Absolutely perfect hostess dress!

This dress is a perfect classic. Completely feminine, fabulous shape, comfortable, and pockets!! I LOVE this dress and would absolutely recommend it. I'm a 34 C and the top was a touch snug around the top but not a big deal. Only the 0 was available and it was well worth it

I felt like a radiant bride at my Bridal Shower

This dress was a total hit at my bridal shower! I felt like an adorable Stepford Wife ;) because I have larger breasts (32DDD at Victoria's Secret) I wore the size 4 but because I have a tiny everything-else I did have to belt it. I was sad I didn't receive the Orange belt with my order but the gold belt I paired with it ended up working out beautifully! I had just gotten over a TERRIBLE week this dress brought me back to feeling bridal!!! Thank you RTR!!

This dress is more fun in person than online!

I usually wear a size 6 in a dress of this style, but this 6 is tighter than I would like. Thankfully, it's thick enough to go bra-less, but I would have been more comfortable in an 8. I'm wearing it for my birthday dinner this weekend, so I'll update if I have any additional thoughts after wearing it for the night!

The hidden pockets are fantastic!

I rented the 2 and 4, and went to pick them up the day before the event at the Flatiron location. I tried both dresses on in the store, and they were both too big around the bust. The store employees were fantastic and same-day shipped a smaller size to the store and I was able to pick it up later in the day. The dress was fun, I felt great, and I received a ton of compliments. Will definitely RTR again!

Great fit! Beautiful color, very flattering!

Nice full bottom, perfect sliimming waist and with a full bust it was still a perfect fit up top, I could have gotten away without a bra, but it's a comfort thing. Only thing is that the belt does not have holes so it doesn't stay closed; I had to use a pin to keep it nice and tight. I wish I could keep it!

Comfortable and fun!

I actually ordered this in a 2 and 4, as people said it fits true to size and I'm usually a 2, but it was too big! Thankfully, I was able to get a 0 in time for the weekend. The 0 fit perfectly on my waist (about 26 in) and the top was snug but comfortable (I'm a 32C). The 2 was too large on top and kept falling down, so I would recommend the 0 for a B cup and the 2 for C and up. Very comfortable and fun to dance in!

Orange and fantastic!

Rented this dress for a charity fundraiser at the Indianapolis Zoo. The theme was "Rock the Orange" in celebration of the new International Orangutan Center, so this dress was optimal for the occasion. Dress arrived early, fit great, and was super comfy. The zipper was a little tight, so needed assistance to get it zipped up, but once on, it felt great. I am often a bit reticent about strapless gowns and dresses as I always feel like I'm pulling them up to keep them in place, but this one moved very little and kept the girls in place, no bra needed. I was a little sad to pack this dress up as I enjoyed it very much - I'd rent it again in a heartbeat!!

Flirty, fun, fabulous!

The color of this dress is stunning. The fabric/weight was perfect for weather transitioning from Winter to Spring. As stated by others, the band at the very top of this dress fits snug... I'm between a 34 B and 34 C cup and struggled to get it buttoned. The belt wasn't as troublesome but I did wish there was a way to fasten it more security.

I Want To Buy This Dress!

This was a surprise when I tried it own! I LOVE this dress more than any dress I've rented so far! People couldn't stop telling me how awesome I looked! Note that the belt is a headache but I had some velcro sticky things and added to keep it in place! The top does run small and tight but it did stretch out after a few minutes of wearing and was quite comfortable after that. Pretty orange color. Will be renting again soon!

I felt 50s glamorous and loved the color!

I'm a 6 fairly consistently. The 6 fit everywhere except for the bust, so I moved up a size. Initially it fit perfectly, but quickly loosened up– I spent most of the day pulling up my dress and adjusting the belt. I wish I had just worn the 6 which would have fit like a glove (in a good way). Really comfortable and flattering, great for a garden party or summer event! (I wore it to my bridal shower).

Wore the dress for a beach wedding in Mexico. The color, style and fit were super flattering.

