I wasn't able to wear it because the bottom rides up a lot but the quality is great!
The dress runs true to size fit wise in my opinion. The material is thick and flattering, but the dress is shorter than expected. Normally, I love a short dress because I like to show off my legs but the bottom of the dress has a ruching effect that rides up with every movement. The top of the dress I'm in love with the most because it comes down further in front than the stock photo and that fits my style. If you can get the dress to stay down it's a win because it is a classy look with black heels!

the fit was perfect. A little loose on top, hid my tummy perfectly. I would rent this again for another night out.

Wore it for a bachelorette night out. This dress hides all of your imperfections. Little too baggy up top though.

So, I rented this for an evening work event. THANK GOODNESS I got a bigger size!
This dress was great, very comfortable, but I absolutely freaked out for a minute. I had ordered both a small and a medium, and was extremely lucky/grateful that I ordered a size larger as my extra! The small was SUPER small! I had to wear control top panty hose to make this work, but since it was a work event and I wanted to look appropriate, I had planned to wear black tights anyway. The top was a little bit tricky, but the fashion tape worked really well. Just make sure you order a size (or two even! ) up from what your normally wear!

This was actually very flattering. I wore it out in Vegas. Forgot the fashion tape but it didn't matter! It is tight in the arms.

Night out with the girls in Vegas
Fit great. Perfect for Vegas. It is short so you have to be comfortable with that and the top is very low cut so you need tape or a tank if you want to cover up. Nice for a long night bc the top isn't a typical super tight dress except around the hips and legs but it's got some stretch to it. Would definitely recommend for a night out.

Perfect party dress!
I wore this for my birthday party! It was perfect for standing out without being overdressed. The slit in the front is very low so I pinned it with a safety pin which was perfect. It's a very flattering shape. Highly recommend this dress!

Nice LBD! Can be dressed up or down to taste.
I liked this dress overall! Very basic, with a really nice, classic shape. It is definitely a body-conscious dress, and I should maybe have sized up for comfort's sake, but the fit was fine. This dress is a good canvas to dress up or down to your particular needs/taste.
My complaints (which led to a three-star rating):
1) As other reviews state, fashion tape is a must, unless you want your belly button exposed (no judgement). Not a huge inconvenience up front, but just another thing to have to keep an eye on all night to avoid wardrobe malfunctions.
2) For a body-con dress that fits like a second skin, I'd have hoped for a more comfortable fabric. It's nice and light, but not very soft, and I definitely felt some chafing on the inside bend of my elbows. I wore tights, but I have a feeling maybe it would chafe bare legs as well.

The dress is pretty low cut so you'll need some tape, but it was a great fit. Tight on the bottom and looser up top. I rented for a bachelorette party... It was perfect!

Very fun dress to wear on a day out with friends!
I loved the cut and style of the this dress. My only issue was how open the chest area was. I didn't have fashion tape, so I ended up using a safety pin which wasn't ideal, but it was fine. Would definitely wear again.

Turned some heads!
It's a hot dress! Got a lot of compliments and didn't need a bra but had to use some fashion tape for the top so the 'ladies' didn't pop out. Runs a little big; good for hourglass women as the slightly thicker material on bottom hugs every curve.

Tons of compliments on this dress! Was told my legs looked like they went on for days :)
Fit is true to size, I wore the XS because it was a bachelorette and that was the look we were going for. I loved how it cinched in the waist so many times my waist does not match with the waist on the dress but this was great! It does open a bit however I wore a crop top underneath and left it open, added a sexy twist. Could also have been done with a body suit underneath. As long as your top does not look like a real bra and has something else going for it I think its a fun extra!

Bring a pin or tape
It's super cute but you need a pin or tape to keep it down in the front. You'll be flashing everyone if you don't.

Wore another dress
This was my backup dress and I ended up wearing the other one. I did not really like this one, it is VERY low cut so have your safety pin ready!! I am also not a huge fan of the jersey material. Not a bad dress but opted for the other dress instead.

24th Birthday
I wore this dress for my 24th birthday. Got lots of compliments on it.
Had to fashion tape the top of it to keep it in place, which worked great until the tape came unstuck!
Dress is very short!
As others have noted, there is absolutely no stretch to it, it was rather tight on my arms but once I had it on it wasn't too bad.

The dress was a bit tight, but perfect for a night out! I had to use fashion tape in order to keep the front of the dress closed, but it was an easy fix.

Sexy winter dress!
I loved this dress! The neckline is super deep so I decided to pin it in place. The skirt was very short.. even on me (I'm 5'1!). But it was sexy, comfortable and warm for the winter. Overall it fit well.
My only issue was with the ruching on the shoulders. The weight of the fabric made the shoulders fall forward and twist the arms a bit throughout the night. I'm sure no one else would have noticed, it was just a small annoyance. I would still rent this again regardless because it looked great!

Looking for an easy NYE dress and this was easy to dress up or down with the front slit. Definitely needs fashion tape (didn't come in package but I had my own).

