Special event party sparkler

Wore this to an Xmas party and felt so festive, but you could wear this to any party and feel super special! The color is brilliant and the fabric doesn't show everything, it's somewhat thick. Really loved the fit! I wore it w blue earrings and loved the combo!

I wore this dress for my bachelorette party and loved it!

The size 2 fit, but was very tight. I sized up to 4 to give me a little more room and a little more length. The dress did ride up a bit as I wore it, so you will have to tug it down a bit. This dress does run small. It was very fitted and made me feel great!

LOVED this dress! Did not want to return it!

Favorite dress that I've rented- it fits like a glove and is so flattering! It did run small, I ended up wearing the size up from what I usually do. I got so many compliments on it and would rent this dress again in a heartbeat!

I rented this dress for my bachelorette party and received lots of positive comments.

Fits true to size and hits mid-thigh. It's tight, but did not ride up my legs too much. Definitely great dress for a bachelorette party, or night. I would not recommend it as a wedding guest, since it's short.

Got this for a winter-themed costume party, ended up wearing another dress but I liked this one!

I ended up not wearing this to my party because it is very tight through the hips and i wanted to be able to dance. Like it so much, though, that I wore it to the office! the fabric is not stretchy but it is very cute. Definitely size up a lot, though, especially if you have hips and a butt like me.

Happy New Year!

This was so tight! I could barely sit down! I would have worn a size up, but it wasn't available when I placed my order. Also, from the look of the picture, I thought it would have had more stretch than it did. I have been a comfortable size 6 on the dresses I have rented in the past, so I thought this would be fine. It looked great, so I wore it anyway! I got tons of compliments and felt sexy even though it was so tight!

Rent the Runway was so easy to use!

I loved this dress! Wore it to a New Year's Eve party - it was exactly what I was looking for! A little short and I had to wear the larger size, but it fit my body type in all the right places. I was comfortable in the dress all night and got a lot of compliments on it. Definitely worth the rent!

Loved the experience from the moment I opened the package to the ease of sending the dress back!

The dress is so comfortable through the shoulders and torso, but runs a bit tight through the hips and butt. Still felt like a million bucket!

Short and Sexy

This dress is hot!! I'm pretty comfortable in sexy outfits, and even this length made me a bit nervous! It is extremely short, and rides up a bit. I'm barely 5'3, so, tall chicks beware! That being said, this dress is a showstopper. It fit like a glove. I could have went braless, and been fine. This would be a perfect New Years dress!

Great dress - lots of compliments!

I wore the dress to our holiday party and it fit like a glove! My only complaint was that it would ride up a little - although it wasn't too bad to keep up with. My husband loved it on me!

Great New Years Eve dress

I normally wear a size 4, and have worn a size 4 in an Elizabeth James dress before. Rented the 8 after the reviews, and happy I did! Dress was very short, not sure if the length changes with size. Had a little extra room in the chest. It was perfect for New Years. Just, highly advise getting a size up.

The dress was incredibly flattering and got so many compliments!

The dress fit beautifully. I have wide hips and a small torso, but the dress hug in all the right places and was forgiving with my lower belly area. I was concerned that it would be too sparkly for my subdued sense of fashion, but it was perfect! I wish I'd bought this dress because I got compliments from everyone at the party. Would definitely recommend this dress to a friend!

This dress made me feel so comfortable

This dress fit a little tight, but not to the point where I couldn't breathe or move. I got so many compliments on this dress and I did not want to return it! I got a size 2 and 4 and ended up wearing the 2. I highly recommend RTR, easy return!

Compliments on compliments on compliments

I have an athletic, curvy shaped body so it's always hard to find tight dresses that make me look good, and this dress did it! It hugged in all the right places. Definitely would wear it again!! I am usually a size 2, but the dress I wore was a 4 and was still a little snug...but nonetheless it fit great.

This dress is amazing! The fit of and style is beyond flattering and I received a lot of compliments

First time using RTR and I can say I will definitely be renting another dress. The dress was gorgeous and extremely flattering, fitting in all the right places showing off any curves you have. I wore it to a fraternity formal and received a lot of compliments. The shine on the dress was perfect, not too little or not too much. The dress does run small. I usually wear a 4 and the 4 fit me perfect, only thing was I had to pull it down every now and then. The size 6 was too big and made for someone who has more hips than I do. All in all, fell in love with the style and fit of the dress. It took everything in me to actually send the dress back because I loved it so much!

I wore this for my birthday night dancing, sadly this was the only photo evidence.

This fit like a glove. As other reviewers say, it runs small so size up. I'm normally a 6 and wore the 8. I wish I owned this and will probably rent it again. My boyfriend wishes I owned it too. I felt amazing.

I ordered this for my friend to wear to my sorority semi-formal.

This dress fit perfectly. It was snug in all the right areas but was still perfectly comfortable to dance in all night long. I would definitely rent this dress again. I did not want to return it!

Great NYE Dress!

