Flirty fun party dress for Bachelorette

Size worn: S

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Party

I didn't end up wearing this dress because it was cut to short for me. The dress fit great up top, but it was too short to cover my butt. I loved the racer back, but it was just too short for me to wear. If you have a bubble butt, beware this may not be the best dress for you.

I had rented this as my backup dress in case the BCBG dress didn't fit, but since the BCBG dress was a winner I lent this dress to a friend. She loved it and it looked great on her! It is sparkly and sexy at the same time! I would recommend wearing a racerback bra to eliminate the bra lines, but I would rent this again as my first choice!

RTR packaging was very nice. The dresses came in a garment bag- very professional service!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I wore this dress for a bachelorette party. The Bride requested sequin/blingy attire. This dress was perfect! Glad RTR sent me 2 sizes! I have a longer torso so I am glad I had the medium to fall back on. The small fit in the waist and bust area, but was way too short. I wore the medium. I lost a little bit of my waist line in the dress, but still felt like the dress was flattering. I did notice by the end of the night that the sequins were rubbing against my arm quite a bit. But I just expected that to happen with a sequin dress. It is the perfect party dress. I wore an electric blue blazer to dinner, then lost the jacket for a night of dancing! Thank you RTR for a great dress and a great night!

It's supposed to fit a little lose, but I wanted it a little snug since it was my birthday so I went with the XS. I'm normally a size 4, but it fit great! Such a comfortable dress to wear all night and got tons of compliments as well. I wore it with simple black pumps.

Comfy, low maintenance, dazzling dress. I would rent it again.

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

This was my first RTR rental so I decided to go a little fit "safe". This dress did the trick. It has a comfy jersey lining and is a great color. Needed to use some fashion tape because it slipped a little on one side and showed the top of my bra (by the way, make sure you have a convertible bra since it's a racer back). Otherwise a great, comfy fit. The dress would hide a lot of figure flaws since it doesn't really cling tight to the body. The XS was the perfect size for me, the larger size bunched a little in the back because of the extra fabric that I didn't need. It was great for the charity event and I received a lot of complements.

It had a comfortable lining and some stretch that allowed for free movement all night long. I felt fabulous with all the sequins. It wasn't too long on my 5' petite frame, either.

Great dress, lots of sparkle perfect for NYE.

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

The dress fit true to size, it was a little on the short side for my taste but not to the point of where it was uncomfortable for me to wear out. I don't think this would look very good on someone who is very busty, just because of how low the neckline and how short the dress was. You also need to wear petals or fashion tape, no bra. I am 5'4" and tiny on top, it fit me nicely. The blue definitely popped in a see of black and silver dresses. I would recommend as a fun party dress.

I wore this dress to my Sophomore Homecoming, and I felt so beautiful! My date and friends loves it.

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress fit perfectly! It wasn't too short, or too long either, and was very easy to dance in. Because my bust size is a 32B, I did look a little flat chested, but that wasn't any major problem. The sequins were scratching a little by the end of the night but nobody else had the dress and I was getting compliments all night long! This was my first RTR dress and I'm definitely going to rent again.

Having the complimentary extra size is what made me love the dress. My first pick would have been way to big for me. Without the extra size I wouldn't have felt comfortable in that dress.

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Formal Affair

The moment I found this dress on RTR I knew that I'd wear it to my high school homecoming. I ordered a small (which i normally would wear) and a extra small (complimentary). The dress arrived and I ended up wearing the XS because it fit my body better whereas the S was shapeless on. I'd recommend renting your normal size and a size down just incase. Also the length is great, and the dress looks super glam & luxurious because the sequins are rectangular instead of circular. Also the sequins didn't ich or irritate my skin which is really sensitive. All in all amazing dress and I'd recommend renting it for an event that you want to sparkle at.

