As soon as I pulled this dress out from the RTR bag I was in love. The color is just gorgeous. I rented it to wear to Thanksgiving festivities, and not only did I feel phenomenal, but it was super comfy and allowed me to eat a normal Thanksgiving Day meal without feeling like the dress was squeezing me in. The belt created a very pretty natural waist line. Although the dress appears to be a lacy material, it was super-soft and comfortable.

I got this dress for a friend's bridal shower and it was perfect. I dressed it up with a black belt, opaque tights, and high boots since it was late December. Many compliments were received by friends and family members. It was perfect to move around in and fufill by bridesmaid's duties on that day. After the shower, I got rid of the tights and boots and replaced them for high heels just to see what it would look like. If I was going to a more formal event, this dress would have worked well also. I would recommend this dress and would rent it again.

Fit great and its a great color!

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

Had a baby a month ago and so ordered a size 0 and 2 ( I usually wear a aize 0). A big snow storm hit and the dresses were stuck in Kentucky the day before the event! So RTR called me and said they'd ship me whatever dress in stock I wanted. They happened to have the same dress but only in a size 0 but they told me it would get here before the wedding reception. I received it next day, and it fit great! I also ordered the necklace but decided not to wear it. Loved the dress, the fit, very comfortable!

I wore this dress to the American Giving Awards and it was the perfect choice!

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress is AMAZING! Nanette Lepore is one of my favorite designers. Elegant, comfortable, and I wish I could keep it! I wore it to the American Giving Awards, presented by Chase. The non-profit I founded, She's the First, was one of the honorees. The dress happened to match the Chase Community Giving logo colors -- black and blue -- so I felt beautifully on brand. My first-time Rent the Runway experience was flawless; I hope you get this dress and create your own once-in-a-lifetime memories!

Perfect for a conservative, formal event!

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This was my first experience with Rent the Runway, and I will 100% be renting again! I needed a dress for a formal business event, and this dress fit the bill -- and more! I actually first spotted it on Piperlime for close to $500, and I was surprised to see something so current on Rent the Runway for a fraction of the retail price. I was even more surprised when I received the dress and it still had the original tags on it - meaning I was the first to rent it! I got a number of compliments, and I highly recommend this dress for a conservative occasion. I would also add that I rented the Kate Spade necklace shown with this dress but decided not to wear it because I thought it made the dress too casual.

This dress fit amazingly. It draws the eye to the tiny waist and the bold color and lace are a to die for combo. I wore this for my wedding shower and received complement after complement. The dress does not come with a belt, which is why the 4 stars instead of 5, so you need to have your skinny black belt ready.

Was not unforgettable, since I did not wear.

Size worn: None

Overall fit: True to Size

This dress was very pretty but ran way too short-waisted for me, so I could not wear it. The zipper on both dresses was also VERY sticky, I could not zip it up once I had it one without help, and being alone in a hotel room in another city made that a potentially big problem.

Perfect transitional dress

Size worn: 10

This dress looks great with or without tights, which is nice if you are in between seasons. It fits true to size and the cut is very flattering. Like all of her dresses, it makes a statement while still looking classy.

Overall fit: True to Size

This dress is super flattering! I usually wear a size 4 and it fit perfectly. I am 5'9" and was worried about it being too short, but it was a cute short. I also wore it with black tights. The belt belt loops hit above my natural waste so I didn't use them and just tucked the loops under the belt.

Was very pleased with the dress, quality, color, and fit.

Size worn: 12

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

The dress fit perfectly. The color was amazing. Most of the guests wore straight black so I was glad I selected a blend with color, made me stand out and added glow to the wedding pictures. Soft lace material. Belt was a cute addition to break up the dress sections. Received many compliments on the dress too, including one from my husband!

I ordered this dress for a formal event, it was too matronly for my taste.

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I wore the size 6 in this dress. It fit, fine and there is elastic in the waist, no need for spanks or supports for tummy control. The dresswas a bit matronly looking, not my style at all. I didn't add the belt because I felt it was too much. I did wear it to church on Sunday and some of the older parishoner's told me they liked it. Wouldnn't order it again, looks better on the internet

Could work for a conservative event, work or church? It runs a little large and is long.

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

This was a little baggy for my taste, I got a six and would have gone for a four to have it even form fitting, not tight. The color is really bright and lovely, and the lace is not too old fashioned. It was nice but I felt a little like a grandma at a wedding with old college friends when I wanted to be a little more contemporary and sexy. It wasn't a great fit for a state of mind at the time. I would have loved this at a work event. it also ran a little long but I'm sure the 4 would have done the trick. It really does need the belt, or a belt, and accessories. Get a large necklace!

I rented this for an extremely important business meeting (I'm in a creative field, so this style was appropriate) and the first thing I was told was how great my dress looked. The belt cinched the waist to be flattering and the color is gorgeous. Not sure if it was the dress or my business pitch, but I was extraordinarily confident that day!

Great dress for fuller hips, as it is more of an a-line. The color is a bit more blue than purple, but it fit beautifully.

A little too cute.

Fit very comfortably and was easy to wear. Looked perfectly nice, but was just a little too cute for an evening cocktail party. Would have been great for a daytime or early evening wedding.

Pretty dress, short, cute, but nothing too too fabulous. Wore it to a client event.

Runs true to size, it is a great dress but not fancy or fabulous enough for a special occassion. I wore it to a client cocktail event and it did the job. I would purchase the dress and keep it as a good stand by dress.

Ran a little small, but overall not too bad

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Formal Affair

I wore the size 8 of this dress to my office Christmas party. Normally I would wear a size 6 or an 8 - the size 6 fit perfect until the zipper hit the bust line then it was TIGHT. I ended up wearing the size 8 and had to keep adjusting it during the evening as it would ride up as even the size 8 bustline was a little snug. I am a 36C which I didn't think was that busty! I probably would not wear this dress again due to the need to keep adjusting it most of the evening.

The color in person is wonderful! The cut of the dress is really flattering too. I was able to wear a smaller size than usual due to the cut but if you are bustier I would size up! Great style!
