CUTEST summer dress

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Other

I think the dress runs slightly big because I wore the 0 instead of the 2. The length was pretty perfect despite my small height. Loved the color! I had enough room to wear a bra under the dress. Received tons of compliments throughout the day. No complaints!

Smashing standout BOLD red. absolutely adorable - I wore this to a Rehearsal dinner!!

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

The dress is lovely. Very sturdy, thick material. It does run big. I could have probably worn the 0. However, the dress length is about 4 inches above the knee in the front so the length was perfect for me in the 2. (THE 4 would have been WAY to big.) I had room (extra fabric) around the hip line. That is where it was a tad big. With that said though I received so many compliments on it. It was super cute and standout - lady in red outfit! I wore with cute Shoe Dazzle Red high heels - that ended up match perfectly. One con about this was the bottom hem line in the back was out - just a part of it - so I had to stitch it up so it didn't look odd. Other than that real quick fix - it was perfect!

As we walked to the restaurant, my husband said, "You're going to cause an accident in that dress."

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Date

This is my first Rent the Runway experience, and I couldn't help but rent a second dress given the $25 extra deal. I wore the other dress for the main event and this one for a date with my husband. The cut, material, and color are all AMAZING! Very flattering on a full-figured, hourglass shape. As other reviewers note, however, this is SHORT in front. Renters - you cannot be afraid of showing some leg.

I kept hearing how well this shade of red worked with my skin tone! Thanks, RTR. Loved it!

I rented this dress for my sorority semi-formal. I absolutely loved the color and the fit, but was disappointed by how short it was! I ended up wearing the backup size so I could get a bit of extra length out of it. Other than that, I loved this dress! Comfortable and flattering. Great for an hourglass shape. I wore it with the Lee Angel Etienne necklace to make for a youthful and fun look! Would recommend...but if you aren't crazy about your legs, maybe size up!

I had a wonderful night and felt like the most beautiful woman in the room in the Thakoon dress because I knew without RTR, I would never be able to afford a dress like that.

cute and chic for a night on the town!

Overall fit: True to Size

This dress is super comfortable and chic. You can make it work for any season if you just pair it with out without tights. I wore an 8 because that is all that was available. I think I could have easily fit into the 6 but the 8 was completely doable!

Perfect dress for a Christmas party!

Size worn: 0

Overall fit: Large

Love the color, the pockets and the way the high low bubble hem looks when you walk in it. Ultra flattering, love that I could wear a normal bra, good dress for those with a smaller chest. I'm normally a size 2 but I wore the 0.... It was still big. It could've been quite a bit smaller around the waist. The dress smelled a little stale when I received it...only downside.

Nice dress and not too formal.

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Other

The bust area was WAY to large and with the way it is constructed there was no way to take in the excess. I spent the entire night worrying about the massive gaping. I had to get the four because it was the only size available at the time. The waist was a little large as well, but this was expected since I had to order up a size. These complaints are minor and I got tons of compliments on the dress. Plus it has pockets instant win!

WOW THIS DRESS IS SHORT!

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

Man, I wanted to love this dress. And I DID. BUT...: I am usually a size 6 maybe a 4 in a forgiving cut. After chatting with the fit specialist, I ordered the 4 and the 2. The 2 actually fit perfectly up top (I am small chested so I needed it), but it was so short my husband had a heart attack. I could have actually worn the 4 since it wasn't too loose to be a problem up top and it gave me almost an extra inch in length, but it was still too short for this type of wedding. Even the larger size came just to my fingertips. So even though I brought both dresses with me, I did not end up wearing it at all. I think it would work great on someone a bit shorter with a fuller bust. The color is great and it would be very comfortable to wear. But if you're tall and over 35 like me, you will probably chicken out :)

Beautiful Dress but short!

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I wore this for my daughters preschool auction and loved it. I got tons of compliments. Wore nude shoes and turquoise jewelry. The overall fit is true to size and I liked that I could wear a regular bra. The only thing is it is pretty short in the front. The back helps a little but it is short.

Wore to a wedding

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

I loved this dress! So pretty, and great for dancing. The only issue is that it runs very big. I usually wear a size 6, but I had to wear the 4, which I had as my backup size. Even the 4 was a bit loose on the waist, but definitely manageable. I'd suggest going down at least one size if you're small in the midsection.

Definitely go down a size. This dress is gorgeous - the pics do not do it justice! Felt fabulously chic and the pockets are a great addition. Love it!
