LOVE, love, love this dress!

Lily sheath dresses are definitely my go-to dresses when I don't have anything else to wear! Perfect for a summertime wedding! A tad tight in the hips, but I wouldn't have gone any larger in size.

Perfect for the beach!

I'm absolutely obsessed with this dress! The fabric was so perfect to wear over a bathing suit at the beach--heavy enough to keep warm in a damp swimsuit, light enough to keep cool in hot weather and the detailing reminded me of a ship's rope which was perfect for the beach! The fit is modest and appropriate for any event.

I absolutely loved wearing this dress for my sister's June bridal shower. It was perfect!

I ended up wearing my backup size (0) because I felt that the 2 was a little larger than I expected, even for a shift dress.

outstanding first experience!!

Sadly I was unable to wear this to the bachelorette party. However, I showed it off to my boyfriend & he fell in love with RTR! I was nervous about renting because i am 6'1 and I have the hips of J-Lo so dresses are always a hit or miss for me. It was snug around the tush area but that's something I am used to. It fit my body perfectly & I felt amazing when I wore it! I want to rent this dress again & actually be able to show it off next time (:

Great vacation dress!

I rented this dress for a Mexican, beach vacation. The navy and gold combo looked nice with a tan. I accesorized with gold drop earrings and flat metallic gold sandals. The dress was not too short on my 5'8 frame but still showed a little leg. I sized down because Lilly tends to run large. The size 4 was a perfect fit. The fabric was a heavier weight textured cotton that was very figure flattering. This Lilly dress could be worn by women of all ages. I loved it!

Perfect mix of Elegance, Class and Style for my Rehearsal Dinner

I had been eyeing up this dress for about a year, and have been obsessed with Lilly for years. When I got engaged, I knew- without a doubt- that I would be renting a Lilly for my Rehearsal Dinner. I couldn't have been thrilled with it. I am stil lreceiving compliments on how gorgeous my outfit was.

My fiance proposed to me while I was wearing this dress at my family reunion Memorial Day weekend!

For me, the fit was very true to size. I typically wear a 4, and the 4 was perfect (and not too short, which I was relieved about). The material is a little thicker than expected, so I wouldn't recommend this dress for warmer events, but as long as you've got AC, this dress is adorable, preppy, and lucky (I got a very important ring while wearing it)! ;)

Very comfortable!

I wore this dress to a rehearsal dinner. I got a lot of compliments!!! I got this as my 2nd dress, so I could only order one size, and the 4 was a little baggy. Don't know if the 2 would have fit, but the 4 was good enough! Very comfortable material!!!!

The perfect dress for tailgating!

This was my first rental and it was perfect for tailgating. I rented both a 4 and 6 and ended up wearing the 4 even though it was still big on me. I now know that Lilly Pulitzer shift dresses run large so it's better to go down a size. The dress even looked good with cowboy boots (which I wore due to the rain).

Perfect summer dress

Wore this for an outdoor summer rehearsal dinner, like all Lily dresses it runs small. I think what impressed me most was just the high quality feel of the dress and the materials, all while being super comfortable. It was the perfect dress and the only regret I had was when I dropped it off in the mail on the way home.

Perfection

I rented this dress for my sorority's bid day and I got nothing but compliments all day long! This dress boosted my confidence and I felt amazing in it. It is so flattering and the cut looks good on anyone. It was hard to send back.

I loved this dress and so did everyone else--I got so many compliments in it!

I loved this dress!!! This dress is beautiful and flattering and so comfortable to wear. I rented this for a date with my boyfriend and ended up wearing it to the mall the next day too, just because I liked it so much! The dress fit me perfectly, and the length was not too short and not too long--just right. Rent the Runway was so easy to work with--everything was packaged so nicely and it was so easy to return! I definitely look forward to renting from RTR again and recommend this dress to anyone!! You will love it just as much as I did!

My experience with RTR was great. My dresses arrived on time and were in perfect condition!

I fell in love with this dress as soon as I saw it on RTR. It was a bit short but I am 5'7". It fit everywhere else perfectly. I received so many compliments on it too.

Wore this to the National Cathedral in D.C. for Easter. It was PERFECT! I had complete strangers stop me after the service to tell me what a beautifully cut dress this was. Highly recommend! Love Lilly!

I loved having such a perfect outfit for my little brother's college graduation!

