Product Reviews
This dress was perfect for the "festival cocktail attire" award ceremony I attended.
This dress comes to life when you put it on and walk! I am a women with natural curves and this dress accented them all, which can be a bad thing unless you are prepared... Let's start with the cons: 1. The dress is made with extremely thin material. Please do yourself a favor and buy the seamless / commando under garment. (you will not regret it!) I also purchased the seamless adhesive bra (Nubra) and the double sided fashion tape to hold my girls in place. All three additional purchases helped me feel 100% confident in this dress. Great, now that I'm finished with my one con, on to the pros: 1. This dress comes to life when you move. There is a high slip on each side, which you can not see when standing still but as soon as you walk and a little air gets underneath the dress it makes you look as if you are floating!!!! (p.s: I wore three inch heels) Make sure to lead with your hips/ pelvis in this dress, ladies! 2. The bold, vibrant color looked amazing against my brown skin! It was an instant feeling of power and control. 3. Yes, it is a full length, long sleeved dress but remember the fabric is thin. I wore this in an air conditioned venue in early June in Chicago (about 75 degrees outside) and was comfortable all night. 4. You can wear the top as a deep or moderate plunge. I read some of the reviews prior to renting this dress and was worried about the plunge being too deep, but I think they added a clasp that can be hooked or unhooked to help with that problem. I hooked the clasped and did not have any problems. Okay, I hope this review helps the next women who is debating over this dress. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised once you try it on!

Lots of compliments
The cut is low, so I used a safety pin to make the neckline higher because I was at the event with my dad... However, it was a beautiful dress, I wore a light pair of spanx underneath, not a problem. The red is very bright and I received lots of compliments. I used a clip-on earring over the hinge on the dress because the metal was a grey color and I had gold earrings on. It does have slits on the front sides but the dress stayed closed for me. Very drapey, very dramatic, very happy with the dress.

I loved this dress- would rent again!
I'm 5'11'' and the long fit perfectly with 1 inch heels. I'm normally a size 8, but I had twins 4 mos ago so I'm probably a solid 10 right now. I would say I was in between the Medium and the Large, but was more comfortable in the Large. I didn't wear a bra and used fashion tape to keep the deep neckline in place. You def need to wear a slip as the fabric is thin. I also rented the necklace and bangles and thought they looked great together. Wore silver shoes.

Beautiful dress, gorgeous color. Perfect for hiding 5 week post-baby belly and flabby bits.
Beautiful dress, gorgeous color and perfect for a formal event I had to go to 5 weeks after having a baby. (With major help from my spanx.) showed off by post-baby cleavage and hid my post-baby tummy as well as any dress I could imagine. Made this sleep deprived mom of 3 feel, dare I even say, glamorous for an evening. I'd rent this dress again for sure when I've slimmed down but it was great for my currently fuller figure as well. I ended up closing the optional fabric closure for a little less boob but love having options with a dress! This is a great RTR dress because exact fit isn't as big an issue as it could be with a tighter, strapless gown (which was my first choice and looked horrible on me. Thanks pregnancy back fat). I'm normally a 2/4 and right now am about a 6/8 and the medium fit great. One thing to note that I wasn't aware of--I'm 5'7" and the dress was easily 2" off the floor which was great for walking up and down stairs but your shoes will definitely show. And I'd order a long if you're a taller girl.

I loved being in a room full of black ties in this bright, beautiful dress! Definitely a stand out!
I loved this dress! It was perfect for the occasion and the fabric made it easy to pack and take on a plane. The back is a bit sheer, so be careful with your undergarment choice! I'm tall, so I ordered the long..and it was LONG! I wore a 2-inch heel and it fit perfectly. The color was perfect, fit was great. The long sleeves were nice for cooler temperatures, plus I LOVED how comfortable I felt.

Felt like I walk right off the runway! Super sexy and chic!
Loved how this dress fit a small chested gal like me! It gives you the option of unhooking the bust area for a super sexy deep-v look which I loved! I didn't even have to wear a bra or fashion tape with it either. Color totally pops and the length was perfect on me but might be too long for someone under 5'5 unless you were rocking sky high heels. Super comfortable too. Would definitely rent this one again!

Rented this dress for a wedding and loved it. Wish I would of rented a size down, but it was not available. This dress is long! I've rented longs before and still have to wear flats, but was so happy I could rock heels with this one. I used fashion tape to help keep the dress in place and did not use the eye clasp. The color was fun and different from most dresses, but there was another girl at the wedding who rented the same dress. We couldn't be more different in appearance - she has gorgeous dark hair and a tiny frame and I'm a tall blonde so very few people pointed out that we had the same dress and she looked awesome in it too. I give the dress and the evening two thumbs up!

Very comfortable and pretty
Other reviewers were right…you do get a lot of compliments. I ordered the MR and the LR but the large was too big in the shoulders and the sleeve length. The bust was too tight and revealing -- I AM pushing 60 years old -- so luckily I had brought a lace camisole bra (forgive me Mr. Halston). We were on vacation/business trip and had the dress delivered to the hotel and then asked them to handle the return as the gala was the last night of our stay. Everything was so easy. The dress feels like pajamas and the length was perfect for me with 3" heels. Be careful what you choose for undergarments as the back is rather sheer. Material moves and sways beautifully.

