Wanted something different for a wedding and this was the perfect dress!
The dress fit beautifully and I received so many compliments. The material is a little thicker than I was used to but it didn't get too hot.

Comfortable dress for a Spring wedding...
This dress was very comfortable, true to size and a nice length. I personally didn't love the cut of the top of the dress, which is the only reason for my 3 star rating.

Definitely thick, but works well for a summer evening.

Cool design, comfortable fit.
The dress was a little tight in the middle though stretchy enough not to cause a problem. I wish I had spanx or something of the sort. Got lots of compliments on the design though!
The dress smelled a little funny. I couldn't tell if it was the material or if it could have used a little more time at the cleaner.

Wore this to a Valentine/Winter wedding and it worked great!!
The only flaw I could find was it did bunch up a little in the back at the waist but it wasn't terrible.

Rent this dress!!
This dress is super flattering and I got lots of compliments on it. The material is pretty thick, but I wore it to an end-of-June wedding and was totally comfortable. Like many others have said, it's more of a sparkly gray than a black. The material is also fairly stretchy; I'd say size down for your back-up size.

Overall the dress had a great pattern that made it stand out but ran big
The dress has a great pattern that catches your eye and is unique; I had a lot of people that commented how much they loved it. I was struck by the fabric though, I didn't expect it to be a stretchy fabric and the XS ran very big on me. I am petite but I didn't expect the dress to almost hit my knees. I also thought it looked black on the website but it's actually a dark gray that has a shine or glitter effect to it. It was very comfortable though!

I love this dress! It looked and felt great on. I got so many compliments on the dress. You can wear it day or night. I usually wear a 6-8 and the Medium fit me great. It was fitted on top, and had that great A-Line style, which is perfect for my body type.

Another RTR win!
Super comfy dress. Material is a little thick but of great quality and I did not feel overheated even with lots of dancing. Photographs really well. Be prepared to wear a strapless bra because the dress comes in a bit to narrow in the front of the shoulders to hide straps. Loved this dress and got lots of compliments. Again as with all of my rentals I was sad to return it.

Super comfy dress for an early stage preggo
Considering I was 12 weeks pregnant when I wore this it was super stretchy and comfy for that growing/bloated belly. My only issue was that the top/straps had a weird gap, it was resolved without wearing a bra though. Overall it was a fun dress and I'm glad I rented it.

I rented this dress for a cocktail party for a beach wedding in Mexico. True to size and not heavy!
Although the fabric feels thick and kind of heavy, it was not hot in the 90 degree Mexico heat. It was a little loose around the waist than what I was hoping, but still form fitting. It is more gray and red rather than black and red-very pretty. It was a 9.5 out of 10 for what I expected to get. It arrived a day before my vacation which I was a little nervous about because I wasn't sure how it would look on me but it turned out perfect! I wish I could have kept this dress. I got some complements on it and it fit in with the style of the wedding perfectly. If it looks good on a majority of the people posting pictures on here then it will definitely look good on you too!

Stunning, comfortable dress. Wish I owned it!
I ordered a S and XS based on reviews. I was expecting to wear the S but XS fit better. Would have liked an XXS if it existed but the XS fit just fine. This dress is even more stunning in person. The black has a shine to it and the contrast of the red really looks great. I'd love to own this dress! Very comfortable, it's a thicker dress but not too hot for and outside summer wedding. Hugs all the right places. Highly recommend.

XS is too small for a size 2.
Rent the Runway suggested I order an XS despite the fact that I'm usually a size 2. They were out of a S in this dress so I went with XS since RTR suggested it. Was too small! Next time I'll trust my gut and not get an XS.

Super fun feminine dress!
As others have described the colors do look a lot different in person then they do on the model. The sparkle of the grey is super fun and adds and extra element to the dress. I ordered both the S and XS and honestly didn't see much of a difference between the two sizes. I ended up going with the XS because the skirt was a little more full on that one. Overall a perfect dress for a wedding!

The fabric worked well for a June wedding, but it could have easily could have worked in the winter in tights. It was unique, but not too loud for a wedding. Super comfortable.

Cute little number.
This dress fit amazingly well. The shape and fabric were very flattering and it was really fun to wear. I ordered the XS and S and while both fit, the S had a little more room so I ended up wearing that one. Being 5'2" the length was perfect; just above the knees, but I would imagine it would be much shorter on someone taller. The fabric was a tad on the heavier side so there wasn't much breath-ability but it was not an issue for me. I loved this dress and was sad to send it back. I would rent again!

The overall fit and length were perfect. I rocked some red heels to shake things up. The dress has a little sparkle/shine to it that I hadn't noticed online, but loved it! I will definitely rent this dress again.

Beautiful AND Comfortable
I ordered this dress for a rehearsal dinner and it was perfect for the occasion. The XS and Small both fit, but the small gave me a little breathing room so I could eat a big dinner. It's fairly stretchy so the small still looked great on, and it was so comfortable. The pattern is more red and grey in person. I wish I never had to send this dress back!

Great fit but it was slightly big because I think of how many times the dress had been worn.
I wore a regular bra but because it was slightly bi on me and j move around a lot, the bra peeked out from time to time. A strapless may have been best.

This dress was really different and looked great. The one tip I would give is that the material is very thick, so it could be hot in the summer.

Great for a spring/summer wedding!
This dress was amazing! Wore to a end of May wedding and received multiple compliments. The black is more of a dark glittery grey but still looked great with the vibrant red. So comfortable and was able to wear a regular bra by crossing the straps in the back!

I sent it back because it did not look good on me.
This dress is not made for petite girls. I am a size 0- & 5'3'' tall and this dress like swallowed me and was very unflattering. I had to send it back. It is definitely a heavier material and a pretty dress just not what I was looking for.

The fabric texture is perfection
I wish I could own this. It's such a perfect dress. It's thick fabric, not cheap or flimsy in the least. I wore it to a rehearsal dinner for a destination wedding and got so many compliments. The fit is also great. Fit and flare works well on my hourglass figure. I also got the necklace they suggested and added a gold belt shoes and bag.

The fit was great! Had a little stretch to it which made it comfortable but still form fitting at the top. The black appears to be more of a dark glittery gray in person but I liked that about it. Great dress, wish I could have kept it!!

Beautiful dress!
I wore this to a friends engagement party and I felt great! Unfortunately I didn't take a full length picture! But this dress is beautiful. I am normally a medium in everything and that is the size I wore. I am a double D in my chest and I didn't have to wear a bra (which was great) it held the girls up nice since the material was on the thicker side. When I originally tried it on with the bra you could see the side of my bra because the top doesn't have THAT much give - but it was great without the bra. I would definitely rent this again. My fiance loved it as well.

The fit was great. The material is very thick, which makes it a little warm if you wear it on a humid day.
