This dress was great - it hugged everything in but smoothed it out at the same time, was comfortable for dancing & wasn't too hot for an outdoor wedding. It does ride up a bit, but the length was close to my knee so it wasn't an issue. I'm in love with neoprene dresses now. They hug you in all the right places and show off your curves without it being too much. The color is absolutely gorgeous as well. Would highly recommend for most body types - though I can say personally it works well for those athletic builds (I have broad shoulders & large quads and felt unbelievably comfortable all night).

I loved this dress and got many compliments. It fits like a glove so if you want it a little looser I would order a size up for the second dress. I've dubbed this dress the wetsuit dress. The material feels luxurious and is amazing. This dress hugs the body but was comfortable to walk, dance and sit in. I'm tall and the length was perfect. It did ride up a little when I walked and danced. I would totally wear this dress again.

I saw the pattern of this dress and immediately had to wear it for the wedding I was attending. I read a bunch of reviews and wasn't sure of the fit. I selected the size 4 originally, then switched to a 6 when it became available as I saw other reviews mentioning sizing up. I am somewhere between a 4 and 6, depending on the brand/fit. Two days before the wedding I received an email from Alex stating the size 6 came back too late or was damaged and wouldn't be able to be sent. She had selected another dress and sent it. Unfortunately, that dress wouldn't work and so I asked for the size 4 or a back-up dress if that wasn't available. Alex overnighted both the size 4 and the backup, and they arrived before noon. The size 4 Van Gogh shift fit like a glove. The neoprene is a really fun material, it contoured perfectly to my shape and I didn't need any additional shapewear, it smoothes you out so well!! I am happy I ended up with the 4 as I think the 6 would not have looked as good or as sleek. I received SO many compliments on the dress, and felt confident, sexy, and amazing all night, especially when dancing. I highly recommend this dress for a big, fun statement. It runs true to size and you will regret having to send it back! Absolutely great first experience with RTR!

This was my second RTR experience and just as great as my first. I rented this dress for a graduation dinner and it was perfect. The material is interesting--neoprene. I read the reviews so knew what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised when i tried it on. It is extremely formfitting but the material makes it very comfortable to dance and move in compared to other form-fitting dresses. I was so happy with the style and would highly recommend it.

This dress fit great and was very flattering. I received many compliments. It is a wet suit type material, which actually nicely keeps everything in. I rented a necklace along with this dress, which I wouldn't recommend due to the stitched black "V" on the dress' neckline. Putting a necklace over that looked silly. Overall it was a great experience.

I wore this to an October wedding with a navy pashmina & it felt very comfortable and weather/event appropriate. This was another great experience with RTR. I'm normally one for a solid color dress, but it was fun to go with this unique pattern. I will say it is form fitting, but not in a negative way. When other renters say it fits like a wetsuit, they are not lying. Wishing I could have kept this dress!

Loved this dress! Comfortable and sexy without feeling inappropriate given the print and high neckline (although I did wear a blazer over it). I usually wear a 4-6 in dresses and ended up wearing the 6 because it was a bit longer, but I'd have worn the slightly tighter and shorter 4 if I'd been going to a bachelorette party rather than a work event.

The color was a little bit different than the photos online. I rented this after the original dress I had picked out was damaged beyond repair. The dress was made of a neoprene material so it fit like a glove, the material was thick but very comfortable. Was definitely very body hugging.

Like many others have said, the material is not usual, I felt like I could have gone surfing after the wedding - without changing! But, it fit amazing and I absolutely loved it. Perfect for an outdoor wedding. I didn't notice much difference between the 6 and the 8.

Flawless fit, incredibly comfortable, stunning pattern, vivid colors. Definitely made to stand out in a crowd. I'm not normally a print person, and wasn't impressed with this dress on the hangar, but it came to life when I tried it on! The neoprene fabric was form fitting yet flexible and very soft. Fun, flirty, unexpected twist for a cocktail or party dress. Received tons of compliments.

This dress is neoprene, but it feels amazing on, like a glove. It was a warm day, but the material reacted quite well to it. The color and pattern is BEAUTIFUL and bold. I felt so great in this dress and recommend it! It doesn't suck you in as much as I thought though, so food babies etc. aren't too hidden.

I rented this for a summer wedding and I loved it! The material is almost scuba like but it turned out to fit perfectly. It's not restricting at all and very easy to move around in. The colors are bold and I got compliments all night! This dress is true to size and since I am about 5'10 the length was perfect. Would definitely recommend and rent again!

It fit comfortably and very form fitting.

flattering, bright colors, more fitted than the model.

Fits like a glove

I wore this dress to a May wedding. I have fair skin and dark hair, so I avoid pastels in my wardrobe and loved that this dress had rich, deep purple and deep coral. The thick, flexible scuba-like material made it more formal and chic than it might have been with thinner material. It skims the body but isn't shrink wrap tight. I really liked it and didn't need to add much jewelry or other styling. A few things you may not be able to tell from the descriptions and/or pictures: The design on the dress is printed and flat, so nothing protrudes. There is also a narrow, black, V-shaped seam along the chest, and another black seam along the hem, almost like the seam you would see on an inside-out garment. Also, the 2 was ironically much tighter than the 0. I saw that another reviewer had the same issue.

Most comfortable dress ever! Probably would've worn the 0, but the one I was sent was actually larger than the 2!

I am a curvy girl so it wasn't as loose fitting on me as it was on the model. It fit me like a glove, and i loved it.

This was a really pretty fun dress. The fit is very snug. I went up a size to be comfortable. If you are tall like me I would highly recommend going up 1-2 sizes. But I was comfortable and loved the dress. Could be dressy or casual depending on how you style it. Racer back bra worked perfectly.

