Slate & Willow

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.

Must have/buy body tape to wear this dress!

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.

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!

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.

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!

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

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

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!

I wore this dress on a night out in Vegas and it was so flattering and sexy! It was also very comfortable and I got many compliments.

Great dress - lower cut than shown in picture. Make sure you have fashion tape! It was more open than I would have liked, but worked for a night out in Vegas. Anywhere else, I would not have felt comfortable...

If you're busty boob tape is a must!

I wore this with a pair and of sheer tights and over the knee boots. I absolutely loved this. The only thing I would note is that the snap closure in the front didn't really hold, so I had to use safety pins which wasn't a problem. Loved this dress and felt sexy without being over the top

As did most other reviewers, I had to safety-pin the top together, and the arms were a little snug, but I still loved this dress!

The dress is not stretchy. The small fit snug, looked hot, and I was planning on wearing it, but I got makeup on it so I switched to the medium. It still hugged my figure in all the right places and the cut was forgiving to my hips. I used fashion tape to secure the front so that I could choose how much cleavage to show. I never worried about it the rest of the night. My husband couldn't keep his eyes off me ;)

The top part of the dress felt a little big. TAPE TAPE TAPE is your best friend.

The fabric was comfortable and stretchy, however the front falls open. Definitely need a safety pin or double-sided tape to keep everything in place!

I loved the idea of this dress but the top part (neckline) is not sewn together so it's completely open! Fashion tape or safety pins are a must! Other than that, I loved it. It's sexy but not too short and I'm very picky about the length of dresses. I wore this to Rent the Runway's Capstone Weekend Girl's Night Out event and it was perfect! Great going out dress.

I ordered this with another dress, and opted for the other one. I didn't have any issues, this just isn't my style. I prefer fitted, structured. This is pretty flattering. You would need body tape to hold down the front of the dress. It is also very short - I am 5'1" and the XS is short - I would have worn tights.

This was a my back up dress, seemed safe but still cute for the party I was attending. When my first pick didn't fit I figured this would be the one. Unfortunately no such luck. It runs super small through the arms and waist. The waist line has NO stretch so it was awkward to get on and off. The section of fabric on your upper back is wide & bulky. It was just a complete miss for my shape.

This was my back up dress but, sadly, when my first dress didn't work out my back up didn't provide any help! This dress was too tight in the hips - it fit but it was a struggle to put on - and it lacks a zipper to make it easier to pull on and off. The top, on the other hand, was too large and the wrap portion wouldn't stay closed. It would definitely need to be taped or pinned if I had worn it. The length of the short skirt paired with the billowy top portion just made my body look weird and disproportional. My husband said it looked like something Snooki would wear and I don't take that as a compliment! I'm not familiar with this designer and took a risk in renting it that ultimately didn't pay off. RTR is always great and was super helpful with my return. I'll continue to rent - I just won't go back to this dress or its designer.

This dress was just what I was looking for--a sexy, but not strappy going-out/party dress. I didn't end up wearing it (my event got cancelled), but I would definitely rent it again. Like other reviewers have said, it has very little give in the waist and the need to order a size up is mostly due to that. BUT, once you get it on, it makes your waist look really tiny! The rest of the dress is quite stretchy and will definitely fit over larger hips and butts. The arms are snug and fitted, but still stretchy. I have fairly broad shoulders, hips, and butt, but a small waist. Once I struggled a bit to get it over my shoulders, it fit fine. Usually I would be in between a small and medium in this type of dress and I was DEFINITELY a medium in this. The top area is completely open, but easily secured with fashion tape or a black safety pin. Overall, I would highly recommend this dress, but advise ordering a size up in back-up size.

Fits way too tight. The descriptions made is seem that it would be able to stretch but it really didnt. This was my first dress I ordered from the site and I am so disappointed.

I rented this dress for a cocktail party, and loved it. I needed fashion tape and safety pins to hold it together in the front, but overall it was really comfortable and flattering. I would rent again!

I wore this dress to my best friend's engagement party and got a lot of compliments. However, it is VERY short! I'm usually a medium but tried the large on first and when I saw how short it was I didn't even try the medium. I've never needed to use fashion tape because I have big boobs that fill out any dress but this neckline is very open. Tape is a must! Top is baggy and bottom is tight, but it rouches on the side of the hip so is very flattering through the waist. I wore it with black wedges and a statement necklace and it worked, but I would not wear it again just because of the length.

In theory this dress is great, and if it had been executed correctly it would be a very flattering, versatile dress. The ruched skirt is very tight and holds everything in, but the top is way too large. I tried to hold it together with a safety pin but it never looked right. If the top had less fabric the dress would be a definite hit.

