Fit true to size possibly a little on the generous side. Comfortable. 

Rented this after reading a review about the color and lace. Loved wearing this for a graduation and got a bunch of compliments. Bought it because it's easy to wear, looks great on my short, hour glass frame and was so easy to wear. On the fence? I'd highly recommend you rent it too. 

Wore this for my baby's Baptism and it felt like the perfect choice. Great quality, great fit. 

Wore this for my daughters baptism.  It was a perfect dress that wasn't too tight and comfortable to wear all day.  I found it true to size.

I rented this for a tropical party and dressed it up with fun colorful earrings. It's extraordinarily sweet and I'm honestly thinking of just buying the damn thing! It's a pretty shade of pale creamy pink. 

Love this dress- so many compliments. Fits more like a shift dress, but I could have probably gone down a size for a tighter fit. Very flattering, and such great detail in the lace. It's more of an off white/ rose gold. I wore it to a nice dinner with sandal heels, but also made it more casual with a jean jacket and boots.

Overall, I enjoyed this dress. The color was a little more peach than pink, which doesn't do wonders for my complexion, but with the right lipstick and blush, it can be versatile. It was a little small for me, I should've gone with the 2, but I was a little heavier at that point as well. 

Very comfortable. The lace is very pretty. 

I loved this dress. I got both an 8 and a 10 (I fluctuate between those) and actually could have worn either. I went with the 10 because the looser fit felt more appropriate for the occasion. 

Pros : really comfortable and the sleeve detailing was beautiful.  Everyone kept commenting on how well made and detailed the dress was.  The dress is a pinky peach color,  which was great for an engagement party right at the end of summer/ beginning of fall.  
Cons : the shape is definitely straight,  almost boxy, which is good for hiding a belly, but if you're very tiny, you might get lost in it.  I honestly liked the shape,  it had a very boho chic vibe,  but can see it not working for everyone.  Overall,  the dress felt like one I've always had in my closet,  I felt super comfortable in it, but still a stand out look. 

Wore this dress for a backyard wedding and our family Christmas card pictures at the beach. Worked great in both situations. The lace is really pretty. There was a small tear on the inside of one sleeve, but it wasn't that noticeable. Recommend as a comfortable but elegant dress.

Felt like a goddess in this lacy number and got tons of compliments. The color is beautiful, the cut is not too long or short, and the fabric is breathable. Comfy! 

Fits true to size. Loved the details on this dress! It was bohemian and airy and a beautiful shade. I received lots of compliments! I hope this dress goes on sale because I'd definitely buy it. 

This was a backup dress as my normal size 10 was unavailable.  It was large but not uncomfortably so, and it did let me eat and drink whatever I wanted!  If I had thought quickly enough, I would have had a size 8 overnighted which probably would have done better.  Beautiful dress, comfortable, and I got many compliments.  I paired it with Rose Gold Alex Earrings and Metallic Clutch and they were perfect complements to the outfit.  I need to mention, though, that although the dress was obviously cleaned, the underarms were still quite smelly.  While no one else said they noticed it, I was very aware of it and wouldn't raise my arms to dance, etc, all night.  Just FYI.

I wore this for my rehearsal dinner and it was perfect! I got so many compliments on it! It was super comfortable and I could have kept it on all day. As always, I really didn't want to send it back. :) My only complaint was that there was a small tear in the lace of the dress, but it wasn't too noticeable.

I'm usually a 6, but the 4 fit perfectly. Got lots of compliments, and was very comfortable for a 12-hour event!

I rented this dress for a winter wedding that was outside down in the Florida Keys.  It was perfect for the temperature and fit me just snug enough in all the right areas without limiting my dance moves out on the dance floor.  It is a timeless design and was sophisticated and classy.

It ran true to size. I'm a 4 and wore a 4. The arms are nice coverage and the length was really good and appropriate for church or formal events. Photographed nicely. My picture here doesn't do in justice. It was so feminine And pretty. 

This dress was gorgeous. I probably should have gotten a 10 because my stomach is a little soft after 3 kids, but some spanx underneath made this size 8 look perfect! I am a music director at a Catholic Church and this was a hit with everyone I saw. 

This dress is so fun and is very chic while still being very comfortable. Perfect Springtime dress. Definitely more peachy in color, but goes great with nude colored heels. I paired the dress with Kendra Scott earrings that matched PERFECTLY! Will definitely rent this one again sometime! 

I can't wait to see what the professional photos look like.  For me what's important right now is something that fits me well since I have gained a lot of weight since I stopped nursing.  I have major issues in the tummy area and I feel like this helped conceal them.  I also wanted to cover my arms and still be sexy and I feel like this dress did both!   

