Perfect for pregnancy!

The dress made me feel beautiful! The material had a little give/stretch to it, which made it very comfortable at 30 weeks pregnant. I'm normally a size 6R and I only ordered the 8R since the 10R was already reserved. I really lucked out! The length and the size were perfect with heels and I was able to wear a regular bra which is always a plus when pregnant. Overall win!

This dress was Amazing! So comfortable and extremely flattering.

I wore this dress to the Marine Corps Ball and received so many complement on it. It was very comfortable and not too constricting, yet flattered my shape. The sequence were not irritating at all (that was my main concern), and I loved that you could wear a normal bra with it. I am 5'6" and 120 lbs and would recommend ordering the king size so that you can wear heels with it without it being An awkward length.

Lovely, comfortable, easy gown

I would say the gown runs a bit large. I could have easily sized down 2 sizes. Very comfortable. Even more beautiful in person.

Client wore dress for contemporary glamour session.

I am a contemporary glamour portrait photographer and I rented this dress for my client to wear as one of her looks for her session. The dress was true to fit--the size 14 long fit her perfectly--the wide straps allowed her to wear a regular bra, the flutter sleeve added interest to her images, the blue color looked amazing on her skin tone, and the dress fabric felt high-quality with just enough stretch to follow her curves. The cut of the dress was extremely flattering--the cowl neck provided plenty of coverage but wasn't boring. The client is 43 years old, 5' 8", a "C" cup size, and normally wears a size 14. http://shannonhemauerphotography.com/

The first compliment I got on this dress was shortly after I arrived, and they just kept coming!

The fit was wonderful; very forgiving of my middle-aged tummy, but not constricting. I was able to wear a regular bra, which was nice. I have never gotten so many compliments on a dress before!

Loved this dress! Got lots of compliments all night.

The dress fits true to size and has a little bit of stretch that works well with a curvy figure. I had baby #3 four months ago and I'm not back to my prepregnancy size or shape so I went a couple sizes bigger than my normal size 4 to hide my not-quite-toned midsection. Size 8 fit well and was a great length with four-inch heels. The dress was comfortable and I love that I could wear a regular bra. I got many compliments all night long!

Comfortable and glamorous!

I wore this dress to a night wedding in Boston and loved it. I received so many compliments and the dress was not only comfortable but stylish. I usually wear a size 6 but felt that the 8 was better. The only issue was the 8 was a little too long so make sure you wear a higher heel with this dress. Would definitely rent it again!

Felt like a movie star. :)

The ruching and draping was flattering, and it was pretty comfortable for a formal dress! I loved that I could wear a regular bra. I didn't love the cape thing but found that I could kind of push it up on my shoulder to achieve my desired look. This glamorous dress was perfect for the formal gala I attended, and I highly recommend it.

Wonderful black tie wedding in DC!

I was a little worried about how any of the dresses would fit being that I am 6 months pregnant. I am 5'8" with a decent size bump (3rd baby) so I was worried about length. I rented only a few weeks before my event so there weren't a lot of sizing options available. I usually wear a 8 in dresses. The only long option was 10L, i took a chance and got it, and it fit! I will say it definitely was not as long as I would like. I had to go find some flats, even my shortest heels would make it too short. With gowns, you have to have it slightly touching the ground or it looks funny. This dress fit awesome (minus the length) I wore a regular bra and didn't need to wear any spax or anything! I felt like a sexy pregnant mermaid. The pics definitely don't do it justice. The blue sequence is gorgeous!! I would recommend being pregnant or not! Flattering fit!!

Easy order! Easy shipping! Love RTR! Thank you!

This dress was awesome. I wore it to a wedding and was easily one of the best dressed in the room! People kept staring! It's really gorgeous! Hated to send it back! Runs true to size. Wish it was more symmetrical on both sides with the "swag" top but it is still very pretty. You can wear regular bra with it and regular undies! Very comparable! Regular length was perfect with 3" heels. Would rent again!

This dress has some stretch to it. I felt so comfortable all night. I received a ton of compliments!

I was 38 weeks pregnant and was looking for a dress that would be comfortable all night, yet formal for the event. This dress was perfect. I am 5ft 7, 200 pounds, and 38 D for bust. I went with the long even though I wore flat sandals. It was maybe a half inch too long so occasionally I would step on it, but I am very happy I went for the long vs the regular length!

My beautiful dress!

This dress was a lifesaver! My husband won tickets to a military ball a WEEK before the ball, and I was pretty frantic to find a dress that would fit my 8 month pregnant belly. The description of this dress said the fabric was stretchy and bump-friendly, so I tried my chances with it. I normally wear a 4R, but ordered the 6R and 8R and ended up wearing the 8R. It looked GREAT! I had several strangers come up to me and tell me how gorgeous I looked and that they loved my dress. (And when you're 8 months pregnant and a little self-conscious about being *by far* the most round girl at the event, getting so many compliments makes you feel like a superstar!) The dress was comfortable and I didn't think it was scratchy at all. I would definitely recommend it - especially if you're preggo and looking for something to look great over your bump. :)

So glad I chose RTR—and this dress!

