I wore this dress to my senior year homecoming. I was very skeptical at first because I am tiny (barely 5 feet tall), so bodycon dresses usually don't work out for me. Boy, was I wrong. I got SO many compliments that night, and I was seriously considering just taking the fees and keeping the dress forever. It's beautiful, and I miss this dress more than anything else in the world. If you're on the fence about this dress - get it. You won't regret it.

This dress was even prettier in person! The red embroidery is actually a metallic red. It really makes the dress shine and stand out. I ordered an XS, with small as my backup. They both fit great, and I could have worn either, but the small seemed to be a little newer-looking, so I went with it. They both fit, though, and both looked beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous, unique, comfortable, and sexy. Would rent again for the right occasion.

To say all eyes will be on you is an understatement. This dress hugs every curve and is best worn backwards. The material is thick without feeling restricting. It was very comfortable. Best comment of the night "Girl you and that dress are flawless!"

This dress is VERY form-fitting! But the material is plenty thick and I loved the shimmery look of the red detail. It rode up a little when I walked but it wasn't too bad. I wore it backwards as some other RTRers suggested. It actually looks better with the scoop neck, in my opinion.  I got quite a few compliments. I really liked this rental. 

This dress was gorgeous! It was snug but that helped hold everything together! It was a thick material but I wore it in 90 degree heat and it wasn't an issue but it would be good for winter wear. I wore it backwards because then the neckline allows for some cleavage!

I decided to rent this one last minute for a party- and I'm so glad I did! Like others who've worn this RVN before I wore it backwards. It fit like a glove and I felt so sexy in it. The material is really thick and sucks everything in! Wished I owned this one!!!

This was my first rent the runway experience, and I was very nervous that the dress wouldn't fit or it wouldn't cover up my rear. I carry most of my weight in my hips and it is always hard for me to find a dress that I feel good in. This dress blew those feelings out of the water! I felt so good about myself and received many compliments. Will definitely recommend RTR to all my friends!

Can't say enough for how fabulous this dress made me feel! While it does hug every curve, it also holds each of those curves in their place. This allowed me to dance and have a great time without having to worry about adjusting the dress much at all, even over my large behind. It's has a great sparkle to it, making it even more spectacular for a simple body-con dress! Totally works with the America theme, too!

The dress ran little small but it looked really good on.

I loved this dress!! I ordered the small and the medium, either would have worked but the medium was a little bit comfier and the fit looked exactly the same. I didn't have any issues with the dress riding up. The material is a little thicker than you expect but I wore it on a hot day and was just fine. It was great because I felt like I stood out, but in a classy way, it was just so fun to wear. 

Loved this dress. Thick material and stretchy.  It really holds your body in nice and is super comfortable.  I went with the small because the medium was just as tight just more material.  The red detailing is actually kind of shimmery which is really pretty! Got so many compliments on this dress! Would definitely rent it again :)

It's a stretchy material so I ended up wearing the smaller of my two sizes because many people wearing it had stretched it out. I highly recommend wearing it backwards so it's not so close to your neck, but that's just a personal preference. It didn't ride up and was a heavy enough material to smooth everything out and was extremely flattering. Endless compliments all night from girls and guys alike.

Tight/stretchy material. Feels tight when putting first on, but becomes form fitting once completely on. Very comfortable. Long enough that it wasn't riding up all night. Very flattering. Definitely recommend to anyone!

I forgot my spanks that included the legs and wore a "high brief" version.  You could see the leg lines.  Definitely wear spanks with legs

the only bad thing was it riding up,  but the dress was amazing 

I am absolutely in love with this dress. I was scared it wouldn't look right on me but the dress definitely delivered! This dress is very tight to get on but once your in it, its fine. It fits to your body so it becomes easy to move in. I wasn't aware of how thick the material is but it turned out fine, I didn't get too hot.  The dress is true to size, it fit like a glove. I definitely recommend this dress and the company is great!

Fitted but comfortable. You need to be confident in your curves or wear spanx with this, but it's a great dress.  Super stretchy but thick material. Not just a fabric print - design was raised and sparkly. Felt terrific in it.

Very tight but was long enough that I didn't feel trashy

This dress is very comfortable and has a high quality fabric.  I got a ton of compliments about how much people loved it at the wedding I went to.  The one downside I found was that the pattern accentuates your stomach area.  It wasn't bad in person, but I noticed it in the pictures.  It is a good dress if you're tall as I'm wearing the small (backwards) and it was long enough for me.  This was the fourth dress I had tried to rent and I'm so glad I didn't give up.  I would rent this again in the future and you should totally go for it if you are on the fence!

I have received the item on time and I was excited to check it out! My first rental wasn't successful so I was hesitant for this one. I'm very petite and skinny and some dresses doesn't fit me well or need some alteration but this dress fits like a glove! I wear it backwards to show more sexiness and folded it as it was pretty long for me. I wore it with Bebe open toes gold high heels and accessorize it with gold bracelet and watch as well minimally. The design of the dress emphasize your curves. I got a lot of compliments that night and I love the color on me! I wore it for work on backstage and a huge fashion show event. Will rent again! I'm very satisfied with RTR and RVN. My boyfriend loves it and asked for the brand many times.. 

This dress was sent to me as a replacement for one that was too small. RTR was fantastic and overnighted this dress to me at my hotel in Michigan. The dress itself was beautiful. It is made of a very thick material and it is tight, but it fit me really well and I got tons of compliments all night. The color is very striking. The dress is long compared to some dresses of this style, but it does have a tendency to ride up a bit while dancing. I did not feel uncomfortable at any point either while dancing or while sitting. I will definitely rent this dress again and will almost certainly  try another one from this designer.

