This dress was so breezy and comfortable for a humid outdoor party.

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

The dress was much longer on me than the model (which I expected). It was really comfortable yet flattering. The print if very subtle which is great if you like to accessorize.

I rented this dress to renew my wedding vows. It was the perfect combination of sweet and sexy.

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

The dress did seem quite long and wasn't very flattering when I first put it on, and it is bigger/looser than a size 0. However, I pulled it up so it poofed out over the belt which made it an incredibly sexy short length,and created a very flattering look to the top. Overall I recommend this dress and was very very pleased with it. I felt incredibly beautiful and sexy.

I absolutely loved this dress! I wore it to my junior prom and it was absolutely perfect for the occasion. It's a great dress for dancing and enjoying some of that late spring/early summer heat.

Getting my graduation images taken in the secret garden.

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Other

I rented this for a client for her graduation portraits. The dress is very cute, but the on-line photo makes it look much more poofy on the bottom and lighter in color. My client was smaller in the chest area and only 5'3" so the dress was way too large for her frame. It came below her knees and just hung off of her. I would recommend this dress from someone with a curvier and taller frame.

The dress made a great night out with friends even better

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

Wore this to a birthday party in NYC. Even though it is very much a daytime dress, it still transitioned well to going out to dinner and bars. With the summer heat it was great to have a light weight dress that wasn't skintight. As other reviews mentioned it is pretty long despite how it is modeled; I wasn't able to pin the bottom layer like customers, instead I pulled a lot of the fabric over my belt which raised the hem line.

i wore the dress all day and night in the hot nashville summer - i was comfortable the entire day since the fabric is light and flowy. it was also very easy to pack since it didn't wrinkle and didn't take up much suitcase space.

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Vacation

i rented this dress to bring to nashville and fell in love. it does run a little bit - i had to tie the belt extra tight and blouse it a little to make it work, but it definitely looked and felt great. i paired the dress with cowboy boots and a long gold necklace - i fit right in at country music fest!

Just a great spring/summer dress if you want something special!

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I wore this for my high school graduation and I loved it! Like the person below me said, it's a little bit long with all three tiers so I safety pinned the third one up so that it wasn't visible and it was a better length. The size 0 fit really well and it was so flattering and just a really cute summery dress -- I'd definitely recommend!

I felt like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman at the racetrack with my beautiful hat and and dress!

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Other

When I saw this dress come out on the RTR facebook page, I just knew it was going to be the perfect spring dress for a day at the horse races. It was breezy and light and just all around gorgeous. The only downside to the dress was that it has three layers at the bottom and I thought the last layer was excessive. I'm 5'3, so I felt that the dress was just a bit too long with the third layer. It hits right at the knee, and I prefer my dresses to fall slightly above the knee to length my legs, since I am somewhat petite. The dress looks a LOT shorter on the model, but I guess that's because she's 5'10. I ended up using some of the garment tape that I had received with a previous RTR rental and just taped up the bottom layer up on the inside so that it was no longer visible. I had a wonderful day and I felt like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman at the racetrack with my beautiful hat and and dress. I didn't bet on any horses, but I'll bet you won't regret renting this lovely dress!

ethereal fabric and ruffles

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Formal Affair

The dress was very loose, as other reviewers stated. The color and pattern and fabric all came together perfectly to complete a springy, fairy-like look. The front was a tad low-cut, but fashion tape secured it. I wore it with a nu-bra and tied the belt very tightly to create a more fitted silhouette and a shorter length

Not for me!

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

Dress wasn't what I expected. Has no shape to it at all. Was very flowy and loose, which could be nice but I have a large bust and a bra didn't look right. The waist string didn't end up coming in the bag, not sure why but, I didn't end up wearing it at all.

Wore this on an anniversary date during the summer and got tons of compliments!

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Date

The fit is really nice, but not recommended for anyone who is curvy because it is more flattering when it is more flowy. The material is so soft, and I loved the details in the pattern. I rented the necklace that this dress is pictured with, and it paired so perfectly.

Cute dress, nothing special.

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

Whenever I order from Rent the Runway, I want the dress to be truly special. This dress, however, is not. While it is a pretty, feminine dress, the fit is fairly bulky. The tie around the waist seems cheap, and in turn makes the lower half of the dress quite bulky. Overall, it is a lot of fabric for a little dress.

Unfortunately, I did not love this dress!

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: True to Size

This dress is definitely not as ivory as it looks in the photos - more brown/tan. The size I wanted to wear (0) didn't come with the waist tie, and the size up was much too large. I tried to use the tie/belt from the larger size, but it was permanently attached to the dress. A little disappointing!

Size worn: 0

I likes this dress, but there was not a belt on it like I was expecting. Thankfully I had a skinny belt to pair with it, otherwise it was hanging off of me. After cinching the waist, it is really cute and fun to wear. Great date night dress!

This dress is not meant for a petite person. It's very cute, but it is too long for someone 5'3/under and too baggy, even if you have some curves

Flattering

Size worn: 4

I rented this dress for a daytime outdoor event. It was very pretty but a little on the loose side. The third layer was much too long so I also used double sided tape to hide the layer and you couldnt even notice. I would recommend!
