Sophisticatedly sexy and elegant!
Love this dress! Prefect fit for a curvy girl. Modest enough neckline for a formal work event but not matronly. The sequin pattern is subtle animal print which doesn't overwhelm but rather adds to the dress. Cute bow on the side added a bit of whimsy while defining my waist.

Fit perfectly! Comfortable and pretty!
This dress was lovely! The fit was perfect, true to size. The length came just to my knee, so I didn't feel too revealing. Same with the top, nice cut but not too revealing. Loved the subtle sparkle and pattern. Perfect for hubby's Christmas party. Dresses arrived on time and in perfect condition. I'm now a little obsessed with RTR! Love!

Perfect Gatsby Dress!
I wore this 20 weeks pregnant and it was perfect. There is a bow that ties just above my bump. I have a feeling it may have been big in the bust if I weren't pregnant. Also the material doesn't give and there is no zipper or buttons. Just FYI. I got a lot of compliment and felt beautiful in this. I wish I could keep it!

I loved this dress!!!
Sequins under the arms rubbed a bit, but it was lovely and fun to wear! I wore it to a Holiday Open House for a friend's office. Perfect dress! Lots of compliments.

The reviews and photos shared by the community make the process practically error proof - thank you!
This is a pretty, sparkly, party dress that manages to be modest. I have a LARGE bust for my height and frankly, I am very self-conscious about it. My primary concern with any dress is the ability to wear a regular bra and show little or no cleavage. This dress accomplished that and more. Many, many compliments and not a single remark about my cleavage - finally! I ordered sizes 12 & 14. I will often go up a size to accommodate my bust and sacrifice good fit on the rest of the dress - that was not the case with this dress. I could have worn the 12 but I went with the 14 because it was comfortable without looking like it was too big. I am 5'3" and the hem hit just below my knee. I am so happy to have found a dress that I didn't have to tape, tug or adjust all night. :-)

Felt Fabulous at Gatsby themed wedding!
The fit was great, I was so comfortable all night. I agree with the other reviewers though, it does seem tight when you are trying to pull it on. However, once it is on, the fit is fantastic. I wore it with Converse due to recent knee surgery, but I actually got complements on the combo!

Everyone commented on how beautiful the dress was on me. The jewelry pairing was perfect!
In "normal" clothes I wear a 10-12, however I have a size D bust. The size 12 fit but was a little snug in the bust so I wore the 14 for comfort.

The compliments I received and the ease of the transaction
This was my first time using rentherunway I am a 36D++ and although I wear a 10/12 - sometimes need a larger size if dress is fitted. They only had a 12 and it fit perfectly. The other reviews said it ran large - it does but the clinging sheath style accomodates a smaller bottom (and bigger top) And there is good coverage - bra carriers - so everything stays where it belongs - I felt fabulous, chic and sexy.

Ringing in the New Year in an RTR dress (again)!!
So I actually ordered this as my backup dress for NYE. I was in love with it but knew it would be too long for me, but I just had to atleast order it and try it on. And I ended up going with it!!! I definitely wish it could have been like, 3 inches shorter. I am 5'4" and it came right to my knees. But the dress is SO pretty - the leopard print pattern is so fun and the sequins are perfectly placed around it. Some other people's reviews were right on - it is a pull over, so at first, you think it's too tight. But once you squeeze it on, you find it fits perfectly. It was ideal that I got to wear a normal bra, so that's always a plus. And some people get nervous about dancing with sequin dresses and the whole chaffing thing. So in preparation, I put some cocoa butter on my arms before the event. Who knows if that helped or not, but point is I had no chaffing problems. The sequins aren't nearly as prominent as other sequin dresses. Overall, loved the dress! I know RTR is so busy during NYE, so I really appreciated all their help in making this dress work for me!

I felt great in this dress all night. Didn't have to fuss with it -- so I could totally enjoy the event.
I ordered the 6 with 4 as back up. I wore the 4 so I'd say it runs just a little large. It's a little tricky to get on -- feels tight as you slip it on but once on -- fabulous! It's just the right amount of flash but conservative enough for an event with business associates. Would LOVE TO OWN THIS DRESS.

20s theme
You can't really see that the fabric is a print. I liked the dress a lot. It didn't really qualify as 20s, but with the necklace it worked (also from RTR). Needed the 6 for my hips, which is typical for my pear shape.