Holy plunge, Batman! A gorgeous, seemingly versatile dress with a V tragically too deep to move in.
I love everything about this dress except that I had to pin it a good 8 inches above where the criss cross V-neck met, which led to weird-looking drape lines. But the ruched skirt sides and the batwing sleeves were wildly flattering, and I really wanted to like it in every other way.

really great dress, very flattering, loved it and would rent again!
Wore for NYE and was perfect! I was worried because the back up size i wanted was out of stock, but the small ended up working. the arms are a little tight like everyone else says but they loosen up and were not uncomfortable. The bottom skirt portion did not ride up like i expected it even though it was very tight. Like everyone else says, the front is VERY open and you need to either use fashion tape or safety pins to close it up unless you want to show everyone everything up top. I used a safety pin and it worked well the whole night! Gave 4/5 stars instead of 5 because you REALLY do need to use some sort of fashion tape or safety pin, which is not how it looks on the model on the website.

Loved everything about this!
This dress was a show stopper, as you can see it is a little on the short side and the neckline was very showy, but with fashion tape I was able to make it a little more conservative. Very forgiving in the hips and tummy area, flattering for my figure for sure. I had so many compliments on this dress, and if I have the chance I will definitely rent it again!

The process was so easy! A perfect dress delivered to my door, and a return label for afterwards.
I felt like a hawwwwtie in this dress. I received a million compliments. Made my legs look great; skirt was short and tight, and top was designed to be loose (must use fashion tape or you'll flash the world). I may rent this again. Would love to own it.

An NYE winner
After reading the other reviews, I had fashion tape ready when the dress arrived. Luckily, my couple pieces lasted through all the dancing and prevented any awkward wardrobe malfunctions. I ordered a medium and a small (thanks for the free second size, RTR!), and could have gone with either though chose the small for a more form fitting look. The dress was comfortable and breathable-- definitely would rent again!

Not my favorite rental, but okay for a bachelorette party
This dress was just okay. The bottom was very tight but then the top of it was awkwardly loose so the overall fit was not very flattering. As other renters noted, the entire front of the dress is basically open, so I ended up wearing a little lace bandeau underneath (I am not even sure fashion tape would have kept it closed) but even still I felt like I was pulling at the front of it all night. the sleeves are a bit tight as well.

Effortless dress! Super fun to customize with accessories!
Dress was very heavy and well-made. The small is a little tight in the arms so I went with the medium. The front is very loose so you will need to wear a camisole or use fashion tape. The length of the dress has alot of room to adjust-this dress would look good on anybody.

This was my first time renting a dress from RTR and I will absolutely do it again!
the fit was very true to size..I normally wear a 0 or 2 but went with the small for more length. I am 5'6 and the dress came about mid thigh wearing the small. The dress is made very well, and the fabric is very forgiving so I never felt self conscience! One note... fashion tape or safety pins! The top is very lowcut..but it still looked great even though I have nothing to fill out on top!

Very short and tight!
Like everyone else said, you have to pin or tape it or else you leave nothing to the imagination! It is also very short and I am barely 5'4.
Overall though, once I pinned it, it looked fine and the bottom did NOT ride up! It fit me perfectly in the M, the S was way too tight for me. It was a very comfortable dress overall once it was pinned close in the front!

Wore this to a work holiday party.
It is really short. I'm 5'3" on a good day and I was a little self concious in it. Nothing a little self tanner on my legs couldn't help, lol! Fashion tape for the top is a must to keep the girls from being totally exposed.

Sexy. Very low cut.
Rented this dress for weekend date night. I rented large and medium was my back up but the large was damaged. I wore the medium. The skirt part was tight and short but manageable. The top is lose and flowy and LOW. I wore a black tank top under. It was definitely a fun and sexy dress!

Cute dress, but couldn't wear it
I rented this dress in a S and M for my birthday party--- the small was great on top, but way too tight on the bottom, the medium, vice versa. The M would have worked but the shoulders were just too big... it looked odd. Definitely be careful in ordering this one. RTR was SO great about it not fitting, though!

I really liked this dress, except for the neckline. The fit was perfect, but I had to close the top with a safety pin. I don't think that fashion tape can hold this dress closed for long enough.

Flattering dress, but runs small
Loved this dress, super easy to wear and very comfortable. It does run a little small, I'm usually a medium and the large barely fit me. Super flattering and thick material for a cold night. Had to pull it down a little bit throughout the night while we were dancing, but fashion tape was definitely needed for the top, like everyone else has said. Overall, a great dress and looks great on any body type!

This dress was perfect for our 16th anniversary date night! I loved everything about it!
I was nervous about the fit after reading some of the comments about it being tight in the arms. I have larger arms and it fit fine. I was so excited. You will definitely want to pin it or use tape because it is really low cut.

Overall this is a simple LBD that you could wear to any event. VERY comfortable!
The fit is true to size. I initially wanted a Large since I'm 5'8" and was worried about it being short. But the medium fit just well. The fabric was thick enough to keep me warm at a fall night wedding.