Having a comfortable dress that fit like a glove!
This dress was extremely comfortable. It ran a little large, I would recommend getting a size down for your back up. I am normally a small or an extra small and the XS fit perfectly. It was a little more low cut than I expected, but it was easy to fix that problem with fashion tape. I would suggest this dress to everyone!

This is a stunning gown!
If you want to own the room, rent this dress! I had both the small and the medium, but wore the medium for more arm room and length. I also wore a bra with it, and just closed the optional chest button and used fashion tape. The compliments were endless. I can't say everyone was staring at my eyes, so be prepared for that with this gown. I loved this dress so much!

I wore this dress to the NAACP Awards in Los Angeles
This dress is a gorgeous Tomato Colour. The fit was true to size and very comfortable. The fabric was a nice weight and draped beautifully. It also had quite a bit of stretch which is nice, especially if you are sitting down for long periods of time, as I was! The necklace recommended with the Model on the page, complimented the dress perfectly. I got many compliments that evening! The ONLY issue I had, was that the dress was quite low cut and although it has a hook and eye closure, i have big boobs, which pushed against the hook and eye, leaving a little gaping hole. I had to secure the fabric to my chest with fashion tape, and was rather conscious about it all evening, but it didn't ruin how I felt in the dress.

The color!
The dress was lovely and the orange /red color was a hit during humdrum February! It was very comfortable. I usually wear a six or eight and I am glad other women said the dress runs large because the small size was perfect. I could have used the longer length as I am 5 foot 7 1/2 inches. But I had a low heeled shoe,so it worked out well. If you want to wear a higher heel, and you 5 foot 7 1/2, order the longer dress. The dress showed a more cleavage and I usually show!

Gorgeous! I received so many compliments all night and was beyond comfortable.
I ordered the S and XS knowing I had lost some weight but typically taking a size small or medium in dresses. This was my first long rental so i was worried since I am only 5'4" but the length was perfect with a normal 3 in heel. The dress was extremely comfortable as well. The small was far to big so I went for the XS. There is a small eye and hook to close up the cleavage but im fairly small chested and found it just didn't lay quite right when hooked. I did have to forgo a bra because of the deep plunge and opted for pasties but the look was just enough sexy and without being to much. I did try an adhesive VS deep plunge bra but note that the cups were to large and the top so they still stuck out of the neckline. I would buy this dress in a heart beat.

The bright color was amazing!
Both the LL and XLL fit me but I decided to go with the XLL because it gave me a little more room in the bust. I did have to safety pin the top together so it wasn't so revealing, but that's my personal preference! Overall, this dress was perfect for a formal winter affair. The material draped really well and the cut was formfitting but also very forgiving. The color matched the picture online too!

This was a last-minute rental and it arrived a day early!
Amazing dress! Perfect for a winter evening. I paired it with a cropped jacket &black stiletto booties. I read a review that said it was see-through, but I didn't get that at all. Maybe she just tried on a very small size? I did wear spanx, but this dress was thick, heavy, and incredibly forgiving. I elt like a million bucks!

At 5'7" I often find myself in between R and L, and this was the perfect length. Probably the most comfortable dress I have worn at a formal affair.

I loved being able to buy a full ensemble from RTR. It made my life less stressful and looked great!
I choose the Medium Regular Length because I read a review of someone with similar height stats and I figured the regular length would work. I tried on the Small Long and the length seemed almost the same to me and the small fit everywhere but the chest. There is an eye and hook above the detail in the front and it if you a bigger chest it will be open and it doesn't look right. The medium size dress was trying to open up some as well but not anything like the size small did. This dress is see through on the back side, so be prepared to wear no underwear or a nude thong. Overall this dress look amazing at the event I had to attend. Sorry I do not have a better picture but no phones were allowed at the event but here is our paparazzi photo:-)

James Beard Awards at Lyric in Chicago ("Oscars" for food), at the Lyric Opera. Once in a lifetime!
Beautiful for women who are 'real sized'! VERY low cut, careful! I am a 34DD and needed to pin the front. Be aware that the front is built to look like a long over-jacket, but really the front is a panel with two overlapping side panels coming in from left and right that create very high slits on both sides - no problem at all for standing still but if you are in a breeze you will show LOTS of leg. I had to hold the front of the dress together to cover my long Spanx. :-) At 5'9" and wearing 4 inch heels, this length was perfect. This dress made me feel absolutely beautiful. Sorry no full length pics; I'm 4 inches taller than DH so most of the time I sit.

Fantastic pick for 8 months pregnant!
The L fit ok but was too short with the belly bump. The XLR was a tad bit too big but it gave me extra room in the bust and belly and was the perfect length for 2.5" heels. The material was comfortable and overall the dress was very easy to wear. The clasp in the front is a steel color so I decided not to wear gold and went with matching jewelry. Also I would have brought tap or pins or something to pin the front for a little extra boob coverage-otherwise loved the dress and got a ton of compliments.