This was my first RTR experience, and it was a super easy one. However, I don't know that I would go for this dress again. It is super cute and I got compliments, but I feel like I could find something like this at an H&M or Forever 21. It felt kind of cheap and I don't even think it was worth spending $50 on for one wear. I don't know, I did really like it, though. Just an okay dress for me, I guess.

I'm typically a 0 in dresses and even the S was too small for me. TIGHT on the rear and LOW in the front. If you want a s-e-x-y dress this is for you. Unfortunately, I was in the market for something less so.

It runs really short. I am 5'10 and it was super short as well as the neckline falls to the side as if it has been stretched out. The fabric is a bit to heavy for fashion tape to hold it all night so there were a few wardrobe mishaps that night!

I didn't end up actually going to the event, but this dress was perfect! I was supposed to go to an Atlantic City birthday party, but never ended up going. When I tried this dress on, it was perfect! It was tight around the hips, which was a perfect fit for me. The top portion definitely swings open a little more than I'd like, but I just used some tape. Great little black dress!

Fit was perfect. I recommend getting the double sided tape because the top of the dress is not connected but the tape held my dress in place the entire night. I wore this dress to a wedding and even with all the dancing I never had to worry about the dress.

I wore this out for my birthday dinner and a show in NYC. I paired it with pink Kate Spade earrings and bag. Very flattering. I taped the front together so I didn't flash all night. Would rent again!

The fit was true to size. The neckline is PLUNGING so you need to pin it or wear a cami underneath ( i did this cause I linked the drape). It is also pretty short, though I think it feels shorter than it looks. Overall. its somewhere perfectly between classy and sexy.

Great dress! Comfortable, fun, flattering! Fit like a glove. Very low neckline nothing that double sided tape can't fix. If you are larger on the bottom there isn't much stretch so you may have to go up a size. I wore it for a date night with my husband. It's a dress that you can dress up or down, shoes, tights with booties, etc....

This dress looked great with black tights and high heeled booties, although I wore it with combat boots and a long cardigan the next day and it looked even better. Beware--it has very little stretch, even though it's a knit. Once it bunches up nicely around your hips, it's shorter than you think it's going to be. (The upper arms were a bit tight, but I have flappy heybabies, so no real surprise there. I don't wear sleeveless for just that reason!) I had no issues with the deep v, even without fashion tape. Getting it on was a bit of a squirm, but once it was on, everything stayed put and looked terrific. It definitely runs small, though. I'm generally a 26 or a 27 in jeans, and the large fit comfortably across my hips but didn't fit a friend of mine who is more of the traditional hourglass shape. My husband thought I looked gorgeous, and I got lots of compliments from men and women at the party.

I rented this dress for a birthday party in Atlantic City. I am OBSESSED with this dress, I want to own it! The fit was great, very tight but flattering on the bottom and loose enough on the top. All the reviews I read said fashion tape would be needed however I am a size 34 D and wore a slightly padded push up bra and did not need fashion tape for the top. I wore tights so it was not an issue for me but the dress is on the shorter side so I can see where some people might be a little uncomfortable. Over this dress was a huge success!!

PROS: The quality of this dress is really great. It's a heavy fabric with little stretch. It was different from what I typically wear to weddings, so I felt really sexy and fun. People complimented me all night on the dress and my boyfriend loved it. I actually really liked how low this dress is cut in the front. It's much lower than on the model. You could get a away with wearing any kind of bra, if you have fashion tape. I didn't, so I just went without. CONS: RTR didn't include fashion tape, which I was expecting because of what I read on other reviews, so I had to constantly check to make sure I wasn't falling out. That was kind of a bummer. It's also VERY short. I'm only 5'3 (on a tall day) and found it hard to sit and bend over. I probably wouldn't have worn this dress without tights. In the end though, the pros outweighed the cons and I still loved wearing this dress. I would recommend it, but be prepared for it to be quite short AND how off your chest. (would be really fun in Las Vegas!)

Loved this dress and was complimented all night on it. I loved the dress. I have a really interesting shape- I'm a 36d, size 4-6 on bottom and have extremely wide hips. Some dresses look awful, but this was perfect. It is a little short and the top had a tendency to open up a bit but that was quickly fixed with an adjustment to the top. Overall loved the dress. You won't be disappointed.

This dress was very comfortable and subtly sexy. I wore the medium even though the small also fit - based on the venue (a nice dinner) I chose the less tight option (medium).

Had to wear fashion tape and spanks (thong version b/c of length). It was fun for a night out with the girls!
