Wore it for my birthday dinner. Runs small around the arms. Not much stretch.

I loved this dress, as it wasn't revealing but felt very sexy.  The "turtleneck" portion of the dress was a bit loose and probably the only thing I didn't care for.  The material had a slight stretch and the dress was lined.  Very comfortable.  Wore this for a NYE party and felt appropriate.  The pattern is different, but works. 

Def would have worn the 10. The 12 was too big especially around the neck and back. You will not be raising the roof in this dress because the shoulders don't have too much give. But if was flattering and classy sexy. The slip did show when I sat but it didn't matter. I was covering some extra weight and it helped! I looked great in person and in photos.

I wasn't prepared for all the compliments i rec'd on this dress! I picked it because it covered me from my neck to my knees, needing modesty for a corporate evening event. However it is also fashionably form-fitting (w/o being overtly sexy) and it was obviously a hit judging from all the positive feedback. The size 4 fit well except around the neck which had to be pinned tighter to keep it from sagging. It is true the sleeves could be tight if your arms aren't small but this wasn't an issue i had. The dress was a thin material, was comfortable, and didn't wrinkle even after being seated for several hours. I wouldn't hesitate to rent it again.

Perfect dress for a political function, yet edgy and body hugging enough to turn heads! Loved the lace, dress is much prettier in person. I didn't have a problem with the arms and I have larger ones then most. I probably could have worn the 4 but being a 34 DDD I needed the 6 for the bustline. There were a couple of times I noticed the liner peeking out from the hem, but not enough that it made me uncomfortable. Received many complements from both women and men. I would love to own this, but one of the best things about RTR is that you can wear something stunning and expensive for every event and still save a fortune!!

I loved this dress, it was very flattering on me although my waist is a little slimmer than my hips so it fit a bit loose there but other than that it fit pretty well! Overall loved the dress and the long sleeve on it!

Pro: Youll look amazing in it, it shows all your curves
Con: NOne!

This was my first rental. VERY happy! Runs true to size. I read it was tight in the arms, so even thought I wear normally a 2 or 4, I reserved the 4&6. The 4 fit like a glove. Many compliments!

Fits like a glove!  Perfect for a fall wedding or holiday party.  The dress was right below the knee and is very figure flattering!  Would love to buy this dress for myself!!

I have a question: Do you think this dress would be good for an event in May at the beach? Or is it more of a "fall/early spring" dress?

Hi Allison, I think this dress would be a great for a fall or spring event. The neck does make it not so summery

I didn't realize the dress had overlying lace on a slip like material. I thought for some reason it was a spandex printed dress. I was pleasantly surprised it wasn't because the dress was all the more elegant. I was so happy with this dress, I danced all night without a care. I paired it with nude heels. Will def rent the runway again, this was a great experience!

Great dress, great fit!!!! The only thing that was a slight issue were the sleeves they were kind of tight. The silhouette this dress gives is something i live for! So many people were trying to figure out who I was. RTR made me a celebrity for an evening.  

I wore this to a fancy birthday party and also to a baby shower and it worked well for both occasions.  This dress is stellar and has such great lace detail.  I've been considering actually buying it after renting it since it works for so many different functions.  Love this!

Fit like a glove!  Looks fab with a red lip, perfect for the holiday season.

The dress fit according to most of the reviews and the RTR stylists' info.  The sleeves definitely were tight, but nothing uncomfortable. I was a little worried about breaking through the lace, but probably unnecessarily so.   I wore Spanx, and I would recommend doing the same. The size 6 fit perfectly, like it had been tailored for me personally.  I ordered the size up, because of the sleeve tightness comments, so I would recommend the same, especially if you have larger biceps. The dress hung like it should.. I never felt like I had to pull or tug at it when standing up or sitting down  (something that I think is so annoying and tacky!).  I wore it with shiny goldish-silver shoes and simple red and silver earrings similar to the ones on the model.  I started getting compliments on the dress even before arriving at the event!

