I felt elegant and very classy in this floaty dress. The top is fitted but not too tightly and I loved the wide neckline and the stylish deep v back. I was able to wear a normal bra which was a plus. The gorgeous skirt is a wonderful thick floaty flouncy fabric that sweeps almost to the floor in the back. I felt like I was floating all night in this dress and got so many compliments. My normal size 8 was not available so I wore a 10. It was just a tad big in the waist so I belted it with a wide belt. It looked fabulous. Would rent this beautiful dress again.

This dress was perfect for my company Christmas party! It was classy and comfortable (the pockets were an amazing surprise!). As I'm pretty short, the high-low concept was sort of lost on me, but it still allowed me to move much more easily than normal. My heels were a bit short so the dress swept the floor just a bit, but overall the fit was lovely. I received so many compliments! Would definitely recommend.

I wore this to a formal wedding. It fit like described. The zipper was very difficult to get up and I almost didn't wear it because we could get the zipper up past the change in fabric. Perfect for the event.

This dress is a beautiful black and navy two tone. Very comfortable to wear and flows beautifully. Its a high low and with a good pair of heels sits just off the ground. I was able to fit the size 6 but the zipper kept snagging so i wore a padded bra with the size 8. Definitely would wear this dress again.

It fits true to size. I wore a 4 and I wear a 4 blouse to work. I worse this to an industry award I got nominated for, and although I did not win the award, wearing this dress was an award within itself. I'm not a compliment-seeker (but I got several) I just wanted to look elegant and award-ready. Mission accomplished. Pros: Elegant. And when I mean elegant, I felt like Audrey Hepburn. Which is great, because I love her style. Elegant is what I wanted, and what I got. All for the perfect price. I've rented since 2014, so my expectations were higher. Cons: The zipper and putting the dress on.! The zipper gets stuck when the fabric changes but is always fixable. I found putting the dress on to be a challenge. Other: I wore this with my hair up and Michael Kors shoes

Fits true to size.

I wore this beaut for a black tie event at the Naval Academy. Very flattering for hourglasses. The only negative was trouble with the zipper - kept catching on the belted area as we tried to zip it up. Saving my pennies to purchase for future events!

Loved dress but if you have big arms don't get this dress. Decided not to wear this dress if you are an apple size woman not good for your middle!

The dress was true to size. The only issue is the zipper is very tough to bring use over the waist band.

Great dress! Received lots of compliments!

The bust is significantly too large on this dress, causing gapping. I tried double-sided tape but that only helped a little. However, I love the color-blocking and the high-low skirt - I got compliments all night. I probably wouldn't rent this again though due to the fit issues.

Had to get the dress temporarily altered - armholes and shoulders needed taken in. Heavy skirt material did not ship well - needed steaming. The night of - felt like a movie star! My husband said I was the best dressed woman there!

I ordered a size down based on other reviews & the fit was perfect. The side zipper was a little tricky but knowing this in advance from other reviews helped.

My mother loved this dress. Though it was so simple, it was elegant.

Rented this dress for a formal wedding in June. Although it's a nice dress. I found the zipper to get into the dress was tough to close when the two fabrics met and the shoulder of the dress kept falling off. I spent most of the day trying to keep from flashing the guest. Honestly wouldn't rent this dress again. Also needed a 2 and not a 4.

Great dress! I was able to go down a size even while 16 weeks pregnant. It was very comfortable and the high low style allowed me to wear this dress even at just 5'1.

This dress was OK. The band is a little snug but wasn't uncomfortable. My reason for not wearing was it flounced out at all the wrong spots. It made my rear look huge and there was too much material in the skirt. It made me feel like a blob. Also, the color difference between the blue and black was hard to see in lower light.

The dress fit perfectly and I received tons of compliments. The only flaw is that the zipper on both size dresses was darn near impossible to zip. Although it wouldn't stop me from renting it again because I loved it so much!

This dress was beautiful. I had plenty of room at the waist to breathe so I skipped the shapewear. I had a little too much room at the arm holes. I tried to use tape to keep them in place and not show the side bra. That didn't work too well but the venue was dimly lit no one noticed. Other than that I felt beautiful for the occasion.

My original choice didn't fit so this was sent overnight and I loved it. The bodice fits tightly and the skirt is luxurious and fully lined. I received so many compliments. I wore this to a church ceremony, christening. It was the perfect dress for the occasion.

I wore this to a black tie wedding last night. I got a lot of compliments on the dress! This is a perfect go to for me and fit my body type well. I rented the 6 and the 8 and the 6 fit me better. There are 2 things about this dress I wanted to share: -The side zip is difficult to zip up. The zipper gets stuck between the top and the bottom of the dress and I needed help zipping it -The belt that separates the top and the bottom is not attached to the fabric of the dress in the front. For me, this belt kept slipping up and would not stay in place. I think some double sided tape would have fixed it. Considering the above- I would definately rent the dress again though!

Fits great! Love the necklace with it!

Perfect fit, I have big hips and it was very flattering. Such a versatile dress, can be worn for cocktail party and black tie. It was my first rent the runway and I loved it!

This dress is perfect for a black tie optional wedding. The high/low cut fell longer on me since I am 5'2'' but that was the look I was aiming for. I paired it 3 inch heels and I did not have a hard time walking in the dress. One big con is that the zipper is very tricky to get up - i needed an extra set of hands. Also the belt doesnt attach to the waist so I used some fashion tape to keep it in place.

I rented this dress for a work gala that I was in charge of planning--because I would be running around all night, comfort and pockets were key for my dress. This dress was perfect! I felt comfortable all night, but also felt both professional and stylish. I received many compliments throughout the night. I am usually a 2 or 4, but wore the 0 in this dress. The zipper is a bit tricky, but not impossible. The belt did not totally stay in place, but that would be easily fixed with a piece of dress tape. Overall, great dress and would absolutely rent again!

