Rented for a wedding
Would NOT recommend for pear shapes! The 10 was too big on top and still just so tight on my hips! This is for those "pear" shapes that actually weigh 100 lbs, not us actual pears! RTR was great and sent me another dress ASAP.

The color & fit are beyond words!
This dress is AMAZING...I would love to purchase it!!! I can not think of a single bad thing to say about it. The fit was incredibly flattering and true to size. The material is stretchy and so comfortable. I was able to dance in it all night and received several compliments. It is good for women with larger chests because you can wear a regular bra. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend renting this dress!

The cut was flattering but the material was too casual for the wedding.
This was a last minute emergency rental. The girls at Rent the Runway were wonderful and I was amazed that the dress arrived in time the next day.
The cut was wonderful and flattering but the material was too casual for the wedding. It was a kind of four-way stretch jersey-like material. It looks more like a work dress than a wedding dress.The skirt also hung a little funny. I didn't end up wearing it.

Perfect for the occasion, comfortable, great value for the price
As a spokesperson for the American Heart Association and the Go Red for Women movement, I need to wear a lot of red. I have stopped buying red dresses and use RTR as my go to! This dress was perfect for a charity luncheon. I normally wear a 4. I wore this dress in a 2. The top fit me perfectly. The bottom pulled a little bit around the hips, so I found myself doing a little tugging every time I stood up. The material is on the thicker side, wrinkle resistant. The cut of the dress is flattering.

So many compliments!
I wore this dress for a work function. It was the perfect amount of form fitting but professional. What a fun dress! Got so many compliments. Ran a bit big, I'd get one size smaller than your usual size..

Great dress! Love the material.
I wore this dress for my law school graduation. I loved it and received many compliments that night! The only reason I gave the dress 4 stars instead of 5 is because there is no slit in the back of the dress so your leg movement is a bit restricted. It is totally fine for walking normally. However, getting into the cars and walking up stairs is a tad bit more difficult. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this dress!

Wore it to SMU's Barrister's Ball
I wore this to my boyfriend's Barrister's Ball/"Law Prom" in the Spring. First off, the color is amazing! A super rich red, so I wore nude pumps and a simple chain gold necklace to balance it out.
The fabric is extremely comfortable. I ordered a size 0 with a size 2 as a back up. I ended up wearing the size 0. Because the fabric had so much give, the size 0 made it a little tighter. I think if I had been going to a business function rather than a party I would've worn a size 2 which was a little bit looser.

Dress runs long
I rented this for yet another wedding, but the dress ran very large! It was so long that it went down to my knees practically. It was heavy and not at all what I imagined. I think it would fit better on someone who was taller.

Red hot!
I rented this dress for formal night on our cruise. The reviews noted the dress ran big so I ordered my normal size (8) and a size 6 as the alternate. The 6 fit well, it was a little loose in the waist/hips, but still made my waist look tiny, I think the 4 would have been too tight up top. The length was perfect and the peplum hid the problem spots and flattered all the right places. The dress was very comfortable and easy to move around in, I have two small children so I needed something that allowed me bend down to their level and move with them without exposing myself to the general population.
The best part- I got compliments on the dress all night long!

Dress was beautiful.
I suggest pulling the front of the dressdown so that the back lies flat. Goes great with gold accesories.

Really cute peplum dress!
This dress is a cute peplum dress, about knee length, pretty form fitting. I wore it to an office christmas party and got lots of compliments on it. It was really pretty and flattering, but also classy. I wore the size I ordered (4). It was a little bit tight across the hip area but not enough to be a problem. I tried the size 6 which was my back-up size but that was too big. Overall, it was a great holiday dress and I would recommend it!

Peplum is very long
This was my back-up dress. It's very comfortable and runs a little big. I had extra room in the waist and bust area. It is very stretchy, so I didn't have to worry about it being too tight over my hips and butt. I don't think there's a need to size up in this dress. I didn't like the style of the dress at all when I tried it on because the peplum was very long, and my husband said it looked like I had a skirt over a skirt. It exaggerated my large hips instead of camouflaging them. I didn't wear it to my event, but I wore it the following night out to a wine bar. The color is very pretty, and I think it looked elegant with heels and jewelry.

Flattering!!
I totally love this dress.. I was surprised at how flattering the peplum was on my hourglass-ish shape. I gave birth to my son about 7 month ago.. I haven't seen many of the people at this wedding in over a year. I had several people ask if I had a baby because it didn't look like it. I can't wait to rent it again!!
My biggest gripe is that the bottom hem is super tight.. Obviously I dealt with it though.

RTR customer service is great! They saved me :)
I originally rented a different dress, but after receiving it I did not like it and it did not fit well. I called RTR Customer service to request another dress and this was the one I decided on. The stylist was great to work with and patient with me as I tried to choose another dress. . She overnighted me 2 sizes of this dress- a 2 and 4. Normally a size 4 will fit around my hips and a 2 will fit on my chest. I ended up wearing the 2 and I probably could have worn a 0. The dress runs a tad big. I wore the dress for an awards dinner for my fiancé's work in Puerto Rico! I paired it with a black belt at the waist, a black clutch and black pointed pumps. I thought it looked very classy :) overall great dress and even better customer service!

