One of the links to hold the sash/belt broke right as I was putting it on. Other than that the dress was beautiful and fit great.

Perfect for my Black Tie event!

Size worn: MR

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I rented this dress for a black tie event and it was perfect! I do agree with the other reviewers it runs short!! I'm 5'5'' and with 2 inch heels it was a few inches off the floor. If I were wearing flats it would have been 1/2 an inch from the ground. I have a small bust, so I had to do some twists with the straps and it fit great. I got compliments all night. The material (jersey) was super comfortable, but shiny enough to look formal. I would def rent this dress again!!

This dress is amazing!

Size worn: 2L

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I found out that I needed a gown 2 days before my event and it on time and fit like a glove, and was super comfortable to wear. I used fashion tape to hold down the neckline in a place that I found more flattering but other than that everything was perfect! I highly highly highly recommend this dress!

Size worn: XSL

Overall fit: True to Size

Im 5.2 so I thought the xs regular would be long enough but with heels it was a little too short so I was happy that I also ordered the xs long it was a perfect fit! I usually wear a zero in dresses.

Very comfortable!

Size worn: SR

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I rented this dress for my husband's Military Ball. It was not very forgiving if you have any extra skin (in my case from losing a lot of weight!) and so I wore Spanx underneath. The sash for the SR was too short so I ended up using the sash to the MR dress. The length was a little too short for 2-3" heels but I didn't mind and liked that I didn't have to worry if the bottom was getting dirty. I also wore a NUBra since the dress was backless and it worked great and gave my 36D chest nice looking cleavage!

Good basic long black dress.

Size worn: 10R

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress was pretty good for my needs--I needed something long and formal, but comfortable enough to wear for a 7-hour event. The fit was pretty good, though it definitely runs short. I'm only 5'4" and could have used a few more inches on the bottom. I'll agree with other renters that the material feels and looks pretty cheap up close, but it's fine from a distance. The belt is also a little weird, as it bunches in the front.

Making everyone's head turn when I walked in the room!

Size worn: ML

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress was AWESOME!! I wore it to an Army ball with my husband and it was a HIT! It was classy, elegant, and comfortable! The dress feels like a jersey knit but it's shiny. The sash accentuates your waist and the slit in the front adds a unique touch. I got comments all night that the dress was like an old Hollywood/Marilyn Monroe-esque dress. Only con was the length! I'm 5'9 and it was just perfectly on the ground. I wore 2" heels and it was off the ground a touch. I would have preferred it dragged but it really wasn't bad at all. I wouldn't get this dress if you were taller than 5'10.

This dress was so comfortable to dance in all night, but still made a great statement!

Size worn: 2R

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

Loved wearing this dress to formal, but it was a lot shorter than I expected. I am 5'4 with pretty short legs, and I had to wear flats. Even with flats, the dress still barely grazed the floor. The two panels of fabric were great because you could wrap them any way you liked which was fun. I also made the dress look a little different than the model by twisting the straps before making them into a halter.

Size worn: XSR

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Formal Affair

I was really glad that I got 2 sizes, an extra small and a small. Surprisingly, the extra small fit better. I wore it low cut in the front and tied a knot in the back with the sash. Luckily, I wore this two nights in a row, once with red and gold accessories, and another with a almost Tiffany blue and gold. Perfect for lots of things!

Size worn: SR

Fit was very flattering, dress is forgiving because its jersey knit. You can't wear a bra with it. Small was big and medium was way too big. It runs big, I am 5'8 and didn't need the long.

compliments such as, " you make pregnancy hot." and my husband beaming with pride telling me how beautiful i looked.

Size worn: LR

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

going to weddings pregnant isn't always fun. especially if you have to pony up for a formal maternity dress that you may only wear once. thats when i thought i'd check out rent the runway, and i'm glad i did. not only was i one of the most glam guests but i was 27 weeks pregnant! i felt beautiful and comfortable. the top was a lil big, but i customized it with some double sided tape and twisting of the alter ties. i love the bump friendly section! i love RTR!

A bit disappointed

Size worn: 0R

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

Thought this dress was a classic, can't fail basic formal gown. The material, however, feels like that of a cheap Halloween costume and even at 5'2 I found the dress to be a bit short when worn with heels. It also has a seam all the way up the middle that was sort of awkward, and the bust area has a LOT of fabric (granted, I'm a 32B). Overall I wouldn't recommend is dress...there are so many better options on this site!

