Beautiful Color!
I absolutely love Elizabeth and James dresses because they use such great material! This dress was a very pretty blue that changed colors depending on the lighting. The material is thick, so it hugs your curves perfectly, but doesn't show too much- therefore its perfect for eating and drinking! I am a little shorter so this length was perfect, but I would be cautious if you are tall.

Standout dress
I loved this dress! It was super comfortable and a nice fun color for a outdoor summer wedding. It is hard to zip up by yourself so you might need a hand for that.

I felt so confident and beautiful in this dress!
The material fits like a glove and truly compliments your figure. It's classy, yet sexy, and was perfect for my date night to a party. I would absolutely buy this dress if I could!

Stylish and chic
As most dresses of this brand - size up because it run small. It didn't have the 'wow' factor I had hoped but it was a nice dress.

beautiful dress for a wedding!
loved this dress! fit very similar to other E&J dresses - very small. I'm normally a 4-6 but rented the 8 after reading the other reviews, and it was pretty fitted. absolutely beautiful color, great for a wedding - received lots of compliments. thick fabric so you don't have to wear a bra. overall great rental!

GREAT dress for Vegas!
This definitely runs small (go up a size if you have hips and/or booty!), but it's a flattering, comfortable dress for dancing the night away. I tried a racerback bra, but the straps peeked out, so I went with a strapless and was thrilled that I still had a smooth silhouette.

This dress was amazing! Fit like a glove and I received tons of compliments!
It is a form fitting dress, so I definitely would suggest renting 2 sizes just to make sure. It was so comfortable and flattering, two words which never really come together.
The blue is gorgeous and perfect for anytime of the year. I wore this to a bachelorette party, and one of the girls even wore it again the following night.
If you want to show off your figure in a gorgeous color this is your dress.

Beautiful dress, not right for my body type
The dress is beautifully made, but did not end up working for me. I am 5'2" and curvy, and it was definitely a dress for someone tall and slim.

Very flattering dress, does run small, but short girls will need to deal.
Wore for my bachelorette, great dress, stretchy and comfortable, vibrant blue color. Ordered 6 and 8 per the reviews, but even though 8 fit better in the hips, could not wear it because the straps were clearly for a taller person, making odd room in the shoulders and neck. Sucked it up (literally, put on spanx) and wore the 6. Got lots of compliments. Could wear with a regular t-back bra, which is a huge plus.

SUPER FUN DRESS
Runs a little small.. usually wear a 0 but my back up size (2) fit perfect. Great color. The slit in the front made the dress. Totally recommend for a night out.

it was a great dress that fit perfectly.
The dress was great, the fabric was thick but not too bad. I tend to get hot and sweaty but this wasn't bad. the fit was great, I'm glad I went up a size because of the reviews. I wore a strapless bra but I wish I didn't, it showed up in pictures but the fabric was thick enough that I didn't have to. the dress did ride up a little and bunch in my stomach but if I pulled it down before pictures it looked good. I like the dress and would get it again. I am 5'7, 36D, ~145 lbs

I want to own this dress!
I wore this dress for a wedding and it was absolutely what I was looking for - a show-stopper! While I usually wear a 2, I found myself squeezing into the 4. It was snug and I might have even been better off in the 6 but it fit enough that I was able to carry it off with confidence!

Elizabeth and James has become my go-to designer.
I rented this for a blue themed party at an art gallery. E&J tends to run small, but it fit perfectly. I loved it, my date loved it, random people we came into contact with throughout the night loved it. The color is bright, but not overpowering. It's definitely short, but I didn't feel like I needed to readjust it all night. And it's just overall super flattering.

Fab dress!!
RENT THIS DRESS NOW! It's super comfy and very flattering. It does run small though -- I usually wear a 4 but read the reviews and sized up to an 8. I was wearing it to a work party so I didn't want it to be super tight. Love it! Wish I could keep it forever!

I got compliments in this dress all night! Gorgeous form fitting dress.
I'm 25, 5'7", and 140 lbs. I wore an 8. It wasn't overly snug, but it fit well and was comfortable. There was room for a bra, but I didn't feel the need to wear one.