Loved, loved loved this dress and it was an incredibly great first experience with Rent the Runway. I had a wedding date in Cancun and wanted to wear a piece that stood out, but not in a revealing, exhibitionist way. This dress was long enough to be classy, with the right amount of swoosh for great dancing at the reception and the color is to DIE for. The picture, taken right at sunset in Isla Mujera, says it all. My only gripe is the chest section - it was bunchy. While it stood up well when standing, it crumbled on itself whenever I sat down, and while I'm small-chested, I'm not THAT small-chested for a size 0/2. Overall, great dress, great experience. Thanks Rent the Runway!

Mad Men madness

Dress fits as described. Debated for a while between the zero and two but the two had a little more room in the bust. Perfect dress for the Mad Men themed birthday party I attended. Very comfortable dress and I didn't find mysel doing the strapless dress pull-up all night. Sat in place well. Fun, flirty and great color.

So fun, wish I could find a place to buy it!

So fun! Great thick kind of retro fabric, good for any season. I wore this on my birthday and I didn't want to give it back. One of my top rentals of all time. 4 was all that was available and it fit true to size. Would be great for a daytime wedding at any time of year, or evening wedding in summer!

A Total Hit!

This dress was a hit at a summer wedding I attended! It was perfect for me - the strapless neckline worked just fine up top, and with the wide, flowing skirt I didn't feel constricted at all on bottom (as I'm curvy), and danced the night away. The pockets were definitely a plus, no need to bring a purse. My boyfriend loved it, too. I'm still getting compliments on it, 2 months later!

I've wanted this dress since last year, and finally my wish came true! it was everything I wanted and more :) I love RTR!!!!

I've been eye-ing this dress ever since I joined RTR last year. I was skeptical for a while because no one reviewed it or put up pictures, but finally I took the plunge and rented it for my boyfriends brothers wedding. The colors of the wedding were orange and blue for our college colors so the dress went perfectly! I got compliments all night long it was amazing! The material is great, stayed up all night AND dancing was a blast! The skirt is full so when you dance it swings all night long. Loved it so much :)

Amazing, colorful, perfect girly dress!

Loved this dress. Not too red- an interesting color. Beautiful material and the belt looked great even though I usually don't like belts with dresses. Paired it with a Amrita Singh necklace which was perfect and contrasting colors. Wore this to a summer wedding and adored it!

Show stopper

This dress is stunning and I absolutely love it! I usually wear a size 4, but the size 2 fit me much better. This dress fits well with a smaller bust, which is hard to find with this style of dress. The color was vibrant, but not over the top. Everything about this dress was fabulous from the fabric to the fit. I have never before received so many compliments on a dress.

Being hugged by Lionel while wearing this beautiful dress!

I recently wore this dress to a July outdoor wedding, in Maine. The Milly was perfect because I wanted something fun and colorful. It is both! I am pretty much a solid size 4 in both dresses and pants so I didnt even bother ordering a second size. That being said, I suggest ordering one size up just to be safe. The dress fit perfectly but it was its snuggest on me across the back, where it buttons up. Everyone loved it!

Loved the Color!

This is a great summer dress, I absolutely loved the orange color! This dress is extremely fitted in the bust and waist, so I would recommend sizing up if you are larger chested. The belt was adjustable which was great. I loved that there was a ton of room in the skirt, it made moving around really easy. This dress hit at my knee, so it may be more tea-length if you on the shorter side.

I wore the dress to see "The Newsies" in New York, and was pulled aside at the end by a couple girls to tell me that they couldn't take their eyes off my dress. What a great reaction!

I wore this dress to a Broadway show, and got SO many compliments. It runs true to size, but the belt that comes with it has no holes, so it does not cinch in you waist at all. However, it fit perfectly, and I LOVE the button detail on the back.

This dress was perfect for a late summer wedding!

The fit is a bit tight in the bust, but not too far off from normal for the size. It also stretches out a bit as you wear it. The dress is great, but the belt is unwearable. I think I got the wrong size with my dress, but aside from that there is no way to secure it closed. I ended up just ditching it, since I couldn't even pin it closed because the fabric is so thick. The dress was fine without it though, so as long as you either have an alternate belt handy or can wear without, it's great!

I wore this for a rehearsal dinner for a wedding my husband was in. I loved it for a warm evening. I wish we would have been dance so I could twirl in it more. It's very flattering. You could totally wear this to a buffet and over indulge.

This dress was great, but picked a different one I rented because it just wasn't fancy enough.

