Great fit and color!

Overall the dress was very nice. The fit and color are unique. The dress was also pretty comfortable. I typically wear a six and the 8 was still tight. I would have worn a 10 if I had the option.

Stunning color

I ended up not wearing this as it was my back up style and i loved my first choice, but i wish i could have kept this for another event. Color was beautiful, it fit very snug (and im very petite). I hope to rent this again.

This was the perfect dress. Beautiful and great quality. So many compliments!

This definitely fit small. I typically wear a size 6 and ordered a 12 based on previous comments. I am really glad that I ordered this larger size. It fit almost perfectly and I felt great all night in it.

Did not receive this dress

I never received the original Likely "Red Carolyn Dress" I ordered. I had to go to the RTR store to get my dress in time but ended picking this gorgeous black dress. Size 0 fit true to size and had a classic look. Loved wearing it and everything worked out great. Frustrated this is the 2nd time this happened and there was no service recovery for me never getting my order, spending almost an hour on hold, and then needing to rush to the RTR store to get a dress. Customer service should have been better.

So sexy

Didn’t wear it because it was too small. Go a size up for sure. The other dress I wore was also a likely dress in the same size 2. This one was hard to zip up and you could see my pelvic bone, so I couldn’t wear it🤣. Very pretty dress though.

Fits like a glove!

I rented this dress once before in a size 2 (my normal size) and it was wayyyy too small. I rented again in a size 4 and fit great. Such a flattering and sexy dress! Definitely suggest sizing up

Beautiful, but snug!

The dress is gorgeous and I got a lot of compliments! It isn't a "true red" in person but photographs more red than it is to the eye. I rented sizes 4 with a backup size of 2. The difference between the dress sizes are very marginal! The fit around the bust was the biggest difference. The fit around the waist and hips were very very similar between the two sizes. I typically wear a size 2 in other dresses - so if you're a true 4, definitely size up!

This dress just felt sexy, period!

It fits tight, but the material is thick which is great - it's good quality. BE WARE: going to the bathroom will not be easy.... I struggled a lot because like the other reviews say: it's the tightest around the waist and hips. That's the only down side, plan for that!

Loved it! Perfect for a wedding

This dress is beautiful! I rented this for a wedding and it was perfect! As other users have mentioned, it runs small and is snug, so sizing up may be good idea. I'm small-chested so I was still able to wear a strapless bra with this dress, but I think you could get away with no bra as well. Overall, I loved it and felt great in it and would absolutely rent it again!

Beautiful dress!

I'm typically between a 2 and a 4, so I ordered this dress 2 sizes larger, as suggested. It does run small, but I wish I would have ordered the 4! I didn't quite fill out the top, but didn't have much wiggle room in the waste. The dress was a great material, and looked good all night!

Gorgeous and classy!

I love this dress, so comfortable but sexy and I got so many compliments all night. I had to size up because of the "girls" and I needed a friend to zip me up completely once I got to the party but I felt amazing and wish I could just keep it!! It comes in black too so it's definitely on my favorites list!! I didn't have to wear a bra and the fabric is thick so I wasn't worried about showing too much.

Favorite dress I've ever worn!

Absolutely perfect for a formal wedding. Received compliments all night! The color is stunning and the fit couldn't have been better. I did have to wear a strapless bra with it but it was snug and stayed in place all night. Comfortable for dancing too. Will definitely be renting this dress again!

Got so many compliments on this dress!

The size of this dress is perfect. It is fitted and sexy but not too in your face. The color is a gorgeous cranberry color which is perfect for a winter wedding.

Lovely for Summer and Fall

This dress was beautiful! I am normally a 0-2 in dresses. After reading all the reviews I ordered a 6. (4 wasn't available). The 6 fit like a glove but was a little loose in the bust. I'm a 32C. The color is a gorgeous dark cranberry. No stretch in this dress but I could sit and walk comfortably. I'm 5'8 and it hit right at my knee. You do need to zip the dress down to use the bathroom. That was the only flaw it had. I would definitely rent again!

Perfect dress for a summer wedding

I loved this dress and received so many compliments all night! A few things to note - I'm 5'2" and 125 pounds and definitely had to size up. I normally fit into a 4 (sometimes 2), but I went up to a 6 in this and could have maybe gone to an 8. It fits snug and the butt doesn't have much give. The color is also more fuchsia than the red pictured, but I loved the color and neckline. Would definitely rent again!

