Loved the look of this dress but the fit was a little weird. The bodice was very loose and kept sliding down all night, yet the skirt was tight around my hips and I have a hard time walking up stairs, bending over to fasten my shoes, etc. I'd recommend this dress if you're top heavy but I have a normal-to-large bust and a big butt and I felt just a hair uncomfortable in the dress all night.

I rented a 4 and 6 for a wedding and it was extremely flattering!  The 6 was too big so I ended up wearing the 4 even though it was a little too tight around my thighs. The color is beautiful, it's perfect  for a summer wedding!!

Quality dress, beautiful color. Overall great first experience 

The dress fit well and looked great in person. The color is beautiful and it's actually comfortable despite being fitted. Very flattering. 

Loved this dress for my bridal shower, received so many compliments on the unique color and style. Definitely form fitting, but in a flattering way. The back of the dress seemed to have a panel added that messed with the slit a little, but it wasn't noticeable. Already thinking about renting again for my rehearsal dinner.

I loved this dress- it is beautifully made. I got compliments on the dress and color all night and my boyfriend loved how it looked on my figure. I typically wear a size 4 but am glad I got my backup size in a 2 because I ended up wearing it! The 4 looked baggy and a bit wrinkly. By the end of the event the 2 also looked wrinkly and creased which I didn't love. It was also a little too long for my taste. 

Fit true to size. Beautiful color.  I got many complments and even a text from a cross country friend who saw my online picture and loved the dress.  My husband wanted me to buy it. Would definately rent again. 

Im pretty chesty and i thought i could get away w it after reading the reviews, but it was falling off me all night long. It fits normally everywhere else except for the chest (so i couldnt wear the smaller size) which is just massive and i have no idea why. This was my backup dress and i wish i had gotten the one i originally ordered. (Unfortunately most of my 2017 rentals were my backup dress) 

Fits rather snug. I wear a 6 normally but went with the 8. Beautiful blue color and great length.

This seemed less fitted than other reviews suggested. Normally I would wear an 8 or 10 but went up in size because other reviews said it was very fitted. As it happened they only had this available in a 12 when I rented so I took it. Overall very flattering. One annoying detail is the hanger straps RTR inserts in all their dresses are sewed in too high in this one and they tend to make their way out of the top of the dress pretty frequently so that was annoying. Otherwise I loved the dress and fabric. The boning helped with shape and to keep the strapless style from sliding down. Also this was worn to a fall wedding and the fabric was perfect weight. 

I loved this dress, everyone complimented me all night! Only issue was that the dress had been worn many times, with some signs of wear in the construction. Otherwise a fantastic dress!

I rented this for a mid-September wedding. I rented both the 4 and 6. The 4 fit me perfectly, but was a little big up top. It's structured enough that I didn't have to worry about it falling down. My strapless bra showed in the back so I wore a sticky bra instead. I received many compliments on this dress. My only issue with this dress is that it got wrinkly after I sat down for the ceremony. If you rent this, definitely steam it right before wearing it!

This dress was great! I'm a 34D and this is the first strapless dress I've been able to wear without a bra, no slipping no pulling. Fits true to size, you can see in my second photo (post-meal) that the waist looks a bit snug. Since the fabric has no stretch, it stays put, but may be unforgiving for others. I had the best time in it though, and would definitely consider renting again! (Also, this dress showed up with the jewelry and clutch I rented beautifully and carefully wrapped, I felt like a celebrity getting to unpack it all!) 

I rented this as a last minute option for a wedding and was super happy with it! I was nervous it might be too tight given some of the reviews about the skirt part being tight...and while it's true that there is not a lot of give, it still was comfortable enough to dance, sit, etc. It is a fairly unforgiving fabric so I would recommend some spanx or "lady smoothers" as my friend calls them. The sillouette is slimming and classy, and the geometric neckline adds the small something special that it needs. My only issue was the neckline was a little loose/unstructured...it probably could have been solved with some pressing but I was a little bummed RTR didn't send it well pressed. 

Dress was great and comfortable. Tighter around the hips as most bodycon dresses are. I'm 5'6" around 145 lbs. The stomach area was a little loose which I didn't mind. The bust area however was very tight I'm a 34c so I was not able to wear a bra although it appeared to have one built in anyways. Perfect for the occasion! 

This was a great dress. 
I am usually between a 2 and 4 due to my hips so I went with the 4 in order to give me more room when sitting for the rehearsal dinner and so it wouldn't appear to pull. I am 5'8 so the length was great and I matched it with the recommended earrings that were brown and blue jeweled for an extra $5. I usually don't wear a bra being a full C but the fabric was fine enough that you would need to make sure you have some kind of undergarments. 
This was my first experience with RTR and it was a great one! Took a ton of stress off of me and felt great the day of the event. 

This dress is great and comfortable to wear! The top is made for bustier women so double sided tape was my friend. Overall it's a great dress, formal enough for a wedding but still fun and young. I recommend this for larger chested women (something I am not) as this dress provides good coverage!

I was right between sizes so I wore the bigger one to be a little more comfortable. The material was a little wrinkly when it arrived but nothing a little ironing couldn't fix.  It was a little longer than expected but I didn't mind. I loved this dress and felt great in it! Would definitely recommend! 

The dress is a tad longer than expected, but could be my height. I am 5.7 and it fell an inch or two below my knees. It's a very classic look. I ordered a 10, but because of my hips it was too snug. I went with my backup size (12) to feel more comfortable but it was a tad loose on top. I wore a bra with it to help fill it up, but you certainly don't need a bra with the dress. Overall I would definitely order it again!! Highly recommend!