The fit was wonderful, a very cute dress! The couple minutes I had it on, the belt was definitely slipping so you'd have to pin it. The top is very well fitted, would never have to be concerned about pulling it up. I think it would be a bit too much fabric for a hot summer day - heavy fabric.

The dress is great and pretty forgiving but runs a bit small on top

Generally true to size, but the very top of the dress is small. I usually wear a 4-6, and while the 6 otherwise fit me, the top wouldn't button, so I ended up wearing an 8. There's a bit of boning in the bust. The dress is more of an orange-red than a true red.

My dress showed up exactly when it should have.

Wore this dress to a holiday work party. Fit very small in the bust but I am an A cup so it worked out. Had a hard time zipping it up and buttoning on my own but once I got it the dress fit great and didn't move all night. If you have a bigger bust I would recommend a size up. Color and fabric are wonderful, a very beautiful, fun dress.

Perfect for a summer wedding!

I loved this dress! The only issues I had with it was having to use tape to hold up the front and back...and the belt sort of stayed tight with tape, but I was messing with it all night. Not the most comfortable, but overall I was happy with it.

Gorgeous, stand-out color!

This dress definitely worked well for a somewhat-chilly mid-April wedding in Wisconsin. The fabric has many layers so it kept me really warm even though it is strapless. The color is gorgeous and vibrant and the size 6 fit me perfectly. (I usually wear a 6 or medium in dresses and a 6 or 8 in pants.) The thick fabric was also nice because it allowed me to go bra-less (though larger-chested girls may still want to wear a bra). The belt is a nice accent, but it kept slipping open, almost completely coming un-done! There are no holes to keep it fastened, so even though it wasn't skin-tight or anything, it still kept trying to slip open. So, I had to constantly be aware of it and fix it on occasion throughout the night. Other than that one issue, this dress was a fantastic rental!

Compliments all day long. Perfect race dress

The button popped. I am larger chested and thought I could pull it off. I didn't want to have to wear the 8 and keep tugging it up. Well I should've done that, bc not 10 in the races the button popped after someone hugged me. So I ended up tugging at it all day long regardless.

Fun, festive dress! Felt like a superstar. Great for dancing.

This dress is great. The material is heavier than you might expect--really thick and cottony. I loved the length--about knee-length on me--and the skirt was big and swirly, great for dancing. I thought the waistline was very flattering as well. The color is also amazing and highly saturated, so the dress gets a lot of attention. I got compliments all night! Now for the not-so-great features: As other girls have mentioned, the belt is a little annoying because there is no clasp, so I had to keep tightening it all night. (Maybe some double sided tape could cure this?) I also found myself hitching it up fairly often (a problem I always have and the fatal flaw of most strapless dresses). Def to be worn with a strapless bra. All in all, I'd wear it again, and it was the perfect thing for the event I attended (ranch wedding in New Mexico.)

Best Derby Dress!

I rented this for a Kentucky Derby party and felt like I was actually at the Derby. I usually rent the 2 and the 4, but this time I went with the 4 and the 6 (I wasn't feeling too toned), but I wish I had gone with the 2 and 4. I wore the 4, and it fit but was slightly loose in the waist and bust. I have a small chest and found myself pulling it up throughout the day. The belt definitely tied the dress together, but it doesn't have holes and the needed to be tightened as I moved. My only other complaint is that the dress has small loops inside on the chest (to hang it?), with my constant adjusting of the top, they would keep popping out and are visible in pictures. It was a cool day with cloud,s and the thicker material was perfect. I wore it for 8 hours, and it was comfortable all day.

It was the dress I wore my rehearsal dinner, and I loved being told how tiny it made my waist look!

I rented this dress for my summer wedding - i wore it to my rehearsal dinner. The dress fit true to size--i dont have much of a waist but this helped accentuate what waist I have, and the length was cute and appropriate. The 2 problems were the zipper was very hard to zip - it fit but got caught on the fabric. and the dress seemed to stretch out throughout the night--by the end of the night I had to keep lifting it up. Overall, good dress, I received a ton of compliments and I loved the color.

Ran small so I had to go up a size which meant I spent lots of time tugging up the bodice. Belt doesn't stay snug either.
