Both sizes fit me but the zipper on the one of them was messed up I wore this to a gala and was the best dressed person in attendance! I felt besitiful
This dress definitely runs a bit big. I loved the shoulder ruffle in this dress. I saw other pictures of this dress with the belt and I liked that look. Was very happy with the overall effect of the gold belt and shoes.
get the usual size and a size smaller I'm usually a size 14 but the size 12 fit better and even a little more room too! I had so many compliments the whole entire night.. the only thing that the dress wasn't long enough as I would've liked, but overall a beautiful fun dress
This is a beautiful, very feminine dress you will not want to take off. I felt so fabulous all night wearing this , I love this dress! Showstopper. Ordered my size long because regular length was unavailable- didn't need the extra length.
The dress and accessories were a perfect combo! The dress is true red, hourglass flattering and overall just stunning. It was perfectly elegant and conservative for my firm's annual holiday party, yet I still felt foxy! Be prepared -- You can't hide anything under this dress other than gel adhesives. I'm 5'1 and planned to wear a 4.5" heel, so I ordered the 4R with a 6R backup size. I ended up going with a 3" heel, which made it a tad long. Overall A+!!!
Definitely wear spanx if you have them, but this dress was comfortable and beautiful!
Length was a little long- I'm 5'4 and had to wear 4 inch wedges. The bust runs a little small, but other parts of the dress run true to size.
So as other reviewers have explained, this dress runs VERY large and baggy through the waist. I am normally a 6 in higher end clothing, but this dress even the 4 was too big. I ended up wearing the 4L even though it was too long, because it had some semblance of a waist and the 4R didn't. Strange dress. At least it was comfortable. If you've got any sort of hips and need to accentuate your waist for a dress to be flattering, this isn't the dress for you. That being said, the color and fabric is gorgeous and if you're more straight up and down, this dress might be great!
The length was perfect for me to wear with flats! The only part I didn't love was the zipper on the side. The fabric in that area didn't lay flat. I ironed it well and that helped some.
Rented for my daughter, age 17, Navy Ball event. She's approximately a size with 34 DDD+ bust. Size 4 was still a bit large in bust area and in waist. She wore another RTR dress instead.
Ruffle too overbearing, strings kept hanging out on the sides. Too low on strapless side. Bulky fit in my 5'2", 38 G frame. Color was beautiful though.
Fit true to size
This dress was absolutely fantastic!!! Compliments all night AND the days after! Great experience and I felt beautiful!
This dress was sent as my backup bc the backup dress I ordered was unavailable last minute. When I tried it on I loved it so much I wore it instead of the dress I actually initially ordered. This dress is AMAZING! I felt like a movie star. It did run a little big so I probably could've worn a 4R in it but the length was perfect. It was so comfy, flattering, and hugged all the right spots perfectly. I was complimented all night long. I was able to move and dance the night away and felt like a million bucks doing so!
I messed up on the delivery date, but with one call, RTR made it happen. Delivered to my door, didn't skip a beat. Really made my life a whole lot easier!
My only complaint is that I ordered a long and should have ordered a regular! With heals, I was fine... Just had to wear a little higher than normal. Great fit, not too tight and hugs in all the right places! I am normally a 4-6 and wore a 2 very comfortably!
This was my back up dress but it was so fabulous it won. I got it in two sizes and the smaller size was the better fit. It's heavily lined so doesn't show imperfections like some fitted gowns do. I did wear strapless spanx underneath and it smoothed out perfectly. I'm certain I've never gotten so any compliments on a dress before.
Had to wear the 2L bc the 4R was so short I could not have worn any heel. Make sure you have a seamless shaper because the seam on the spanx shorts I originally had was very visible. Dress was comfortable and the material is quality and heavy. I wore this to an annual awards recognition event for my company, and my CEO told me I was the prom queen of the night. Got tons of compliments all evening and the red dress really stood out. Great RTR experience!
One shoulder is very flattering if you are busty and have an hour-glass shape. This dress is very comfortable and moves wonderfully with you. The quality is very good. I am 5'4" and wore medium heels with it. If I were any taller, it would have been too short. This dress really stood out at the event I attended and I received LOADS of compliments.
This dress was rented for my daughter's prom. She stands 5'3", and is about 140 pounds. She has a full bust. She used the 4regular. It was a bit long but with platform heels, it fit perfectly. The color was rich and popped among a sea of typical dresses the other kids had. She was red carpet glam- I'm so happy with the way the dress fit and looked. Thanks RTR!!
This dress is beautiful!
