I wore this dress to a winter formal and it fit perfectly. The nude slip under the lace makes the dress extremely sexy and the length was perfect. The only minor problem I had it was that you have to put dress tape on the top because the boning is a bit worn and the top corners starts to fold over and become a bit of a nuisance. Besides that, the dress was comfortable and gorgeous.

The dress is a great material. It is flattering in its fit, and fun to wear. The lace is totally sexy and can mask anything you want to cover up. It is a great party dress or formal dress. I wore it to a formal and got so many compliments on it.

Great dress--rented this and another for a wedding weekend in atlanta. I ended up wearing the long dress to the wedding and this one out the night before--it is less conservative since its lacey and strapless. Wore it out to a club and it fit nicely, true to size

I could not get over how beautifully this dress hugged my body. Even when I was trying it on, the second I zipped it up I felt amazing! Gorgeous material, the lace overlay works so well and hardly rides up. It had some stretch in it which allowed me to dance all night! If you have a larger bust I would definitely recommend wearing a strapless bra even though the bust was fitted. Overall beautiful dress, wish I could have kept it!

Loved the lace! I wore this dress for Valentine's Day and it was perfect. It ran a bit small on me, so i went with the 4 rather than the 2. It was sexy and elegant at the same time. Highly recommended it!

One con, due to wear and tear, piping on the top of the dress flips out and needs to be adjusted throughout the night so that it stays laying flat.

Dress was great, however, it was a little uncomfortable due to the boning that is inside the dress. Also, the top of the dress kept folding out as well making it look a little weird, but overal looked good.

I loved the lace design. It ran small. I am usually a 4 or 6. The design of the top was not my favorite part of the dress, but I liked the rest of it. The top of the dress & under the arms needed tape as it tended to roll over a little (on both sizes). Maybe it was a structure issue? Overall, it was great! Easy to dance in for Homecoming!

I absolutely loved the dress. It was gorgeous and great for a wedding. It was classy for a wedding, yet still form fitting and flattering. I usually were a 0 and wore a 2. The 0 fit, it was just a little tighter then I would have liked. I wanted to be comfortable in it for the wedding. I would definitely rent this dress again!

I love Nicole Miller dresses, they always look so good on a variety of body types and this dress was no different. I wore this to my friend’s bachelorette party and it fit the occasion perfectly. I probably wouldn’t wear it to a wedding as its very sexy but it’s perfect for a night out or New Year’s event.

This dress looks amazing but really has an unforgiving fit. I rented both the 4 and 6 and went with the 6. The zipper is really hard to work and it wasn't the easiest to get on. I also had a problem like some other reviewers with the bust wanting to flip over, exposing the nude slip underneath. The fashion tape helped somewhat, but I still experienced this. Seems like if you have more than an A cup this will probably occur. Otherwise the dress is incredible...I wore this out the night before my wedding and my poor fiance had to chase guys away!

I loved this dress. It was very comfortable and fit well. I felt great in it and wasn't constantly pulling down the hemline. It is pretty short, and I don't know if I would have worn it outside of Vegas, but it was perfect for that.

Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I ordered a size 4 and 6, and ended up wearing the size 6 since the chest area had more room. The dress was great, and I loved that it has a little stretch to it. My only complaint would be that the sides would fall over a bit, showing the nude color lining, and I kept having to pull the dress up and adjust the lining. I did use double sided tape, but that didn't help much. But, I still really like the dress and did receive a lot of compliments!

Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress is very sexy and sophisticated. I was really nervous about it at first because it's a lot more form fitting than what I usually wear, but I was really happy with it. Yes, I wore spanx under-neither (no way I would have worn it without them!!) but I'm not even sure they were necessary. The chest area is a little different, which is why I gave it a four and not a five, but its still beautiful. It was also a tad longer than I would have liked because I'm short, however the spanx would have shown if it wasn't this length so it actually worked out perfectly. If your pale (like I was), slap on some black pumps and red lips and it's an instant classic!

I really liked this dress, my only issue was that at the top of the dress - where there is a small strip of stretchy elastic that helps the dress stay put - had a tendency to fold over. It cheapened the look of the dress. If you can figure out a way to make that not happen, the dress is gold. Cheap, sexy, and classy. The picture is not actually only of me, but it’s the only one I could find where you can really see the dress. Can sort of see the fold over up top too.

This was the first time I used renttherunway.com, and I have to start by saying how impressed I am with how smoothly everything went. I was nervous about it, but I was satisfied with everything from delivery to returning the dress. The dress itsself was great, very pretty, very comfortable. If I had one complaint, it would be that the top of the dress is starting to turn out, it didn't stick to my skin. It didn't really bother me though. Wore it to a bachlorette party, everyone said they loved the dress.

I wore this to my sorority formal. It fit perfectly! Not too short, not too long, just hit right in the middle of my thigh. It fit nice and snug but the lace pattern is very flattering and I thought it looked great! I have to agree with some of the other reviews I've read, the top of the dress curls over and reveals the nude underneath, and no matter how hard I tried to smooth it back down it just wasn't happening, but it wasn't too noticeable because it was such a small little detail. Overall, I loved the dress and the service from RTR was amazing. It was my first rental and I'll definitely rent from here again.

I rented this dress for my boyfriend's fraternity's parents weekend formal, and it was such a hit! I wasn't sure if I would love it when I rented it, but when I put it on, I felt like a million bucks. It runs really true to size and is so sexy, in a very sophisticated and classy way. My only issue with it was the boning because throughout the night it would cause the top edge of the dress to curl over (showing the nude lining), which was annoying. BUT nothing a little fashion tape couldn't fix! Totally recommend this dress!
