i had been coveting this dress for a while and stalking it's renttherunway page. i finally had an occasion to rent it, my first time, and it was a great price. i ordered the 0 and 2 as a backup. i am petite with a large chest. I'm usually the smallest size available in anything BUT if something is narrow i need to size up to accommodate my chest. which also usually requires tailoring, which i wouldn't be doing to a rental obviously, but i ordered because people warned that it ran small. well... it most definitely does. but in a good way. the 2 fit but didn't have the same flare as the 0 and was big in the shoulders/armpits area. it was also SHORT SHORT SHORT. like i said, i am petite; 5'1 on a good day! i have really never in my life experienced a hemline too short for me and this one definitely was on the verge. i chose to wear 4 inch heels instead of my usual 5plus inch platforms. i did the arms-up-dancing test and my boyfriend said it wasn't too short. i definitely have a bubbly but for my size and i was mainly concerned with the back. but if my conservative date told me it was fine, i trusted him. i was getting compliments all night long and it was insanely comfortable. i wish i took more pictures because i felt great in the dress all night long. my recommendation to other women is definitely to order the backup size in a larger size. there is barely a difference between the two and each person is going to like the fit slightly different. i had a great experience overall with rent the runway and can't wait to rent again!
