True to size, with a little give in the material so you don't feel constricted in your movement. Very low cut which workes fine for someone who is smaller chested like myself. 

Ordered this for a Bachelorette party in Vegas. This brand usually runs smaller so I ordered a Medium and it fitted perfectly even though I usually wear a Small or XS. The fabric was super soft and comfortable!  With a little help of double sided fashion tape, I felt amazing in this dress all night. 

This dress fit amazing!! I loved how it held me in. I have a larger chest and wore the small. Did not worry about coming out of the dress all night. I did put a little tape on just in case though! The slots on side were just enough peek a boo without it being too revealing. 

Hugs just right and made me feel like a million bucks! I've worn this dress for several occasions and every time it's a hit!

This was my back up dress for a wedding in Las Vegas. I didn't end up wearing it to the wedding but I loved it so much I wore it to brunch the next morning! I felt just the right amount of sexy and classy in this dress! It's slimming in all the right places, although I did wear spanx under it! I'd rent it again!

Worn for NYE, had to get fashion tape to hold the dress in place in front.

I wish I had taken more pictures :( but I uploaded this one just for reference of how low cut it is. Was not too short for me which is usually a problem, but was hands down one of the most comfortable dresses that I've worn, especially with the low cut and cut outs on the side! Got so many compliments!

Once you get past the incredibly low neck line, this dress is the best. It was super comfortable to wear, required no adjustments, and generally kept me covered with a little fashion tape in the chest area. 

I wore this dress for a night time reception I was hosting. Definitely a bold statement dress! Loved the dress so much. I'll definitely rent again. 

This dress fit really well and made me feel oh so sexy! 
Obviously you cannot wear it with a bra. I didnt have a chance to grab tape before my event so I went without and it was fine. I couldnt bend over but otherwise no problems. 
The naterial is thick enough that i didnt need spanx either. 
I couldnt recommend this dress more!! 

Definitely runs large compared to other E&J dresses, and it's very stretchy. I did the Kim Kardashion tape trick (to fight gravity) and then used fashion tape to attach the dress to my body so there wouldn't be any slip-ups. I was nervous when I ordered this, but it was comfortable (and show-stopping) for nine hours of dinner and dancing. Highly recommend when you want to turn heads.

Fit like a glove! Normally a size 4-6 and I wore a small. I was a little worried the girls would fall out but the dress is tight enough there was no problem! I would say it reminds me of a Herve leger dress but the material is thinner but very form fitting.  

Loved this rental! Was a little nervous after reading the reviews on how exposed your chest can be but in the end I felt SO comfortable. Wore the Small since it felt more secure and Definetly would say this pick might be best for small chests. But overall would recommend anyone to give it a try! 

I loves this LBD for a special event I had to go to.  It was a little outside my comfort zone with the deep V neckline.  It was extremely comfortable to wear and I had several compliments.  I am a 34D, 5'8" tall, and usually a size 4/6.  I wore a sz Small but had I gone to a med I dont think it would Have been as secure for the "girls". I wasn't concerned with the cut outs on the sides either as they were very small. The knit fabric made it super comfortable and it was thicker fabric and looked very expensive. With minimal jewlery it made a statement all night long! 

Although it does cut low in the front, I felt completely secure! It was a great dress. I got lots of compliments and the guys loved it...lol! I felt smoking HOT!

I ordered the medium but should have gotten the small or extra small. I ended up safety pinning it at the top. I am 5,3", 135 pounds 32dd and usually wear a 4 or 6 so figured a medium would be safest but the material is stretchy and so so flattering! Would rent again in a second Just smaller size. 

The fit was perfect, I didn't wear a bra. It was a little too low cut but I pinned it with a safety clip. It was perfect, I got many compliments

Pros: easy to wear, sexy as heck, feeling like million bucks
Cons: definitely need double sided tape or your ta-tas will be all over the place.

I wore this for a night out dancing for a bachelorette party. as many other reviewers have stated the bottom of the dress gets lose. If I had the backup I would have potentially worn a small. 

Stole the show! Rented this dress for a bachelorette party in New Orleans and it was perfect. Fit like a glove and showed off all the assets. Danced all night with no issues. It definitely turned heads all night long. 

