It fit nice, but SHORT. I am only 5'4 and there is no way I could have worn it without tights!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Sorry I dont have a great full body shot of the dress. There are slits on the side which makes the dress shorter when on than it looks in photos. It was fun to wear for a party. The inside liner is a bit tight so if you have hips and a booty, you might have to size up. For example, I could have fit the small, but the tightness of the liner made me have to size up to a medium. The dress definitely is more plum than black as it can look black in some of the photos.

So comfortable! Easy to dress up or down.

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I rented a S and M. The weird thing was that the M seemed shorter and a little tighter. I wore the S. you can't tell in the picture but there are slits on both sides of the dress. Keep that in mind because it's already pretty short. For the accessory, I chose "surprise bling" and they sent a nice necklace. Got a lot of compliments!

Amazing Surprise!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

I would of never picked this dress out online but I saw it when I went to the Showroom in NYC. It is such a cute and fun dress. The slits on the side are very high but I am short and got away wearing it without tights. It does run a little big, I could of taken in the back slightly but it didn't really matter. It still looked great on!

I rented this for a weekend in NYC - I loved ordering online and delivery directly to our hotel!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Vacation

It is a loose fitting dress - I definitely agree that it should be paired with leggings or very dark tights as it is short - I only ordered a medium as it was my backup dress, and it looked great, but probably could of worn the small too! GREAT dress - received a ton of compliments and it was incredibly comfortable to wear!

New Year's Eve Spectacular

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Other

At 5'3", 112 lbs, 32D I am often in between a small and XS. When I wear the XS I wonder what do really thing girls wear? The shape is not fitted but drapes in a flattering way. After reading other reviews I was concerned about the side slits - they are somewhat high so I made sure my tights were no-line. I loved this so much I want to rent it again for this NYE but we'll be in Miami where no tights are needed and this dress needs tights. In this dress, you get attention when you walk in the room - va-va-voom.

Loose, boxy sequined dress that is utterly glamourous, sexy and sophisticated!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Date

I added this dress to my order at the last minute - I love RTR and the customer service is the absolute best!!! Thank you to RTR customer service!!! This dress is pure glamour, understated sex appeal and sophistication! Now, I am a body-conscious dress kind of girl, and when I first tried on the dress I was disappointed - the dress does fit like a sequined boxy, loose rectangle. However, when I paired it with black platform heels, large double-hoop dangly gold earrings - WOW! The dress swayed seductively all night - and makes you actually look smaller (because the dress is so loose - who knows what size you are underneath?) I normally wear a 6 in dresses and wore the M. I got compliments all night! I can't believe I love this sequined "potato sack", as another reviewer put it, but I do! I will probably rent this one again! About the color - looked brown to me, but in certain light looks plum-ish.

I think sometimes sequins can look tacky but not on this dress! I selected true to size but I would say depending on your built it might run a little large. I rented a medium and it fit me but I think I might have been able to get away with a size small. Depends on how loose you want it to fit.

Old school glamour with a modern twist!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

This dress was absolutely gorgeous, by far one of my favorites! The color is more of an ox blood color in person and has tiny gold beads among the sequins and while the fit is looser, it hugs the body in all of the right places. I rented an XS and a S and the XS ended up fitting best. The only thing I would note is that for someone on the taller side (I'm only 5'2"), the slits on either side come up pretty high. I loved that this dress is sexy, yet not too revealing which made it perfect for the event that I went to which was on the conservative side. The event was a Gatsby theme party and I received so many compliments! One of my friends that I went with thought the dress looked so great that she told me I should look for it online to buy it. Overall, I am super pleased with the dress and would definitely rent it again.

This dress is amazing!!! I got so many compliments on it and people at Sleep No More thought I was part of the cast! Paired it with a fun fascinator! See photo. Dress fit is loose so I recommend going on size down. It's super comfortable and the purple tinge is unique.

I rented this dress for the Navy Ball in college and it was a hit! It was a little big baggier than expected and the cap sleeves didn't accentuate the best part of my arms, but I through on a belt and everyone loved the sequins.

Holy Moly this dress is short!

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Adorable dress- swingy and cute and great deep color. But it is SHORT. Like, here's my name address and zip code short. Like a shetland pony would be looking UP your skirt short. Like, guests at your event might wonder whether you are married to your husband or charging by the hour short. It is the side slits that really take it from arguably saucy to arguably inappropriate. I ended up sticking them closed with a mixture of fashion tape and band aids on the inside, which worked for 3/4 of the evening. Oops. Would not wear again.

Fun and slinky

Size worn: L

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I actually did not end up wearing this dress for the 20s party I rented it for- I wore the other one I rented. However, it's a great dress and very slinky and hits all the right places. I rented a medium and got a back up large. I would have worn the large- as the medium was a little too snug on my hips. There was a big difference between the two sizes- and the large actually was a little too big but the way the dress hangs, it actually would have still been a great option to rock!