This is the first time in my life I had complete strangers approaching me to compliment my gown. A girl could get used to this. Pros: amazing to be able to wear a normal bra in a fancy dress. Stunning midnight blue color stood out among all the black gowns. Cons: the shoulder flap was a little baffling, and needed to be pinned in order to stay up. Kind of wished it wasn't there, but whatever. Also, In 2.5" heels, I had to be mindful of the hem because it was settling on the ground. And my upper/inner arm area was a little scratchy from the sequins. But that didn't prevent me from dancing all night :) Just wish I had remembered to take a picture that would have shown it off more fully!

Compliments all night long!

This dress is amazing! It is very flattering and absolutely stunning! The dress received compliments all night long. I ordered a 0R, which just touched the floor in the front (back has a slight train) when I had no shoes on. So when I put even low heels on, it was a little too short for my taste. Because this was my backup dress, I had only ordered it in one size. I called RTR, where I got amazing customer service, and they overnighted a 0L to the hotel I was going to be staying. It was there by 11am the next morning. I was able to wear a regular bra, no need for backless or strapless. The dress is true to size, but has a little stretch to it, so I would not recommend sizing up if you are on the fence about sizing. I wore Kate Spade necklace and bracelet, which I also rented from RTR. I wasn't sure if the necklace would be too much for the cowl neckline, but I think it really made the dress pop. I cannot say enough good things about this beautiful dress! It is one of a kind and made the night special and memorable!

GREAT NIGHT @my church's 40th Anniversary

First I want to say I was so hesitate of trying out this site as I never rented a dress before. I love the convenience of online shopping but for something formal I really was hesitate. I wanted to make sure the fit was just right as I am well blessed in the top area (DD) and semi small at bottom. I also did not want to spend a large amount for an one time event and never wear it again. With that being said I was googling and stumbled onto this site where I than checked reviews and videos on YT before proceeding. I was already sold on the prices and the items items that were available especially for the particular event I was attending. I will say I am very pleased with the outcome. I ordered the dress I finally decided on about 2 weeks before event and it arrived a day before expected date which was great. It fit perfectly and gave me enough room to breathe. It was flattering to my body in a sophisticated modest way as I wanted. I also rented the bracelets which were so beautiful. Overall I will use this site in the future because everyone complimented my entire look and I stood out as I was the only one with this dress. Not that it would matter otherwise but it was nice to have an unique elegant look. I also want to note I wore heels as I am short and the gown was long but heels helped and at times I had to hold it with my hand to ensure I didn't walk on it and trip. Thank you RTR for your prompt service. Much appreciated!!

I am 37 w pregnant usually wear a 4-6 ordered an 8-10, wore the 10l. 8 fit but not with the belly so I'm glad I went up. The long was long I wore 4" heels and it was perfect for my usual 5'5" height with heels. Super gorgeous while preggo, received complements all night!

Such an amazing dress!

Out of the three or four times that I have rented from Rent the Runway, this dress was hands down my favorite. The dress fit perfectly, which never happens with me, and it was even comfortable. I am 5'6 and the regular was perfect to wear with heels, and it wasn't too long without heels. I really loved this dress, and I love renting with Rent the Runway. They make returning the dresses so easy and are fantastic to work with. I will continue to be a Rent the Runway advocate and customer!

This mom of a 1 1/2 year old felt a-maz-ing!

Wore this dress for the final night of the World Championship Horse Show...super comfortable and made heads turn (in a good way). I ended up wearing the larger of the 2 sizes sent just because I knew I would be sitting a good amount of time and didn't want it too end up feeling too tight. The smaller size would have been good too. Perfect length with shorter or taller heels because of the small train. Would wear this again in a heartbeat!

It fit beautifully. The only con was the sequins on the side of my torso were a little scratchy on my underarm.

My sister looked and felt so pretty in this dress, she wouldn't stop posing. She sparkled.

My sister is about 5 1/2 months along in these pictures (height 5'8", C-cup). Very flattering for expectant moms. The dress clings and gives where it needs to. My sister ran the dance floor. She was comfortable enough, in this dress, to drop down, snake back up, shake her hips and rock her belly. It glitters very prettily in low light. Just Gorgeous.

This dress was GORGEOUS and everyone complimented on it!

I am 6 1/2 Months pregnant and this dress was in the "bump friendly" section. Ironically ALL of us girls are in "Rent The Runway" dresses :-) I normally would wear a 10 or an 8 and I am 5'9 1/2" tall so I got a 10L and a 12L because I am pregnant and wasn't sure what size would work and the 10L was PERFECT. Very comfortable and beautiful.

Perfect Dress for This Mama to Be

I wore this to a formal gala when I was 29 weeks pregnant. I am a solid 4 in most clothes (specifically Banana Republic) pre-pregnancy and I didn't look at the measurements when I ordered - I just went by a friend's suggestion (who rented this same dress when 9 months pregnant) to order up a size. I ordered a 6 and an 8 as a back up -- so glad I could order the back up because the 6 was way to tight. The 8 was perfect. it was a bit heavy, but very comfortable all night. It fit around my belly and large bust and I could wear a normal bra. I am only 5 feet tall, so the 8 regular was long on me and I had to wear 4 in heels.