Fit like a dream. V cut is deep, but not J-lo belly button deep. I did wear double sided tape with the dress, although with my average bust size and perfect fit of the dress it more than likely wasn't needed. Wore for a night out in Vegas and it was a show stopper! Would def recommend and more than likely rent again or buy for myself!!

I wore this dress for my anniversary in August, I am 5'3 and wide at the bottom and small at the top. Therefore my only issue was the top but nothing a little fashion tape couldn't fix. It didn't ride up at all fit me like a glove. Would rent again and again absolutely love this dress,

I. Love. This. Dress. It fit incredibly true to size and didn't ride up or really shift around at all, I attribute that to the thicker material. The top, as you can tell, isn't shy on cleavage so I also ordered the Braza Reusable Adhesive Clear Reveal Bra that came with some double sided tape and with that I was set for a whole night of dancing in Vegas. I got a ton of compliments and felt all-around amazing in this dress. I highly recommend it for a night out. 

I wore this dress to Vegas for my birthday and loved everything about it.  It is definitely more revealing than I would typically wear but it was perfect for Vegas!  I ordered the Small and XS and ended up wearing the XS because it was a little shorter and I liked the tighter fit.  The dress was very comfortable and the material was thick enough to hold everything in place.  I would definitely order this dress again or recommend to others.

I really loved this dress. I wore it for a fun weekend in Vegas. It is bodycon-ish material, so it hugs every inch. The plunging neckline was sexy as hell. I'm only 34C, so I wasn't busting out and my cleavage was tasteful. Also the cut-outs add another aspect of sexiness. I'm also tall, 5'11", and I didn't feel like the dress was too short. The length balanced out the deep neckline. I did use fashion tape, to ensure everything stayed in place. The dress was a hit with my husband!

EDIT:
I rented this dress a second time. A hit again! Definitely recommend!

Super sexy and fun. Tons of compliments. Very very comfortable! Did not have a problem with nip slips- the fabric stayed in place and moved with me. 

Really comfortable and really sexy. Perfect for a night out in Vegas. I wish I could have kept it! 

Super stretchy so I would size down. Perfect lbd for Vegas and hides any belly bulge. Loved

This dress is soooooo hottttttt. You'll feel like a bombshell. It's low cut so you'll need some double sided tape for your sanity. I'm very small chested and I had just the tiniest bit of room. Will def rent again. 

This was my back up dress because there was an issue with my first choice. This dress was soooo comfortable. It did ride up a little bit but it wasn't too much of an issue. It's cut a little too low cut for my taste so I wore a black lace bandeau underneath and felt a little better about it. I recommend doing your hair and makeup and putting your deodorant on after you pull the dress over your head.  

I loved this dress!! The fabric is thick and smoothing. The V is deep but didn't budge all night long with some double-sided tape (no bra or petals needed). The length was perfect too, hitting just above my knee which I think balanced out the openness of the neckline. I would definitely rent again!!

This dress is my favorite RTR rental thus far!  It's slimming & sexy with light compression; I felt totally comfortable with the deep plunging neckline.  I wouldn't recommend this for someone who is extremely busty.  But I'm a small side 36 c /size 10 bottom.  This dress was absolutely perfect.  Also it's great for ladies with wide hips & a booty.  Plenty of stretch it feels much like a Herve Leger bandage dress

Ordered this for date night with my husband - dinner and a concert. Incredibly comfortable and flattering fit. I was able to wear the deep u-bra I got years ago from Victoria's Secret with this to give the girls a little lift. As other reviewers suggested, I needed double sided tape to keep the neckline in place, and the neckline is a bold one, but I loved the overall effect. With the knee-length hem, it's daring and sexy but still classy. The fabric was very stretchy and substantial, but not nearly as thick as a Herve Leger so it doesn't have the same Spanx-type effect as those dresses. I wore the medium and it was a fantastic fit - I have a muscular/athletic  build and wide shoulders at 5'7" and presently 158 lbs. The small would have worked but would not have been as comfortable and relaxed over any lumps or allowed me to enjoy dinner as much. My husband loved it - said to "give it a 10, 10, 10" as a review. 