This dress was perfect, especially since it was last minute.. very complimentary color, wonderful fit. Wore the larger size (12) so it could accommodate a strapless bra, but very comfortable. Had it on all night long (5+ hour wedding& reception and then out after) would absolutely recommend and wear again

This dress fit like a glove! First of all, anytime I don't have to wear a bra is a win. The material was thick enough that I didn't have to wear a bra and even though it was strapless, I didn't have to worry about it sliding down or opening on the sides. I have a curvier bottom half so it got a little tight when I had to walk up some stairs, but dancing was super easy. It allowed for optimal fun and my confidence was through the roof! I got SO many compliments on it from the fit to the color. 10/10 would rent again! 

I wore this dress to a wedding & holy cow. I got tons and tons of compliments, and I felt stunning all night long. The fit was true to size, and it was actually quite flattering as someone with wide hips. The fabric was rougher than I'd imagined, but it didn't bother me. The length made the dress feel appropriate for a wedding despite being strapless and quite fitted. My only complaint was the slit in the back was starting to fray- likely just due to wear and tear. It was a little thing but also could be fixed quite easily. 

I rented this for a rehearsal dinner. I wore a size 0 which is what I typically wear. Overall the fit was great, the top was slightly loose but wasn't an issue. I'm 5'0 so I was a bit nervous about the length but it was perfect. Absolutely loved this & got so many compliments 

Comfortable, light weight dress that can easily be dressed up or down. This was definitely bigger in the hips than I expected for a 0. However, the overall fit was great and received compliments all night. 

Loved this dress! I got so many compliments on it. Very classy. 

I ordered this dress and a longer Jill Stuart style w/ the same bust line in the same size (0). They fit very differently.
I love the lines on this pretty dress and was looking for appropriate business wear or a dress for the horse races, depending on the fit. 
Unfortunately it runs really big and didn't hug my body at all. It hung on my frame but the bust line did look crisp and well-made. Would love to wear this if it fit!
Better for ladies with more curves in the hips and booty. Pretty dress and pretty color.


Overall the dress was amazing. I received so many compliments at the wedding. This was not the dress I originally ordered, but am very happy with the turn out! 

I ordered a size 6 and an 8 but ended up going with the 6 because the 8 gapped slightly in the hips, making me appear wider than the 6. The only reason I gave this 4 stars and not 5 is because while the dress looks amazing when standing, it can be slightly uncomfortable when sitting. But overall, I loved the look of it!

I loved this dress and wasn't expecting it to be as flattering as it turned out to be. For someone who doesn't have abs at all, this dress held in everything and looked great from all angles. Paired with heels, i achieved a nice slimming look. Regarding the fit, it was tight around the bust and waist and was looser towards the bottom. A little bit hard to sit in, but what else would you expect from a tighter form fitting dress? Material isn't stretchy but once you are zipped in you are ready to go! 

I was so skeptical at first because this was my first time using RTR, but I'm SO glad this was my first dress!  The pictures don't even do the dress justice, it's just so chic and elegant. ! I'm usually a 2-4, more of a 4, but this 2 fit me like a glove. I wear a small 34B and the bust fit well, but there was still room if I did have a bigger bust. I got so many compliments throughout the night! 

The fit for me was perfect. It was slightly snug at the top but that just meant I didn't have to pull up the dress all day. I expected the material of the dress to be more starchy and stiff but it was the opposite.  I wanted the stiffness to hold the body but instead it looked wrinkly and loose at the bottom. Aside from that it was a great dress. 

Was very comfortable, thicker material and loved the structure and seam detail at the waist that was very flattering. It runs pretty true to size, though I think it's been stretched out a bit from previous rentals. The chest area was a little on the big side, I kept having to adjust it up when dancing.  I wore it with turquoise tassle earings and some simple bangles to let the dress stand on it's own.

I wore this dress to a wedding. I have pear shape body, so I had a little room in the top part of the dress. I wore a strapless bra with padding to help. I paired the dress with silver jewelry and a silver shawl. I liked the boning within the waist of the dress, it created a nice structure. The material was thicker than I expected, which helped to cover the small rolls and smoothed everything out. The material was similar to the texture of an elastic waistband, but not tight, just stretchy. Can't go wrong with this!

Was fairly true to size.  The size 10 was too snug in the chest.  I needed a bra with the size 12 even the dress had adequate boning to support you.

I loved the look of this dress.  Gorgeous color!  My only issue was the top slid down throughout the night, even with tape.  I might have been better off with a smaller size.  If anything I would say the dress runs large.  I'm usually a 6 or an 8 and the 6 was a bit loose for the style.  Also, the dress came slightly damaged at the slit at the back.  Overall, I thought this was a beautiful and unique dress.  It is sexy while still being classy and definitely a stand out!

I'm a true 0, and this dress was a bit big. That being said, it was wearable regardless. I loved the color and the length. I would definitely rent this again! 

Loved the fit. Color was very pretty too! 

I loved the dress and earrings. I wore for a Spring wedding, so the colors were prefect. Received so many compliments the whole night! The material was thick, so no undergarments showed underneath. Absolutely loved the fit-- would definitely recommend!! 

Loved this dress! The color is amazing for spring/summer season. I ordered a 2 & 4. The 2 fit perfectly on the upper half of my body but was extremely tight around my backside and thighs. The 4 fit perfectly, however it was a little baggy in the stomach and bust area since I am smaller in that aspect. 
This dress really showed off all my curves in the BEST way and I got so many compliments on it. Also, very comfortable material as well - easy to dance to!

I ordered this dress for my college graduation. I'm  usually a 6 but ended up wearing the 8 because it was looser around my hips and easier to maneuver in. It was my first order from rent the runway and it looked and felt great in all my photos.
