Elizabeth and James

This dress is absolutely adorable! Super sexy, but classy with the little skirt! Definitely a little short if you've got a butt! I like showing off the legs so it worked! All the reviews are correct with it running small so I ordered a 10 as my back up(usual 6-8).. and it was perfect!!!! so glad I did because I was pouring out of the 8. I'm muscular with a wide upper body and a 34 D. This dress might not work for larger chested woman! Thank god most of this designers dresses come in a 10 because this is my go to designer!

My body is short and very athletic with a lot of muscle (crossfit/powerlifter). My back and boobs are too large and muscular to fit into the top. Good thing I have a strong boyfriend to help me maneuver myself into it. Loved the dress, loved the color- it just did not fit.

I always love this brand. The dress was very comfortable and it was the right amount of sexy. I loved being covered up on top but showing off my legs!

Very flattering. Loved it.

Fits really nice could have went a size down but it worked! Super thick material but still breathed well and didn't have to wear a bra which was really nice! Would rent again for sure great experience.

I absolutely loved this dress! I wore it to my nursing Pinning Ceremony. I am 5'4" , 115 lbs, and a 32 D and the size 2 fit perfectly. It was a little on the short side so I chose to wear 3 inch heels for the occasion. The racerback style was super flattering and made the classic fit and flare feel updated. The material was thick and draped perfectly. The powdery blue was even prettier in person. I received so many compliments and will definitely rent this dress again!

This dress fit perfectly! I wore it for a rehearsal dinner for a friends wedding. I am 5'2" with an athletic build and it fit like a glove. I loved the fit and flare as it made it fun and flirty. Would rent again or buy!

Love the light blue/turquoise color, and a perfect dress for graduation. I had to be careful with the skirt when it got windy but it was super flattering (even after a late evening Italian dinner) and I got lots of compliments throughout our events!

Thick body con dress that was somewhat forgiving

Wore this for an outdoor wedding in Florida...it was cool and comfortable! The color is stunning in person and the cut is superb unique

Fit was so comfortable! Quality material but not hot at all. It was a bit loose around my waist but I have a child size waist with bigger hips/booty, so that's a common problem for me. Otherwise it fit perfect and was very flattering. I had so much fun dancing in it, I got tons of compliments, I wanted to keep it!

This dress is super comfortable thanks to the stretchy fabric. The fitted bodice and full skirt create the appearance of a very narrow waist. If you stand up straight and keep your shoulders back the neckline is flattering, but as soon as you slouch you'll see those pesky rolls near the outer armpit/upper front bra area.

This is a perfect spring/summer dress. I love how fun this dress is. It's tight fitting up top and loose and flowy through the bottom. Being bigger chested I did not wear a bra with it. I wore this dress to my sisters outside graduation on a hot 97 degree day. The material is on the thicker side, but it did show where I was sweating under my boobs. Slightly embarrassing. I would recommend wearing a bra with it if you're going to be in an outside environment.

Not a great photo...sorry didn't get a good full body shot. I wore this to a very hot indoor/outdoor wedding in Texas and it was perfect. Light weight but heavy enough material to be covering and comfortable. Somewhat loose up top on the 10 so I went with the 8 and was able to go braless, which was great. Loved the unique neckline - got lots of compliments! It was pretty short, but I was prepared for that from other reviews. Overall was a great dress!

This dress was perfect for me! I am 5"4 and 130lbs, size 32DD. I wore a size 4 and it fit perfect. I would recommend this dress for sure, I love all Elizabeth and James quality and fit!!

Loved this dress and my accessories. I am 5ft, 125 lbs and have an athletic body. This dress fit me perfect. I got so many compliments and already ordered my next dress!

Loved this dress!!! I'm usually a 0-2 in fit and flare dress styles, depending on the dress. I took a gamble and went with a 0 because the 2 was out of stock. It was a little snug for my liking, I honestly would have preferred a 2, but I still ended up wearing it and I'm glad I did! This dress was perfect and I received lots of compliments!

This was such a pretty dress. I rented it for a rehearsal dinner in Miami. The cut is very flattering for hourglass shapes and really accentuates your waist. I loved the unique shape of the top. It is prettyyy short however, but it was no big deal for this event. Would rent again!

Loved this dress- fun, fit well, and great for a summer wedding! The material is thick and high quality. I'd recommend this to anyone!!

This was my second E&J rental and the dress fit just as well as my other one. It's a pretty, light blue dress that was perfect for the occasion. The straps/top of the dress make it not so plain. Being short, I'm always conscious of where dresses hit me because it can make me look shorter; this dress hit nicely above the knee while not being short enough to be worrisome of it flying up or anything when dancing. I would rent another E&J dress again in a heartbeat!