This dress have more sweater material,( just a little  bit stretch) & on the warmer side, but it was cool summer  evening & it was perfect . It was sexy & classy

I rented this for a girls weekend in Vegas.  I had just had my second child 8 weeks prior and was a little nervous about wearing a tight dress.  The material was thick enough to hide flaws, I didn't wear spanks but you could, and the cut was revealing but balanced out by the length so I didn't feel slutty in it.  You definitely need fashion tape or you will have nip slips.  I got lots of compliments in it.

I loved the dress, wore it for my bachelorette party, super sexy. Just watch for nipple slip, it may happen often. But the dress, a stunner ! 

This dress was a really soft material that had a nice stretch but wasn't suffocating. This dress was incredibly comfortable which isn't normally something I can find in a vegas clubbing dress that is super sexy. 

The dress was very comfortable with a good stretch material. Neckline was wider than I was expecting, but nothing a little dress tape couldn't fix. I received compliments all night on this dress! 

Great rental!. The dress is very comfortable and an easy wear; very figure flattering! The fabric is a little heavy, it may not be the best summer rental. 

This dress was so comfortable. It's a really great dress!!

Very tight but comfortable dress. Perfect for a night out in Vegas but you may need some fashion tape on the chest area. I didn't wear any, but if I had been dancing I definitely would have needed it. Otherwise loved this rental. 

Loved this dress! Probably my favorite out of the three I rented for my bachelorette party. The black is flattering and the material is stretchy. I am between a 6 and an 8 so I went with the medium and it worked out well. It's not too short, however the top is very low cut. Some people were complaining about their boobs falling out but I have a small chest so no problems there! (Excuse the bathroom photo here- but I needed a full shot. The white tag on the shoulder was not part of the dress)

I ordered a S and a M thinking the medium would be the one I would wear.  I'm pretty tiny on top so I had to go with the small so I wouldn't have any nip slips in this dress.   I still wore double sided tape just to be sure!  Cause this deep V is DEEP, in all the right ways!

Very low cut with thin fabric. Pasties and fashion tape needed to avoid slips 

Only this is bc my boobs are no big the dress kept kinda riding up the slits in the side look begged then they are in person but it's a great dress nice thick fabric 

All other reviewers are correct that this is very revealing! I wore the L as the M was unavailable and it definitely was stretched out in the chest. I actually wore a black lace bandeau and you can see in the picture and felt way more comfortable- I knew I would be pulling it up and adjusting it too much if I had just taped it.

The girls were definitely on display. I'm not busty but this dress had my boobs front and center. Glad I read the reviews and sized down as this dress definitely runs on the larger size. At first I was worried that I should have ordered a medium like I normally do as it was a little difficult to get on but once on it was very flattering to my curves. I wore a bra with this dress but still had to pin up the straps a bit to make it a little less revealing. Only downside is the dress rode up quite a bit ( for the women with larger bottoms)  and I found myself pulling it down ever so often. Either way it was perfect for a party in a lounge but I wouldn't choose it for a more formal event. 

This reminded me of a Bebe dress that was a size too large and slightly too long. If you're small chested, go a size smaller. The fabric is very flattering and forgiving, however, the flare at the bottom is killing me. I'd consider renting again in a smaller size. 

Lovely dress, runs a little big so size down. I think sizing down would also reduce the risk of wardrobe malfunctions! 

Nip slip, must be taped. Stretched out or too big.

I rented this dress to wear in Las Vegas! It would have been perfect if I didn't have big boobs. I mean, if they had been perky boobs it would have been great. But after having nursed two kids and gained and lost weight, they just need more support than the dress had to offer. So all in all, the dress was lovely, just not suited for my upper half :) also, excuse the grainy photo... it's a screen shot of a video I sent my girlfriends for their opinions! 

This dress is definitely an attention grabber. ;) I rented this for our second anniversary date night, but only ended up wearing it to drinks before our dinner reservations. I forgot my fashion tape and there was just no wearing this dress for a prolonged period of time without securing the girls.  I ended up changing into my backup, which was sad because I did like this dress a lot. Definitely runs large, I am still carrying some baby weight and I fit into a small with room to spare. I would rent this again, probably for Vegas or NYE. 

I feel like it was loose on my chest, because I am fairly flat. But I bought some fabric tape from Target for $6.99 & then I didn't have to worry about it all night. I glammed it up with gold accessories.