Not only was everything delivered on time and I loved the options, but the customer service was flawless! I am a little type A and asked a few questions about fit, length, style, etc, and the online chat helpers were amazing! RTR is amazing and this dress was gorgeous-- make sure you ask questions and take length into consideration as it was a little long depending on what heels you wear!

Plain and Simple

Size worn: SL

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

I rented this dress for a black tie wedding, definitely a safe bet dress but was a little too plain jane for me. The fabric also looked a little cheap and was not the black tie elegance I was going for. I'm usually a size 4 and this dress was good in length and size, so fits very true to size but made my 34C bust look huge!

This dress is amazing! however, LENGTH WISE size up! I am 5"9 and I wore 4 inch heels the SMALL LONG was TOO SHORT! If you're up against the wall about what size to order and your're tall like me, order the medium long. This dress is so simple and elegant and very comfortable!

Beautiful comfortable dress

Size worn: ML

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I rented this dress for my husband's formal work gala. I ordered the ML which fit great for length. I am 5'8 and the dress hit right above the floor with 2 inch heels. My only challenge with the dress was the top. I struggled with filling out the dress and I am a 36C. There seemed to be a lot of fabric which it turn needed lots of taping to make sure things stayed where they needed to be. The dress itself is very comfortable...the belt does slip alttle due to the slick fabric of the dress. A backless bra would not work with this dress as the back is to low; you will need another alternative. Overall though..I would rent this dress again.

Overall fit: True to Size

The front of the halter is VERY roomy, almost baggy (I'm a C cup) which made me uncomfortable, so I had to use lingerie tape to secure it. The back is too low for a strapless bra, you need a NuBra or similar. Also, the belt is a tie-it-yourself, it does not come neatly tied like I thought. The material is very slippery so if you have a tummy (I do from a recent c section), the belt tends to slip toward your ribs and accentuate the belly. The slit in the front is in the middle, not off to the side like I expected. I'm glad I had a coupon or I would have been very disappointed.

I wore this dress to a wedding recently and received so many compliments. I am normally a size 8. I ordered a small and medium. The small fit perfectly, but was not long enough. The medium fit well. This dress is very flaw-forgiving and extremely comfortable! I would definitely order it again!

I personally found that there was far too much material in this design around the bust area. I am a 34C but cannot imagine it looking any better on a bigger chest. I also felt it looked cheap like something from Joyce Leslie. I would not recommend this dress.

The dress is beautiful but I think the long is extremly long. I had almost 5'11" and I had a big heel and the long size was very much too long. Going to try again with the regular length b/c it's just stunning.

This is the first dress i have rented from RTR, and i am very impressed with the customer service. Recently i had lost a few pounds and normally fit into a size 6. So when ordering i ordered a 6 and 8, when i received both the dresses they were both too big. I called RTR and they sent me a 4 to my work the very same day. I wore the dress to a black tie event and it looked fabulous! the pictures dont give the dress justice, its even better in person. it truly is a beautiful designer dress, the way it draped my body was amazing! thanks rtr

I'm tall, so I ordered a long but I still had to wear my back up flats because it hit right at my ankle. I wore this dress to a white tie event and left for a gala. I looked wonderful and tasteful (i'm a 36DD) and there is enough fabric to cover me up. Over all a great gown!

This dress worked beautifully for me. Since I'm a tad on the short side of regular, I had to wear 5 inch platforms to avoid treading on the hem, but the effect was amazing. I paired it with deco-tiered earrings and a deco bracelet by Badgley Mischka, rented from RTR as well. Received many compliments. The neckline is gorgeous -- works well with a u-shaped bra taped very low in the back. Would definitely wear again.

Loved this dress! It looks even better in person than in the photos. I ordered both a size 8 and 10 in regular length. The 8 was too short to wear with heels, but was a better fit. Because of the length I wore the size 10. It is a very flattering cut and very comfortable too. I also ordered the gold Halston Heritage belt (shown in the photos) and it made the dress! I can't imagine wearing the dress without the belt.

I ordered this dress as a backup for a black tie event. Although I didn't end up wearing it, I still tried it on and it fit well but I just didn't love it like the previous reviewers. I don't feel it "looks" like a designer dress. I modeled it for my mom and she said "this one just doesn't look like anything special". Also sent pictures to some friends and they agreed. I'd recommend checking out some of the other dresses that will look much more glamorous (I went with the Badgley Mischka Belle of the Ball gown - fabulous.) Also, the slit only came slightly above my knee which was disappointing.
