Chose this for work & everyday. For work: Had to use a safety pin to keep the top appropriate but in datenight (pictured) it was the right amount of sexy. I'm 5'4 and the length was perfect for flat sandals but I also could've worn wedges. Flattering on my hourglass figure, will definitely rent again & would've purchased if it arrived with tags. The slit (or the way the dress folded over itself) created a sweeping motion when I walked which made me feel fancy!

Wore this to my cousin’s wedding in the Hudson Valley July 2023. My favorite flower is the sunflower so as soon as I saw this I had to pick it (pun intended)! I have scoliosis so my belly looked like I was pregnant, but looking beyond that, I loved it! Wore a cami underneath because the cut was a bit deep on me.

Wore this as a guest to a friend’s summer wedding shower and it was perfect. Really flattering but comfortable and lightweight 

Chest area was a little too big on me but loved it otherwise 

I love v necks but they usually don't fit my chest. This one was perfect and fabulous colors. Perfect mountain chic dress.

Comfortable and cute. High slit adds drama. Flutter sleeves are flattering. Had to add a cami underneath. 

If you are in between sizes, I would go down
Beautiful dress. Well made
Large in the waist

Rented this for vacation in Sedona and it's a perfect vacation dress!

There was sticky tape left on the dress from the previous renter. I still had to wear a tank underneath it because the v is deep. 

Otherwise, loved the dress. Flowy and pretty. 

Like others have said, the neckline is VERY deep. But it didn’t seem to bother me. The photos here are without a bra, which I preferred the look of. Wore it to a casual gathering with a bra and the cups kept peeking out. 
Perfect for San Diego fall!

I loved the colors and print of the dress for a fall wedding! I paired it with a brown suede cropped jacket and brown boots for the cooler weather. 

The only cons were the fit and the high slit. The dress can blow wide open if it's a windy day so I had to hold it down at times. The chest area was also too big for me so if you are more busty, you shouldn't have a problem. 

This is a fun, flowy dress. I have a small bust so I needed to pin it up top. The skirt also can blow WIDE OPEN on a windy day as I learned on a walk to dinner! I added another pin at about knee height to prevent that, so the only reason it gets 4 stars from me is due to the modifications I needed to make. 

I'm 5'10. 160lbs. curvy in the hips/butt. I wore the 8R very comfortably... almost with room to spare bc the tightest part is right under the bust line/at ribs. Low/deeper cut cross in bust line and I pinned it closed to comfort. Wonderful that you can wear a regular bra, though and eat a meal comfortably without feeling constricted. The dress is very forgiving on the lower half. Nice and flowy. Great for transitional weather. Pretty pattern too. Hubs liked it!

True to size and figure flattering.  Might be over exposing for buxom ladies but lovely plunge and cinched waist.  
Love the boho print and flowy style

Received many compliments on the dress during our family holiday photo session. I ended up wearing the 2 even though with Madewell i am usually a 4. It does gap on the top but sizing down seemed to help. I am sure if you use double stick tape it would be fine but I didn't really care. Overall, great dress! Would love to actually buy! 

The color and pattern were beautiful the material was light and flowy and the length fit, even though I'm super short 

Wore this to baptism. So comfy, lovely muted red color. I'm 5'-11" and A cup. Length was great, bust was a little roomy. Great transition dress from late summer to early fall. Light weight fabric, wore on 80 degree day and felt cool and breezy. Thanks again rent the runway!! XOXO 

Cute dress. Very long wore with heels to show a bit of ankle. Had to wear with cami due to being a bit low cut. 

Good for every day. Nice fit. No complaints!

Very cute and comfy, received lots of compliments. Had to pin the chest though; it would have been too revealing otherwise.

Wonderful, flowy dress that looked beautiful in fall foliage! 
Dress is cut low, but was totally fine with secured with double sided tape. Sleeves are cute. Loved wearing it :) 

Loved the easy silhouette of this dress. The length was perfect with flat sandals, and I'm 5'2 wearing size 2. The only issue is the torso was too long, causing the neckline to be quite low. 

Am anywhere from a 2-6 depending on the dress. Since people said the top runs large, i picked a 2 and it fit my large ribcage perfectly. Beautiful colors and comfortable light fabric. Yes, it’s not super fancy, but on me at least it’s pretty flattering.

Love the print, cut and length! perfect for a dinner or nice event! Its a bit low cut but not too bad if you dont have a very large chest.  Keeping for a while to wear again for sure 

So flattering! It looked classy, was easy and flowy, and felt comfortable all at the same time. Wore it 4 times!

I needed to wear a green camisole underneath (very low cut in the chest area), but it fit perfectly and I received many compliments on it when I wore it to my brother’s rehearsal dinner. Perfect for Fall! 

Loved this dress!! The length was perfect - I'm 5'1" and wore this dress perfectly fine with flats. Only complaint is the top ran a bit loose for those with smaller chests. I had to use dress tape. 

Love this dress. Had to wear a cami under or pin it to keep from showing too much boob. 

Fit: True to size but a little on the more fitted side. the sleeves were very??? but nothing too detracting. 

Logistics: Thinner material, doesn't wrinkle easily. It's got a pretty high side slit that could get awkward in the wind. It was also the perfect height to almost trip on while walking around for me (at 5'3") 

Garment details: Overall I really thought it was nice but I don't think it would be a 'go to' to rent again

Had to pin the bust to keep my chest from falling out

I LOVED this dress. I got a 10, but truthfully I could have gone down to an 8. There was a little space in my waist area. I definitely had to wear a cami up top. Not sure if it was just too big or if I'm too busty (34DD), but there was no way to wear it that didn't show my bra. The slit is something to be aware of, as well. I didn't mind it much, but I just had to be extra careful when I sat down. I wore it with sandals and again with boots and both times it looked amazing. Would rent again.

I wore this to an outdoor summer wedding.  It was perfect.  It was comfortable to wear and was easy to dance in!  The sleeves had a slit that made it non restricting.  I did pin the neckline closed. It was a perfect length, and looked great with a jean jacket on top later in the evening socializing around a bonfire.

Shows some cleavage for sure.  But ok for a night out.  Feels boho and summer.

I usually wear a 4, but went one size down based on reviews and it worked fine. It was fitted in the chest and waist, but I liked it that way. Pretty and flattering dress for work. Could also be dressed down.

Relaxed fit, made me feel like a hippie dreamgirl :)

Very comfy maxi dress in warm fall tones (though I borrowed it in the spring). I layered this with a camisole for more coverage up top. Be warned that this skirt will blow wide open! If i borrow this again, I will wear a slip just in case (even though it's lined) because the skirt blew open on me a couple times.
