I wore this dress to a 1920's theme awards dinner and got many compliments!
The dress fit perfectly and the beading was beautiful. There were some small areas where the beading had fallen off, but they were not noticeable. The entire experience was great. I will definitely be using RTR again!

Such a great dress! I got lots of compliments. The overall consensus is this dress is amazing!
This was the perfect dress for my 1920's themed bachelorette party at a "speak-easy" in San Francisco! The fit is loose but it's the perfect proportion with just the right amount of "ease". Felt sexy and classy with out it being skin tight. It hugs/shapes the right areas. I'm usually a 2 or 4 on top and a 4 or 6 on bottom.

The bead work on this dress is absolutely beautiful
The dress size definitely runs big. I usually fit a 10, but I ordered the 8 b/c the 10 wasn't available for my event. Thank God it fit! I felt like a million dollars in this dress and wish I could own it. My friend is wearing a Monique Lhuillier from RTR too! It was so easy to rent and return. I attend about 6 or 8 fundraisers a year, so RTR is a great service for me.

I rented this dress for a formal charity benefit where Crosby, Still & Nash performed.
This was probably my favorite RTR rental to date. Not only was I comfortable all night but I received compliments all night from both men and women (of all ages) throughout the night.

Stunning, unique, comfortable dress!
I am usually a 6 in dresses, but the 4 fit perfectly. I loved this dress, and received tons of compliments. I wore it to my cousin's evening wedding. The best part was the comfort. While it looked great, it did not restrict in any way, nor did it look like a tent. Easy to dance in, and totally fine after eating a meal! I would rent this one again.

Great dress for a Gatsby-themed party
I wore this dress for a daytime event with a Great Gatsby theme and it was perfect - the dress has a 1920s feel without being a costume. I received a lot of compliments on the dress, too. I thought I would want to size down based on other reviewer's comments, but I actually might have preferred a size up since the style in the '20s was a more boxy shape. I am bigger in the booty and the dress was a little more fitted in that area than I expected. But it wasn't inappropriate and I thought the dress was comfortable to wear all day. Although white, the dress was well lined and not at all see-through. Some of the beading was a little frayed, but I don't think it was noticeable at all.

Love, love, love!
Sparkles get me every time, and this even passed my expectations. The detailing on the dress is exquisite. Then fabric is so soft. And it is very well lined. It is a shift dress, so it is not tight at all which I like. It does run a little big. I am normally a 8, but I got it in a 6 after reading other reviews. I wore it for my anniversary dinner. It is for sure for fancier occasions, but I wouldn't judge if you wanted something sparkly for something more casual :) Would rent again and again.

Heavy beaded dress but very high quality and flattering cut. Hangs straight from shoulder, no hugging any curves. Size up for fuller hips.

Gatsby themed party, perfect dress! So many compliments!
I am 23 weeks pregnant with my second child and this dress was perfect! I have a little belly and this dress for well, hugged my belly a little and was very comfy. We had an event that was roaring 20's themed and this dress was perfect! I'd def recommend!

Tons of compliments and I felt like a star!
So...most reviews said to order a size down so I was nervous when the smaller size wasn't available. I'm 5'5 and 131 pounds with a 'D' cup and the 2 was perfect! It was comfortable and I still felt it showed my shape well. I received so many compliments and felt amazing

Perfect for Chaperoning Prom
This dress was perfect to chaperone a prom with a Roaring 20's theme. It ran big, so I went with the smaller size. It was super forgivable and comfortable for a long evening. I didn't love the cut in the shoulder area, but it was fine for the style of the dress. And it photographed really well! Overall, I loved this rental!

Perfect dress, comfortable and classic!
Wore this for my sister's wedding. It was in an old style mansion and fit the venue perfectly. I was also two months pregnant and gave a little breathing room which was nice.

I wore this dress to a Gatsby themed gala at a Mansion and received so many compliments!
It was comfortable and so perfectly "art-deco." I typically wear a 6, but ordered both a 4 and 6 in case. I end up wearing the 4 as it was much more flattering.

I absolutely love rent the runway it makes it so easy to attend many social events!
If it was gray was a little strange to put on because there is no zipper but once I got it on, I loved it very comfortable!

