SUCH an eye-catching party dress!!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
Loved the color, and the sparkles around the neckline really make it a special dress! The only thing was the fit definitely ran large, I ended up wearing the smaller of my two sizes and still had to belt the extra fabric. Even so-- looked great and had a great time in this dress!!

Rent this dress!!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
My first experience with RTR and will definitely not be my last! I felt like a celebrity - this dress is so glamorous, I got compliments all night. The other reviews mentioned that it runs large (and it definitely does) so I ordered a S and XS. The style is very flow-y and a bit on the baggy side so I would recommend garment tape as well. Gorgeous color and the neckline is to die for.

Fun & Flirty Dress!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
Beautiful lightweight material, vibrant color. Bottom fits on the snug side for us curvier girls. I am a size 2/4 on the bottom and this fit snug but stretches a bit throughout the night so it was perfect. The top is very loose fitting and I forgot to get fashion tape to hold the dress in place but I saw there were little straps on the shoulder to put around your bra straps and they worked great!!! I recommend this dress!

Beautiful color, runs large up top.
Size worn: M
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
The beading on the top was very heavy and kept sliding down. I ordered a M and L and even the M was too loose; The bottom however fit perfect. Over all I loved the dress it was perfect for my birthday party on the town. The only reason I deducted a star was because I had to keep pulling it into place all night.

Comfy with a great touch of glam
Size worn: M
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
I rented the dress for a night out at a club in Vegas and it looked great! The neckline and the sleeves added a nice touch of glitter and glam and the color of the dress is beautiful. It was also super comfortable for dancing and hanging out. This was my second style so I didn't get a back-up size, but I'm pretty sure that the large (which I would've chosen) would have been way too big, so the medium was perfect. Sorry I don't have any full length shots of the dress! I uploaded the two that came closest.

I felt this dress was fantastic!!! It ran a bit large but the color looked great on my complexion (olive) along with the California sun bouncing off the beading. The top was a big heavy due to all the beading, but nothing unbearable

Versatile and comfortable, but a little big.
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Vacation
I'm usually a size 6 in dresses and wore this in the XS. I am not sure if the one I got was a bit stretched around the bottom band, it seemed like it might have been worn in a bit, but it was a little loose fitting, I wouldve preferred it a little tighter. I don't have a butt at all, though, so that could have been part of the problem. Overall it was a very fun dress to wear, very comfortable and eye catching and super easy for a night out in Vegas. I highly recommend this dress, and may rent it in the coral color sometime, too!

Loved the sparkles! Great dress to celebrate my 21st birthday!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
Again, I'm so pleased with my Rent the Runway experience. The reviews were so helpful in the case of this dress. I had no problems with the sizing because I already know what to expect (so glad I ordered the medium for my back-up!). Even though the top fits loosely, it is still very flattering. The beading is so wonderful; I love sparkly accents! I also ordered tights from Rent the Runway. They were $6 when I bought them, which was a great deal, especially because they turned out to be really comfortable! Overall, I'm so glad to have rented this dress for my birthday!

hot dress
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
Loved the dress, but I probably shouldn't have worn it to my school's formal since I like to get down on the dance floor. It's a little skimpy to be moving around a lot in, especially around the bust area. Got a lot of compliments, though, and it was very comfortable to wear. Fashion tape is your best friend.

I loved the ease of picking a dress from RTR! It was great to see the dresses on other women!
Size worn: L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I ordered the M and L and could have worn either. Chose the large as the skirt wasn't as snug and I knew I'd be dancing and sitting during the party and didn't want to worry about it inching up. I am between a 10-12 in sizes...just depends on the designer. The fashion tape is a must as the neckline is plunging. The tape stayed in place and I didn't have to worry about it all night. I chose the Kendra Scott blue agate earrings and they were perfect. I also rented the silver glitz bangles...but they were too small to fit over my wrist. So ladies with a wider hand take note if you are going to rent these. I was bummed as they were so beautiful. I loved this dress as it showed off my assets in all the right places (legs/butt/chest) and hid the part i wanted to hide (tummy). I think if I had to wear this again i might try to add a belt like some others did to add a bit more definition to the midsection but that may have highlighted my tummy as well. i I had a great experience with RTR and will be renting from you again!