This was a great dress to celebrate my 40th birthday in San Francisco.
Ordered the size 10 but ended up wearing the 12 because the top was a tad tight. Just the right amount of sparkle to celebrate in without feeling too flashy. Length was just to my right above my knees. Styled it with a leather moto jacket to dress it down a bit. Overall, I would recommend this dress!

The dress was beautiful and I received many compliments on it!
The sequins on the dress do rub under your arm, which is a little annoying but I dealt with it. The dress could use a zipper to make getting into and out of it easier, I had a hard time getting it over my boobs - but once on, I was good to go. I am a 38D and my boobs felt a little squished in the dress, but they looked fine. If the dress was a little lower cut, I think it would have looked better, but because the cut was the way it was and it was cinched up a little high on the waist, I felt like it looked like I was wearing a sports bra - you know what I mean? But it did look great and I did receive a number of compliments on it. If you're smaller chested, the dress was beautiful - go for it! if you're a little larger in the chest area like I am, you may want to look at getting a back up just in case. This dress only comes up to a size 12. I normally fit into anywhere from a size 10 to 12. I have pants that are a size 8 - so it's a bit difficult for me to order stuff online, but this was a success! I did wear a drop necklace and matching earrings with it .. Thanks RTR!

The dress came one day earlier than promised, and was perfect for the "Sparkly" theme of the party.
This sheath dress is ideal for women whose top and bottom are equally proportioned. It would have been perfect for me if it were 4 inches shorter, had a zipper and the hips were a bit tighter. My chest is bigger than my hips, so the 12 fit my hips, but pulled across the chest. I wore the 14 so the chest fit well, and the hips were big. I tacked the hem up 4" to make the roomier skirt look more "fun" and less frumpy. I was comfortable and happy with my choice all evening. There is no stretch to the liner on this dress, so the description that there is "stretch" should be modified. This was my second attempt at renting from RTR. I had my sizes wrong the first attempt, so used my credit this time without any problem. I did better with my fit and was able to switch dresses after I placed my order, but before it was shipped. Overall, a fun experience!

Everyone loved the subtle and sophisticated glamour of this dress, especially me!
I wore this for my sorority semiformal and got a bunch of compliments! It was a beautiful dress, and very comfortable, however, it was kind of too long on me (as I am only 5'4"). Very flattering though! Also loved that I could wear a normal bra, so I was not adjusting or worried about any bra issues throughout the night. I usually wear a 10 or 12 in dresses due to my large bust, but I went with the 12 as the fit was a *tad* bit more comfortable in the chest as well as brand new with tags. The dress also has a beautiful, small leopard pattern that is more visible in real life than in the photos. And of course, the service from RTR was awesome!

Comfortable, elegant, conservative dress. A bit on large size.
This was my back up dress for a wedding, and it was a lovely back up to have. It slips on over the head, which is a little strange, but manageable. It seems to have a little stretch to it and even felt a bit big for a size 8. It's kind of a leopard print behind the sparkle and has a side bow, which I didn't realize from the picture. But, it was comfortable and elegant. I probably wouldn't rent it again, but I was happy to have it as an option when my first choice dress didn't fit.

Couldn't wear this
This dress does not have a zipper. I was unable to get it over my "ladies". I loaned the dress to a friend at the same event and it looked great! She received many compliments. This dress wasn't as sparkly in person as it is in the picture. It has a kind of animal print to it. Pretty dress!

This is a beautiful dress with just the right enough sparkle for our New Year's party.
Runs slightly small and is a little hard to pull on over your head. The tie is a little awkward and kept coming undone. It's also about 4 inches longer than I'd like. The model must be at least 6 ft tall.

Fun and Eye-catching Party Dress
I'm a PRO member so this was my free birthday rental that I used for dinner with a group of friends. I wanted to stand out as a birthday girl and this dress fit the bill. It ran true to size and didn't feel tight in any areas. I definitely felt glamorous waltzing into the restaurant in this! My only reason for giving it four stars would be the sequins feeling scratchy in the underarm area--and I figured this would be the case as I've worn sequined dresses before. Otherwise it's a great dress to make you stand out in a sea of LBDs.

