The color of this dress is very dynamic and will certainly stand out in the crowd.
Size worn: 16
Overall fit: True to Size

I received a lot of compliments from other guests at the wedding. The dress was comfortable and large enough in the hip area. I word spans underneath to ensure a more smooth silhouette in the tummy area. The transparent lacy 3/4 sleeve is forgiving and flattering to those worried about showing their arms. It can be a little warmer so I recommend this for a fall wedding.

Wore this to a shabby chic barn wedding in October- made for great photos and I got a ton of compliments. I chase my two kids all over and didn't feel overexposed. I have an apple shape, and have a tough time finding dresses that fit my shoulders and waist equally well- this dress really did a great job. Highly recommended!

This dress definitely runs small in the arms. I usually wear a size 2 but had to wear the 4 which ended up being loose everywhere else. Which is why I belted it. Cute color.

This dress runs true to size, the material stretches so it's not restricting and it's very comfortable. You can dance and put your arms up with no problem. The color pops and looks great in pictures. I got compliments ALL NIGHT from the wedding guests, even the waitresses! It's the perfect cocktail dress for a wedding or any other occasion.

Amazing Lace Cocktail Dress!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I had another great RTR experience with this beautiful dress. The sleeves were a very snug fit, but I didn't find that to be an issue. The rest of the dress is flattering, but not body hugging, and it fell a few inches above my knee. The necklace I wore with it was also from RTR, and it complimented the dress very nicely. It was perfect for a late autumn wedding, and the color really stood out!

Great experience with RTR and a great NYE!
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Other
The dress is a beautiful berry color. I found it to run a little big on the top, but that may be because my shoulders are pretty narrow for the rest of my body. I always like to know what kind of bra I'm going to have to wear, so just FYI, I wore a nude strapless. Sometimes dresses like this are tight in the arms, but these weren't. I kept the look super classic with pearls and nude stilettos, and I got nothing but compliments from my boyfriend. This was my first RTR experience, and I would definitely do it again.

I received so many compliments on my dress and my bf was googly eyed all night long :-).
It was a bit snug/ revealing around the bust for my taste, but I think I may have been able to mitigate this had I went one more size up. The lace still kept it classy and covered them up a bit. I wore a skin toned bra as advised by another reviewer, which worked perfectly. Overall, a very good rental experience as always!

This dress was gorgeous. I workout a lot so the arms were very tight while the waiste was loose and bottom was fitted. The length was absolutely perfect.

Perfect dress & accessories for a fall wedding!
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I originally had planned to rent the Trouble Maker dress, but a RTR stylist contacted me last week before my order went out letting me know that the Medium I wanted was damaged beyond repair. She let me pick whichever dress I wanted, regardless of price so I found this gorgeous dress! Then, the Large that I had ordered in that dress didn't make it into the order so Talia offered me a surprise accessory which I graciously accepted :)
I was so pleased with my accessories - I had BOTH the Nicole Miller Star Light Star Bright necklace & bracelet. I wanted to keep these sooo badly! I wore them both the night of the event, even with the lace I feel like the necklace was a nice added touch.
The dress was wonderful - I love lace and it was perfect on the dress. The arms were a tad scratchy at times. The 8 fit snug in the arms, but not too bad so I didn't bother to try on the 10 since I felt it would be too large. It hit me about mid thigh which was perfect length for a wedding. Overall great dress and got tons of compliments that this was my best rental yet!

The dress fit well and was extremely comfortable. It runs pretty true to size, thought I will say it DOES stretch. I wished I had gone down a size by the end of the night only because I ended up pulling it up to make sure my bra wasn't showing. I would go down a size for a backup dress. Great color and got lots of compliments!

Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Small

This is a gorgeous dress - got lots of complements. I felt that it ran small in the hips, so I wore the 8. The waist was then a little big, but not noticeable. The color is really rich and perfect for a fall wedding. I think this would be appropriate for any age as well. Great rent!

Subtle sexiness and endless compliments
Size worn: 14
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
Wore this for a rehearsal dinner of a wedding I was in in New Orleans and got 15+ compliments on the dress from friends and perfect strangers on the street.
It is BEAUTIFUL on, from color to fit, and it has a unstated sexiness that WOWS.
I wore a thin-strapped nude bra (38DD) that was not visible through the lace, so NO you do not "have" to wear a strapless.

Size worn: 10
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
The fit was great, a little tight in the sleeves but overall, it fit very well. The only con to this dress is that a strapless bra was not the right bra for this. The lace back cut low as did the slip in the front so I had to use tape in the front but kept fidgeting with the back throughout the night.

This dress fit well and flattering to the figure. I'm 5'7 so the length was perfect on me. What I loved most were the sleeves but I must admit getting a bra to fit perfectly was challenging since the bust line is slightly low. Overall, great for the benefit dinner I attended.

