Runs true to size. If you are larger on top you will definitely need to wear a tank under, as the neckline is very revealing otherwise. I did need to give it a quick steam before wearing, as other renters also stated in their reviews. I would rent it again. It was perfect for the daytime wedding I went to. 

I received so many compliments on this dress! I'm tall and the length/cut was great for my height and hourglass shape. I was able to wear this to work then to a swearing-in ceremony reception. Loved the versatility! Probably should have bought it...

Fit perfectly. A bit low cut for busty ladies but I didn't mind given it was a longer fit.

The colors of this dress are simple and beautiful. I've always wanted to try on Von Furstenberg dress and now I can see what the hubbub is all about. I think the dress can make most bodies looks great and elegant. I'm seriously on the fence about buying this one. Try it. You'll like it! 

Loved the flow of the dress and the colors.  Easy to dress down or up.  You can wear a regular bra.  I was 6 weeks postpartum when I wore this dress and it gave me confidence and I felt great!   Of course in true RTR fashion I got lots of compliments :)  (Also, since I just had a baby I'm not actually sure what my sizes are right now) 

I really like the material and the design but the wrap skirt likes to fall open at random times which makes it awkward for work. Needs a pin to keep closed.

I wore this dress to work and it was so flattering and comfortable. The material is very soft and hangs nicely. The one thing I will say is to make sure the tie is tied tight: it can be revealing on the chest if it loosens. Totally recommend. 

Beautiful dress and great fit! It was a bit low cut so I couldn't get away with wearing it to work like I originally intended BUT that's because I'm pregnant and my cup size has increased a lot! If I wasn't pregnant I would definitely be able to wear this one to work! 

Similar to other reviewers, I had to steam iron the dress before wearing.  Other than that, it's a lovely wrap dress.  Great for an outdoor barn wedding.  

Really liked the dress, very flattering, my husband loved the way I looked! It really is a dress for any occasion, you can dress it up or just be casual. Love the material! 

I really liked this dress! I wore it on vacation for a night out when it was particularly hot and it was so flowy that I didn't feel overheated. . I am really tall and I felt comfortable with the length. It did require ironing when I received it, so be sure to budget time for that when getting ready

This dress is beautiful. Although I chose to wear it to work, probably a better option for a wedding, girls dinner, bridal shower, or a nice outdoor event. Sexy, flowy and the material and colors are beautiful. If the wind blows a certain way, expect to show a little leg. Definitely had to pin it up to keep the girls under wraps at work 

Love this. Had to wear a shirt underneath since the top was so big but still looked good and felt comfortable. Material wrinkles easily and had to iron it before wearing. 

The material on this dress is thin, and looks sheer on the hanger, but not on.  The material flows perfectly and hangs just right.  I got tons of compliments on the colors and the dress! Loved it :)

Fit was good. This was a little big on me as I grabbed a size 10 because it was in the show room. I will order a 6 or 8 next time. 

Beautiful dress, however the fabric wrinkles easily. When it arrived I had to gently steam it before wearing it - so be prepared for that. I wore it for about two hours and it wrinkled a good amount in that short time. The fabric also shows water spots easily. I love wrap dresses but this one tended to unwrap pretty easily around the chest and I kept pulling at the neck opening so my bra wouldn't show. Perhaps a little double-sided fashion tape would help with this? A slip is recommended. I received about four compliments in the two hours I wore it so it certainly made a statement, however with all the fidgeting I did while wearing this I won't be re-renting. 

I loved wearing this dress. I'm rather sad I have to return it. The fabric is light and flowy. The colors are bright and slimming. The olive is not a color I usually wear but it worked out well. Loved this dress so much!!! 

I usually wear a 16, so I took a chance with this dress. It's a true wrap dress so there was some forgiveness in size. I wore a 14 and it looked great.

Paired with silver jewelry and nude shoes. 

This dress was light and flowy! I wore it to a bridal shower so I did wear a cami underneath because it was very low cut. I could have gotten away with not wearing a cami for a night out! Got lots of compliments and the dress was comfortable to wear!

Rented this dress at 7 weeks postpartum for a Memorial Day weekend wedding in Northern Michigan - it was flattering and forgiving and I was sad to return it! For reference, am about 120lbs at this point postpartum with HUGE boobs from breastfeeding. The silk is a medium weight and gives the skirt a lovely swing. The wrap is low, but I paired with a nursing tank underneath so I could just loosen the tie and breastfeed easily. Really loved this dress!

This dress definitely needs to be pinned if you have a smaller chest; I am a 36D and I still needed to pin it (the photo shows the dress unpinned). Pinning the dress made the lines straighter and made the dress fit better. The dress is definitely a lightweight material so it is a good choice for warm weather events, but I think it would've been easier to manipulate the fit of the dress. I ended up not wearing the dress because  I had to return the other dress I had rented for the wedding (this dress was for the rehearsal) and I wanted the full credit for my order. If I had the ability to keep one dress for the rental period I definitely would've kept this dress and worn it to the rehearsal. 

I rented this for my confirmation ceremony and it was perfect! My first DVF dress and it did not disappoint! Compliments all night, and I felt beautiful! Loved the drape and fit of this dress. I wore a camisole and cardigan bc it was a church event. But would wear without for a date night. I'm a larger than usual pear shape, and the dress was very flattering. Ties above Natural waist (5'9"). 

This dress was so easy to wear! It was so comfortable, light, and flowy. Loved the color combo and the soft silk fabric. I surprisingly didn't have any issues with the wrap V-front and didn't need any fashion tape to prevent my bra from peeking out. Since I'm a shortie, the dress hit just above my ankles.

The colors of this dress were what caught my eye when I was looking for a dress to wear to a wedding in southern CA and it did not disappoint in person - so vibrant! It was perfect for the occasion (non-black tie) and the fit was perfect, so flattering with the tie waist. This is classic DVF - these dresses are iconic and the wrap style fit perfectly. I had to pull it pretty snug for the dress to lie flat on my chest, but not so tight that it was uncomfortable. I'm 5'9" and this dress hit just below my knees. So light, feels like air. The only downside of the silk is that it's a little susceptible to deodorant stains, though a dry washcloth wiped away most of the residue.  A cautionary note that if it's breezy, be prepared to hold the dress down - I almost had a Marilyn Monroe moment! 

I wear it on a date. Deep V so I wear a bralette.

This wrap dress was very comfortable- thin material so good for warmer weather. I wore with a blazer since it was cold out 

Fits true to size maybe even a little big especially in the bust area but I'm small busted 

Was a good  modest length but with heels. came to shin length and I am 5'5 - 5'6 tall 

Received many compliments- overall pretty dress for the spring /summer 

I could not get the top of this dress to lay well.  I am small chested and it kind of drooped no matter I did.  I almost returned without wearing, but then tried it with a fitted navy sweater on top and it looked fantastic.  So many compliments on my gorgeous 'skirt'.  The colors are beautiful and the skirt has fantastic movement.  It ended up being a hit despite the ill fit of the top (on me).