This was probably the most comfortable dress I have every worn! The length was perfect and I received so many compliments, I would definitely rent this one again!

Timeless/classic gown! I wore this for a black tie work event. Very comfortable and fit great. Only complaint was the zipper was extremely hard to zip once I had the dress. Other than that, I would totally rent this again.

This is my third time renting from RTR and a smashing success once again. I was looking for a dress that was simple yet elegant and this dress was the winner! Fits perfect. Like most RTR dresses, it does have a side zipper that is very challenging to zip up when going over the "band" of material around my waist. But, with a little patience I was zipped and ready to go! I received countless compliments all night! Thanks RTR! I will be back again!

Dress fit well and it was perfect for my husband's office holiday party.

The size 2 worked great for me: 130lb, 5’6 and athletic build. I rented this dress for a formal military ball. As a nursing mom, I wanted something that I could wear a real bra with and not worry about the straps showing or being uncomfortable. This was perfect. The dress was very comfortable to wear even with the top being form fitting. But, YES, the zipper is very tricky! I rented both a size 4 (size 4 fit great but the 2 fit me more snug up top which I like but I could have worn either one) and a size 2. With both dresses the zipper was VERY hard to zip up or back down. So, it doesn’t matter if the top is very snug or not- it’s just how the zipper is constructed. I was prepared for the zipper issue as I read previous reviews so I made sure to play around with it as soon as I received my dress and not wait until the day of. There’s definitely tricks to finding how to zip it up best so plan ahead is my best advice!! I did not experience issues with the belt like I read in some reviews. It does move a bit but it doesn’t seem to change the look of the dress when it shifted.

I felt so elegant, and my daughter and my dresses looked great together. It could have been the best of nights... but I fell victim to the zipper phantom. When I ordered the dress I actually thought, "no way would RTR still have the bad zipper size 16 out there? Surely it must have been fixed or pulled? Plus with all the dresses they rent surely I wouldn't get the bad zipper." Well... I received the dresses only the evening before the gala because the 16 wasn't available until then and the 14 not at all. I ordered the 18 in the second size & it was like a tent on me! The 16 shipped with the zipper unzipped to the waist? The zipper did not budge! I am now thinking- I have gotten the bad zipper! I called RTR and the consultant told me to try candle wax or bar soap. I had paraffin, and it did the job! I was able to easily zip the zipper up and down easily, but to the waist only? There seemed to be some fraying or material caught in the zipper right where it had been stuck? Since the dress was slightly big on me, I could easily slip the 16 over my head with room to spare, so I didn't worry that it didn't zip all the way down. Well... within the first hour we were there my daughter pointed out the side of the dress was opening along the zipper at the waistband! I don't need to say anymore. So lick there were Camp Kessem family that were quick to help. Counselors took off their name tags to rip the pins off the back. Employees from the Hilton tried everything... We landed up pinning the dress the best we could and I wore my jacket the rest of the evening. If I had worn the original shrug I had planned to wear, we would have had to go home then. I pretty much stayed at our table. The counselors were so great to entertain my daughter. RTR has assured me that they were going to look into the zipper issue with this dress.... I hope it can be resolved because the dress was beautiful!

This dress was perfect for my b-school's formal. Very flattering and glamorous. Received a lot of compliments! My only issue was the sticky zipper. It takes A LOT of strength to get it up, even though the dress definitely fit. Other than that, I loved it!

The high-low made it easy to move around all night.

I rented this dress for my graduation. It was perfect underneath the gown and perfectly fit once the gown came off. Very classy and flattering. Would highly recommend to anybody looking for a conservative yet sophisticated dress!

Very pretty dress that fit true to size. The 2 was out of stock on the date I needed, so I wore the 4. It was a little loose around the neckline, but otherwise fit comfortably. The pockets were a plus. The zipper was a major pain! But here's the solution: Put the dress on, but do not put your arms through the arm holes. Twist the dress so the zipper is in front, where you can more easily pull it up over the belt-line. Once that's done, rotate the zipper back to the side, slip your arms in the holes and then the zipper will slide easily up the rest of the way. The belt rode up a bit during the night, so I would recommend dress tape or a tiny safety pin to keep it in place.

Unfortunately RTR was out of a size 4, but the details said the dress runs a bit small so to order up. I wore the 6 and for the most part, it fit well. Was a little loose in the arms area. Considering that I'm small in height (4'11), the high-low style of the dress was PERFET. :)

I wanted formal but not too formal for a work gala, the high low was perfect! I'm usually a size 2 or 4 and I probably could have worn either in this but I rented a 2 based on reviews. It fit well when I was standing but this particular event included a very long dinner/speeches and by the end the band was getting uncomfortable. If I had to do it again I'd rent the size 4.

Comfortable and easy to wear. Paired with nude heels for a formal wedding in Montreal on a abnormally hot night.

I wore this for my friends black-tie wedding. Pros: As many others have reviewed, this is a very classy yet fun dress. I received many compliments. You can add more style to it with accessories. The fact that you can wear it with the standard bra and have pockets are huge advantages. Cons: The bag of the dress was too long to dance--I stepped on it a few times and almost tripped. The belt was a bit off its place, but I think you can fix with tape. And the zipper... My friends helped me with the zipper and it took us a few minutes to do it. Overall, the cons together takes off one star, but everything else worths more than what it costs.

This dress was so easy to wear. Comfortable yet fashionable. A lot of sweet compliments. #MagicCastle
