The perfect red dress!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress is simply stunning. It's very flattering, curve-hugging and the asymmetrical halter makes it edgy. The dress does run small, I typically wear a size 4 or small in dresses. I went with the medium, it was very tight through the hips but the large was too large on top. It was tight, but not so restrictive that I couldn't dance.

Knockout dress!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

I really did love this dress. It's fun and whimsical and I received many compliments on it. Be sure to order your size and the next size up, if available, because it runs small. I'm usually a solid M, which was all that was available at the time I rented it, and it fit, but barely. It was very tight and somewhat restictive.

Someone thought I was part of a wedding party haha

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Date

I enjoyed wearing this dress and it was especially nice because I was able to eat alot on the date and not have to worry about sucking it in later lol =) the zipper was a little finicky, however, and kept unzipping itself--not sure why, since the dress wasn't too tight (it was actually a little roomy).

I felt amazing in this dress and got compliments all night!

Size worn: L

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

The lining of the dress pulls eveything in so that your curves are super defined and the ruching on the front hides any flaws. I just had my 3rd baby 4 months ago and was a little nervous to wear a fitted dress but this dress was perfect. It was really comfortable and I felt like I could dance and move around freely. The color is a really nice shade of red, I got compliments all night!

Great selection of styles and designers made my dress decision an easy one.

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

This dress was absolutely the sexiest dress I've worn in a long time. It was perfect for an early afternoon wedding, sexy yet formal and classic. The red is an deep orange red, the fabric is thick and the rouging is perfect. I totally recomment this dress to anyone with an hourglass figure, the curves really show. I wore a "M" although the top was a little on the loose kind of fit, I could have worn a "S". The dress was fitted, and the lenght perfect (just above the knew, very classic)... Loved it, can't say enough of this dress.

This is a beautiful, sexy dress. It made me feel like a million bucks.

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I loved this dress! It's one of my favorite rentals ever. I usually wear a size 4 and the medium fit perfectly. I tried on the large just to see how it fit and the bottom half of the dress actually fit fine, but the top was huge. This is not surprising, given my pear shape. The dress is stretchy with thick, forgiving fabric. It's comfortable enough to sit down and have a nice dinner in. I did have to shorten my stride when walking though as the dress is tight all around, but it was no big deal. I got so many compliments on this dress. It was a huge hit. I wish I could keep it!

The dress definitely runs small. I normally fit into a small but couldn't squeeze into it without compromising my ability to breathe! Thank The Lord for the safety net RTR gave me! The medium fit stunningly and emphasized my body in all the right places. I wore this dress to my company Christmas party and received so many compliments! I highly recommend this dress!

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

the dress is a bit of an effort to get into, but once you are in, your body looks great! The somewhat asymmetrical lines are actually quite flattering - at least for an hourglass figure. The dress does, however, minimize the chest area.

I tried - great color but wow - this dress is hard to wear- I ordered two sizes in it and it would not work - there is a lot of fabric all in the mid section - I guess preen is not a great designer for me and my body. :(

Pretty dress

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I ordered this dress in S as a backup to the Preen Plaza dress. This is a beautiful dress. It has a lot of ruching on it (a bit more than the picture shows). I ended up wearing the Plaza dress for the occasion but would have happily worn this one as well.

Flattering dress, strange neckline

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

This was sent to me as a back up dress when I thought my original package may not arrive in time for an event. Overall I thought the dress was flattering. Made my waist look tiny, there is definitely a lot more ruching that it looks like there is on the model. However I found the strap really strange and not all that flattering. Definitely a pretty and incredibly well made dress, just not my favorite.

Sexy

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I never wear red, so this was a bit over-the-top for me, but the bf loved it. I appreciated that it was super-sexy but still knee length. The stretch is super-forgiving and easy to move in. Definitely no need to wear spanx, as the dress basically functions the same. It's hard to zip up, but I managed on my own. If I were to buy it's I'd spend money to get the top taken in a little, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

Good backup dress.

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

Unlike the Preen Plaza dress, this dress fits true to size. I loved the more conservative length, just above my knees. However, I couldn't get the fabric of this dress to lay flat and felt like the folds just weren't flattering on me. I ended up wearing my first choice dress, Preen Plaza. Great, thick fabric hides pudges.

Non stop compliments on the dress

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

I had the same experience as most of the other reviewers--size up and have someone help you get into the dress. After that, get ready to stand out from the crowd. The dress is a bright red and the pleating of the fabric is very flattering. It also makes you very curvy looking! I had people ask me about my dress all night long. I wore this to the rehearsal dinner for my wedding and would love to rent it again.

The dress was pretty but I couldnt wear it - the bottom fit like a glove but the top was GIGANTIC and hung down below my chest. The neckline seemed to be for someone inches taller than I am.

Overall fit: True to Size

I ordered the S and this dress is tight/form-fitting yet stretchy and comfortable. It covers you up yet shows your curves. I got a lot of compliments on this dress and I never had to adjust or worry about this dress. The very top of the dress is a bit looser than the rest of the dress, but it doesn't move or slide down.

I absolutely adored this dress. It is definitely tight, though I had ordered the large as my backup and the medium fit much better / had that Spanx-y effect. The cut of the dress is extremely flattering and unique, and the color is awesome. I wore this out on New Year's Eve and had the best time / got so many compliments. I was SO sad to send it back. Highly recommend.

Overall fit: True to Size

Loved this dress. It's very tight, but it sucks you in. It was incredibly flattering. Sexy, but not vulgar. I got a lot of compliments. It bunches a little at the waist (see photo) but this wasn't a problem for me. I had to tug it down a few times during the night, which perhaps wouldn't have been an issue if it had been larger sized, but it looks fine because of the ruched fit.