Sexy but classy

I loved the dress! After reading all reviews I ordered size 6 and 8, normally wearing 4/6. Size 6 worked out perfectly! It was right on the bottom but I was able to walk without any problems, though going up the stairs was tricky yet manageable. Hugging curves, this dress will boost your confidence! Technically I wouldn't have to wear spanx with it but decided to do it last minute just in case. Taking it off in the bathroom is not a big deal when you receive so many compliments! My boyfriend loved it! Definitely recommend, would rent it again!

Looked stunning, yet respectful, for a courthouse wedding.

Fit: I'm 5 ft nothing, 105 lbs. Pretty athletic, 32A. Could barely breathe in the 0. I was afraid if I did anything other than stand, I would tear it. The 2 was perfect, and I was infinitely grateful that I had been able to order the back-up size for free. Pros: The dress looks exactly like the picture. Form fitting, sleek, hugs even a lack of figure. I got compliments all day on the design of the dress. Cons: Wow, does this run small. The 0 was extremely tight, and unless you are very, very, very slim, I suggest ordering up a size. Reference earlier this paragraph for my measurements and how I could barely breathe, yet alone zip up, the size 0. However, the 2 was perfect! Don't be afraid to order this dress. It runs hella small so just be ready to order up a size, and prepare to feel extremely good in what you're wearing.

Perfect for Harry Potter themed engagement party

This is my #1 favorite RTR dress that I've rented so far! I rented it for my engagement party and it worked out perfectly. I have no complaints whatsoever- color, fit, length- all great. Not to mention it was very comfortable. I was able to wear a normal strapless bra with no issues. I received compliments all night. I will 100% rent this beauty again!

Beautiful fit!

Beautiful fit! Cons: it was a little complicated to get in the car and had to unzip the dress to use the bathroom, but I didn't mind. The dress is too pretty to care. Pros: Nice winter color and loved the fit. I am even currently 10 weeks pregnant and was able to wear size 2. I tried size 4 but was too big on the hip area. Rent it! You wont regret it.

Great party dress!

This was a comfortable Bridesmaids dress for a country wedding. The fabric is thick which made it nice for winter. Doesnt show flaws....however it is super small!!!!! I am normally a 2 (sometimes zero) and the 6 was tight on the bottom. I would have tried an 8 but based on the reviews i only ordered a 4.6. Other than that its comfortable to wear for a long time, easy to get on by yourself and an awesome Dresss.

Beautiful tight fitting red dress- perfect for a fall event!

I loved this dress- the color was perfect for fall and a good choice for a wedding. The reviews are right- definitely have to go up in size! I ended up wearing 2 sizes up and that was still very form fitting (as can be seen in the picture). Overall though, it was a beautiful choice when the correct size was chosen.

The dress was perfect and exactly what I wanted to wear for semi-formal occasion.

The dress fits true to size. I am 5'2" and 108 lbs and I wore a size 0. It is definitely form-fitting but was not too tight to walk or dance in! It was a dark magenta color which was exactly what I wanted. It was my first time using Rent the Runway and I was a little nervous. However, it was a great experience and I will definitely be using it for future occasions!

Loved this dress. It does run small - I usually wear a 4 but wore a 6. The 4 was more form fitting but was difficult to zipper the 6 gave more room; making it more flattering.

Curvy and tight, but could still dance the night away!

I'm curvy so I was definitely nervous seeing all these beautiful pictures of these petite/size 0 girls wearing a size 6 in this dress but I decided to go for it anyways. The dress was beautiful. I got so many compliments and it hugged all the right areas without being too tight. Highly recommend but definitely size up as high as you can.

Loved this dress!

Fit was definitely on the small side as I normally wear a 0. However, very high quality material and beautiful dress. The fit in the legs makes it difficult to move totally freely- like getting into the car was a challenge, haha. But it earned me lots of compliments and I felt like a million bucks. I'd rent again! Color is great for a Fall or Winter event.

Loved the dress. Got many compliments.

I was worried that dress would be too long because I'm only five feet but it was fine. It was difficult to use the bathroom as I had to unzip dress and bring someone with me to zip up again. Otherwise no complaints.

Gorgeous dress, very formfitting!

I rented this dress for a wedding at a vineyard. I LOVED it! Great color, sexy and elegant at the same time. It does run quite small. I ordered the 0 and the 2 and ended up going with the 0 because the top fit better. The material is slightly stretchy, but doesn't give very much. Still would highly recommend this dress if you want to show off your assets!
