Saved Prom Night! Should’ve Started Here First!
After a total fail with a last-minute Amazon dress, Rent the Runway came in clutch for my daughter’s high school prom. We were in a panic with only days to go, and RTR delivered—literally and figuratively. The gown was absolutely stunning: elegant, comfortable, and looked even better in person than online. The quality was top-notch and the floral detail made it perfect for a spring prom. It fit like a dream and made her feel so confident and beautiful.

Fell in love with this dress from the color to the hydrangeas for a garden/ Derby party! It was perfect! The size was perfect and true to size (I wore a 6). The lace up back is beautiful and helped to make the fit more customizable. I received so many compliments. I felt like the belle of the ball!

Perfect for formal wedding!
I wore this for a formal wedding in Hawaii where the dress code specified wearing flowers and it was perfect! I felt like a million bucks and received so many compliments! I’m 5’1 and it was the perfect length with my heels!

Beautiful spring dress
I'm generally an 8 or 10, I wore the 8. The corset top is so useful because you can really make it adjust to your size exactly. I loved the dress, but was surprised that it was floor length on me (I thought it would be tea length but I guess I'm not. 5'9" model in heels 🤣). It was still beautiful and worked great for a formal spring wedding.

I rented this dress for an evening garden party. It was perfect. I usually avoid strapless dresses due to my small frame and larger bust. Not with this dress! The corset top made it easy to fit on top but give me security in knowing that it wouldn’t slide down. The size 2 length worked with 3” platform heels. I felt like Cinderella. Rent this dress!

Really cute dress that fits true to size! It has a small zipper up to the lower back, and from there the corset-style top keeps everything secure while still being comfortable. It held me in perfectly and let me dance all night without any issues. I got so many compliments throughout the evening—definitely a winner!

Summer Garden, Semi-Formal Wedding - Check!
I received so many compliments on this dress! It was the perfect garden wedding guest dress! The 16 was the only size available, but with the corset tie in the back I was able to make the dress fit perfectly! I added double-sided sticky breast cutlets to help lift and hold my breasts up so there was no sagging. Paired with some cute bow-tie satin pink heels - adorbs!

Lovely!
I looked at the size guide on the Nissa website, and for my measurements, I should have ordered an 8. But based on reviews and pictures, I chose to get a 4 & 6. Glad I did! The six would have fit well if I had a bigger bust. The four was secure and comfortable all night!

Fun and floral
I got a lot of compliments on this dress! The fabric is heavier than I realized so it’s relatively formal - I was on the fancier side for the outdoor summer wedding I went to. Contrary to what others said, I actually thought this ran pretty true to size, and if anything a little large for me in the chest especially (I wear 34C). Hem unfortunately came out while I was wearing it but I assume that will be fixed by the time you rent it.

RTR was unable to provide my primary size (4) but the corset style of this dress made the size 6 wearable. The fabric is beautiful… It's more silky than it appears in the photos. Gorgeous colors. Perfect wedding guest dress! Sooo many compliments.

Beautiful but runs small
5’6” 135 and this is a 10. It was the only size available and I thought it was so beautiful I rented it anyway thinking maybe since it has an adjustable corset I could make it work. But it honestly fit perfectly even though I don’t usually wear a 10. I got so many compliments!

FABULOUS!
This dress is FAB. I am wearing a size 2, & had to pull the corset tighter because it is strapless. I would say it is true to size, depending on your chest size. The rest of the dress is flowy. Have never received more compliments in an outfit!

Like a princess!
First - I ALWAYS wear a bra with everything but this is corset-like and I didn’t need to. And it really looked great! Second - it’s really long! It’s fine on me and will be great for tall people, but at 5’7” I wouldn’t want it any longer.

Beautiful dress for someone with less chest
The Pros: It’s a beautiful dress! The fabric is soft and the skirt made me feel like a princess! I wore it to a Steeple Chase race where it was 80° and the dress breathed perfectly. The Cons: Unfortunately as someone who’s breast are rather heavy this dress was a struggle. I sized down in hopes that tying tighter would help but I spent most of the day struggling to keep the dress up over the girls and my nips are still visible in pictures 😳 Overall: this is the perfect dress for someone who’s lighter on top or just more perky than me!

Ending up not wearing this due to staying home from the event but it is a GORGEOUS dress!!! Absolutely beautiful and fit great due to the corset back. Did not need a bra. Will look for this again if I have a formal event to attend. This was for a black tie wedding.

Great choice for summer events
This was an AMAZING dress! I got so many compliments on it! The one thing I’ll say is you need someone to help you with tying the back to help it stay on but once it’s tied - it’s great! It was also super comfortable as well. Highly recommend for summer events!

Perfect for spring wedding
Got tons of compliments on this dress! It fit true to size, and I didn't need to wear a bra since the corseting in the top was supportive enough on its own (and surprisingly comfortable). It does lace up the back so make sure you have someone to help you with those laces unless you're quite flexible.

The dress was so fun and I received lots of compliments wearing it, which was a confidence booster! The dress stayed up (despite not having straps). One thing to note: definitely requires two people to get in it! Very flattering.

It reminded me of the 50's with the corset twist. It is very heavy material and I would say pretty formal. Really well made. TTS

Beautiful fabric but best if your girls don’t need support
You’ll need either a back free bra solution or chest that does not require any lift for this to be flattering as boning in bodice is not enough to lift on its own.