Fabric very thick and stretchy so it hugs all your curves. I wore a medium and usually wear size 6-8. Comfortable dress but would probably not wear it in the summer time again 

Didn't have a plan when I rented just thought it would be cute for 4th of July and ended up just wearing to dinner. Very easy to wear once it is on but a bit hard to get on! Medium could have worked but just too hard to get over my head and down without a zipper - make sure you do makeup and hair after!! Thick material that hides some flaws. 

This was my first time with RTR and I loved it! I did a lot of investigating before I decided to rent it and it fit just like everyone else said - tight but in all the right places. I'm one who is addicted to my shapewear and I didn't have to wear it with this at all because it was snug but in a good way. I would say if you have some trouble areas in the mid section this dress will show everything. I got the XS and S, both fit fine but I went with the S because the material in the sleeves was softer (no clue why) and more comfortable. The color and detail were beautiful and definitely stood out in a crowd. I didn't get to dance much at this wedding but it worked well for chasing a toddler around the dance floor and the length was perfect for having to bend over a lot and not worry about showing the goods! 
Pros - it fit snug, didn't need to wear shapewear, I got lots of compliments and I felt great in it! Cons - I was super nervous one of my bracelets was going to snag the dress so I avoided the ones that had any prongs on it. 

Very close fitting yet comfortable at the same time. The red on the dress has some glitter which adds to the look. I'm a 34 DDD and the girls were in. 

I wore it backwards like many others. Great for curvy figures!!!!!

When I first tried on this dress, I have to say I hated how it looked on me. I decided to try it on backwards and absolutely loved it! I definitely liked the scoop neck look on me rather than a higher neckline and love that with this dress you have the option of wearing it 2 completely different ways. The dress does ride up when you walk/dance and the fabric is thicker than I anticipated, but that worked out well because I'm small chested and didn't have to wear a bra with it!  Overall I loved the way the dress looked on me. I received tons of compliments all night. 

If you are planning to dance the night away, this dress is perfect! Although the dress is very fitted, it's comfortable and easy to move in.

Definitely tight so I went with the medium.

This was my first time using Rent the Runway.  At first, I was a bit skeptical that the dress would not fit right or that I would not like it one me, but when I put on the dress all of my previous stipulations about it vanished. Not only did I feel great in the dress, but I got so many compliments on it! The material is very stretchy. The only thing I may worry about is the thickness of the material. Its not too noticeable how thick the material is, but if you are used to thinner styles it may come as a shock to you how thick the material is. Overall, great dress for the occasion

Very pretty dress - very fun how you can choose to wear it one way or turn it around and have the scoop neck option. This was my first rental with RTR and it was awesome. Wore it with white pumps to with a peep toe - think a closed pointed toe would look cuter but I didn't have time to get those. I have a flat stomach but it definitely hugs and if you eat too much it will show :) I maybe would have wore some spanks. Great for dancing, rides up a bit when walking but not too much. Ordered a medium and a large, you def want to size down to keep it all sucked it.

This was a great dress to rent for a wedding. It's much thicker than I thought, but it helps to keep every part of you in its place. It is VERY curve-hugging. I liked how it hugged the lower part of my body, but didn't like how much it emphasized my top curves. If you're looking to emphasize ALL of your curves, this is the dress for you!! It's a beautiful print and I loved the shininess woven into the red threads.

Loved this dress - wore it in Vegas and stood out in a sea of black. It ran small for me since I have larger hips, so I'm happy that I got the larger backup size, even though it's super stretchy. It was really comfortable, and I didn't need to keep pulling it down throughout the night. Fabric is thick - I didn't feel like it was too warm, and I appreciated the fact that everything was smoothed out. If you want to try something different like I did, pick this dress!!! 

Runs right but it's stretchy. I could fit in both but breathe easier in the medium. I was uncomfortable with my post baby belly in the dress.

This dress is so comfortable and classy, but still great for a night out! I wore it to my boyfriend's Fraternity Formal, and it was perfect for the occasion. Keep in mind that it is really thick material and it is made small, so it is a bit hard to get on. I initially thought the XS was too small for me because I had a hard time fitting my shoulders and hips into the dress, but the S was way too long- down to my knees. Overall this dress is one of my favorites from RTR and I absolutely love the design--absolutely beautiful!  

I wore this to a formal on a yacht for my college, and it worked really well. I would definitely recommend wearing it backgrounds, because the shoulders can fit funny. It was a great length and I didn't feel like I had to pull it down all night. Warning: it is very snug and I would get spanx.

This dress was great for the Kentucky Derby. It was comfortable and hit me right about mid-thigh, so not too short. Major plus was I could wear a regular bra with it. Definitely make sure to do your hair and makeup after putting the dress on, as other mentioned, since it does not have a zipper and is somewhat difficult to get on and off. I received tons of compliments and was extremely pleased with my first RTR dress! 

This dress is so awesome, I did what other reviewers said and I wore it backwards. Material is thick so it really sucks you in and panty lines are not problem. Also you can wear a bra with it which is a plus for me. Also for girls with a curvy booty, this dress is prime. I got lots of compliments. Dress is way prettier in person than online because the detailing has a tiny bit of shiny thread too. Loved this dress 

Loved the dress but it was reeeeally tight so I had to wear the large. I wore it backwards like many others did! If you're a little self conscious about your stomach I would invest in some spanx! I had a lot of fun in this dress though, it was great to dance in!
