Most beautiful dress I've ever worn!
This dress is gorgeous. The detailing on the hips and the modest yet flattering cut makes it very elegant. I got so many compliments on it! I am 5'8", and I wore the regular with flats. It was the perfect length. The material has a good amount of stretch to it, and hugs curves well. Be mindful that because of the light color, you'll need something under the dress (slips, Spanx, etc.) to cover everything up. You won't regret renting this wonderful dress! I will definitely be using Rent the Runway again.

INCREDIBLE
I bought this for my family vacation on a cruise in March. The first one I received had a little hole on my backside and I called customer service and they immediately sent me another and overnighted it, which was in perfect condition. (The customer service here, ROCKS!) I received endless compliments for this dress all night. The detail is so pretty and I felt so feminine in it. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. I am 5'6, and I wore a long, which I am glad I did because it barely hit the ground with heels. I typically wear a 4 and the 2 fit perfectly. I would definitely recommend going a size down.

I am a photographer and rented this dress for my model. She looked stunning in it!
I rented the dress in 2 sizes just in case, but the fitting was perfect. It has a stretchy material that wraps around your body perfectly.

This dress was a style saver! Elegant, gorgeous color and a dress that makes you stand out!
I rented this gown at the last minute for a wedding I attended at the Wynn in Las Vegas. Wedding was on November 18 at 4pm and the temperature was low 60s so I didn't feel cold. I flew from Jersey to Vegas and saw there was a RTR store located on the Strip in The Cosmopolitan Hotel. The other RTR dress that I initially rented did not fit and the backup size was not available. Also, the backup size dress that they sent me was not close to the style I chose for the wedding and also did not fit. Basically I needed to start from scratch. This gown was absolutely perfect! The gown was extremely comfortable and made of great material but is easy to stain. The gown fit true to size. I wore a 4R and bought a pair of nude high waisted spanx from RTR to wear under the gown so I had no panty lines or bulges. I am 5'3 so I paired it with 3" nude sandals and the dress did not drag and I did not trip. I also rented a pair of Kate Spade earrings from my RTR that my stylist recommended. The highlight of this dress is the back, just enough skin to give it a sexy feel but still elegant and appropriate for a wedding and dinner at a five star restaurant. It also has a small train that makes you stand out! The blush color and few details on the waist of each side of the gown were simple and perfect for the occasion. I would definitely rent this one again! You won't be disappointed!

Classic and unique
This dress ran true to size and despite what other reviews mentioned is fully lined. I wore black spanx under it and you could not see them. The back is amazing too. There is a small train in the back which people kept stepping on but otherwise this dress was amazing.

The dress was a HUGE hit.
This dress is very flattering - even on my short, boyish, athletic frame. I chose to go spanx-less, since I'd rather a little tummy stick out than seeing the attempts at a cover-up. :) I wore one of those stick-on bras (I'm a 34C), and commando panties and that worked great. I'm 5'3, and the 0R was a little long, I think the 0P would have been perfect. I wish I could buy this dress, if only just to put on and wear around the house, it makes me feel like such a lady.

Beautiful, comfortable, unforgettable gown!
Gorgeous dress! I'm usually ALWAYS a size 2, but with the help of some amazing stylists at RTR Chicago, decided that a 0 fit better. This dress is stunningly beautiful and I got compliments on it all night! However.... It does wrinkle extremely easily. I changed into it right before the wedding in the car to help with this. And while I would recommend this dress in a heartbeat to anyone, don't wear it to a wedding! It is so light in color that it almost looks white - especially when the lights are low at a reception.

the dress was simple yet smashing.
I loved the elegance of this dress. Unfortunately a 6L was mistakenly sent, instead of the 4L. I definitely needed the 4L which is what I normally wear... So I would say this dress runs true to size. With the 6 the cap sleeves were loose. I would have rather had the dress a little more snug.

Stylist Review
This beautiful floor length blush Badgley Mischka dress is perfect for summer wedding! It fit true to size, but we recommend going up a size for the back up. It is great for any bust size with comfortable room and can be worn with a standard bra and recommend nude undergarments. This dress is fitted, yet stretchy. There is comfortable room throughout the midsection and hips, so you have no excuse not to dance all night long!