Size sent to me was too small :(

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Other

I really wanted to wear this on my 40th birthday. It was a replacement for something I ordered that was suddenly not available so the stylist sent me this in an XS. Unfortunately it was too small for me. I am a basic 4 (5.4" 125 lbs, 34 B) and this was too small. I thought I was getting the S. Regardless it was a beautiful dress and i wish I could have made it work but had I tried it would have been an X-Rated night :) Regardless...RTR customer service was wonderful and I will def rent again! Maybe for my wedding in Sept!

The fit runs true to size! I usually wear a large and that is what I wore in this dress! I did get a medium for the backup size, and it could have fit but the large fit better all over and made me feel more comfortabel!! Great dress! And will order again from this designer!

Great dress, just way too short

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Party

They did not have the S available, but since the dress is not fitted and looked boxy, went with XS, but it was so short. The side slits came up to my underwear and you could not wear sheer hose with it, even black sheer. It looked more like a top than a dress. Did not work for what I needed it for.

Okay, but not a fave.

Size worn: S

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

I rented this dress as a back-up for NYE and thought I should change into it between dinner and drinks. I paired it with black tights and black leather closed toe shoes but I must not have the curves because the size S was unflattering. The dress doesn't hug the shape of your body at all which made it look like you were wearing a long rectangular dress. Maybe if the waist was cinched or I had thought to bring a belt, it would have saved the look, but I decided to stay in the Nanette Lepore Joan of Arc Mini to ring in the New Year.

Beautiful dress but runs small if you're tall!

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Other

This dress is gorgeous, but not a good fit if you're tall like me. The dress was not flattering at all. It hugged my curves in all the wrong places, mostly because it was too short. Not even leggings could have saved it, I just would have been uncomfortable dancing in it. It was a last minute rental for a concert in NYC so there was no back-up sizing available. Returning it for a fit & credit with RTR was a breeze, and I kind of expected it would have been too good to be true if the dress (size small was all that was available) were to fit. But it was too gorgeous to not try! I love RTR and look forward to my next rental for the holidays.

Beautiful dress

Size worn: XS

Hi, This is a beautiful dress. The color wine against the black is very rich looking. The top half of the dress was swimming on me, but the hip area felt like it fit okay. I wore it anyways because I needed something to wear to a party. I usually wear a petite size 2 or a 4 and I am only 5'1".

LOVED!

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

LOVED this dress. I wore it for my 30th birthday party and received too many complements to count. The dress is fun, flirty and has a flapper vibe to it. It fits a little loose (as it's supposed to). From reading other reviews, I was worried that the side slits would be too revealing but there is a flap of black silk fabric that covers them so I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. I would HIGHLY recommend this dress. You'll look fab and it photographs really well.

I got tons of compliments on this dress. I wore it for my 30th birthday - not too dressy, not too casual with lots of tasteful bling! I wore black leggings and high heels with the dress - there was no way you could wear this with bare lags. The dress is more of a shirt dress and the slits on the sides would reveal too much. I wore a belt with it too to cinch in the waist and that made the dress a lot more flattering on me. All around a great rent!

Loved this dress! About 10 people came up to me and told me how gorgeous the dress was. Very flattering. I have broad shoulders, so it made me look a little frumpy up top, but not horribly so. Would rent it again!

This dress was awesome! Sexy (from side slits and short length-mid thigh), but not screaming sexy with it's sack-like shape.I had so many compliments. I wore it to an event with the dress attire labeled as "cocktail formal"...there are small slits on the sides of the dress, but it was fine as it was dark at the event and we were standing the whole time. I went bare legs and strapy black heels.

LOVE this dress. I'm thin and tall with some hips (like a 0 up top, size 4 hips) so I love flowy sheaths like this. I wore a size 4 so it was loose around my hips, like the model. The dress looks even better in person- a nice change from the usual black or blue sequin dresses. The slits on the side didn't bother me too much, I wore dark black tights and danced like a maniac all night.

a super super cute dress but the slits were just a dealbreaker for me. the weather was too warm for a black tights solution and going bare-legged would have been offensive in this dress. too bad. it would have been a real winner otherwise.

i agree w/ other reviews, not a good dress if u're curvy or have hips. i could've worn the small, but due to the slits on the side (which hit nearly to the hip bone) had to opt for the medium so that i wasn't flashing everyone.

This dress is very fun, but should come with a warning--there are very high slits on the side of the dress that are a little scandolous. I wore it with black tights to take attention away from the high slits. Probably not the best choice for someone with longer legs, it was short on me and I am only 5'3".
