Absolutely loved the structure and color of this dress. Sexy & classic pinup look. I wore it to a fundraiser. Normally I would wear 4-6 but wore size 8 in this, maybe could have worn size 10. So size up from normal size.  Arms a bit tight so raising arms will be limited. Totally worth it. Would rent again. 

Seriously, he really couldn’t keep his eyes off me. He asked me if I would wear it again to an event we are going to next week. I got many compliments and it fit perfectly.

Felt all my feminine energy in this! Got so many compliments. I’m normally a size 0 or 2, but sized up due to the other reviews and really glad I did. Couldn’t zip the size 2. The 4 was still tight but in a good way ¨̮ Don’t expect to dance or move around too much - this dress will make you look amazing, but it is restricting. 

I’m 5’2” 99 lbs (lost some weight) and had to wear a size 4!  This dress was extremely tight everywhere.  Keep in mind that I’m usually a size 0-2P and I couldn’t even zip the size 2.  Unfortunately the size 4 was big in the bust with extra material (as seen in the picture) however I’m barely a B cup.  Overall I received a ton of compliments on the dress but couldn’t wait to get it off!  Lol. I packed sweatpants in the car and changed in there for the 45 minute drive  home.  

I ordered a 4. The four fit perfect through ribs and waist. I couldn’t zip the dress all the way up due to chest and broad shoulders. The size 6 was a great fit. It is very well made.  

Super tight, almost too sexy for the event i wore it too. My measurements are 35 bust, 29 waist, 5’6” tall. It was very tight in the thighs making it hard to sit/take a full stride - so i wore stockings which helped a bit. 
Im a size 6, but I ended up wearing an 8. I also got the 10 which fit more comfortably but bc of my measurements, it was too bulky in certain areas. Overall i loved it, seriously consider where you’re wearing it though and how much you’ll be moving around lol 

very comfortable and elegant at the same time. Warm and makes you look feminine. 

I’m usually a 2/4 and I ordered a 4 and a 6. The 6 fit like a glove (and I probably could’ve gotten away with an 8 even…) This is a standing dress. Not really meant for eating, dancing, or moving around in general. But PHEW do you ever cut a figure in it!

That being said I LOVE this dress! I wore it for graduation, and I ended up buying a 6 because I loved it so much! It’s a showstopper and people asked me to do a spin all night long! 

I got this for a Gala. It was very tight but VERY flattering. Size up! I will definitely be getting this dress again if I ever have another formal event. the fabric is very thick but very forgiving. Probably my favorite RTR dress I’ve ever rented. 

I wear a 32ddd so I had a hard time keeping myself in it but I adored the dress so much. I received so many compliments

The dress is a bit tight on my belly area - but the color and the upper body look so good. Make sure to wear a shape wear underneath if you're worried, but I would recommend for summer night time events! 

I loved this rental. After reading reviews that this dress runs small, I opted for a larger size (10) when I typically wear a 6 or 8.  I was happy I got a size larger because the selves and length.  I fit me very well, a little room which was good for eating and dancing.  I felt very comfortable and beautiful. 

Beautiful color red but runs at least 2 sizes smaller than you would normally wear!

I am usually a 2 and I needed a 6 in this one. Runs small but it's so nice! The material is nice and thick (in a good way) so it feels very secure. I didn't have a big range of motion because of the sleeves but I didn't mind it! Perfect for a wedding! 

The color was great, but the fit was difficult. It fit like a glove in the body but was a bit big in boobs (32C). It kind of would roll down and kept exposing my bra throughout the night. I was able to snap great photos in it but moving and dancing was a challenge. I also could not go to the bathroom in the dress (could not unzip myself and couldn't lift up or twist either because it was too tight). I liked it, but was so happy to take it off at the end of the night and would not rent again. 

I ordered a 6 and 8 because reviews said it runs small (usually wear a 6) and I could barely get the 8 on. However, I still loved and the red is really pretty! 

While the other reviews said this dress ran small, I think it is pretty true to size. I am 5'2" 118lb. C bra size, usually wear a size 4, but every once in awhile fit in a size 2. The 4 fit perfectly. Shoulders stayed put all night and the material was very flattering. Hit me mid calf. I could see this dress being tight around the bust for some women. Felt great in this dress!

The dress is super elegant and the color really stands out. My only complain is that the dress can be a bit tight underarm. I wore this dress for about 7 hours and it left a mark around my arm.

