dress again, but in a different size.

Perfect, so chic!

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

I read all the reviews and most said to size up, so I ordered my normal size 6 and went up a size for my extra and the 8 fit like a glove. The lining of the dress is so soft and made the dress so comfortable. I got a lot of looks and compliments!

Great dress! Very flattering

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

I ordered this dress in a size 4 and 6 based on other reviews that said it ran extremely small. I usually wear a 0 or 2 and the 4 fit perfectly. The color is vibrant and looks great with a tan. The dress is form fitting but still classy. I would definitely recommend it! I was also very pleased with RTR's customer service.

Awesome dress, but stained.

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

This dress would have been perfection, but it was stained, like majorly stained all over. But, on the upside, RTR sent me an even more amazing dress! Anyhow, this dress definitely runs one size too large. I'm usually a 4 and the 6 was perfect. If you're chesty I could see going up two sizes. The fit is incredibly flattering due to the way it cinches tightly at the waist. It hides imperfections and the color is amazing- totally brightens up any complexion and makes you look your best.

Beautiful color

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

I loved the material and color of this dress. It is also made very well to make any waist look amazing. It does however run small. I normally wear a 0 and ended up renting a 2 and a 4 for this one. I wore the 2. It is also longer that it appears on the picture, for me at least. I ended up pinning the sides and that worked very well for me. It also wrinkles very easily. Something to remember if wearing it for an event that involves a long drive.

This is a gorgeous dress. My husband LOVED how this dress looked(he never notices anything, ever). It creates a real hourglass shape because it nips in quite a bit at the waist.

This is just beautiful. No complaints at all. I will keep this dress on me forever. Go two sizes up. Do not get your usual size; it will not fit.

great dress

The dress was beautiful -- it does run a bit small but fit beautifully. The dress I received had a stain on the back, which was upsetting initially. However, the stylists at RTR fixed the problem and even refunded my rental price. I still wore the dress and I got compliments on it all night. I would buy the real thing if it wasn't so expensive!

Gorgeous

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

This dress is stunning, unfortunately it has a very small waist for the size. Bust and waist felt like a true 6, but if you don't have a proportionally small midsection, you may want to size up.
