Elegant yet headturning dress
I rented the 6R and 4L. I wore the 6R but the 6L would have been perfect. I'm 5'9 and the 6R hit a bit short for 2 inch heels. Very formfitting

Everyone wanted to know where I got such an elegant dress.
The material was a little heavier then expected but it was breathable. Not too long since I'm only 5'4 without heels. I wear it to my annual mentoring gala and would definitely wear again. #MentorsMatters

Black tie Christmas party for my boss
I loved this dress. It was for a black tie event and this dress was SOOO comfortable and flattering. Will definitely rent it again. I could have worn it for the entire day and still been comfortable. Slit on the side dresses it up.

Great and comfortable dress
Fit comfortably and was elegant. I’m 5’5’’ 115lbs and 32c. I wore 3 in heels which was . Selecting dresses was tedious but it workedout. Last second my back up dress was unavailable they let me select a 3rd dress which was good bc I needed a size 2 just in case. Didnt need back ups this one was great. Lots of compliments!!

Great dress--very flattering (actually made me look like I have somewhat of a waist!!) and stretchy with a statement neckline. Dress runs on the short side, I'm 5'2" and wore 4" heels and it didn't quite hit the ground, but I do like my dresses on the longer side!

Classy, elegant, simply
I absolutely loved this dress. I wore it to a black-tie optional wedding, and it was perfect. It's simple, yet very elegant. The fabric has a lot of stretch, which makes a good fit easier to achieve. The V in the front wasn't low at all. I probably could have gotten away with just a strapless bra, but I wore a sticky bra from Victoria's Secret that's meant for low cut tops. This dress was easy to dance in and extremely comfortable. I would definitely rent again!

The dress was very comfortable and flattering.
Ordered 6L the regular would have been way too short. I liked this dress because I could wear a regular strapless bra with it. I would also recommend wearing some sort of spanx because it does hug the tummy/booty area.

This dress was AMAZING! The 8R fit like a glove (I normally wear a 12, sometimes even a 14 in dresses, but not in this one!). It was super stretchy (which is important for me with my lumps and bumps), and had a nice heavy fabric which covered any imperfections. I HIGHLY recommend this dress!

Amazingly comfortable and got so many compliments!
It fit like a glove but was comfortable and forgiving! I'm only 5'4 so I did have to wear 2-3 inch heels, otherwise it would've dragged. Otherwise it fit perfectly and fit true to size in all areas. The fabric is stretchy, so while I'm small chested, it would've looked fantastic on someone with more chest too.

The dress was so comfortable and flattering all night.
The fabric is a bit thicker than expected, which I appreciated given the cool night. It was stretchy, but also had enough body-con feel that I felt confident in my shape all night. The dress stood out in a subtle way and I would highly recommend.

My husband had a huge campaign celebration event at work and this dress was perfect. I've gained a lot of weight since having our daughter and I'm very insecure about my stomach and arms. Not only does this dress flatter those areas, it is classic and sleek and I got so many compliments. Very happy with the dress and the whole rent the runway process!

I rented this dress for a charity black tie Gala. I ended up wearing the 2R though I am generally in the size 4 range. I was worried about the length but this fit perfectly both in size and length. I had to go without a bar because my strapless would not lie smoothly enough and there were too many lines showing. Going braless made for a sleeker look. I was very pleased with this dress.

A close friends wedding
I wore this dress as a bridesmaid in a wedding. It fit very nice and I needed the stretch because I am 6 months postpartum from having twins and there is still weight there! I thought it was very classy and simple. Not a dress that makes a huge statement but could definitely be dressed up with some jewelry. Overall, I think anyone would be happy with how they looked in this.

Charity Mardi Gras Ball Perfection
Loved this dress! I'm 5'8" and wore 4 inch heels. The 12L size was absolutely perfect. The material is very stretchy and worked great with my hourglass frame. I wish the sleeves were slightly longer because they tended to shift but I do have larger arms. I loved the sheer material in the shoulders. This dress got a lot of compliments and although the material is soft and stretchy it totally concealed the smoothing foundation I was wearing underneath. I felt confident and sexy. I would buy this dress or rent again. Go with the long is you are real.

I loved wearing this dress! It was so comfortable and looked fantastic. Be sure you have a plunging strapless bra with smooth cups - mine had big seams that showed through the form-fitting material! (I just ended up wearing a regular bra with the straps tucked in.) The length was just right, too!

The dress was beautiful. I ordered a size 6 (which is my pants size) and ended up wearing the backup size 4. The dress still fitted a little big. I did not wear a bra with this dress and I wore maybe 5 inch heels. Overall I loved the dress. The fabric is a bit stretchy and it was a comfortable fit.

Perfect dress for growing bump!
Wore this to a winter black tie wedding. I wouldn't have picked it out myself from the website, a stylist helped me select it when I made an appointment in NYC. I was nervous about fit since I would be 6 months pregnant at the time. This dress fit perfectly! The sides are ruched and had room for a growing bump! I loved it and felt comfortable all night. I'm 5'2 and wore 3 inch heels and it was still very long that I was constantly stepping on it but I just held it up while I walked or danced.

This dress wasn't my first choice, but I really enjoyed it. It fits nicely and is flattering. I am about 5'5 and wore around 3-4 inch heels. The length was good. I like the sheerness to the top and also had no problem wearing a strapless bra. Simple yet different.

The dress was stunning and still had the tags on it! It was a little big which made the shoulder area fit differently than I would have liked, but it was still gorgeous! Luckily the dress was ruched so even though I am shorter than average, I was able to easily adjust the length.

Stylist Review
What a great take on a classic black dress. Love this dress for everyone because it is strapless bra friendly, has plenty of stretch (great for all body types including baby bump) and is totally timeless. There is also rouching at the waist, so it helps to hide anything extra you may be looking to conceal. The slit on the side gives just enough leg to complete the look, while the sheer portion on top gives a sexy yet modest illusion. The overall fit is very true to size, but I would consider sizing down for your backup due to the amount of stretch the dress has. Great for any bust size, as well! Pair with some classic sparkly accents and you are good to go!

Fit and flattered my baby bump perfectly
Stretchy and very forgiving material, despite weight gained with pregnancy only had to go up one size. I could have worn the 4 perfect around the bump a little tight in the butt.

The dress was very comfortable. The fabric was thick, soft and super easy to move in.
I was expecting to wear the 6L, but went with the 4L and probably could've even worn a 2L. The fabric is very stretchy. It even had enough give for me to reach in and put on deodorant. There is also more ruching on the sides than the RTR sample picture lets on. Also, the contrast between the sheer neckline and the rest of the dress wasn't as defined, so I kind of felt like I was wearing just a solid black dress at times, especially in the dim light. BUT. I felt elegant still, and the dress was very comfortable. A very good RTR first experience. Wore a bra with clear straps and you couldn't tell. I wore 3"-ish heels and the length was fine, but a little on the long side for me probably. Fabric would have definitely been dragging on the floor if I wore flats (I'm 5'5, 5'6ish.)

The dress actually got lost in the mail so I had to call RTR and get another dress. However, I'm glad it got lost because it didn't come the way I thought. I thought the top was more see through. It was very plain
