Not your average wedding guest dress

The lace was incredibly romantic and the fit was amazing. It was tight in all the right places. I felt really pretty in this dress and I hope RTR stocks more of these type of dresses. Oh, side note: double sided tape is a must!

I don't think I will ever top this dress

Excuse the scary iPhone eyes. This dress was the most beautiful one I have ever put on my body. I eyed it for weeks unsure of how it would fit before finally pulling the trigger and I could not have been happier when it arrived. I wore it to a military event and had no issues with the top being too revealing (when I first tried it on I was worried however everyone convinced me it was a non-issue and they were right). I ordered the 4 and the 6 and although the top to the 4 felt more snug and secure, the 6 fit and looked all around better so I went with that. It wasn't the most comfortable dress but I felt awesome about myself the entire night which definitely made up for it. If I hadn't taken so many photos and plastered them all over social media, I would definitely rent this again! ;)

Beautiful design & color, perfect length & classy

My size was not available & I had to wear one size larger. The dress ran large on me since it does not have any stretch whatsoever, so I had to use fashion tape on sleeves, back. etc. Be sure to only rent this dress in exactly your size. Got many compliments on the beauty of this dress

My favorite RTR dress! Great customer service.

My original dress had a tear and I was already out of state attending a wedding. RTR overnighted me a new, more expensive, dress that the stylist chose for me because the dress I had chose was out of stock. They charged me the lower, original dress price and were so nice about it. The new dress they sent me fit amazingly and ended up being my favorite RTR to date. The color is to die for and the fabric allows for some amount of stretching. You can tell the dress is expensive by the way it looks and feels. Only great things to say about the whole experience.

Showstopper!

This dress was gorgeous. I wore it to my friend's wedding. I usually wear a size 0 or small, I wore the size 2 because the 0 was a little too tight. I received numerous compliments throughout the night, women asking me where did I get this beautiful dress. I even tried to purchase it after the fact because I didn't want to send it back! Would definitely recommend and would definitely rent again in the future.

Perfect balance of sophistication and sexiness

I found the dress to fit true to size. It was more fitted in the waist on me and I used gel inserts to fill out the bust. You will need plenty of fashion tape to keep the top up.

Perfect cut

I have been wanting to wear this dress for a long time. It is as beautiful as I thought it would be. The cut is so flattering, especially if you don't have a lot in the chest area. It was perfect for a November wedding at the Grove Park Inn.

Everyone loved the dress! I felt great in it.

I felt like it ran pretty close to size but was a little tight on the hips. Other than that, I would also agree with other reviewers that you're going to need fashion tape for the cap sleeves. It was a great dress for a wedding and I was able to dance and everything!

Beautiful dress

I loved this dress and received compliments all night. Like other reviewers have said, it runs small, so sizing up is a must. The 6 fit my bottom half but was too small in the bust, so I wore the 8. Fashion tape kept the sleeves from falling off my shoulders, which I knew to have on hand thanks to the other reviewers.

Compliments All Night!

I am normally a size 0 or 2 and I was a little worried about the sizing of this dress given the other reviews. A 2 wasn't available, and so I took a chance and ordered a 0 and 4. The smaller size fit really well! It was a tad snug around the rib cage and hips, but nothing that looked ill-fitting. The color is a gorgeous teal, and I literally didn't stop receiving compliments all night. I loved this dress!

Fit perfect! Sooo many compliments. Made pharmacy graduation extra memorable!

Usually wear anywhere from 2-6, the 4 was not available but the 2 fit perfect. Snug, but in a good way. I still felt comfortable and confident. spanks not needed, it was double lined and the fabric was thick to hide ann texture flaws (lumps or bumps). The double sided tape that came with it was crucial to keep he sleeves up. It was a little low cut, found myself pulling it up at times. I did wear a strapless, but it never showed. I have a little love handle problem but this dress held me in at the right places and accentuated my better qualities. Very figure flattering dress. It's apparent it's been worn a few times. The sleeves were a little frayed. Color is much more teal in the sun light. Beautiful dress. I received so many compliments from family and perfect strangers. Surprisingly a lot of my male family members and friends commented on the quality and figure flattering qualities of the dress. Usually girls notice that kind of thing. Can't wait to rent the yellow!

Beautiful dress for an upscale outdoor wedding in Kennebunkport, Maine

I read the reviews that it ran small so I went with the size 6 and was happy with the fit, it was form fitting but I definitely had room to eat too! I had also read about double stick tape for the sleeves, so I was prepared for that and definitely needed a few pieces to keep the sleeves in place all night. I got SO many compliments and felt that it was a very unique look compared to other dresses guests had.

Great dress for my brothers wedding

Fit was true to size, a little loose on the back where it zipped. Also a little tight on the hips, had to wiggle into it a bit. Very comfortable and I received tons of compliments. Nice length for a wedding.

A million compliments !