The cut and weight of the fabric makes this gown very flattering and noticeable in the sea of mass produced department store gowns at military balls. This is my second time renting this as the first time I was unable to attend my event but that was over a year ago. I would have given it a full 5 stars but the dress and the back up size is showing significant wear. Nothing that is noticeable to anyone at arm's reach but it might be time to retire this style. Be advised that this dress runs very short. I am 5'1" and the regular was perfect with four inch heels. I can wear the petite with a two inch.
Literally the most perfect dress for any formal event! Everyone loved it. So classy and sassy!
A little loose in the waist area but other than that it's a beautiful dress. It's also pretty heavy, broke the hanger.
The fit was so flattering didn't have to wear any tights or anything underneath because it already looked great, so comfortable. A bit long though because I'm short!
The dress fit perfectly, except that it was a little loose in the middle. However, this did not detract from the overall look and comfort of the dress. I normally wear a 4 and found this dress ran true to size. That said, I could have gotten away with the 2, but it was a little too short.
Great length for shorter girls. A little loose around the waistline.

This CMV gown is absolutely gorgeous! I've rented from RTR multiple times but for this particular occasion (my cousin's wedding) I wanted to actually purchase a dress. However, I had no luck whatsoever finding a bridal party gown that I "loved"... At the very last minute my mom logged onto her account & rented this dress for me to wear! And I am SO happy she did. I received so many compliments and the dress was so comfy, perfect length, and just overall amaze. My mom often tells me that I think I am bigger than I really am - she was right this time. I told her to order me a size 8 & backup size 10. I wore the 8R, but it was actually too big around my stomach area and boobs. You can't really tell on this picture but if I would have raised my arms, you could. I would say this dress runs true to size, I just didn't request the right size. A 6R would have been perfect! No biggie though, I have no complaints! Except that it had a tiny little black spot on the ruffles, but it wasn't noticeable unless I pointed it out. Loved this gown! If you're hesitant about renting it... Don't be! Xoxo
The only issue is this dress wrinkled. I'd suggest making sure you have a steamer on hand!
I received. Lots of compliments with this dress. Very beautiful. No negative experience.. True red and good fabric. Definitely can wear undergarments without a problem. 100% recommend !!
I ordered the 2R and the 4R. There was something going on with the zipper on the 2 that was causing the dress to have pleats along the midsection, which weren't supposed to be there. The 2 was the right size but after trying to get in touch with RTR (their phones were down the afternoon I received the dress as well as the day after) I decided to wear the 4 instead. It was a little large but the heavier material weighed it down enough that it didn't look baggy. After hemming the bottom with fashion tape, the dress was good to go! Lovely color- I received tons of compliments from complete strangers and the red was perfect with my boyfriend's dress blues. This was my first RTR experience and I plan to use them again for a NYE wedding!
If you are tall, you must go with the long length option. I tried on the 4R and though it fit in the waist, it hit halfway down my shin. Also, it could have been because it was a looser fit but the zipper didn't lay flat on my side. The dress overall is stunning though!
Pros: flowed down nicely didn't need spanx, great silhouette and the shoulder ruffle was a fun pop. The long is definitely the way to go if you're on the edge - I'm 5'7" Con: only con is that the arm holes were a smidge tight if you're broad.
It fits true to size. I was able to wear a regular and it was still long enough to cover my 2" heels. I got so many compliments the whole night and my husband was very pleased. I would definitely recommend rent the runway to anyone and everyone. This was my first time using it and it was an awesome experience I hope to use them again soon.
I usually wear a 2 and wore the 2P with three inch heels without any issues. The drape of the dress is lovely, but it does fit loosely through the mid-section if you are tiny-waisted. I could not have gone with the zero though or the top wouldn't have fit. It was SO comfortable and the single shoulder strap meant I didn't have to pull it up all night at all. Would definitely recommend. Loved it.
The dress was so comfortable!! I fit true to size. Being tall I was worried about the length but I was still able to wear 1.5" heels. I ordered a 4L and a 6L. The 4L zipped but was tight around the arms. The 6L was perfect. I got so many compliments that night. I felt like I was the bell of the ball!
Overall I was very please. The dress has a very good weight, and made of very soft material, and comfortable to wear all night. Most reviews say that this dress runs large, so I ordered a size down from what I would normally wear. I got a size larger for my backup just in case, and I'm so glad I did because the smaller size was very tight in the bust. However, the midsection of the dress is very forgiving, but in a good way. If you have broad shoulders or a bigger bust/chest, definitely order the size you would normally wear.
I'm 5'3" with a 2 inch heel... Regular length was perfect.
This dress was perfect for a formal event. I should have gotten the long and it would have been great with heals. But I made the regular work with a pair of sparkley flats! Getting and returning this dress has been so easy! This was my first RTR rental and I look forward to doing t again!