Chic and stylish - looked fantastic
Great dress, I normally wear a size 6 and this was slightly big. No side zipper, so over the head and with the ribbon tied was fine. A slight adjustment in the neckline would have helped the look, but did not have to adjust too much. No back vent, so when you are walking/dancing there is a limited range for those under 5'3"

I LOVED this dress. I felt amazing!
The top of the dress was a little big on me, but I pinned it to keep it closed a little more. It was very flattering, and was super cute dressed up with a simple pair of heels. I would have kept if if I could have! :)

A fun take on a little "sort of" black dress
This dress had just enough sparkle to make it festive. The neckline was low without revealing too much, and the hem hit right at the top of my knees--perfect! I usually wear a 6, but the 8 gave me a little extra room to move around. The bow was a little hard to get just right, but overall, I really loved this dress. It certainly made me feel pretty and special.

This dress is delightfully deceiving. The intricate details required a second look.
This was my first RTR experience, it was great. There was a mixup with delivery to the hotel, but RTR was relentless in customer service. Many second looks, will rent again!

This dress was the perfect mix of classy and stylish.
I loved this dress. I wore it to a wedding where I wanted to look stylish but knew it would be a slightly conservative crowd. The dress was perfect for that occasion. I liked the length (just above the knees) and the coverage on top was great - form-fitting but not showing too much cleavage. The sequins and pattern made it unique and interesting. The size 2 fit perfectly EXCEPT slightly tight around my arms so I ended up going with the size 4. I probably looked slightly better in the size 2 because it was that much more snug, but I ultimately chose comfort. I would definitely rent this dress again.

Subtle pattern, stylish look
Love, love, love this dress. I am between sizes, so the 12 looked ok, but the 14 draped better. It is a sheath, you pull this dress on over your head. Amazingly, the armholes don't get exponentially bigger with the dress size- so I just felt much better in the looser- drapier fit. The tie in the front has one part which is much longer, so I think it is meant to tie closer to the center of the dress- which I did and it looked fine. I am long-waisted so this hit me above the waist but not under the bust- more stylish without that "trying too hard to be young look" . I am also an hour glass figure, so had no probelm with the dress draping well and still showing off some curves. I did wear a shaper underneath to help the dress hang better. The pattern is very subtle- a grey/black animal print that is overlayed with grey/silver sequins- shiny but not blindingly. Loved that it had the holders for bra straps under each shoulder. The v neck was low, but no cleavage showed which I liked. The length was just under my knee cap- also perfect. I got rave reviews from the 20- somethings- and I am 58! Thanks RTR! I would love to rent more dresses! I live in a smallish town, and socialize with a regular group- so this was perfect for me! Wear an up to date dress, but not have to invest a small fortune to look great!

This dress was amazingly beautiful. The fit was easy to wear and it was not itchy as many sequined dresses can be. I wore it to a black tie wedding with simple peau de soie Blahnik pumps, no hose. I wish I owned this dress because I would wear it again and again.

I thought this dress was going to be perfect - demure but with a little sparkle. I did not end up wearing it. It is a SHEATH dress - meaning there are no zippers, buttons, openings, etc. It's really a slip (but non-stretchy)so it's hard to get on. The design at the waist was lack-luster. But most important is that it felt and looked on the cheap side. Sorry RTR.....this dress didn't measure up.

I just love RTW! I have now used it 4 times and each experience is so amazing!
I usually wear a 6 or 8. I wore the 6. I am short 5'1" and it was a little long for cocktail but it worked. I am a 26B so it was a little roomy in that area but not bad. It was comfortable to wear all day long. Defiantly a beautiful dress that stood out. Thank you RTW

Beautiful dress. Gorgeous material, but have to have right body type for a sheath dress like this
The material was gorgeous. I have a curvy, average-size figure (Size 8/10), am 5'10" and this dress looked like a sack with a drawstring on me. Since it is loose on the top and bottom and gathered at the wait it looked awkward. It is a beautiful dress, just not the right style for me.

Comfortable and pretty, an overall good rental!
I wore this dress to my husband's work cocktail party last year. It fits true to size though I ended up wearing my backup size since I was still nursing. The sash is a ribbon and looks a bit odd with the dress, but it does a fine job defining the waist. It was comfortable, and I felt good in it. Overall a good rental.