This dress was amazing! I was so scared it would be too tight after reading reviews that it ran small but I had no issues. The top is more revealing than I expected and you 100% need to secure everything with tape. It was a great length which surprised me since I'm pretty short. There was a small rip in the meshy material that wasn't a huge deal but my friend noticed. I love this dress and got a million compliments!

Best Compliment: I belong on a magazine cover!

This dress is great!!! I have a VERY hourglass figure. I have 39" bust and hips with a 26" waist. I'll tell you that this dress fit like a glove! I'd be sure of your size and maybe order the next one up as the extra but it will be worth it. The shoulders are a bit tight when you lift your arms so don't expect to do jumping jacks in this dress, lol. All in all, this is my favorite of all the dresses I've rented (about 10 or so).

Hassle free experience and an amazing dress!

I have been eyeing this dress for months planning to wear it to a barmitzva. I actually rented it as backup, but at the last moment, my primary dress was unavailable so wearing this dress must have been fate. The dress definitely runs small. Do not flatter yourself thinking all of us are lying to ourselves about our size. I wear size 4 and I have slightly large hips. I couldn't even get into size 4. Size 6 fit perfectly. As others say, the cap sleeves slide, but two pieces of fashion tape and I didn't think about it even for a minute. I am athletic, but if you have (even a small) belly, wear control top hose, the dress is very snug. Overall a gorgeous dress. One small comment - this dress has been on RTR for a while and you can see slight signs of wear. Nothing another person would notice when you are wearing it, but it definitely doesn't feel brand new.

The Rent the Runway Team is amazing and so helpful!

This dress was Amazing!!! I got so many compliments on how gorgeous it looked!! I usually wear a 2, but ordered a 4 & 6 since I do have hips and I thought it looked snug on the bottom! The 4 fit, but the cap sleeves kept falling down and double sided tape was not working to keep them up! I think the 2 would have actually fit perfectly. The dress is so well made, so it's definitely true to size! I loved it!

Gorgeous, delicate, vivid colored lace.

Rented for my Engagement photos for a Vintage/Romantic feel. Loved the dress and the color. The cap sleeves adds to the romantic look. Definitely had to use fashion tape to make sure sleeves didn't continue falling down; was able to wear a strapless bra with this one.

Favorite rental by far

This was by far my favorite rental from RTR. If I had an extra $2,000 laying around I would totally buy this dress. This dress is exquisite. I am curvy so this dress felt like it was made for me, it fit everywhere on me perfectly. I'm a 34C and typically wear a size 6 in everything from jeans to dresses. This dress is the perfect blend of sexy and classy. Also, I must add that RTR customer service is unmatched! In a last minute pinch, my original dress became unavailable - and nothing to wear to my best friends wedding they had this available. I liked this one even better than my original pick!

Exquisite dress!!

I rented this dress for the At Home Try On and it is the most beautiful dress!! Like other reviewers have said, I found it to fit big in the top and small on the bottom. I cannot wait to rent it in yellow! The color of the dress is more teal than the pic of the model. The shoulder straps fit me fine, however, if you have a short distance between your shoulders and bust they will fall constantly without some tape.

All in the details!

The dress overall was absolutely beautiful-you can tell it's definitely an expensive piece! It hugged me the right way and I really loved it. The only issue is that the cap sleeves kept falling off my shoulders! So if you're petite, I would definitely have a backup dress as this drove me nuts! Other than that, loved it.

Exquisite

I rented this for a formal event and had women coming up to me all night long telling me that my dress was "stunning" and I was "the best dressed woman" there. I wore the size 2 which was definitely very curve hugging with little to no stretch. The 4 was unavailable otherwise I probably would have worn it instead, but it was still very flattering. Definitely an impeccably made dress that was surprisingly comfortable to wear and move in.

PERFECTION!

I originally ordered another dress for my bridal shower. RTR called me the day before it was scheduled to arrive and told me that one of my sizes was damaged and I could pick another dress to wear. I found this Reem Acra dress and fell in love!! This is the most beautiful dress I have EVER worn. I got so many wonderful compliments!! I felt like a true princess!!! I highly recommend this dress to anyone. Some other reviews say the sleeves fall down but as long as you sit up straight they stay put the entire day. I told everyone about RTR!!! :)

Compliments all night!

Wore this stunning dress to my cousin's wedding. Everyone said I had the best dress on...besides the bride of course! The color and lace was breathtaking. I am very small chested and small waist, the sleeves kept falling down and the chest area fell down as well standing up and sitting down. This is not good for small chested ladies. I had to wear my little cover up most of the night and couldn't show off this gorgeous dress. Stood up very straight for photos and was constantly pulling up the sleeves. Good for ladies with a bit of curve!

Beautiful dress

I loved this dress. I have rented several times and this is one of my favorites. The dress is true to size. I could have worn with the 6 or the 8 but I chose the 6 because it was a bit sexier when it was tight. I kind of regretted it though because I got a bit uncomfortable at dinner! The straps do sit right on the shoulders, and have a tendency to slip down, so it isn't the most comfortable dress I have ever worn, but it is one if the most beautiful.