This dress is great! It's made out of a neoprene, wetsuit material which is thick and comfortable. It hugs in all the right places and was not even too short on me, which is unusual. I received so many compliments and would definitely rent it again!

The material on the dress is similar to a wet suit. I loved the dress and wore it to a rehearsal dinner. I ordered a 2 and a 4 but ended up wearing the 2 because the 4 was too big around the neck. I received numerous compliments and would highly recommend it to other people!

Great dress! I wore it to a school fundraiser. The dress was conservative yet fun. I usually wear a 6 and the dress was true to size. Scuba material as described in other reviews is accurate but it made the dress very comfortable-lots of dancing is possible.

Wore this to a friends wedding in Napa. The thicker fabric was great for when it got cooler at night. Like others said it doesn't photograph like it looks. Very comfy dress

As previously reviewed, this dress fits like a wetsuit! The material clings to your body and hugs curves almost like thicker spanx. Because of the tight fit, you don't need much underneath. I usually wear a size 4, and I ordered a 4 reluctantly, but the dress I received was true to size. This dress worked great for my husband's 30th birthday surprise party!

I rented a 0 and a 2 and for some reason the 2 was smaller than the 0. The dress is definitely tight. I'm only 5'2" so it was a little long. I wore with black tights and heels. I felt confident and sexy.

up a size due to the neoprene would help!

The wet suit material took me off guard at first but it was really warm and comfortable. Got tons of compliments. Very easy to dance in. Rode up a smidge when walking but nothing crazy. Fit like a glove. Great for a wedding you have to travel to as it doesn't wrinkly. There is a sewn 'V' on the chest that I didn't notice on the initial pictures but it almost takes the place of a necklace. Hair up or down works really well.

The dress fits very snug. I love the length of it, just above my knee I'm 5-5ish. The color was amazing it shimmered in the day light, perfect for the sunset wedding I was at. Dress it up with black heels that match the stitching on the bottom and the neckline and red lipstick and its unforgettable. I'm curvy and still liked how it hugged my curves it showed me off without clinging to the bad parts. Cynthia Rowley's designs are always impressive and this didn't disappoint as my first RTR purchase.

Loved the print and colors of the dress. Material is a stretchy neoprene, which is comfy, but it definitely hugs your body and so would say if you're not comfortable with that i wouldn't recommend it. Because of the material, also tends to ride up a bit so did have to keep tugging it back down. Spanx recommended!

I generally don't opt for a print (especially a floral this large), but the rental option made it a good time to try something new! The neoprene fabric felt a bit like a wetsuit...it wasn't too constricting though. This shift was very stretchy in case you have some moving/dancing on the agenda! I wore this to a John Legend concert at an auditorium, although it would also work nicely for a brunch or dinner out during spring. While the color combo was nice, it wasn't my favorite rental ever

This is European sizing so the 6 fit like a 2/4. The neoprene wore really nicely and I didn't feel like I needed Spanx because of the thicker fabric. Not sure this would be a good choice for warmer weather. Nice length. Not too short. I wore with the House of Harlow gold cuff and chandelier earrings.

This is a really cute and fun dress - though not what I was expecting! The dress is basically like a wetsuit--I didn't read the details closely and missed that it was neoprene! Along with the material, the zipper and stitching really are reminiscent of putting on a scuba wetsuit. Although that description might seem like a poor choice for a wedding rehearsal dinner, I was very happy with it. As one might imagine, the neoprene fits snugly. I usually wear a size 0 or 2, but went with the size 4 on this one. The smaller size fit okay, but it was a bit too "glove-like," so I would definitely recommend ordering the backup a size up. One added bonus is that it doesn't wrinkle at all, so if you need to pack it in a suitcase, you can be confident that it will be ready to go when you unpack, even if your suitcase takes a beating

The dress was stunning, but even after ordering BOTH my size and the size up, the dress was just too small. The neoprene bunched terribly around my hips, though the bust fit fine. I would have been able to wear it for a more casual occasion in a different venue, but the tightness made it very inappropriate for a formal wedding.

Super thick stretchy material, feels kinda like scuba material. Loved it! I wore it three times!! Twice to work and once to a party. Received lots of compliments on this.very colorful and flattering.

Stretchy material made for an amazing fit. Loved it!

I wore this dress for a bridal luncheon and then throughout the day for the wedding rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. It was very comfortable and easy to move in. I ordered the 6 and 8 sizes and ended up going with the 8. The 6 still fit, as the material is a stretchy neoprene style, but the tighter fit of the 6 highlighted any bumps, etc around my hips. The 8 still fit my body and lines but was a bit more forgiving. With a racer-back bra there was nothing that showed. The dress has such great colors and the fun v-line threading from the neck down meant I could wear very simple shoes and jewelry and just let the dress be the star of the show. Very happy with this rental.

The material is odd but super comfortable! It was stretchy. The fit was really flattering and my husband loved it!

Loved this dress for work. Great colors, really vibrant. Comfortable scuba material. I usually wear a 4 and wore a 6 so it was comfortable all day.

I loved this dress. The colors are beautiful. It is a thick scuba material and I'm usually a 2 and sized up to a 6 which fit perfectly. Wish I could own it!!!

This was a backup dress I got after my first selection was not available to ship. I was weary at first but once I put it on I felt great! Such a fun, unique dress. The material was actually super comfy and didn't leave any sweat marks even after a long, hot outdoor ceremony. I am usually between a 4 and 6. I ordered a 6 because I was nervous about the fit. It fit me well. I probably could have also worn the 4. Since I don't have much junk in the trunk it bunched a little if I didn't pull it down. I'm thinking the 4 may have been tighter. Either way the 6 was still great. Very stretchy material. I received many compliments on the dress!