Classy and comfortable
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Vacation
Rented this for tropical vacation. It was fitted around the butt/hips and loose up top (perfect for hiding belly!). I probably could have worn a M for it to be less tight around the hips. Used a small amount of fashion tape on the front. Overall it was a great dress. Looking back at my pics vs. model pics, I realized I actually wore it wrong - didn't put the sleeves on! Oops. No one (including myself) seemed to notice...

I love this dress so much I've rented it multiple times. Great things - 1) it hits at mid-thigh for someone my height so if you like a cute, short dress - i'd recommend this for 5'5" women and above. 2) It's best for a large chest as it drapes on top and perfectly highlighted my chest area. 3) the color is to die for! GORGEOUS.

Very fitted at the bottom, and very loose at the top. I wore a belt to make the dress more flattering. The V neck was very deep and I had to use tape to keep my bra from showing the whole time.

Size worn: XS

I wasn't expecting as much draping on the top, which is why I said it runs a little large; definitely size down one when you order. The dress is super stretchy and comfortable, and looks great with sky high heels. Expect a beautiful dress in a beautiful color with just enough sparkle to make it stand out from the crowd!

I had a blast in this dress. I wore it to a party in downtown Atlanta and it was perfect. Definitely get tape to hold the top up and size down for your extra size. I ordered a S and an XS and the S looked ridiculous on me. It wouldn't let me pick XS on the review, but that's what I ended up wearing.

Getting the dresses on time and in good condition.
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
I rented this dress with the "Silver glitz bangle set," "Danielle blue agate earrings," and "Georgie clutch" and accessorized with a belt (because there's essentially just elastic that separates the top of the dress from the bottom). I normally wear a size 4 dress, but had to wear an XS in this dress. I'm also fairly large chested; however, you lose all sense of bra size or boob size in this dress... which my husband didn't care for. I liked the short length... short even for someone who's 5'2".

Wore this to the clubs in Vegas and absolutely loved it. It was the perfect fit, the perfect length so that I didn't have to worry about it, everything. Only warning is that if you plan to ever bend over at all, tape it down. It's a bit low cut so leaning over isn't really an option.

Size worn: S

This runs a little large up top, it's probably because of the way the fabric drapes. I have a larger chest but my shoulders and build are pretty petite, it's definitely roomy so I would order a smaller size as your back up. It's a beautiful dress and the neckline sparkle looks great in pics!

This was the 2nd dress I rented in one order- so I got this dress for $25! Knowing that I had the most glamorous, most unique, and best priced dress for my birthday celebration is a memory I will never forget!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this to my 21st birthday last week, and it was perfect for the party and night of dancing! The bottom definitely hugged my curves better than it shows on the model, but it was perfect if you're curvy and want a flattering dress. The middle was loose and hid everything in the stomach area. The only problem I encountered was one of my own fault- I forgot about the fashion tape that RTR sent with the dress! Definitely a couple pictures that showed a little more of my top than I would like, but overall I would rent this dress 10 times out of 10! Party on :)

The compliments on my dress keep rolling in when anyone sees my pictures!
Size worn: L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this dress for New Year's Eve and was really happy with how the dress turned out. The bottom of the dress is very fitted, so on me the M was a little snug, and the L was a little big on top, but with the dress tape that was included I didn't have to worry about adjusting it all night. The silver neckline is actually stitched silver beading, I thought it would be sequins, but this actually made it much more elegant looking and photographed really well. The blue was a stood out in a room of black and silver and the silk was heavy enough that I didn't feel naked. I'm 5' 5" and it wasn't so short on me that I felt uncomfortable, it was just right. Great experience and I'm looking forward to another successful rental from RTR!

I did not care for this dress. The beading was falling off and it's very flashy. It looks subtle in the picture but in person it is shiny and sparkly. It may be nice for a night out with the girls, but it was not appropriate for the occasion I had to attend.

Great bachelorette party dress & bump-friendly
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size

Wore with a small baby bump to a bachelorette party. Color is beautiful and cut is flattering, especially for a large bust. I'm 5'3", small & short-waisted with a large bust and the Medium fit perfectly (normally wear a 6). There is quite a bit of material on top & a bit low-cut so a smaller chest may not fill it out as well and may find the sizing to run large.