It's a beautiful color and arrived right in time. The material is very beautiful and slinky
It has 2 dramatic high slits on either side of dress. Which was fun. You cannot wear a bra or nu- bra due to the extreme deep V. I wore breast- lift petals and tape to keep V in place. Also the material is so fine and slinky, any underwear seams or bands would totally show. The new seamless, high- waist bike short Spanx worked perfectly. It is a show-stopping color. I felt very Studio 54, in it- which I loved.

The dress was extremely comfortable and flattering!
The dress fit wonderfully, and if it weren't for my 34 DDD a small would've fit fine. I loved this dress, I will say I was a bit self conscious worrying I was showing too much cleavage, but it was fine because the clasp in the middle offered a nice cover up. This was a very elegant, comfortable dress and I received many compliments on it. The length was also not an issue on the regular: I am 5'5" and wore two inch heels with this dress... my shoes didn't show.

Perfect for a chilly February wedding held on Valentines Day. Very Glamorous! Sexy but classic.
Both the RS and RM fit, but I liked the tightness on the arms of the RS. It's low cut but has a little clasps the keeps the 2nd layer from gaping open. I have DDs so reinforced that with a little fashion tape which did the trick. The dress is long - I'm 5'6" and it hit the floor with 4" heels on.

I wore it to my husband's holiday work party.
The dress was comfortable and the color was very pretty. It ran a little big. I wore the large but could have gotten away with the medium just as easily. I don't think it's a good fit for busty girls. It lost its chicness when it was too form fitting up top. I also had a little trouble walking because my heels kept getting caught in the hem. I got a lot of compliments, but I don't think it was the best look for me.

Amazing! One of my favorite RTR finds!
I wore this dress 7 1/2 months pregnant to a black tie wedding. It was absolutely perfect. You will need spanx because the fabric is a little thin and fashion tape. I am 5'6 and I rented a Small/Regular but if you prefer to wear high heals, rent long because I ended up wearing flats. Received so many compliments. Loved.

Wore this for and oscars party at my house, and I felt red carpet appropriate all night!
The dress is absolutely beautiful, it's long (maybe too long for shorter gals) and low cut (again, maybe not for busty girls) and the colour is rich. Looks expensive and is so fun to wear. My only complaint is that the fabrics is a bit rough so not the most comfortable dress in the world. But that's the price we pay for beauty right!

This is a stunning dress, and you'd be hard pressed not to feel like a million bucks wearing it
I had to go a size down and wasn't able to use the more modest V option, so hello cleavage... but I still loved the dress. The fabric is a sort of medium weight so it hangs nicely, but it did show a little cellulite on my bum depending on the lighting (this may also have been due to the smaller size). I wasn't prepared for the nearly thigh-high slits that hide under the first layer of the dress, but they were so fun when I was walking, it was very dramatic. It also was fun to show that skin when I sat down and crossed my legs. All in all I'd say every woman should wear a dress like this sometime in their lives.

Wore this dress for my Babyshower & felt super comfy & beautiful. Complemented my baby bump nicely.
The material of this dress is stretchy. I ordered it in MR and back up dress LR as I'm 32 weeks pregnant. The MR fit the best. The cut is a little low so it's best to not wear it with a bra. My dress didn't come with the clip in the front so I had to pin it together. It's a little see through but nothing a pair of spanx won't fix. Over all the dress is super comfortable and very light. The length was also perfect to wear with flat shoes. I got so many compliments on this dress. Loved it never can go wrong with rent the runway.

Great dress! The bright color was eye-catching and got so many compliments. The top hook definitely comes undone at the slightest movement- make sure you safety-pin to hold it in place. Stretchy fabric was easy to wear, but also shows undergarment lines so make sure you have your spanx ready for underneath. The dress length and sleeve length were both perfect with heels. Loved how the dress moved. You'll have everyone's eye in this bright red!

A bump-friendly dress that still made me feel stylish!
This dress is very stretchy which made it great for dressing a 7 month bump. The XS was ample, but it arrived with a small stain so I ended up wearing the S. I had to tape the chest area to be sure it did not show my bra, but other than that, it was a very comfortable dress. There is a nice slit in the dress which adds a sexy touch, just be careful when walking!

Love this dress. Wish I could buy it. Received lots of compliments. I also stood out in the crowd.
Was figure flattering to me! I'm 5' 4" and run anywhere between a 6-10 depending on the designer. Both the small and medium fit, but I opted for the medium just in case I needed room to breathe after eating. Wrong choice. Should have worn the small because the dress loosened up (stretched) and I was worried about the gaping neckline. Thank goodness for double sided tape! I was able to tape the dress to my bra, but I still felt self conscious. The length on the regular was fine too, with 2" strappy heels. I wore Spanx (the kind that fit over your thighs too), and they showed when the slits opened up walking outside (it was very windy). It was fine indoors, but I was conscious about the slit gaping when I walked around a lot.