Perfect Party Dress!
This was the perfect dress for Ringing in the New Year! Very cute cut. Pretty vibrant color. The dress was skin tight, but I prefer that type of fit. Suggest to order a size up.

I felt gorgeous in this dress!
The dress itself was gorgeous, I like the material because it was forgiving around the midsection. It ran a little tight in the hips but I'm generally wide in that area. Would definitely recommend.

LOVE this dress!
I wore this to my S.O.'s holiday work party & got a lot of compliments on both the fit & color of the dress. It does run small, so the size 2 fit like a glove but at least the material is thick & somewhat stretchy. As long as you don't have a big meal it fits great.. the 4 wasn't available when I ordered, but I'd probably go one size up if you're more pear-shaped like I am. :)

Wore for my senior college homecoming dance. Great dress, great night!
Both sizes I ordered fit, but the 2 was more comfortable than the 0. The color was a bit duller than pictured, which is the primary reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. I would recommend to a friend, but just know the color isn't completely realistic.

Classy figure flattering blue
Pros: gorgeous blue, flattters figure, well made material. Loved this dress! Wore to a fancy dinner. It was a perfect fit for me. I'm 5'8" 140lbs athletic build. 36B, 27 waist, 36 hips. I would buy this dress!
Cons: make sure you have a strapless bra or one that has narrow straps at the front.

I rented this dress for homecoming and it was perfect
the dress fit just the way I wanted. I was nervous about ordering a 2 because people said size up but the next size available so I had to bite the bullet and hope for the best, and it was perfect! if you want it to not fit as tight definitely size up but if you want a tighter fit go for your normal size. the dress doesn't have much stretch to it but just enough for it to be comfortable.

Size up when you order this dress!
I rented the size 4 for a wedding. I wanted a size 6 for my back up but unfortunately it was unavailable for my event. I was hopeful that the 4 would fit me but unfortunately it was too small. Definitely go up a size, and even order the size above that for your back up. I felt that the material looked cheaper in real life which was pretty disappointing. Maybe the dress I received was a little more worn/faded than others in the RTR inventory. I'm not sure if I would rent this dress again (in my correct size) due to the look of the material.

Perfect dress for senior year Homecoming dance!
Rented this dress for my daughter's senior Homecoming dance. The theme was Hawaiian Luau and the vibrant blue dress was perfect. It is very tight, but once you get the dress zipped, the fabric magically relaxes and fits like a glove. The length was perfect and the dress was easy to move and dance in. Would highly recommend!

Fit like a glove!!
I wore this dress to my parents anniversary party. The fit of the dress was amazing. I felt like I was sewn into the dress. The color wasnt as bright as the blue on the model, so I was a little bummed about that and the slit hit me at a different spot too. But overall, pretty good rental!

Love this dress, fits like a glove.
I absolutely love the way Elizabeth and James dresses fit and this dress does not disappoint. I received several compliments and felt comfortable all night. It is on the shorter side, but still elegant enough for a wedding. I attended an outdoor wedding in 104 degree heat and was sweating by the end of the ceremony but nothing soaked through (thank god!). I wore this dress with Elizabeth and James Windrose Pave Cuff, Elizabeth and James Valencia Lariat Necklace, and Ella Carter Ryan Earrings (all rented) with nude wedges and a nude purse with gold chain. Highly recommend this dress for any occasion really. Easy to dress up or down.
Heads up for ladies with a little more bust, go a size up. The dress is still form fitting but will give you a little more room up top.

I'm normally a 2, but read the reviews and knew to go a size up. I loved this dress so much! The fabric was very nice and a little thick, really well made. I'll probably be renting it in the sangria color for another event.

AMAZING! I felt stunning all day and night! As always, I received endless compliments!
I am normally a size 0, but this is a pretty snug dress so I sized up and went with my backup size 2. It was much more comfortable. The length was great and the material is thick and sucks everything in! I was so sad to return this one - such a hit!

Perfect for a night out!
I rented this for my sister's 30th birthday in Atlantic City. I usually have issues with clothing being too large, but after chatting with an associate, I was told this item ran small. It fit perfectly! The length, the waist, the bust, everything! I highly recommend this dress. It could even be worn to a wedding or a more formal affair as it wasn't too short.