Perfect for my bridal shower! It was classy, comfortable, and made me feel great! After reading reviews and scoping out viewer pics, I went with my original size. I normally wear an 8-10, but the 10 wasn't available. I reserved the 8 and 12. The 12 was too baggy, but the 8 fit perfectly! Very flattering! I would agree that the dress runs true to size with a little wiggle room. Normally I have trouble finding dresses that will zip up past my bust (36D), but I didn't have trouble with this one! I wore spanxs and a normal bra! I paired the dress with strappy nude heels and RENTED the Kendra Scott Rose Gold Alex earrings. Overall win! I'd definitely rent this dress again! 

I got so many compliments on this dress. Flattering and comfortable. Wasn't tight and the sleeves were season appropriate. The 8 and 6 fit about the same, the 6 was just a tad shorter. The color is a little more "peach" than the pictures, it is not so pale. I recommend getting your normal size and a size down. 

I rented this dress for a friend's wedding and it was perfect. I received so many compliments throughout the night and it was so easy to dance and move comfortably in. The color was as previous reviews said, a little more peachy than the picture shows but very pretty. I rented the 6 with a 4 as a backup, both fit well but I went with the 6 as I have a larger chest. This dress was amazing and was an excellent first rental, I wish I could have kept it! 

This was one of my first regular rentals as an unlimited member. I rented a fancy jumpsuit for a party & at checkout I was offered a discount to pick another outfit- hey why not?! As it was my first time regular renting I really did not understand how a 4 day rental worked and, as the stylist threw in an extra choice (which I loved btw! Definitely going to take advantage of the RTR team now) suddenly I had 3 great outfits to wear in 2 days! Thankfully, it was fashion week : b 
When I opened this dress the peachy blush  color sort of shocked me. Not sure what color I thought it was, but my first reaction was that it looked like a dress to wear for Easter or to a spring wedding! But when I tired it on, the cut was wonderful! Wow! Modern & contemporary after all! So I decided to play it down and wear if to our after party brunch on Sunday...at a casual almost pub type cafe with outdoor seating. Perfect for an early fall day with the long lace sleeves! I paired it with black patent studded thong sandals, and a great black funky bag that I bought on RTR's clearance sale : ) threw on my YSL Crystal shades & I was in my hip zone for my east village brunch date. And I got loads of compliments too! 
And while dining I saw a gorgeous young girl walk by in a great blue shift with white lace detailing ....I recognized the dress- and I am excited to try that one too now. I love Rent the Runway! And I love the ease of sending clothes Un-laundered  back or maybe even buying the ones I really love! : ) 

Love this dress! The color is more peachy than pink. I ordered  size 10 & 12, wore the 12. I think I should have gone with the 10, it was a tad large. Beautiful and so comfortable, not too short. Will use RTR again!

Absolutely loved this dress! I wore it as a personal attendant for my friend's wedding. The color is much more blush/coral than the site picture so was just fine for a wedding. It was mid-July but the dress is so airy that I never felt like I had sleeves on or anything. I received so many compliments that night and would hands down recommend this dress!

This is one of my favorite rentals to date! The detail on the sleeves is impeccable--they're bell sleeves without being obnoxious, and the stretch is very comfy compared to other lace-sleeved dresses I've worn. I really like the length--I wore this dress to a pretty conservative Catholic wedding, and felt comfortable both at the church and at the barbecue joint the reception was held at! I can't say enough about the comfort of this dress--even when I gorged myself on mac & cheese and pulled pork, I felt svelte and at-ease. The stretch is great and hugs in all the right places. A perfect dress for a wedding, you'll feel gorgeous!

True to size! I love this dress so much I wish I could keep it. I wore this for late April wedding in Punta Cana and received a lot of compliments. It is a bit warm but it doesn't look like it. I Iove how it's loose in the right places so it hid all my bulge. This is probably my fave out of all the dresses I've rented. Super classy and just a non-ordinary beautiful dress! 

Beautiful dress! Very true to size and had great stretch. I wore this for my bridal shower and revived so many compliments! 

I received so many compliments on this dress.  First of all, the color is more vibrant than it appears on the RTR site.  It's a beautiful soft coral/peach.  Perfect for a bridal shower - which is where I wore it.  The length fell below the knee for me, but if you are taller it would hit just at the knee.  The sleeves are really pretty. A delicate looking lace, but not itchy or likely to snag.   I recommend this dress for a woman of any age.  The only potential negative was that I ordered an 8 instead of my usual 6. So the dress was a little bit big on me. That was my error though.  Even though it was a little bit big, I still think it looked fine. 