The intricate lace and color are beautiful in person!

This dress SO pretty and feminine! Its very fitted and the fabric doesn't have any stretch, so if you're curvy in your hips or bust (like me) I'd definitely size up. You also have to either ware a strapless bra or no bra because of the of the neckline and sleeve but it was surprisingly supportive in that area. Can't wait to rent it again for a wedding in the Spring!

Beautiful dress, tight squeeze!

This dress is actually much deeper teal than the sample photo which I liked even better. The dress fits very snug yet extremely flattering! The biggest issue I had with this dress is the the top portion does not have very much give. By the end of the night I felt like the dress would not allow for a deep breath. I recommend sizing up! Though the fit was not the most comfortable, I had so many compliments throughout the night. Each and every experience with RTR has been simple and enjoyable. I would rent again... Just probably not this dress

Really beautiful dress. Loved wearing it! Both classy and sexy

This dress is beautiful. It does run small though. I'm a true size 0 and it fit me REALLY tight. A 2 wasn't available or I would've definitely sized up given the other reviews. I still wore it and it looked great but it was too tight for my taste. Size up!! Other than that it was great except that I did have to use fashion tape to keep the sleeves up and also in the chest area to keep the lace in place. Such a beautiful dress though! I would wear it again but definitely size up next time!

Endless compliments!

Very pretty dress but had to use about 8 pieces of fashion tape to get it to look right. The scalloped lace around the neckline was crumpled down in a sad manner- had to tape that up, When I taped the neckline in place, had to tape the cap sleeves to my shoulders because they would fall. The waist is quite tight, but made for a nice corset look. But not a comfortable dress

Elegant Lace Dress

I really loved the lace and color of this dress, perfect for a fall wedding. The neckline is different and pretty but not practical. I used fashion tape and still had a hard time keeping my bra in and the straps up. I am glad I rented it but probably would rent something more comfortable for alll night dancing at a wedding.

Absolutely stunning

This by far is the most beautiful dress I have rented from RTR. However, beauty is not without it's pains. It's not really meant for a petite girl, as the cap sleeves were constantly slipping off my shoulders and it's a bit longer than it should be, which makes it difficult to take regular size steps and get crazy on the dance floor. I would recommend using fashion tape and/or using the ribbon tie in the back to hold the sleeves together (I didn't, since it's not done up like that on the model, but a friend rented this dress for another event and she tied it). Would definitely recommend renting.

Never received so many compliments in my life!

The dress is a much darker shade of teal in person. It def fit well and will look great on curvy girls. I tend to always wear a size 4 in everything and the 6 fit better in every way. I have big boobs so I felt like I had to hold my shoulders back all night to keep everything in place. Plus the sleeves are capped and even with double sided tape I felt like they were all always falling off if I didn't sit up straight. The material is beautiful but you can tell its been worn a few times up close. Which is expected from Lace. All and all I loved the dress, I felt really great in it and people told me I looked great all night.

Beautiful color for a fall wedding - but fashion tape is a MUST

This dress definitely ran small... glad I opted to order the size 2 as a backup (I could not get the 0 on whatsoever!). Lace was not in mint condition but flaws were minor enough that I was not worried about anyone noticing. Color was a beautiful dark teal. If you have a smaller chest like me (B cup) there is no way you will be able to fill out the top. I had to secure the lace in the chest area and sleeves with fashion tape so as to not have my chest/ bra exposed. Overall I wound rent again.

Showstopper!

I had been lusting over this dress for months and was so so excited to receive it for a wedding this past weekend. I just about leapt into the arms of the UPS man! The only size available was a 6- my normal size- but I had read the reviews that said it runs small, so I was a little nervous. It turned out to be fine! I'm sure that I would have been able to relax a bit more in the 8, but the 6 fit like a glove. No room for a bra! The lace was intricate and delicate and the color was stunning! The only thing I will say is that this is not a low maintenance dress. I had to spend about 20 minutes attaching fashion tape to every free inch of strap (which were a bit stretched out) and neckline so the dress would stay put. I also had to adjust it a few times throughout the evening- if you wear undergarments, the materials will rub together and the dress will shift. But, if you're willing to put in the work, the results are worth it! One of the most gorgeous dresses I have ever worn!

This dress was beautiful! I felt very sexy yet comfortable.

I received so many complements and was stopped by another wedding guest to ask me where I got it. I ordered it last minute so I wasn't able to get a back up size and had to make the size 4 work. It fit well in the stomach and thighs but as other reviewers have mentioned, the shoulder straps didn't stay up. I also didn't quite fill out the chest area. It was nothing that fashion tape couldn't fix and and then nothing fell down the rest of the night! I would have liked to try on the size 2, it may have fit better, but it wasn't available.
