Worn to my schools prom.
The dress was a little tight in the waist because of the belt and the underskirt was also a little snug, not ideal for dancing. I wore the dress with heels but I still kept getting caught up in the skirt. I ordered a long because I am a pretty tall person but it was too long. Overall, I got a lot of compliments on the dress and it looked great!

Great dress for Spring and formal parties. I received so many compliments! Very glad I picked this!
I am usually a 10, but wanted a little extra room for the bust, and just to be comfortable. I would say this is probably true to size. As another person wrote earlier, there is something strange going on in the bust with the fabric making lines in the inner layer. I just tried to straighten it as much as possible. I really felt comfortable all night! I received many compliments, and felt like the early Hollywood starlet look I was going for!

This dress is gorgeous. Highly recommend. Would buy this dress.
I got a ton of compliments. The mother of the groom later commented that I was "the second prettiest" woman at the wedding (after the bride, obviously). This dress made me feel like a goddess. I may very well rent it again.
The 6 was larger than I expected it to be. It also took me two tries to figure out how to get into the 4 comfortably, but after I did I was 100% comfortable all evening. Great dress.

The color is really rich and the fabric is very flowy. I got a ton of compliments!
The fit was as described, it was a little loose on the top half for me.

This dress was beautiful, but I was unable to wear it.
I based my size choices on reviews, and neither the 10 or the 12 would zip up past my bust area. I am not a large woman. I am 5'4" and weigh 150 pounds. I usually wear a 10 or 12. Most of the reviews mentioned that it ran a bit large, so I thought I would be OK. I was disappointed that I couldn't wear this beautiful dress. I mailed both back the morning after receiving them, so hopefully I will see a credit in the next few days.

I had a 14L but it is not long enough to call long
I didn't end up wearing it ran small and short but a really pretty dress if you are around 5'9 any talked the long is probably not long enough

RTR was very easy to rent and return and everything was beautiful!!!
This was my first time renting from Rent the Runway and I was not disappointed! The dress was comfortable, had nice drape, and fit well at the hips. I am 5'7" and wore 3" heels and the length was perfect. However, I wear a 32B and my shoulders are narrow so it was large at the top. Overall a really nice dress!

Great dress, not for the occasion.
I rented this dress as my first choice for family photos on the beach. I'm 5'7 and the long length had the perfect, flowy effect I imagined. I did not wear shoes but I think with heels it would have been fine if worn to a formal occasion. I consider myself medium-chested (38C but breastfeeding now so a little bigger) and I was nervous about it being too large on top based on other reviews which made me size down as I'm normally between an 8 or a 10 dress. I also have wide hips and was nervous that the detailing and draping would hit me at a weird spot and draw attention to that area but it was actually very flattering. The dress was in excellent quality and I wouldn't have hesitated to wear it, it just ended up not being the right pick for my pictures and I needed something in a different color.

It fit perfectly, I went with the regular length as we walked barefoot and the long was a little too long, but it was comfortable!

Versatile, cool, and comfy for hot summer wedding
I had my bridesmaids order these; 6 very different skin tones, and 6 very different body types and everyone looked drop dead gorgeous! I just loved these dresses. I do know the gals had some trouble with the zippers (as others have mentioned) and the gold on the shoulders is definitely lighter than the photo shows, but who cares! I mean; just look at these hotties! :) (Sorry for an awkward crop, we didn't have the best photogs.... Not a single actual full body shot!)

Very flattering and comfy! I received many compliments!
I normally wear 14 in dresses by designer brands and the was just right, maybe even a little roomy. The material in back at the waist band was a little hard to zip past despite being a little loose, so make sure someone can help you zip up. I'm about 5'10"-5'11" and the long just brushed the floor with flats. I could've worn kitten heels, but nothing higher. Overall this was a great rental!

Lovely
This dress is so comfortable and very flattering for hourglass figures. The skirt is so flowy, so much fun to dance in. People told me I looked like a Grecian goddess or Arwen from Lord of the Rings :) I have a larger bust and this provided tasteful coverage without being matronly. The long was perfect with my 2.5/3 inch heels. All my measurements are correct so go ahead and compare!