I got this dress for my cousin's wedding, and it was perfect! It's not tight-fitting, which takes off body stress (although I did go with a really padded bra), and the light pink color is so pretty. Makes a soft and elegant look. Crazy comfortable as well. I unintentionally wore the same color as the bridesmaids, but my dress was 10x cuter than all of theirs, so that was a definite plus. I absolutely recommend!

This dress was  absolutely perfect. I have been using rent the runway for nearly every event and have no complaints. The dress came on time and in perfect condition. This dress is so flattering , the perfect length, and the material is stretchy and breathable and definitely not clingy. I would definitely size down as a back up, I ended up wearing  the 10 for length purposes and for more room in the shoulders. You can also wear any kind of bra underneath which was great.  The lace is intricate and the color is very bright, was perfect for a late summer wedding. Received so many compliments, I would 100% rent again! 

Fits perfect. The overlay is peachy blush, not cream!

I want to buy this dress! It was fantastic. I received compliment after compliment all night. The color is more peach than any picture I've seen, and the dress is so soft and well made. Both the 6/8 fit well, I honestly could barely tell the difference b/w them. I went with the 8 b/c the arms were a little looser. I'm rather short/round and have a difficult time fitting my arms into sleeves since they're not long and a bit on the chunkier side. Would consider renting this dress again. If you're thinking about it, get it!! I'd recommend going a size down for back up dress. It's great for busty/hippier ladies as there is stretch. 

The size 6 was way too large in the top but I usually fit a small the 4 fit like a glove. The color was.  Gorgeous pinkie/ peach, enough stretch to give and a slight flair at the bottom of the arm to make it pretty and very comfortable. I was the Maid-of -Honor and it was 105 degrees but I was fine all day. 

I fell in love with the delicate lace of this dress! I loved the color in person as it was much more vibrant and closer to peach than the cream. The fabric had a great deal of stretch, making it comfortable and easy to wear. While it does have give, it is still fitted in the hip area and I would size up for backup if you have more full hips. Overall, I loved this style and think it would be perfect for a bold bride to wear for her bridal shower.

I wore this cute, lace dress to a dance. It is very comfortable and easy to move in. It is not form-fitting at all; plenty of room on the arms, waist, and hips so I was able to go down a size.  The color is a pretty light peach. I received many compliments :)

Wore at 28 weeks pregnant - sized up 3 sizes from normal. Didn't love this dress - material felt cheap and I think it had been dry cleaned too many times because the liner hung below the lace dress. Seemed to run small - I normally only need to size up 2 sizes from my pre-pregnancy size. Color is more nude than pink.

This was not my original choice but a backup that was sent when my first choice was damaged. It is an absolutely beautiful dress with stunning lacework. However the dress felt a bit mature for me personally (my mother of course disagreed!) I can see how it would have been more appropriate at a different occasion than my graduation. That being said, it was a comfortable dress that was easy to wear and received many compliments.

This dress went perfectly for a beachy themed engagement party. Did I mention it was my own party too? :) The peachy color wasn't too saturated and the lace design made it very unique. Especially if you have a bit of a tan, the sleeves and peachy color accent it lovely. The sleeves were comfortable and your skin peeks through nicely. Truly, this dress runs to size; however, there is no room if you are a hippy lady. (like me) That's why I have it as running small, because if you are curvy like me, you will absolutely need to size up. The dress wasn't too heavy and worked well in an air conditioned venue. (outside on a hot day may have gotten to me eventually) It was a bit short for me, considering I had to stand and sit often. (but I am also very tall) Just some thoughts to consider, but overall very lovely dress that made our day special! 

I rented this dress to match my 11 year old. She has chosen a lace dress of the same color. 

Loved this dress and it did match perfectly! 

This dress is forgiving but not exactly flattering at certain angles.  
Up close it is beautiful, however, it lacks shape from farther away.
Also, the material was cheaper for being a designer dress.  

I rented this dress for my bridal shower. I usually go between a size 2 and 4 for dresses. Both sizes fit, but the 2 was tighter on my stomach than I wanted, so I wore the 4. The sleeves are more see through than the rest of dress, which I didn't expect. It fit well and was very comfortable, but still not super flattering in the tummy area. The fabric is pretty delicate and seems like it would snag easily, so I was a bit worried opening gifts but it was fine. Very pretty light coral color.

A beautiful dress.  Color is gorgeous.  Very forgiving and comfortable.  Wish RTR would add more dresses like this for women who are young at heart if not in years.  

Color is peachier than photo shows but it is so pretty. Lace is great. Zipper is a little sticky. I was comfortable. It's nice that the sleeves aren't lined, keeps it cooler.