This dress is so perfect-classy and adorable! I loved it! My only issue was that I have narrow hips, but bigger boobs, so I probably could have gone down a size (to a 2) for the waist/hip area, but needed a 4 for my upper body, so definitely order 2 sizes if you are unsure.

Great navy blue dress, beautiful quality.

Wore it for my outdoor bridal shower and it was great. I usually wear a 0 and this 0 was a little large on me. Because it's a sheath dress having it be a little big didn't look obvious. I got a ton of compliments on it, the quality was great! Super easy to order and return with RTR.

Perfect dress for my grad school graduation!

I was surprised that the detail was more sparkly gold rather than matte nude. Otherwise, the dress fit great lengthwise (I paired with nude wedges), zipped right up and fit snug with a strapless bra. No complaints here; Renting a Lilly is always a win-win!

Great for any occasion!

I ended up ordering a 2 and 4 in this dress. Unfortunately, I got an email from RTR that the 2 had been damaged, so they sent a 2 in another, similar style! I was so happy about that!! The 4 ended up fitting (but so did the 2 in the other style. It was hard to choose which to wear!) and I got lots of compliments on it. I wore this to my friend's bridal shower and it really fit the occasion, but you could literally wear this anywhere.

Great dress! I only wish I could use RTR everyday!

My friend, Elisabeth, recommended RTR for an upcoming brunch and I was skeptical at first but willing to give it a try. When the box arrived it felt like Christmas! The dress was presented beautifully and the fit kit was a fantastic bonus! There were only a couple reasons I gave this dress 4 stars instead of 5. It was more like 4 1/2 stars. The dress itself was well constructed although the fabric looked like it has been dry cleaned more than a few times. The fit was very good but not quite perfect. I got a 2 for my back up size but ended up wearing the 4. The 2 fit perfectly around my ribcage and bust (which is more like a 30 around instead of a 32) but I needed the 4 for my hips. If it were my own dress I would have purchased a size 4 and had the bodice taken in a bit but truthfully no one noticed and it wasn't a big deal. I got lots of compliments and the dress looked amazing in photos. One friend even said I looked like a mini- Michelle Obama! Haha! I've already recommended RTR to friends and I can't wait to use RTR again...what a fun experience!

The ultimate Easter dress.

Wore this for Easter Sunday; it was perfectly springy, appropriate for an indoor-outdoor family party and I scored tons of compliments. The fabric doesn't have much stretch and it's REALLY thick, so if you're between sizes, order both the smaller & the larger. I have no boobies so there were no issues in the chest, but some larger-busted lovelies may have some snugness there.

Knowing that I didn't have to run around like a crazy person trying to find a dress. The perfect dress was sent straight to my door, no stress and no searching!

I wore this dress to my brother's rehearsal dinner and it was a BIG TIME hit. I got a ton of compliments and it was dressy enough that I felt a little fancy but casual enough that I wasn't uncomfortable. I ordered the 0 and it fit really well, remember that it's a shift dress so it's not supposed to be tight. I'm super short and it actually didn't hit me at an awkward length like most dresses ( that are supposed to be minis do) it was a couple inches above the knee. LOVED IT

I think this dress is very preppy.

I ordered this dress to wear on vacation, but they were unable to ship it due to availability issues. RTR was great to work with to select a replacement dress that would fit my needs. I would rent this dress in the future since the photos that others have posted look so nice.

This dress is perfect for a semi-formal event at a beach!

I wore this to a rehearsal dinner at a beach wedding and it was perfect. I just had a baby, so I was a little worried about a shift, but this dress fit me fabulously! The fabric is thick enough to be forgiving to my just-had-a-baby belly and made me look slim and put together. The jacquard fabric made it a little more formal and the touch of gold in the thread made it perfect to pair with some gold sandals. Loved it and my husband was WOWED. Everyone gave me compliments.

detailing was gorgeous

i choose this dress for a baptism. wanted to look stylish, but church appropriate as well. the detailing on this dress was beautiful. i guess i didn't really read the description of the embroidery, but i thought it was just going to be creamed colored, but there was gold threading so that was an extra bonus. just gorgeous. wore it with nude colored heals. wish i could have this dress in my regular wardrobe. i would definitely wear this again.

The server said, "you are SO fashion"

This deep navy dress has golden trim and is exactly the right length for me. It fits nicely and looked great for the final night cruise dinner. The server, an adorable young man, enjoyed seeing my "fashion" every night - and 3 of the nights were Runway Rentals!
