I received many compliments on this beautiful dress. The combination of delicate floral pattern and glittery fabric was perfection. Very elegant. 

Showstopper. Received so many compliments all night. I am very big in hips/butt and small chested so I did have to safety pin/fashion tape this quite a bit and I wore a stick-on bra but it was amazing. Would buy if I could! 

Beautiful dress. Great for a Mardi Gras Ball I attended.  I didn’t like how it fit across the breast area. Adjustable straps would have made a big difference. The straps were falling all night which made me a little self conscious that too much was being exposed. Overall nice dress. 

Straps were a little long on me but worked when I used strapless bra and tape. Will rent again. 

I’m “usually a size six” in like Ann Taylor/mall brands. In fancy clothes I am a size 8. I am actually renting this again for another wedding it was so gorgeous - even prettier in person. I’m just going to be sure to have boob tape this time! As other reviewers noted, the straps are too long (wish they could just shorten them slightly since everyone seems to agree on this!) This meant it looked fabulous standing up with my shoulders back, but the second I sat down or bent over, my tatas were out and on the loose! I did not realize that was the result of the too loose straps issue or I would have brought fashion tape. The third picture is for comedic relief for my fellow moms - can’t even take two seconds to try on a dress in peace. It also shows reason #2 I need more security for the boobies than this dress provided. The girls just aren’t sitting like they used to. Which brings me to my final point - I dumbly thought based on the display photo that this was a dress that wouldn’t come down so low that I wouldn’t be able to wear a bra. Not true. You will not be able to wear a bra with this. So if you’re like me and birthing two adorable little darlings has left your original two darlings hangin a little lower than before, order some of those new sticky boob covers with the tabs that let you pull those puppies up a bit. And the fashion tape. Or don’t. Free the nipple. You do you.

Absolutely stunning Dress loved the details of the flowers with the sparkle and sequins! The only issue I had is it was way too open in the house I had to pin it !  Wear to a family wedding and got so many compliments! 

This dress is more beautiful in person, all the little sequins gives it a purplish-grey color. I ended up not wearing this dress because another dress for the theme better but it was a close second! I’m a size 6 typically and this fit true to size. For a36D, it was loose at the top and the straps are not adjustable so a safety pin or tape might be needed. 

I probably should have worn a bralette under the top because tape didn’t hold but dress was stunning in person. Loved it 

The shimmer is real. Draped nicely. The straps are not adjustable. The slit was higher than expected but great for a wedding. Lots of compliments. 

This dress was so much better then I anticipated. The way it shimmered was almost metallic, not your typical sequins (which I prefer). Was super slimming in the waist area. I’m usually an 8 and will size up to a 10 depending how the dress runs… I got the 8L and it was perfect. Great length for tall women (im 5’10) and had 4 inch heels on. The leg peek-a-book gave it a little extra sex appeal. People were complimenting me all night, was a hit! 

This was a beautiful dress and I got compliments all night long! It is a little snug in the mid section and has very little stretch so i went with a larger size. Wore some shape wear underneath and it fit like a glove. It was still super comfortable to sit and dance in. 10/10 would recommend!

This dress was perfect. A little loose in the top, I used booby tape but especially when sitting down it would droop a bit just showing the black underside of the dress. Otherwise this dress was amazing, comfortable and gorgeous. I received so many compliments!

I loved the coloring of the floral print on sequins. Unfortunately, the top was too big and I had a lot of fallout, even with tape, the dress didn’t stay on appropriately to cover the breast area. Otherwise, the slit and length were perfect.

This dress was amazing, comfortable and easy to move in. I did have to sew up the top to close up the amount of cleavage that was showing it worked great! 

I loved this dress, the shape was perfect for me. I did need double sided tape for the bust because it was a little big 

Not sure if it’s just a preference thing but I strongly disliked this dress - while it did fit my frame I felt it was so unflattering esp from the side. The sequins look much cheaper in person, slit shows your entire leg if you move, my hips and stomach were super accentuated - just not for me but technically did fit fine for reference if anyone is similar to my size 

Had to pin the front so my bra wouldn’t show. The split is very revealing when sitting. It’s hard to be graceful sitting. Had the tie the straps to adjust because they aren’t adjustable. Luckily my hair covered the knots. Fits just right in the bodice. 