It was fun, flirty, yet professional. Perfect for what I had to do!
I hosted a fundraiser-- and the dress was perfect. I looked great, it felt great and I got lots of complements. My only issue was that it had a funny smell. I used my dry cleaner refresher and it worked fine.

This dress was perfect for my work Christmas party! Lots of compliments and was a fun dress to wear!
Great fit, gorgeous color, and flattering. The only thing is there is no slit in the back so shorter strides were required.

It was the perfect fit, and so comfortable!
I am curvy, and this dress was so flattering to my body type. The color is absolutely stunning, and the material and fit of the dress were comfortable during the entire night. I wore this for a New Year's Eve party. I would definitely recommend this dress to anyone!

Bold, beautifully colored dress for an event where you want to stand out
I received many compliments on this dress! It's form-fitting all over, but there's also a peplum area around the waist/hips that keeps it from being perfectly tight fitting there. I highly recommend pairing this dress with a statement necklace and nude pumps. Even though it's form-fitting, it's actually perfect for an occasion where you need to look classy or professional because of the high neck and length down to your knees (I wore it to my boyfriend's office holiday party). The only reason I rated it slightly lower is because there's no slit in the back of the dress, so expect that to limit you a little bit in walking fast or dancing.

Very comfortable and beautiful dress!
I think the fit is probably on the bigger side, but this dress fit the bill for me. I had recently gained some weight and this dress was a great option. It was flattering and comfortable. Easy to move in, got lots of compliments. Would definitely rent again

Gorgeous and classy
The fit was perfect on me. I wore a size 2. The color is vibrant, and it was very classy. The peplum added a nice touch, and I loved that it was longer peplum than most styles, so it was more forgiving.

Not for petite girls
I would not recommend this for a short girl, the peplum hits very low, creating a frumpy look. For everyone else, I recommend going a size down. However, the material is very comfortable and the dress itself is super cute!

Super Comfortable and Wears Well for an All Day Event
I wore this to my graduation from Law School and was in the dress from mid-morning until after dinner. It was comfortable for sitting through the ceremony, not hot under my graduation regalia, and even held up when we got stuck in a pop-up rain storm. A great RTR win!

Bright pop of color for a casual spring wedding
Lovely dress! I got many compliments on it. Fit was true to size, maybe even slightly loose in the upper half. Bottom skirt (under the peplum) was very fitted and I found it awkward at times to walk up and downstairs -- but overall a great rental.

Fantastic color, cut and design. Very comfy fabric and a joy to wear.
I am loving this dress by Erin Fetherston. It is so comfy and I absolutely adore the peplum design. It makes me feel very ladylike. I will say the only CON to this dress it the lack of a back slit so walking is fairly difficult. I also think I could have gone with a 2 since peplum dresses can be a bit unflattering if they aren't tailored perfectly. Overall LOVE this one!

Comfortable and Stylish!
The fit on this dress is great. The material is very giving and the placement of the peplum material helps to mask any "pouch" you may have. The color is closer to a pure red than it appears in the photo of the model (in my mind it appears to be a rust in that photo).

Loose in Weird Places, Made me Look Bigger Around Tummy and Hips and Tight in the Chest
I usually look wonderful in this silhouette however the waist was loose and the petals of the peplum were "puffy" making me look wider and thicker through the tummy and hips- where every woman wants to look bigger....um, NOT. Squished my boobs flat. Returned immediately.

Beautiful and Comfortable
The dress was beautiful and very very comfortable, the peplum makes you feel good about eating/drinking too. The peplum was a little long, and it probably wasn't my favorite dress I've rented but it was fantastic regardless.

Loved wearing this fun and vibrant dress to my company holiday party!
Conservative enough for a work party but the red made it fun for an evening out. Runs a bit large, I would probably have worn the 6 but it was out of stock when I ordered so an 8 worked fine. Material is a nice weight and the red is a true vibrant holiday red. Super comfy and the waist detail hides any tummy imperfections and doesn't require Spanx!

So many compliments! The perfect mix of classy and sassy!
The dress is Beautiful! I recieved many compliments! I ordered the 2 and 4 and ended up wearing the 2. While, the fit was nice, the bodice was still rather large. I probably could have been comfortable in a 0 but was happy with the overall fit. The fabric is Very nice. I wish it could stay in my closet!

This is such a fantastic company to work with!!
Stunning dress!! Stretchy and conforms to your body throughout the night! I am a true hourglass shape, about 5'6", large bust and this fit me perfectly. It was true to size but get a size up as well to see to see which is more comfortable for you. I can't wait to rent this dress again!