Sexy dress, perfect for New Year's. Runs VERY, very small. I normally wear a 4, and I needed an 8 in this dress. So size up for sure. The fabric is thicker and of a higher-quality than I was anticipating. It's very form-fitting, but it's not see-thru. It's very short though, so I probably wouldn't recommend this for anyone with super long legs. I' m only 5'5 and this dress was very short on me. Nevertheless I really liked this dress and it was a cute find for New Year's.

Great club dress! More grey than the photo, and much better in person!

At first I wasn't crazy about this dress, but in person it's really nice - great for a club or night out. It's a muted grey color with silver swirls that are not super flashy. The dress is very tight and very short. I always wear 0 and went with the 2 this time just so I could breathe a bit better. For some reason the 0 is at least a half inch longer than the 2. I'm only 5'1" and I had to be careful when I sat down and even walked in this dress because it's so short. The material quality is great. Glad I rented it!

Great for my bachelorette party! (Runs small!)

I ended up going to the RTR store to exchange a dress that didn't fit and to try to find another one for my bachelorette party - I told the associate what I was looking for and that I was a size 4 and she brought me this dress in an 8. Definitely runs small, because the 8 fit perfectly. I loved the dress though - it was super comfortable, easy to dance in and perfect for my bachelorette party! Definitely the perfect party dress, just be careful about the size!

I got so many compliments on this dress! It fit like a glove and was really comfortable and well constructed. No riding up or bunching up in the middle. Definitely recommend.

Fits like a glove. Definite body-con dress.

This is the dress if you want the wow factor. My daughter rented this for her senior homecoming and it helps being 5'2" and 115#. I wanted to walk around behind her pulling it down but it didn't budge! She looked great!

I was a little worried since a lot of other reviews said the dress runs really small, but I found it ran true to size and there was plenty of give in the fabric. The fit is super flattering, with just enough shine from the fabric. Got tons of compliments!

This dress is hottt!!!

This is my new favorite RTR dress (given the appropriate occasion). I wore it for my bachelorette party and felt fantastic. Despite the dress being tight, it is somehow really flattering. I usually have a really hard time looking like I have a waist without some defined waistline, but this dress magically made me have a waist. It also somehow hides love handle imperfections, as I definitely do not have as smooth of a torso as this photo makes it look (and I didn't even wear Spanx). It is pretty short, which is really saying something because I am only 5'2" and dresses are usually long on me. I would totally rent this again and again.

I LOVED this dress, as did my husband! Everyone is right- it fits tight. I wore an 8 and thought I'd be a 6. It does ride up, too. But this dress is so fabulous, it's fine!

Super flattering party dress

This definitely runs small but once its on its super flattering and sexy. It is really tight and short which makes bending difficult but I didn't mind. Only issue I had was the zipper has nothing keeping it from sliding down so my boyfriend had to keeo zipping it back up throughout the night.

Fun dress for a holiday party

I loved this dress however it does run very small. I usually wear a 4, wound up wearing the 6 but would have preferred to wear the 8 but couldnt because there was a weird issue with the inside lining that kept flipping out at the bottom. Thats my only complaint, and the only time i've had any sort of an issue with a RTR dress. Just size up!!

Super Short!

I was worried this would be too big as they only had the 2 available for my selected dates - not only did it fit, it was snug and I'm always a size 0! This dress is shoooooort. Like super short. I was tugging at it all night. All in all, it was a super cute dress for NYE, just wish it was about an inch longer. :)

Loved this dress!!

I LOVED this dress. It was actually a back up dress I got when the dress I rented didn't fit well. It was perfect for the wedding I went to. I was worried it was too "shiney" for a wedding, but it's not quite as metalic as it looks, which I was happy about. I have an athletic build, with curvy hips...and it fit my body perfect. It was run VERY SMALL, even for Elizabeth and James. I am typically a size 4, but wear a 6 in Elizabeth and James. I actually wore the 8 in this dress though...I couldn't even get the 6 on my body. It was also a little short and I had to pull it down a lot while I walked. But overall I loved this dress and got tons of compliments on it!

My daughter loved the dress and did not want to return it!

The dress seemed a little too tight for her to me, but she said that she was very comfortable in the dress. (I ordered the 0 for her without really knowing her size. ) She didnt end up wearing the dress as she wanted to go with a red dress instead. But She actually loved the dress and didnt want to send it back.

It is so comfortable!

This dress fits beautifully! I don't why everyone is saying it runs small. I'm a true 0 and it fit me perfectly. The dress is not stretchy at all and the material is a lot thicker than it looks in the model photo. My only problem is that it is not nearly as silver as it looks in the model picture.

LOVE this dress- great fit, great look

I wore this dress for my college formal, and I loved it!! I typically wear a 0, and that is the size I went with. The dress is really great quality, and even though it's very fitted, the lining of the dress is thick enough to prevent any unflattering undergarment lines. It's definitely a short dress, but I felt covered and comfortable.
