Cute for summer, runs large
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
This was my backup dress, so I only tried it on at home. Cute dress that is great for pear shape body. I did think it ran a little bit big and slightly long in the middle section, especially for ladies with a shorter torso. If you're deciding between two sizes, I would pick the smaller one, unless you are larger on top. Great dress for a shower or date!

I rented this dress for a horse race in Virginia. I knew I had to get something super summery and southern. The fabric was beautiful- heavy silk and the beading was wonderful. Great fit too!

Broke the typical little black dress trend and felt lively all night.
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
Gorgeous color. Such a fun dress, wore it to a spring wedding and complimented throughout the night. The beading is just enough so you don't need a necklace but can wear cute dangly earrings. I loved the cut of the dress. I'm 5'5 120 and I usually wear a size 2 and this fit perfect. I wear a B cup and the top of the dress was just right, I noticed others reviewed it was tight in the bust, I would expect that for anyone above a C i think. It has a V neck and back but just enough where you can still wear a bra under the dress. This was my first rental and have been hooked on RTR since!

I wore the Citrus Candy Cane Dress as the hostess of a themed Christmas in July party. I felt like a fancy 1950's housewife. I received compliments all day and night about the classy style and flattering cut of the dress.

This dress is great for a curvy, hourglass frame. The cut flatters a large bust, small waist, and large hips, and it hides a tummy. Plus, the stripes are in all the right places, and they go in the exact right directions!
This is my first experience with Rent the Runway, and I will definitely be back.

Fit well and was a fun look for my bridal shower luncheon. Paired it with simple gold and pink drop earrings, as the neckline is already colorful, and nude pumps. Fits true to size (order one size down as a backup). I normally wear a 4 or 6, but the 4 fit me since I am a bit smaller on top. Perfect for a curvy or hourglass figure.

This dress is very well made. The fabric is high quality and the embellished neckline is very pretty. The bright colors are very cheerful. It is comfortable too! I rented the 6 and the 8 and wore the 8 because it was snug in the bust area. I'm always an 8 in Lily P.

Fun dress for a resort casual event!
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I wore this for my fiance's alma mater fundraising event. The dress code was "resort casual" and the first thing I thought of to wear was a Lilly Pullitzer dress in a fun color. This dress is just my style.
I am usually a 0 or a 2 in dress sizes, and since this is fitted at the top and flared out at the waist, I figured a 0 would fit because my hips are larger and my bust is small. I was right and the dress fit almost perfectly. It was little tight around my arms but the size 2 was way too big around the waist and bust. It was comfortable while sitting or standing and I felt great in it. The dress was beautifully made and came in great condition! I wish I could have kept it!

I rented this dress for a date party and absolutely loved it! I got compliments on it all night. Lilly dresses are usually pretty true to size and this wasn't an exception. It flares out a lot so if you have larger hips like I do, it's not an issue- I would say when picking out a size just try to fit your top!

The tighter fit on top and loose after the waist is the perfect fit for curvier girls like me!! The beaded vneck was the perfect accent, and didn't go down too low. I didn't need any accessories; the dress was perfect without them!!

Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this for a horse race in Virginia that my company attended for a social event. Love the fit and flare shape because I have larger hips and this helped to hide those. The only con is I have a very long and skinny waist and I feel like where the dress hit me was a little too high and could have been more flattering in that aspect. The 4 was too large through the chest and waist so I went with the 2. Got a lot of compliments and overall I would rent it again!

I liked this dress, and it fit pretty well. I think my main complaint is I just didn't "love" the way I looked in it, but I think that was more me than the dress itself. I would recommend this to other women.

Festive and Fun!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress to a Bridal Luncheon at a Garden Cafe. It was the perfect dress for the occasion. I wore the size 2 and it fit beautifully. I liked that the dress has lingerie straps, so you can wear a regular bra without the straps sliding out. The fabric is pretty thick, but I was still perfectly comfortable during our pictures outside in the 85 degrees and humid weather. I liked wearing this dress and received many compliments on it!

This dress was perfect for the "striped" theme bridal shower I co-hosted with some girlfriends. It's the perfect summery, yet dressy dress. The fabric is heavy and nice, not just another flimsy sundress. And the fit was perfect. I got lots of compliments and loved how comfortable it was!

cute for day time
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size

Got it as my backup dress for my wedding rehearsal dinner. Ended up wearing it to the salon the day before the wedding for massage/mani/pedi and running errands.
Pros: awesome colors, very nice fabric, and detailed beading at neckline. Felt good on and thought it was flattering without being super revealing.
Cons: Was a little longer than I would have liked (new it would be prior to ordering) but was cute for day time affair, I would consider it to be a little too frumpy for any other formal occasion.
All in all, cute dress for spring/summer :)

Summer Sparkle!
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress is cute + perky, perfect for a summer wedding. The cut is very feminine and classic, with a full skirt and v-neck. All it needs is a pair of sparkly earrings to coordinate with the sparkly beading along the neckline. A great dress for a wedding, since it still looks cute when you switch to flip-flops (or bare feet) by the end of the night!

Love, love, LOVE this dress!!

The top is perfect for those with small chests and the skirt is a very flattering A-line. The shape isn't overwhelming on petite frames like I was worried it might be, although I'd suggest wearing heels if you are under 5'3 to help balance the bottom of the dress. The angle of the stripes is very slimming and the embellishment is the perfect complement to the rest of the dress. Minimal jewelry is necessary. After returning, I have been scouring the internet for this dress in my size since I loved it so much and cannot find it ANYWHERE. Definitely one of my favorite RTR options.

As always, the quality of this Lilly dress was fantastic. The only reason it didn't get five stars is that the beading was starting to come apart a bit. But not enough to make me not wear it. It is the perfect length for a family event and makes your waist look small because of the empire cut!