I love the cut of this dress and the material is beautiful. The neckline and fit and flare style are very flattering. This does run quite small though. I ordered a 0 and a 2; I wore the 2 but I would have been better off in a 4.

I wore this for a wedding on the beach. The dress fit perfectly, I'm about 5' and 105. The color was very elegant ans the cut of the dress is very simple, yet stylish. I would highly recommend.

I rented this for a bachelorette party in Nashville and LOVED it. Fit was awesome and the sleeve/neckline was fun and different. The color popped as well. Super happy with this pick and got lots of compliments.

I loved this dress! The fit was flattering and the material was thick. I loved the color and think it's a really great dress for a spring wedding or party! I ended up not wearing it because it was a little cold on the day I wanted to wear it, but I will definitely rent again.

Wore the 2 but would have been more comfortable in the 4 for sure!

I loved this dress! It was perfect formal wear for engagement pictures and fit true to size. The fabric was thick and was very comfortable.

Dress fit great! Just a little big in the waist but the flare design hid how big it was. Length was also perfect. As mentioned in other reviews, material is a bit thick but does not make you hot. Overall, very happy with this. For reference, I'm very petite (see profile).

I love Elizabeth & James and more specifically this dress. It fit me like it was tailored to fit my measurements exactly. The dress was so comfortable and had the simple and elegant appearance I was looking for. The material is very heavy, but that didn't bother me. I highly recommend this designer and this dress.

This dress was wonderful! The color is such a nice baby blue and the length is short enough to show some skin, yet still modest. The neckline is high, but not tight around the me know, it's a very soft fabric that's easy to move around in and keeps you cool. My one complaint is that it's a little tight around the bust, but overall a great experience and a great dress.

I ordered the 2 with a 4 as my backup size as I read from previous reviews that it runs small, and I am rather busty for a petite woman. However, I think I could have probably gone for the 0 as the 2 was a little loose but not visibly so. The dress is lined so it's a little on the thicker side, giving it some weight (no need to worry about gusts of wind) and it definitely looked formal enough for such a simple dress. Overall it was very comfortable, and I don't really have anything to complain about.

The dress is extremely comfortable - you won't have to make wardrobe adjustments all night. It's a simple design, but very easy to dress up with a necklace and looked great with a nude pair of shoes. I was able to walk around all day and night with ease. I am 5'3", 130 lbs with a larger bust and straight/narrow body type.

Dress definitely runs true to size. I have always rented Elizabeth and James dresses before so I had a feeling the 4 would be similar to their other dresses. I love this dress! The material was a little thicker, but not too bad for being in the sun at a horse race for most of the day. I didn't need to wear a bra either!

I ordered this dress in a 2 and a 4, as I was anxious about how it would fit based on all the reviews. I am normally a 0 or 2 depending on the brand. The night before my delivery I got an email that the 4 I was expecting wouldn't be coming with my order because it was returned damaged by the previous renter and was SO nervous. Turns out, the 2 fit perfectly! The cut was SO flattering; I loved the color. And the dress was SO COMFORTABLE. the dress is thick enough to hold you in place but has decent stretch, so after a couple drinks and a meal I didn't feel like it was too tight. I couldn't be happier with the whole experience. I'm very short, so didn't find length to be an issue (tho the skirt does fly up a little if you spin while dancing) ...and it did show some sweat after a night on the dance floor (at an outdoor wedding in August) I wish I could've kept this dress forever and I will definitely rent another Elizabeth& James dress soon!

Size up for your backup. I wish I even had the option to go up another size but I had also just come from a week on a family vacation filled with eating! This dress is cute and classic - it flared a bit more than I am normally used to but it was still cute

Fits true to size

Loved the fit and color.

I rented this dress for a rehearsal dinner that was half-inside and half-outside. I absolutely loved this dress and have tried to rent it a couple of afters my first time and it's always sold out in all sizes. The dress is a great color that is slightly out of the norm, but is not too in your face. The neckline and cuts around the arms are sooo flattering! The material is great for a outdoor summer event!

This dress was super comfortable. The material quality was amazing and the skirt flowed beautifully. Got a ton of compliments on the color. Great for any daytime event. This was my first time renting and the whole experience was so easy, love RTR!

This dress is AMAZING! I cannot wait to rent again-- I wish I owned it! I am a petite person so I have problems finding a dress that fits my body in the right way... E&J never disappoints. The color was perfect for an early August wedding and the material is light enough to wear on even the hottest days. Being 5'1 the length was perfect, though I can see how this might be too short for someone taller. If you are a generally small person this dress will look fantastic on you!

I rented this dress for a wedding & it was perfect! The fit is amazing & the fabric has a little stretch to it. I was able to wear a strapless bra with no problem. I got compliments all night! I would definitely rent this dress again!
