I loved this dress! So many compliments! I always feel the need to coverup my broad shoulders but this actually seemed flattering! My first time wearing a one shoulder. Would buy this dress! 

Nice fabric, good fit for someone with curves. The fabric was tight enough and thick enough in the bust for me that I didn't have to wear a bra. Made me feel beautiful!

I was an officiant for a friends wedding and wore this dress.  It was a perfect little black dress that was conservative enough to wear during the ceremony, as well as dancing.   Only downfall was it is a little tight through the hips 


This was one of two dresses RTR overnight rd after the first two didn't fit correctly.   I wasn't sure about the one-shoulder but it was perfect!  There is a pattern in the material that dresses it up a bit from your basic LBD, and the shoulder is sassy without being too over the top.  Super comfortable too!  

I wore this to my boyfriend's sister's wedding.  I was pleasantly surprised with the fit of this dress.  It hugged my curves perfectly and was a great length.  A great black dress option! 

Loved everything about the dress; there were some loose strands but other than that it was perfect.

I wore this to the theatre with my boyfriend in November. I rented 12 & 14. Beware--there is no stretch in this dress. 12 ran a bit tight, but was more flattering around the bust while the 14 gaped a lot on the strapless side.  (The little black hanger straps kept coming out all night--maybe get some tape to hold them down?) My boyfriend definitely liked the textured fabric--showed off my assets well even though it was unimpressive on the hanger. This dress did run a bit on the long side for me, hitting barely above my knees. I paired this with small silver jewelry and some strappy Calvin Klein heels to keep it simple.

I wore this to a graduation dinner. Perfect little black dress. The material was thicker but comfortable. It had a pretty floral design with a slight shimmer to it. I loved the ruffle shoulder  detail. It was snug in the chest area but a bit big in my hips. Loved my overall experience! 

This dress is really flattering and extremely comfortable. My boyfriend and mom were "unimpressed" when I showed them the photo of what I rented & even when they saw the dress on the hanger. Luckily, I knew better. The subtle pattern on the dress makes it look really nice and not plain at all. The one shoulder fit perfectly - I have a small bust & am too annoyed by strapless dresses to even consider them so this was perfect for me. The only thing is that the dress is a little large around the mid section and also a little long. When I first tried it on I was annoyed that the fabric bunched in the midsection when I walked around (everything above the band stayed in place and was perfect). I bought some hemming tape and brought up the bottom of the dress at least 2 inches, the length of the slit, and that made it look a lot more flattering (& young) and also made it a bit tighter, alleviating some of the bunching. I think if the dress came in a 4 it probably would have been perfect for me... I wear a 6 in most work dresses and pants but sometimes formal wear I need a 4 so I'm not very surprised by this. I opted for grey and black BCBG heels and simple jewelry since I felt the dress did most of the work. I wore large silver/diamond studs and a silver bracelet, seriously no necklace needed. I would definitely rent this again. 

I wore this to a party.  It was a little big.  I am not quite a 14 but it didn't look too bad.  A little worn but a good functional party dress.

Ended up wearing another dress I rented to the wedding but this was super cute and I would totally rent it again!!  The dress I wore was a 14 but the 12 fit in the dress (and I usually wear a 10/12). 

This dress fit me like a glove, which is why i rated it "runs small.".  I loved it and it was much more comfortable than i had expected.  Easy to sit and dance in!  I received many compliments and would highly recommend this dress!

I am normally a size 10, but wore the 12 because the lower portion was too tight to be comfortable. The top half was too large and had to be safety pinned. Even with the adjustments this dress was incredibly comfortable and looked great on!

Because there was no stretch, I had to wear the larger size, which fit perfectly!! It was perfect for a super classy wedding in Newport, RI! Easy to move in and I was able to dance all night AND eat ;)

Dress fit well and worked great but was a little bit worn. There were some strings hanging down that had to be cut and the lining when it arrived was a little bit rumpled with the bottom of the dress. Lining issue was fixed just by letting it hang up so no issue there. Really liked this dress and would rent it again for similar events. Material is not too heavy so wearing it for an outdoor evening wedding in early May was ok. 

This is the first dress that I have rented from Rent the Runway.  I was very pleased with the dress.  It fit perfect and was very comfortable.  I received lots of compliments.  The design in the material make it very elegant. The dress arrived a day before it was suppose to and was easy to ship back after my event.  I found that past customers pictures were very helpful in picking out a dress so I especially love that feature offered from Rent the Runway!

I loved the length and cut of this dress. However, while it fit my hips pretty well, it gaped quite a bit on my left side and I was worried I might pop out of it! Also, the black straps used to hang the dress kept coming out. Other than that, I loved it!

This was my first RTR and I'm hooked! There is NO stretch whatsoever in this dress, but the material is thick and holds up well. I had to size up as recommended and found that it was a little big in the bust, but overall it was a great fit and I got so many compliments on it! I felt so pretty in it, it was hard to return! 

Perfect!  Fitted through then bust and loose in the abdomen. But that's more me than the dress. Very comfortable. Lots of compliments. Will definitely wear again!

The fit was great! My stomach is my biggest problem area and this dress hit it well. It's a very classy dress that can be glammed up with good jewelry and shoes. Would definitely rent again!
