The fit was perfect. The material was amazing. I wore this to a 50th birthday party, but put a jean jacket over it and booties. It looked great, but without the jacket it was stunning. If you can rent this for anything... I would. Received so many compliments. I am 5'9' and 147 pounds. Tiny bit short but still perfect 

This was very fitted on top.  The dress showed a lot of cleavage.  The material was so thick I was able to wear with no bra.  I have a big chest 34DD so I was a little uncomfortable busting out.  I'm not sure if the next size up would have worked. The dress was very short on me I'm 5'8".  I would rent again but I wish it were about 2 inches longer. A real standout.

5'3" hem was 2" knee. Low neckline but still conceals the breasts. Wear with nipple pads or no bra. Waist is really fitted no stretch. Lavender looks nice on all skin tones. Silky fabric. Lightweight and breathable. Panels help slim the sides. 

I'm a RTR veteran, and this is hands down the coolest dress I've ever rented. I'm a little bigger on the bottom, and the A-line hid everything perfectly. The tighter part of the waist was high, just under the bustline, so it doesn't hug any pooch around the tummy area (I did wear spanx). I think you have to have the right top shape to pull this off; I don't have any bust whatsoever (size A), so even though the top COULD gap a little if I really hunched over, nothing was ever in danger of showing. I do think this dress would look a lot different if you have a large chest. For me, it hid all the areas I wanted to hide, and showed a little sass at the neckline which I loved. A FAVORITE!!!

There are no cons to this dress it is so beautiful and the material is fabulous!

I would love to buy this but can't justify the cost!! No bra needed. 

This dress is amazing on, but it has to fit. I tried on the EU44/US6 and it felt like an 8L. I wasn't holding much hope for the Eur42/US4, but it was perfect once zipped up. I definitely recommend getting the back up size and it depends where you are larger when picking which size back up dress to order.  It's the most fitted from under the breasts to under the waistline detail, but not at all uncomfortable for me. I wore a Nubra and did have to watch that the edges didn't poke out, as its cut very low, but the length and print make it sophisticated and not sleazy low. I have broad shoulders and wider back (for my size) so I didn't have much trouble with the torso being too long. 
I'd rent it again in a heartbeat! 

My original selection was not available so I chose this dress as an alternative. I felt like a million dollars in this thing. The quality shows. I got so many compliments and looks. I was able to wear a bra but I had to make sure the bra I wore was really low cut. I could have gone down slightly in size but not much. The waist is fitted but I have a very hourglass shape with a very small waist and a large hip area so this dress accommodated my body. I would recommend this dress. I wish I could own it. I saw another review on this dress stating a full figure might have to size up but I liked showing a bit of cleavage. 

What a perfect spring or summer dress - the colors on this are amazing and the quality is exceptional. Love the sheer detailing at the bottom - it adds interest without being too showy. The dress fit fairly snug throughout, and had a low neck. Would not suggest for women with larger busts, unless they so up a size or two. 

I have unlimited so I am lucky enough to be rent the runway spoiled! This dress wasn't one of my personal favorites but it did fit well and did the job (date night outfit). Material is heavy and premium which is nice! 

This dress is beautiful and fit perfectly everywhere except the arms/chest. It gapped so much that you could see most of my bra all night (which was unfortunately neon orange and the floor was lit with black lights). I think even if you had bigger arms or a bigger chest, it would still show very obviously. I did rent an 8 instead of my usual 6 since that's all that was available, so maybe a smaller size would have resolved this issue, but it was very upsetting because multiple people commented on it rather than complimenting me or the dress. The 8 had extra breathing room without looking like it was too big, so I at least enjoyed being able to eat and drink without having to worry about bulging out.

Wore it to a party and got lots of compliments but definitely low so couldn't wear day wear or anywhere else. However, I added a tank top under it and wore it with sandals for day wear and it was cute that way too 

I've admired dresses by this designer for a while (years, really), but j never had the courage to try one. I'm more traditional, usually. But I'm glad it tried this. I'm a huge fan of lightweight fabric, generally. But in this case, the structure my nature of this fabric was a big bonus. The neckline is looow, but the extra support from the fabric made me feel more secure. The colors are also quite lovely. It's feminine, but a little daring. 

This dress is gorgeous and very well made. It's about knee length on me (5'4" wearing size 40). The top was a little bit big and low so I needed a cami but you could go braless if you wanted. 

This dress is far more beautiful and detailed in person that the picture would suggestion.  Wonderfully constructed.  It is fun and fits an hourglass figure perfectly.  Super flattering.

The fit was perfect and it will look great on any body type!

Amazing dress! Well made, worth the designer name. Loved it! Fit perfectly! I wore a cami under as it was too low cut for work.

This dress was so so beautiful but unfortunately I could not wear it. The waist , torso is for somebody with a small ribcage! I could zip it up but was so small in the ribcage but extra room in the bust and I couldn't wear. I am giving this dress 4 stars bc its beautiful and if u had the right body type you will be so happy wearing this dress! 

I rented this dress for Easter brunch. In fact, I decided to go to brunch AFTER I rented the dress. I just wanted to wear something pretty that weekend. This dress is adorable! 
The fit was very nice! Snug in the waist, which is great because that's one of my best assets. However, I found the narrowness of the shoulders to be unflattering. I'm very small at the shoulders and it just seemed out of whack. But, that's not the dress's fault. It was lovely. And I received many compliments. It was unusual, beautiful, chic.

Fit just right.  Dress is low cut but still looked classy.  I think larger chested women may have concerns with the low cut neckline.  Note the pink skirt detail is sheer, that is, along the hemline AND up the sides!!  Very well constructed dress, especially combining the different fabrics.  Very nice weight to the dress and "lays well," very flattering.  The paisley is VERY interesting, unique and pretty.  I recommend this dress.

This dress is really pretty and different.  I have a 34/36 DD chest. Nothing EVER runs big on me up top and this was a little big. I wish I had also ordered the 42 to compare. Chest is more open/ exposed/ deeper cut than it looks in the stock photo but not to the point that I found it uncomfortable or inappropriate.

This is short and revealing. Maybe best left to a more petite/athletic figure to enhance the beauty of this potentially elegant dress.

I have a booty and a chest and this dress sadly didn't work for me. I'm 180, 5-6 and 36 D with an pear shape body. The dress was too baggy in my chest but landed right underneath my butt.
