This is a perfect date dress. I loved the pattern. It is a little tight in the shoulders and short but its a great day date dress.

This ran a little snug for me up top, but I am a little broad. Other than that, I loved this cute little number. It was fun to wear for the day, even though it wasn't for the date night I was expecting. It dressed down easily for a relaxed Sunday, and I felt great in it all day with a pair of flip-flops. Could have been great for a date night with a pair of heels too!

I rented both a size 0 and 2, but since the size 0 was unable to ship, they sent me another alternative dress. Unfortunately, the fit on that didn't work on my body (I'm not so busty!) and so I went with my original choice in the size 2. Still very cute and I wore a black belt to cinch my waist. The sleeves hit at a weird place, right before your wrist. 

I loved wearing this for a valentines date with my husband.  The only size available was a 4 and I'm usually a 6 so it was a little short when I sat down but otherwise a perfect dress.

The 6 would have fit except it was too tight in the bust for my size D boobs. 

This was not the dress I had originally chosen but thanks to RTR's incredible customer service this was overnighted to me just in time for my birthday. I sized up based on other reviews and I'm glad I did.  The shoulders are a little more structured but not in an uncomfortable way. Sizing up prevented me from feeling restricted. I'm 5'5 and didn't feel like the dress was too short either. I will likely rent this dress again

Rent the Runway sent me this dress as a replacement, because the dress I wanted wasn't available at the last minute. It wasn't an appropriate replacement for the formal mini I had rented, but I made the best of it and wore it that morning. Though it wasn't my style and I wouldn't have picked it for myself, it was actually pretty cute. It was very light and breezy (but it's lined), and the short length kept it from looking matronly. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because it felt only slightly matronly. So, cute dress for the art museum? Check.

Wore this for New Years Eve Party!!! So comfortable and easy to accessories.  Lots of compliments even on post from Facebook and Instagram!! Fits try to size.  I wore a 4.  I'm 4"11 with hips and booty... Gained weight since 2 kids and this made me feel pretty for a night!!! 


The dress is so comfortable and very true to size. I'm a little larger around the bust and I used a bandeau which worked perfectly. Great length, just above my knee considering I'm fairly short. Sleeves where perfect length. Got compliments all night long! 

Rented this for my doctors Christmas party.  I am very broad shouldered and have a large chest so I had to go with the 12. It was still snug on me around the shoulders but it was wearable. I paired it up with a black bootie and got tons of compliments. It's not very formal at all, great for a low key party. Was a thicker material, which is why it is great for a cooler night. I would buy this dress if I could.