Light weight and sparkly, perfect for an evening summer wedding!
The dress is forgiving and very comfortable! I was bloated from eating my way through pre-wedding festivities, and it didn't cling to my stomach. I wore black pumps and a simple multi-layered gold necklace to top off the look. The dress was comfortable to dance in all night. I did notice that if I wasn't careful raising my arms or adjusting the dress when I sat down, the bottoms of my Spanx would peek out. I got tons of compliments and found the dress to be the perfect weight for a May wedding in the south.

Glamour and comfort
This dress was gorgeous and I received compliments all night. Worn for a cocktail casino fundraiser. I am typically an 8 but RTR was not able to send an 8 so luckily the dress runs large and the 6 worked. The lining did cling to my midsection but with the sequins/beading detail I didn't feel like it looked bad. Would rent again!

Loved, loved the detailing on the dress! Very fun for a night out! I typically am between a 2-4 + ended up wearing the 2! Picked up from RTR in NYC + customer service was fabulous...even got to try on the dress in the studio to make sure it was perfect before I left.

Dress was fantastic dress rented for a 20's party
The fabric is very luxurious and looks very high end. I loved the way if fit. Not tight around the waistline but and enough space around the armpit. Would wear it again. Highly recommend.

Love this dress!
This dress was awesome. It's a shift dress so it runs large as that's the fit. I typically wear a 6 but the 4 fit perfect! The quality is so good and the details were really beautiful. Also the dress is really comfortable; it's roomy and I felt comfortable to eat and drink all night. I wore this to a work party so the length was totally appropriate. I got compliments all night long, had to walk a couple blocks to my work party and people on the street kept telling me they loved my dress. Loved this dress!!

A Modern Twist on Gatsby Glam
I wore this as a second dress on my vintage inspired wedding day and it was perfect! It went lovely with my burlesque fan and was super comfortable after having on such a heavy wedding gown. It does run large but it worked perfect for my shape as I'm full chested. I would wear it again in a heartbeat!

The dress was better than expected! Total 10!
This dress is absolute perfection! I ordered two sizes, after reading the comments it ran large. The 12 is what I'd normally go with for length and room in the chest/shoulders, but the 10 was a perfect fit! I did, however, end up wearing the 12 for comfort and the overall 'slouchy' look! I recommend this dress to anyone and everyone! Compliments poured in the entire night and the detail was beyond beautiful! 5 star for sure!

Great dress!
This dress was perfect for the Gatsby themed wedding we attended. The quality of the dress is great and I received so many compliments. I order a 2 and a 4 - the 2 fit, however I liked the looser fit of the 4 (my usual size). If you don't have hips or a booty you can probably get away with going one size down.

I wore this for my bridal shower - huge hit!
This dress was gorgeous in real life. I wore it for my bridal shower and received endless compliments all afternoon! It was super comfortable and easy to wear, and since it's so sparkly, all it really needed was some pretty earrings, so really easy to pull the look off. Shift dresses are never very form flattering so I wish it had a bit more shape to it, but I knew that it wouldn't have much when I rented it. Overall, I loved it!

A little longer then I'd prefer but it was appropriate for my boyfriends family wedding. The cream was a good color and the weight of the dress was perfect, not too heavy. A nude, black or gold sandal would be perfect. I plan on pairing a plain gold bangle and a gold clutch

Fantastic dress, with just enough flash.
I'm 3 months post-baby, and unlike Hollywood celebs and models, I still have about 15 lbs and several cup sizes to lose. (At the wedding, I think I was ~145 lbs.) THIS DRESS WAS PERFECT. It was flattering, didn't make me feel flabby/too busty and had just enough flash to fit into a wedding where there was otherwise a lot of flash. (Which is normally not me.) I've never gotten so many complements on a dress at a wedding. I ordered the 8 and the 10 (though am a normal 6), I only tried on and wore the 8. Maybe could've tried the 6.

Beautiful dress but...
It is a beautiful dress and unique. Fits very well. But the dress i received was falling apart. Beads were missing, sequins are damaged, stitches are wearing off. I guess this dress was too popular and too overused. Otherwise its pretty and comfy.

Perfect for our 20's theme Party
This was perfected for our themed party. The only draw back was that as a pear shape I am heavier on the bottom so the lining was snug (not super tight) and was twisting all night. Had I sized up I would have been swimming in the top, and probably been too long. Other wise it nailed the look. #party #gatsbyparty

I ended up not wearing this. It was a little too long, baggy and conservative for what I was going to attend - but a great conservative look if you need something sparkly