Very tight, you'll need the right undergarments. Material wrinkles easy so make sure you have a steamer (if you put in on and take off a few times)

Gorgeous, classy dress
I wore this to a 1920's themed party. It had a very "old hollywood" vibe and i got tons of compliments! i am 5'4" and wore 4" heels and the dress was still VERY long, requiring hem tape to make it comfortable to walk in. Loved the dress but took a lot of work to make it the right length.

Beautiful dress, but thin front
This dress was really pretty and I loved the back. The front was a little thin, and I could barely see my belly button through it which bothered me, but with a slip it would have been perfect. Make sure you wear a slip or a nude bra/underwear with it! I initially had black spanx with it you could see through it. I'm usually a 4 or a 6 and this fit perfectly in a 4. I would say if you're between sizes, size down. If I wanted to wear it with heels I'd have needed a long. I'm 5'6 and it touched the floor in the front in flats. It was plenty long in back.

Gorgeous dress, but didn't wear
Beautifully made, but accentuated my "fanny pack" that my spanx just aren't strong enough to hold in. Loved the beading and the back, but for a night of fine food and drink, I just wouldn't have been comfortable.

Dress was brand new when received with tags on still
This dress looked like a better quality fabric than what was received. Very thin material that was not very forgiving without a layer of spanx. It also wrinkled very easily. The head work was definitely beautiful. Fit true to size, but was a little on the short side. Dress arrived with tags still on it. It was still a beautiful dress, just not what I had expected.

Spectacular dress. Fits beautifully. I received wonderful compliments including "You look like a princess". The fabric is perfectly thick and well-lined though the dress requires spanks and a smooth bra. The back is dramatic and impressive. HIGHLY recommend this one. The most gorgeous pale pink.

Beautiful fabric, soft and delicate
Gorgeous details that included a train and back attitude. Intricate beaded details on both sides were so beautiful. I rented for my daughter in law who was 27 weeks pregnant. She is a 4 but the zipper broke and she had to wear the 6R which looked great on her and gave her baby belly enough room to shine.

I got so many compliments on the dress for the detail, cut, and train.
Must wear a backless bra since the back is low and there is no support from the dress. Must wear seamless panties since the fabric is thin and hugs all bumps and curves. The dress was 1 inch too long with 3 inch heals but it was manageable to walk down the aisle in and dance in all night.

RTR Team Review!
Gorgeous color, flattering silhouette! This gown runs true to size and is an easy fit due to the stretchier fabric. For backup, I'd recommend sizing up if you're curvier and down if you're smaller framed. You can wear a standard or strapless bra and there is room in the bust for any cup size. The waist and hips are fitted, but again an easy fit with the stretchy fabric. If you're looking for a smoother look, I recommend Spanx. At 5'7" in 3 inch heels the long length fit perfectly. Looks great with statement earrings.

Numerous compliments!
It is very form fitting, especially around the waist line, so undergarments must be smooth! As well as a bra, I had to wear flesh tone jellies because the back showed an line of any type of undergarment. Because it was so form fitting, I wore a lavender ostrich feather short capelette jacket over it.

Amazing 30's style gown. Wore a size larger for a 1930's inspired formal event, because the zipper on this one broke as I tried it on. Love Badgely Mischka, but their invisible zippers are hit or miss.

Elegant, but hard to wear
I wanted to love this dress, but it was too hard to wear. Based on other reviews, I ordered the "L" length because I am 5'8" -- but it was definitely too long. I wouldn't have been able to walk or dance in the L dress. Also, you definitely need ideal undergarments for this dress because it is pretty clingy and the back comes down far enough that you can't use a normal bra. I think a NuBra would work (didn't try), but even with that I would worry that the clingy material in the front would show the outline of the nu bra. All that being said, the design was beautiful and elegant and the cut and details were flattering, so it would maybe be worth finding the exact right undergarments.

Elegant Gown
This gown is a blush pink crepe gown that drapes in a very form fitting way. I usually wear a 6R and it fit perfectly. Because the back is open it was difficult to find undergarments to accommodate the dress design. Ultimately, I chose to wear another dress.

Cute, not bad, didnt wear it
Not bad, it looks a lot lighter in person, you can also see every curve and bump so proper undergarments are needed. Also its very heavy, looks like its light but there is some lining in there. Like i do with all my dresses for a big event i took a pic in it to see how it photographs, its not that great. makes you look boxy at the top if you are top heavy