Loved it! So flattering and so many compliments!

I rented this for my sorority's spring formal. It was so flattering on my body and I got so many compliments! The sequins under the armpit were slightly itchy but it didn't really bother me! I normally wear an 8 or 10 and rented both the 8R and the 10R, but the 8 fit me perfectly.

This is a beautiful dress--looks better in person that on the website.

I wore a 6R in this dress. If you want to compare sizing, I normally wear a size 4 in any Ralph Lauren formal dress you can get in a department store. I have a 28 inch waist and 38 inch hips--it fit like a glove, but had enough stretch in it that I didn't feel like I would bust any seems when I sat down. I'm 5'5" and the regular length runs long. I wore 5 (yes 5!) inch heels and the bottom just skimmed the floor. This dress is a good choice for anyone who has some curves. I received a lot of compliments on this dress and it looks much, much better in person. The dress arrived two days early and in perfect shape. I would definitely rent from this company again. I also posted a pic of the shoes I wore so you can get an idea of how high the heels are--if I could reorder, I would get the short length of this dress and wear shorter heels....my shoes were killers to walk in all night.

This dress made my night unforgettable, I felt like a princess!!

This dress definitely fits true to size. It's extremely comfortable and really hugs your body, especially those with a pear shape. I loved the fact that it's one of a kind yet still modest in all of the right areas. I'm about a 34B and I had no trouble in the breast area at all. I doubt that it would give anyone bigger any problems because of the form-fitting material. I'm so thankful that I found this gown, I received compliments all throughout the night. I got to dance (crazily) all night without any trouble from the dress at all. The only thing I would watch out for is the length, make sure your heels aren't too tall. I'm 5'4 and my heals were about 3" so it worked out perfectly. I would recommend this gown to any teen that has a formal dance or affair. You'll look and feel like a million bucks! I'm so blessed that God brought renttherunway in my pathway. In fact, I'm about to hunt for a graduation dress right now. Happy shopping and God Bless!

This dress made it easy to dress up for a night out!

I normally wear an 8, but I've lost some weight so the 6 worked out nicely. The material has enough give that it fit perfectly. Very form fitting, so it's good if you have curves to show off. The back was a little longer than the front, so be careful if you are wearing stilettos. I got a little caught a couple times. The sequins never bothered me and it never felt tight or bunchy. It was nice to wear a regular bra and feel comfortable all night. Got so many complements!

Amazing!

The fit was remarkable, comfortable and modest. I loved that I was able to dance in it all night and still feel put together. The sequins sparkled in the sun perfectly. Only con: the top sequin drape in front would get caught on the sequins underneath, and sometimes I didn't realize it unless someone pointed it out. Overall: I wanted to rent it again. Easy process and loved the ease of delivery and return. I wore flats, regular bra, and loved the earrings that I also rented from here!

The fit was amazing but the length was a little shorter than I thought. I wore stilettos and I could have gone with a smaller heel and it would have been fine.

This dress was awesome for my first formal affair at my new job - loved wearing it!

I was most nervous because my "usual" size was not available but I took a chance and ordered down a size, hoping that the fact that I've slimmed down a bit over the last couple months would work out. This was just the boost I needed - the fit was great, and I loved the color, the sparkle, even the length worked for me (another concern because I'm short-ish). I described this to someone as glamorous (and elegant and sexy and classy) but comfy enough that I didn't feel overly formal - it's gorgeous but I didn't feel self-conscious about it because I felt great.

Great choice for the evening! Very comfortable and easy to move around and dance in.

I am 5' 5" and wore a a 3 1/4" heel and the regular was just right. If I wanted to wear any higher of a heel I would have had to go with the longer length. The dress was very comfortable and is very figure flattering. It does have bit of a train, which I didn't realize when I ordered it but was fine. I just had to pull it up when walking up/down stairs. Great first experience with RTR!

I wore this dress to awards night at our Mary Kay Emerald Seminar in Dallas, Texas.

This dress made me feel like a million bucks! The fit was superb....like it was made for me! There was spandex in the liner so it hugged my body and smoothed the curves. No tummy bulge here!! The compliments were constant and the dress looked fantastic sparkling under the onstage lights! I will definitely order this dress again. And I am a big fan now of Rent the Runway. I will be back for all my special occasions.

I received SO many compliments all night long. I felt beautiful!

Dress was sparkly and super comfortable! Very stretchy and hides many flaws. The train is adorable and doesn't getting the way at all. My only regret is since I was "working" I had lots of running around to do and I kept picking up the dress and the sequins cut into my skin under my fingernails, OUCH!

I wore this gown at 23 weeks pregnant and it fit like a glove.

I am usually a true 4; but because I am pregnant I went up to a 6 and ordered a long. I'm glad I did! The dress in the L wasn't very long at all. The color is more of a royal blue than the pictured navy. My picture post is pretty accurate color wise. There is also some stretch to it which makes it comfortable to move around in.