So sad I can’t wear this dress. The top just gapes open even though the bottom part fits right. 

The proportions are just way off. Bummer. 

The 8 fit perfect, but it was just very loose in the bust. Since the straps weren’t adjustable, I used a bra strap converter to make it more of a halter, tacked the front with a little fashion tape, and also pinned it for good measure. I’m under 5’ and even with my 5” platforms on, it was still pretty long. So, just be aware if you’re short. Otherwise this dress was a huge hit.

The straps are very long and the chest area and underarms is large and gaps. I wanted to love this dress but I did not wear it due to the I’ll fitting top. 

Deep front, I had to pin it to close the opening little bit.  

i wore this to a new year's eve black tie wedding--sequins were highly encouraged. I loved it and felt so beautiful and got loads of compliments. if you are between sizes, i would size up but it made the top far too big. I had to safety pin about 3 inches of strap and add a pin to the bust line to have it not gaping too much. so if you're busty, keep that in mind!

it’s a beautiful dress and was perfect for the event I wore it to! I got tons of compliments on it. 
My biggest problem with the dress is that the straps are long and cannot be adjusted. I did also have to rent a size bigger than I normally wear, which also contributed to that. Needed to pin the front and double-sided tape. Otherwise, it’s a beautiful dress and was perfect for the event I wore it too! 

It’s a beautiful gown. It just didn’t fall on my body type the way I’d like so I ended up wearing a different dress. Unfortunately this one didn’t complement me the way I hoped. 

Fit slightly large but was super comfortable. I used a little boob tape to avoid a nip slip:)

This was a beautiful dress that I got a ton of compliments on at a black-tie wedding! I like that it's fun and sparkly, but not so over the top. I wish the size 16 had been available to try, the 14 was a little snug through the waist, but ended up not being uncomfortable. I did have to use boob tape, might have been better to pin it though. The waist line made it a little difficult to pull the zipper up, which at first made me think the 14 was too small, but I had the same issue with the 18 and that was too big. The slit did go up a little higher than I would have preferred, but I just had to be mindful of it when sitting down and getting up. 

As a mom of two I don’t get out much. I felt so sexy but elegant at the same time. I am small chested so double sided tape is a must. I loved the slit in front which made it easy to move around. It was fun to play with jewelry and accessories as well. Can’t recommend this dress enough if you want to feel classy and sexy! 

This dress is beautiful and got me a lot of compliments! It’s easy to move in because of the slit in the legs. My only issue with it was that it was too large. I am pregnant and it isn’t a pregnancy dress so I went a size or two too large. It was perfect over my belly bump but was too large in the shoulders abs busy. But if you’re true to this size, it should be perfect!

Loved loved this dress.  The fit was great (I probably should have had boob take with me)  it other than that it was comfortable and got so many compliments. I think you need a bigger bust for this style for it to fit best

I loved everything about this dress. I used if for a black tie wedding and got so many compliments. Definitely low cut but fashion tape worked perfectly. 

Wore for a black tie, August wedding. First time using RTR so was a little nervous, but so worth it. I I revived so many compliments!! Danced all night, very comfortable. No complaints! 

I loved this dress!!! I got so many compliments all night long and I felt wonderful in it. So sparkly and so flattering!!! It is on the heavier side. It was 96° at the wedding I went to, and honey, I was sweating!!! But I don't regret the dress at all. I felt like a million bucks, so it was well worth it!!

Wore this dress for a black tie optional wedding, and it was perfect. I felt very elegant, and it was pretty comfortable (especially considering I was 14 weeks pregnant and had a small bump.) I had to pin the straps because they were way too long, but otherwise it was great!

This fit perfectly. I am 5'11 195 pounds. The 14L fit like a glove. I was comfortable and able to walk, dance, eat etc. I've used Rent the Runway a few times and never been disappointed