This was a great last minute rental for my law firm's holiday party.  I have pretty muscular arms so it was a bit snug around the shoulders but I made it work.  It's the perfect length and not-so-snug fit to it.  I received many compliments that night!  

I usually wear a 4/6, and I ended up wearing the 4 because I wanted it to look form-fitting. The sleeves are on the tight side so it's probably not the best dress to wear to a wedding where you'll be dancing, but it's great for anything else. I had a great time wearing it! 

I wore this to a gala in Palm Beach. In a sea of typical cocktail dresses this stood out in a great way. I was with co-workers and I felt comfortable sitting across from my boss and still sexy for my husband :) This dress is long, I am very tall and you can see where it hit my knees. Also, the mid section is a little loose, I would have preferred to have it tighter around my waist it made me look a little puffy there, but overall I loved the dress <3

Fits perfectly.  Sleeves are a little tight (as they should be), but if you have larger arms may be an issue.  

Nothing like lace and silk against your skin, and when you I wore this very sophisticated dress I felt like the diva of the party.  I am definitely thinking about purchasing this one for my wardrobe.  Thank you RTR!!

The fit is true to size except ask your self this question?   Have I ever complained about my arms?  If you have, this dress is not for you.   The lace sleeve is very narrow and will only fit a thinner arm. 

The rest of the dress is gorgeous and totally amazing.   In my picture in standing near my kitchen and the background doesn't do the dress any justice.  Do you see my son in the background dancing?  Right, so this isn't a step-and-repeat.   You will have to trust me that this dress is so flattering, so impeccable , so special.   I want to keep it.  

This is perfect for dates, office, holiday, cocktails....

It is sexy and feminine but reveals nothing and fits great like all DVF.  

One of my very favorite rentals!

Feminine, tailored dress in an eye-catching pebble print. At first, I thought: pebbles? Really??? But then I kept staring and coming back to this dress as I was browsing RTR, so I took a chance and rented it for a early evening wedding at an art deco-y venue.

So glad I did! I was very pleasantly surprised. I noticed the print accentuates curves by strategically placing different sized pebbles. Black lace sleeves have minimal stretch, but also have a slimming effect. Wore the dress ~7 hours, and it's actually very comfortable. It's lined, so it was warm enough too for the cooler fall weather. Only thing I would complain about is it's a little roomier at the waist, to the point I didn't really understand why, but then it meant more room for dessert! I went from being really unsure about this dress to stalking it online after I returned it because I really want to own it now!!!

did the dress go below ur knees or above ur knees?

This is such a unique dress! I love the pattern and the lace sleeves and the high neckline really adds a fun edge to it. The dress runs pretty true to size with a little extra room in the waist area, but overall a great fit!

I did not have any problem with the sleeves. I wore sharper under to keep me firm as i just had a baby four months ago..

I normally would have worn the size zero, but I sized up to get more room in my sleeves - if you work your arms out, I'd recommend you do the same. 

DVF size 6 always fits me dead on which made this dress extra flattering. As others have said, the arms do run small. That worked well for me but ladies with muscular arms take note. Minus one star because the slip shows at the hem unless you tackle it with fashion tape. 

I skimmed past the details and originally thought the dress had a graphic print. It's actually gorgeous lace detailing, which creates a polished, elegant look. Combined with the tailored silhouette it's quite a high impact piece. It was definitely a head turner and perfect for my date to the Symphony!   

Runs small! I usually wear a size 8 and I wore the 12 in this dress. Much prettier on the body than the hanger. 

Flattering through the body, but the arms are very tight! Had to size up from an 8 to the 10 to accommodate. 

It was tight, i felt as though my stomach and butt were out for the world to see. I still did get a lot of compliments, its a beautiful dress made well.  I wish I had ordered the 4 and 6 to try on, not the 2 and 4, but usually I am a 2.  At the same time, it was such a different dress, not something you see on most people.

Spanx worthy dress. Loved it. All comments here are right on regarding the slip lining;.Shows below the hem. So annoying. I taped it up all around. Problem solved. Still, it's crazy DVF would have designed such a flaw. Overall, great dress. 

