Fabulously made dress- danced all night!
Pros- exceptionally well made bodice. Well structured with boning and built in bra. I did not need to wear a strapless bra under the dress.(36B-C). I'm a true pear shape and the fuller skirt was flattering without adding bulk to my hips. The waist is fitted and well structured to hold the bodice up. I never had to tug up the dress! Felt confident and sexy, and got a ton of compliments! Cons: the waist is fitted and structured and has no give. The 6 fit me perfectly but I could see someone with an apple shape needing to size up. I'm 5'4" and the length with heels was really nice as a 40 year old who prefers to not wear miniskirt length dresses. If you have fabulous legs this dress won't showcase them.

Color was beautiful. Dress ran large on me. Had to pull dress up frequently. If I had time I would have returned it for the size 0.

I wore this dress to my husband's work holiday party. The shade of red was gorgeous for the season!
The color of this dress is a beautiful shade of cherry red. It paired beautifully with gold accessories and a brown faux fur vest. The length hit perfectly just above the knee on my 5'7" frame. Although the dress is strapless, there was no issue with it slipping down, even during hours of dancing. The bodice is built very well. Gorgeous dress!

Fun color, great fit!
Dress fit really well. The top was comfortable and secure for being strapless, but I didn't feel like my B-cup chest filled it out. I wore this to a wedding and got many compliments on the color. the length was longer than expected (it went to my knees) which was perfect for a formal wedding.

Beautiful red dress! Great for many occasions!
I rented this dress for veterinary school graduation. Loved this dress and got so many compliments! I bought this dress and was deciding between a 2 and 4. I ended up renting a 4 and everything fit great but the bust was maybe a half size too big but still comfortable and easy to wear (didn't feel like it was falling down). The red is beautiful and the same as in the picture on RTR. I love that I bought this dress!

I wore this dress for my niece's wedding. The day was perfect and the wedding was perfect.
I normally wear size 2 on loose dresses and 4 on tighter ones. I wore a size 2 on this dress and it was a perfect fit for me (5'2" 123 lbs). I got lots of compliments. I loved the color and the style of the dress. So simple yet so elegant. It was exactly what I was looking for for this very special event. Thank you Rent the Runway.

The dress was beautiful. I received compliments all night. It fit very well and was true to size. The only downside was towards the end of the night the wire bodice started to poke through. Even with that, I would still rent this dress again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful bright red color; fun and comfortable
This dress was a bit tighter through the back and waist that other Badgley Mischka dresses I've worn from RTR. Unless you have a narrow waist, I would size up for your backup. Also, the zipper was extremely difficult to get past the waist seaming - even when it was on the hanger. Make sure you have a friend around who can help zip you. The color is stunning - a really bright and fun red and a great dress for dancing. I didn't have to wear a bra which was great but you definitely could if you wanted more structure. I'm a C but the chest could definitely fit a D comfortably. The top stayed up and in place all night.

I really loved this dress & had a great time wearing it!
My only complain with this dress was how long it was. I don't think of coctail dresses hitting below the knee, and this one was definitely mid calf for me. Thankfully a little bit of carefully placed tape allowed me to hem the dress for me event and not damage it in the process.

For some reason I could not get the size 8 zipped. I tried, my friend tried, my husband tried, I was about to send them back and I thought I will just try on the six just in case. The six fit like a glove and no problem zipping it! Wore to my friends rehearsal dinner and got many compliments loved this dress love the color!! Would rent again!

Super cute
This dress was great! I felt great in it. I loved the deep red color and the way it fit. The one thing I didn't like was how long the dress was, it went past my knees so it was a bit long. But all in all, it was a nice dress I'm usually a size 4, and so I wore a size 4 and it fit great. There wasn't much of a difference between the 2 and 4, other than around the waist area. I say it comes with a built in bra but it's more of a undergarment and not a bra so I did have wear a strapless bra.

I was afraid to rent this because I would only be able to get one size, but I'm glad I did. It was a perfect fit an even though I danced all night long I didn't have to pull it up at all, and the shade of red if beautiful.

The dress is a beautiful red color and fits well. My only issue is the length. I'm 5'3" and the dress went about 2" past my knees - so would recommend this for the taller girls!

It was back up dress so I didn't wear it but it was true to size (actually may even run big if you have a small bust) and cute. I am 5 ft 4 and it went to the top of my knee so I think it would be best on ladies 5 ft 6 or taller. Beautiful red and very comfortable but I went with my primary dress.

Beautiful dress and very classy.
Beautiful dress that was very class for a wedding that I attended in Florida in October. It stayed up and covered my chest fully, and it wasn't too short either, which is sometimes a challenge for me when renting dresses. The only drawback was that the dress appeared to have been popular/rented many times as there were several pulls in the material.

Danced all night and never worried about slippage!
This dress is beautiful and fun! It wasn't very form fitting at the cleavage so it didn't show off too much. I wish it would have a little more, it sort of covered everything even in a 32c. This was a comfortable dress and fun to dance in! The red is a true red and the dress got lots of compliments!

This dress was perfect for a summer city wedding!
It was a little long on me (much longer than in than in the picture with the model) and went well below my knees which is typically not my preferred style for a short dress (I like above the knee or maxi) but with a. nice pair of high nude heels I soon forgot about that, and felt very glam in the bright red. Just keep in mind that if you are of average height (I'm 5 6) it probably won't be as short on you as it looks in the model pictures :)

Lovely, elegant dress! But I wish it was more tight fitting!
Loved the material and color of the dress, but the chest area ran very large for me! I don't know if the dress was just stretched from multiple uses, but it was a bit loose so I had to pin it to keep it from falling down. I would definitely go one size down from your usual size.

Vibrant, fun dress
I rented two dress styles, so didn't end up wearing this, but it would be great for a party, especially a holiday one. Love the vibrant orangy-red color, but it wasn't the best fit for me since I ordered the 0 and 2 (based on other reviewers comments) and should have gotten the 2 and 4, instead. The four probably would have fit better - I could barely zip the 2 up and the zipper was sticky, too. I am really flat chested and thin, but also broad, so it wasn't as flattering as the black lace Milly dress I ended up wearing