I wanted to try this before a wedding as I am currently in a wheelchair after a battle with cancer.
The dress is much more beautiful in person, pictures do not give it justice. For me the problem was the shoulders, I am a pear shape and from being in a sitting position it just didn't sit right on me. If I weren't in a wheelchair I think it would have looked great!

I wanted to love this dress....
This was my first choice for the AF ball but I felt the top laid weird looking like I had bra lines when I didn't. It was comfy but made me look shapeless. I loved the mint color. Wish it would've worked on my body type.

Beautiful dress, fabric, and flow for the fraternity Spring Formal last year.
I got a size 8 and size 6 (as the backup) and both were WAY too big. I measured myself before ordering the dress and I was *supposed* to be between the 6 and 8. I ended up having to safety pin the inside of the dress so it actually fit properly. I have a small waist, but I still ended up "taking in" about 2 inches on either side.

I received so many compliments!
I couldn't believe the amount of compliments I received on this dress. There were even girls I didn't know commenting on it! I was able to wear my normal bra which was nice. The zipper is tricky, but I figured out if you can get it zipped past the point where it seems to get stuck, then put on the dress, it will zip up the rest of the way just fine. I'm a 36DD so if you are a bigger size up top like me I would suggest getting your normal size and the size up from that. I had gotten my normal size (8) and ordered the size lower. This was a big mistake for me as there is no way I could've went a size down. This dress was my favorite rental thus far!

I wore this to my boyfriends military ball and got so many compliments. I love this dress
The zipper was extremely difficult but I figured it out eventually. It fit very well and hugged in all the right places. I'm pretty busty and I was worried about spilling out of the size 2 but it was perfect. I wore 4 inch heels and I'm 5'9 and the dress still scraped the floor so the long is definitely long. Overall I think this was a perfect dress and I would definitely rent again. #militaryball #greatdress #thankyouRTR

looked beautiful in person
though the size 8p zipper was impossible to go up, the size 6p did. Dispite being a little snug it looked beautiful. I wore a regular bra with no show. Danced the night away and felt beautiful.

Fast delivery!
I got so many compliments on it and I felt like a princess!
I'm 5'2 and my weight fluctuates between 120 and 127. And sometimes the size 2 fits and sometimes the size 4 fits. I chose to wear the size 4 and it was only a little loose on my chest or shoulder area. But I had room in the belly area. And it was a little long but still looked beautiful!

Great, easy-to-wear long dress for a black tie wedding reception. So comfortable!
It fit perfectly to size without being tight anywhere or constraining. The flowy skirt made it really easy and fun to dance in.

Pretty in pastel
I rented this dress for a small wedding where all of the girls in the wedding had to wear pastel. This dress turned out great and fit beautifully for the theme. The pleats on the hips were a little odd and weren't very flattering, but overall a great dress.

Top too big. Wish they would have had a smaller size available.
This was my first choice rental on the website. Was not originally going to rent this one bc they didn't have my size. I know the reviews said it ran big and to order a size down, but I figure since I have a fuller chest due to nursing, my normal size would still be ok. Unfortunate, the waist and hips were fine but the top was way too big. I would like to give this dress another try but in a smaller size.

Felt like a goddess!
I wore this dress to a black-tie optional wedding... and I have to say it was one of my favorite rentals yet! The chiffon was gorgeous and flowed wonderfully for an August wedding. I wore a regular bra and didn't have to worry about the straps showing, it also doesn't come far enough down to worry about too much cleavage. Funny enough, a friend of mine almost rented the same dress! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Beautiful and lightweight
This dress was gorgeous. I'm thick in the middle and ribcage so there was one spot that was a bit tight but otherwise very comfy and light for a summer wedding. It was a little shorter than I expected so I had to wear a low heel. It was also refreshing that I was able to wear a regular bra. Great dress!

Dress runs big. I am normally a 6p and had to wear the 4p. Even then it was a little big on the bust area.

Beautiful dress
True to size...I wore the regular length with a shorter heel and it was perfect. Other reviews talk about the zipper being tricky and that is true. It's an elegant dress for formal occasions and it's nice and flowy.