I rented this dress as a second choice for a friends wedding due to the 1st dress not fitting. I wore a a size 2. I am 5'1.5" 110 lbs, 34 C. 
I received many compliments in this dress.  I was able to dance in it, but did feel slightly restricted at the knee and putting my arms up all the way. This dress is made very well, and stayed up on my shoulders exactly where it should (even while dancing). The  material has almost no give so I would order a size-up to be sure you get the right fit. 

This brand runs extremely small, I would normally wear an 8 (sometimes 6) and usually have to size up anyway because I am bustier. The 12 was perfect, very flattering but make sure you do your hair and makeup before getting in the dress because it is difficult to lift up your arms once it’s on. Great length, loved the neckline too as it was a little sexy without being too revealing!

Fit was snug and could not move my arms very much. Loved the silhouette and color.

This was a great color and style. It runs very small, especially for those with a broad build. I typically wear an 8 dress but ordered a 12.  Unfortunately I'm 5'2 so that meant a longer length. Would have been great a bit shorter for me but I still think it worked.

I wore this dress to a wedding, and it was absolutely perfect for the occasion. A word to the wise, however, it runs quite small. I usually wear a 4 or 6, but ended up wearing an 8. This was no problem, as I had known to size up from the other reviews. A tight fit, but so worth it for this stunning dress!

The other reviewers are are correct it runs really small. I'm a pretty solid size 6 in most everything but I read the reviews and ordered an 8 and 10. While the 8 fit it was super tight and I wanted to be comfortable so I wore the 10. I received so many compliments hole at my husband's work gala. I wouldn't get this dress for an event with dancing though because it's hard to raise your arms.

Usually I wear a 6, I'm 5'4 and 135 lbs but even the 8 was snug. I could've worn a 10. However, sooo many compliments on this dress. Definitely a knockout. And my husband loved it. 

I listened to reviewers and sized up from my usual size 4 to a size 8. Dress was a tad loose in the chest (I'm 34B) but it was a great fit overall. 

Too tight. I rigged for a picture and love the neckline, but was definitely too small to leave the house in. Wish Cinq a Sept made 14 and 16. 

This dress was beautiful but definitely order 2 sizes up! My arms were still very tight. I'm normally 4 sometimes 6 and the 8 was a snug fit. Color is beautiful and the fabric feels very sturdy. Doesn't really stretch out like some others do at the skirt bottom. 

This dress was so sexy. My only issue is it does run a bit tight in the arms. I had to exchange the 10 for a 12 but RTR was very accommodating and rush deliver the 12 just in time for the event.

This dress is everything. I rented it for two different spring weddings and got a million compliments on the dress. It's sexy, but also understated due to the length. Only con, I'm usually a 10 and the 10 fit me better in the body but I have muscular arms and broad shoulders so needed to go up to the 12. If you have a more narrow frame you'll be fine true to size. 

Fit was great and I want to order the same brand in a different color and cut for another event! 

This was my first choice, but in the end it was way too small, so i had to wear a back up. The off the shoulder neck line was fabulous, but the cap sleeve is really tight if you don't have super skinny arms. The dress has NO give at all so, it barely fit after 2 sizes up, and I couldn't sit down. Omg though, if you get the right size this dress is beautiful and sexy! I'm going to rent again in the right size if I can find another event to attend! 

I vow to always use rent the runway for all my wedding guest needs from now on!

I am so happy with the fit and quality of the fabric. This dress in particular fit beautifully and I was so happy I didn't haven't to wear a bra, yet the dress held up so well on the dance floor. 

The only flaw about this dress are the sleeves! I had to size up from an 8 to a 12  because the sleeves were so tight and would lay awkwardly off the shoulder. 

I am so happy to learn RTR has this dress in other colors because I'll probably be renting it again next year!

I loved this dress but ladies it RUNS SMALL!! I read the previous reviews and decided to order a 4 and a 6 and I really could have done with an 8. It felt like a very fancy sausage casing but I felt fabulous. There's really no stretch to the fabric so it made it very hard to sit down and dance. I'd definitely order the dress again but definitely in a size up! 

Good fit, tight in all the right places. It's a good dress for an occasion where you don't have to move a lot :) 

Read the reviews so I ordered 2 sizes up. Thank goodness I did, because I could barely fit the chest area. The dress is really classy and fits like a glove. Compliments all night long. Because of the way the arma are structured,  raising your arms is difficult. 
Thanks RTR, this dress was a hit!

I absolutely loved this dress. You'll need a strapless bra. It fit beautifully and was very comfortable. I got so many compliments and I felt gorgeous.