Beautiful dress! If you have a bit to cover up in your midsection (like me!) this works like a charm. Flattering and eye-catching!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Absolutely fabulous! I wore this dress to a local bachelorette event and received tons of compliments. I'm a fair-skinned red head, so the blue looked fabulous with my coloring. Fit wise, it was perfect. The mid-section is loose enough to not feel self-conscious, but tight enough highlight your shape. Pair it with killer heels and great earrings, and hit the town!

Although it doesn't show off your figure, this dress has a fabulous sparkle with unusually shaped sequins and a neckline that allows you to wear almost any bra. I wore it to a NYE formal with sheer black nylons. I loved the color (somewhere between royal and navy) and the chance to indulge in drinks and appetizers without having to suck in! Go a size smaller than you think you'd need.

This dress look adorable on the model, but I had problems for my body type. I'm fairly pear shaped, which was the first problem. The large was way too big in the chest, but the medium was so short it showed my butt cheeks. I ended up wearing the medium and pinning it to be a shirt length with skinny jeans. It looked adorable, but would have hoped for a better fit to begin with.

I rented this as a backup dress for my friends bachelorette party in Vegas and I loved this one so much I had to wear it instead. I ordered the extra small- it was just a tiny bit big in tummy area and length so I put a thin navy belt with it and it worked like a charm. the thing I loved about this dress the most were the sequins. They weren't your typical round ones, they were rectangular in shape, giving the dress really great movement and texture. if you need a dress that will really make you shine, don't hesitate on getting this one!

This dress was great and random people all over Vegas complimented me on it! =)

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I rented this dress for my birthday in Vegas and it was perfect!! I got both the small and medium sizes because I didn't know which would work out better; I'm usually a 4 or a 6. The medium was a little loose at the top but it was longer than the small. The small fit better on the top, it was still a tad loose but I used fashion tape, but it was definitely short. I didn't have a problem with it, but some might. You can sit in the dress, but again it is short so just be ready for it! Haha. Also, if your arms are by your side a lot, the sequins may rub a little on the underside of your arm. Overall it was so perfect for Vegas!

I loved this dress. The minute I slipped it on I felt gorgeous. I wore this to homecoming and I loved being the only girl wearing that dress. Rent The Runway is a great place to get a unique dress. It was also really comfortable. I didn't worry about it riding up or sliding down. I didn't even notice the sequins scratching my arms. Definetly rent this dress.

I highly recommend this dress but if your REALLY tinny then don't get it because it runs pretty big.

I wore this dress to one of my closest friend's Sparkly night out for her bachelorette weekend and it was perfect. I was definitely one the most sparkly people there! The blue is very pretty too, a true, bright blue. One con, the dress can feel a little rough on the inside of your arms as they rub against the dress! Guess that is the price you pay to really sparkle!

Great dress for the right body

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I ordered this as a back-up dress and did not end up using. It is a cute dress but I felt a little homecoming-ish for the party I was attending. Also, this dress would be very flattering if you wanted to conceal some midsection flaws and accentuate great legs but I usually rely on having my waist show so my hourglass comes thru (hips are too wide/bust too big to lose waist usually) and the cut of this dress coupled with the sequins did not allow for that. Also, this dress is s true MINI!! I love the look of a true mini and actually think it is the way to complement shorter legs but be prepared! At 5' 4 3/4" in an XS this dress was booty cheek grazing!

Size worn: XS

The dress ran very big. I had to add a black belt so it was not loose, and pinned the straps up so it did not show my bra. I also used dress tape to shorten the hem so that it was a bit "sexier." However, even with the alternations this dress definitely made an impression.

This dress is very pretty and the color is a rich blue. The cut is fairly simple--not much structure. I'm 5'9" and it felt pretty short, but I went with it anyways. The dress was a lot tighter on me than on the model in the photo--just keep that in mind if you are curvy. I wore it to a cocktail party with heels and felt fine. I'd recommend it for a Vegas trip or a similar fun/young outing. I might have felt a little too racy wearing it to a formal/black tie event.
