Beautiful dress, many compliments

The fit was perfect for my body type. The only con I have about the dress is that it wrinkles easily. As a matter of fact, the skirt portion of the dress came wrinkled! I had to steam the dress before wearing it. Otherwise, the dress was a hit, comfortable to wear, and very unique design.

LOVE LOVE LOVE! Can't beat the rich, scarlet color and the exquisite fabric and construction- you can never go wrong with Cushnie! This is such a modern shape and the peplum is (unexpectedly) flattering- this really creates a waist! It doesn't stretch and was on the verge of being too small, so I'd size up for backup! The length was about knee length on me (as you can see from the photo). Pair this with a great statement earring and you're good to go!

Lovely dress - classic yet stylish and very form fitting.

This dress does run a little longer even though I'm 5'5", it came to just below my knee. Since my body measurements aren't at their typical, I had trouble zipping up this dress and ended up not wearing it. The fabric doesn't have much give or forgiveness in it so keep that in mind.

Sophisticated and stunning.

While a 4 was not available, and the 2 I received was just a little too tight (so I was unfortunately unable to wear it), the dress is gorgeous, classy, and subtly sexy. Will definitely look for an opportunity to rent it in the future.

I got the compliment, "stunning" more than anything.

I didn't even rent this dress. It came because Runway didn't have the dress I requested. I never wear red. I tried it on and was so pleasantly surprised. The fit was perfect. I'm 6'0, 150 pds. I got nothing but unbelievable compliments all night. I obviously can't wear that dress again because it's so distinct. Hence, what a great concept Rent the Runway is. Thank you for sending the dress even when I didn't order it.