So many compliments!
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress for a wedding in Carmel and I received so many compliments - even from the beautiful bride! Based on reviews I got both my size and a size up, but my normal size fit perfectly. I didn't feel this was tight in the arms like some other reviewers mentioned. I'm tall, and the length hit right above my knees. Dress was very comfortable and the color was beautiful - true to the color it appeared on my computer. Only complaint was that dress would slip down a little and reveal the top of my nude, stapless bra. Not sure tape would help with that, especially if dancing, would just recommend pulling up before snapping pics. Paired with Kate Spade Putting on the Ritz earrings. Did NOT want to send those back!!! I'd rent this dress again, but the fun of RTR is to always get something new!

The dress fit perfectly. No spanx needed! However, I did need to buy a 3/4 bra because my "full coverage" bra would have shown through the lace. The good news...I have the appropriate bra for my next RTR rental. This is a sophisticated, but youthful look that would work for all ages.

Great Color

Overall fit: Small

I rented this dress for my birthday dinner at a fancy hotel/restaurant. I got many compliments, especially on the color. I wore a strapless bra slip underneath. I normally wear a size 12, but my backup size, the 14, fit much better. I think this dress could have been more flattering - in certain light the round neckline did not photograph well. Also, at 5'8" this dress was a tad on the short side, especially when I sat down. However, my worry that this dress would be too fall-y or winter-y was for naught - the rich color works in any season. Overall it was a pretty dress that was comfortable to eat in!

I thought I would wear the 4, but I squeezed into the 2 and it looked better. The tightest spot was in the "cuff" of the sleeve. Once I had it on for a while it became more comfortable. The color was really pretty, and I got some compliments, but nothing WOW! Which is fine, I guess, for a work event. I liked, but didn't love, this dress.

Birthday Glam!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
i wore this dress to a surprise 30th birthday party for my friend (in the center in the Badgley Mischka seequins.) I loved the bright fuschia-y pink and on-trend lace.
The shoulders and arms are cut a bit small, so it wasn't the most comfortable dress to wear for an extended period of time. I'm normally a size 0 (though I was 11 weeks pregnant when I wore this), and the 2 was the smallest size they offered. It was slim through the torso and legs, but not tight, so I'm not certain a 0 would have fit.
This dress was the perfect finishing touch on a day of fun that included facials, pedicures, and a blow out!

My daughter talked me into renting this dress and I was really nervous about it. I don't dress up and am not into fashion, but my daughter felt that we should celebrate my 100 lbs weight loss with RTR. I felt so beautiful and rejuvenated in this dress and received so many compliments. It was the first time in years I felt like being in pictures. Because of my age, I didn't feel comfortable with my arms showing through the lace, so I wore a coverup, however the sleeves did fit quite well.

Favorite thing I've ever worn. Felt so elegant. Compliments all night.
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress! Oh, this dress. It's my favorite thing I've ever worn. I felt so elegant and timeless, but still on-trend. The color and slightly tight (curve-flattering) cut prevent the lace chest and sleeves from feeling dowdy. Color was bold but not flashy (not too saturated, like some reviews made it seem). Even though I have no occasions coming up to wear it again, I felt sad to have to return it -- it really felt like it became "my" dress. (So now I want to have more formal events just so that I can wear this dress again and feel that glamorous.)
Received compliments from other guests all night long (several of whom said I was the best dressed; one of whom compared me to Kate Middleton!).
Fit: skimmed my body perfectly. Really flattering cut. Sleeves a little bit tight (especially if your dance style revolves waving your arms in the air a bunch... just me?)

I wore it to a wedding and paired it with my own Pour La Victoire Irina II grey patent leather pumps and the Janis Savitt Color Me Pretty earrings from Rent The Runway. I loved my outfit! It was cool and rainy the night I wore it. I think the dress might be too warm for the upcoming summer months. I'm 5'7'' so the dress was a perfect length for a conservative wedding. On someone shorter, it might be too long. Overall, it's a beautiful and comfortable dress!

I'm hard to fit at 6'0 but this dress worked. The fabric was giving and the dress was easily worn with a strapless bra. The waist hit a bit high on me but that is due to my height and I'm used to 99% of my dresses needing significant alterations. I accented with a cocktail ring and dangling earrings ~ I didn't want to distract from the detail in the lace. Great night with wonderful friends ~ all also adorned in RTR.

This dress was so beautiful. I was the first one to wear it, got to cut the tags off! My only minor complaint is the color of the dress on the model isn't accurate. I was expecting a berry/wine-ish color, but the dress is brighter and more magenta in person. I was a little disappointed it was so bright at first, but after putting it on I loved it. The smallest size available is a 2. I would have preferred a 0 as it was a little big, but it still fit and looked great. I'd definitely recommend this dress for a classy night out!
