Carmen Marc Valvo

Tight in the chest and hips (32DD)

Love the color and fabric! The sleeves were a bit uncomfortable. Soooo many complements.

The dress was really comfortable, had pockets, and I got four compliments on the street while walking from my hotel to our restaurant. Flattering even if you don't have a flat tummy. The short sleeves were comfortable, they didn't bind or cut like some similar sleeves do.

Color, fit, style - all stunning. Has pockets, too!

Had so many compliments when I wore this dress! It was a little snug around the arms, but for work I absolutely loved it. Will order again I'm sure.

Dress was fantastic! I received so many compliments. It fit like a glove, with the exception of through the hips/thighs. I am a little curvy and had a hard time getting it over this area, but once I got it on it was perfect. Sitting was a little tricky though! Great highlight for a small waist!!

I wanted to love this dress but sadly it was too big and not flattering! I ended up wearing something else for the occasion. The color and design was pretty.

It accented my curves!

I would've loved this dress if it fit. I normally wear a 16 and order an 18 as my backup per the fit and size notes. There is no stretch so the dress didn't get past my very pear butt and hips.

The fit was true to size. The detail made me feel like a million bucks! Pretty dress and shape was very flattering for my curves.

Wore it to an office holiday party and it was a total hit

Perfect.

I wore this for my early spring bridal shower. It's a thicker material so it helped warm me up as I didn't wear tights. The arms were tight but I managed. Overall the fit was perfect, makes your waist slimming. It juts out at the hips so I wouldn't recommend to anyone who has big hips or thighs. The color is gorgeous and got so many compliments.

I probably could had work this in a 6 but it was comfy in the New Orleans heat. The fabric is a bit stiff but overall, I loved this dress. Would rent again.

Comfortable. Classy. AND it has pockets!!!!

Beautiful dress, great color! It was a little more formal than I needed so I didn't end up wearing this to my event.

Great dress! Flattering for those of us with a little belly and curves. Arms were a little tight. But other than that it was a good fit.

Tight around ribcage. Gorgeous dress.

I wore this to my law school graduation, and this dress was a perfect mix between fun and professional. The dress is structured, and the material is thicker, so it is very flattering. I usually wear a 6 or an 8, depending on the silhouette. The 6 "fit," but I wore the 8 to more comfortably accommodate by broad shoulders. Loved this dress!

Beautiful dress. I wore it for a summer wedding. It fit me a lot like it shows on the RTR model -- fitted bust and flares a bit at the hips. I usually wear a 0/2 or XS/S in off the rack clothes. The bust of this dress was a bit snug (maybe shouldn't have worn a padded bra). It hit right above me knee and was a little difficult to move in when getting in and out of the car. The dress photographs a little darker than the actual color. It gave me some shape to my hips which I don't mind.

Very comfortable.

If you want to receive compliments all night rent this dress! It is beautiful in person and photos do not do it justice. I rented a 4 and a 2 but chose to wear the 4 instead. The overall fit with the 2 was better but like many other's I was unable to sit down because of the way the skirt is cut. I had no issues sitting in the 4 even though it did give me a little more room in the bust and ribs than I normally prefer. I did not have an issue with the cap sleeves in either size. The dress was comfortable and perfect for a winter wedding. I would definitely rent this dress again!

It wa comfortable.

Gorgeous color and pattern. Work appropriate, but the fabric is a bit heavy for summer. Compared to another dress I had by this designer, this one seemed to run a bit smaller. I could still wear it, but would have preferred to be able to go up a size. It has pockets, but not much room left for items if you have bigger hips :-)

For whatever reason, I didn't receive my backup size this time. But the 8 fit like a dream, so it was fine. Terrific color and great shape, but it's not roomy or stretchy if you're planning on cutting a rug, maybe try something else. Everyone loved this dress and asked where I got it. I was sad to put it back in the mail box!

I wore this to a cocktail event. I feel the dress would have been perfect if the inner sheath of the dress was not as tight. Otherwise, the dress fit very well.

I still have a postpartum bump and the structure of this dress hid it beautifully. It was very flattering!! A little tight on the arms. But worth it!

Loved it!

I did not wear this dress, I only tried it on. I did however wear the green/blue one a couple years ago. I love them both. This style is so classy and flatters any figure!!

This dress was gorgeous, color and rose detail was more beautiful in person. Almost too dressy for my casual work event but I rolled with it. Got tons of compliments. True to size. It's tighter around the bottom hem so not the easiest to get in and out of cars, etc.

the dress is a beautiful color and pattern. I feel as though it does fit maybe 1-2 sizes small

I had a bit of an emergency and RTR delivered in style. Loved this dress! It runs a size small so make sure to order a size larger. Love the details and there are many. Perfection is what this dress is. Thank you RTR! #YouRock #Fav

I loved this dress! It was classy and perfect for my brother's law school graduation.

I cannot say enough good things about this dress. Flattering, slimming, cut, and gorgeous color. I'm not supposed to wear patterns at my job but got away with this one because it's very subtle. Would rent again over and over again! Got so many compliments!

None of the photos I took could do justice to the exquisite color of this dress. This dress fit me perfectly--everything about it from capped sleeves, waist, skirt length--PERFECTION. Ladies and men were stopping me every five minutes to compliment me on this dress. My aunt loved it so much she rented it in a different color and had nothing but praise. Will rent this style from this designer again. Hands down top 5 best rentals.

This was a great gown for a friend's outdoor springtime wedding at a beautiful mountain venue in Asheville. But be warned - size up! I have had success with RTR in the past wearing size 16 and 18 dresses. When the 18W was unavailable for this dress, I went for a 16W -- WAY too small. Thankfully, RTR was able to overnight me a 20W (and an additional backup dress), and the 20W fit beautifully! This dress does not have stretch, but it has a great structure that is very flattering. I was worried that the pockets and pleats would make me look bulky, but instead it gave me a great hourglass shape. I got tons of compliments and even had one friend ask me if I had it custom-tailored. I'm actually thinking I will rent this again for a formal party in June. Highly recommend!

This is a great dress, comfortable, beautiful color and material that does not wrinkle. Sleeves are very cute which you cannot see from the model.

The fabric was lovely, the details were charming, the fit was everything I've ever wanted in a dress, and... POCKETS. Rent The Runway is lucky they got this one back from me - I've fallen in such love with it I'm going to be hunting the web for a place to purchase it and then pinch my pennies until I can. Five stars, 10/10, home run of a rental.

Good for a work event. A bit long though the torso and legs on my 5'1 frame but I liked the fabric and received several compliments.

Love this dress. It fit perfectly and I received a lot of compliments. The pockets are great. It was very flattering.