It fit true to size, the only problem was the sleeves. They were a little tight because they were lace does not stretch.

Fit well however the line in back moved about all night! Slip showed all night! Could have worn the 8 or the 10 however the 8 had a huge hole down the side. The 10 had a small hole on the arm which I masked.

A second choice to a few others but still a nice dress. There are others that I prefer, however, a good second choice

The pattern of the dress is fabulous! Photographs well. As some have also said in their reviews of this dress the sleeves are a lil tight. Lucky for me my arms are not that big so it wasn't uncomfortable. I so wish I could rent this dress again for the next big party!! :) 

the lining kept coming out from underneath and showing but dress itself was very comfortable. from the pictures it looks like a graphic print when in fact its just the lace that makes it look that way

The dress definitely runs large. I usually wear a size 4 but ended up in a size 2 and I'm pretty sure the size 0 would've been an even better fit which almost shocked me because I've never been a 0 lol. Hope this helps.

Narrow arms and a wee snug around the hips, but such a good dress.  Don't plan on lifting your arms and dancing as there isn't a lot of movement in the sleeves.

I really felt like I was a part of the upper crust wearing this number last night at the RTR Our Runway exclusive event!  It was extremely flattering to my curves without making me feel out of place.  The sleeves did fit a little snug on me, but that's because I work on my arms a bit.  I was flattered when another girl walked up to me and said, "Great dress!  We should take a picture!" until I realized she was in the same dress as me!  My boyfriend already requested if I could rent this again soon, and I sure will!

This dress accentuates my curves perfectly but its very matronly. Its also pretty long. I'm 5'9" and it ran to my knees. I would wear this with a killer pair of heels and a vampy lip. Otherwise, I would feel covered. Unique option for an arts or creative event!

I wish I brought shapewear with me as this dress enhances extra weight. Can get pretty warm if dancing and hard to control the slip. 

This dress looked great and photographed well; however, the dress would twist and shrink in length with every step.  The slip underneath was longer than the "lace" part so that looked sloppy.   

This is my least favorite RTR dress.  

Very very thin fabric but isn't sheer at all.  I found the stomach area "hung" a little to where if I had a big dinner, wouldn't be flattering as this fabric would show every last lump or bump.  I was just trying it on for size here, sent it back without wearing it.  

I went to the Opera in this dress. It is sexy elegant! Very form fitting and I loved it. The hem was coming undone though. Beautiful dress. 

I rented this DVF for a friend's rehearsal dinner. I thought the stone pebble pattern was not only flattering, but also a fun nod to the wedding location (coastal Maine.) The style works well for hourglass body types. For me the fit was great overall, pretty true to size, except in the upper arms (more snug than I was expecting.) A great dress you can dress up or down depending on the occasion.

I love this dress! It hugs all of the right curves. This dress fits true to size and I saw where several have reported that it is small in the arms, I didn't have that problem at all. it was surprisingly very comfortable with stretch in the material. The only reason I did not give this dress 5 stars is because the flesh tone lining of this dress hung out from the bottom from 1-3". The It can be a quick fix if you have double sided tape. I felt like a million bucks in this dress. 100 percent head turner!

It's a BAD picture. It looks twisted & tight, but it was not.
This dress was extremely comfortable. I took the advice in the other reviews as the sleeves run tight and my upper arms run big. So I went with the 8, even thought the 6 probably would have fit. I also did have to tape up the lining as it runs past the dress itself.
Like other reviewers have said, you can't tell from the picture, but the dress is a beautiful lace, not polka dots.
I was turning heads in AC all night! 
This one is a winner.

If you have curves, you'll be a show stopper in this dress. I usually wear an 8 or 10, but I sized up to a 12, because of the reviews. I didn't find the sleeves to be very tight, and I'm actually someone who is very self conscious about my arms. Im a 34DDD, so I knew anything form fitting would require a larger size as well. The dress was comfortable and I danced all night in it! This was my favorite dress I've ever rented and it looks amazing! The pics do it no justice!!
