This gown is a show stopper. I received sooo many compliments. I was super comfortable all night long! This was by far my favorite rental, and if I could, I would purchase this one! 

Wore this gorgeous dress for my masquerade birthday party! Based on the reviews, I ordered a 4 and it fit, but was just a little tight.  A 6 would have been perfect but the size wasn’t available so I went with what I had. Regardless, the dress was amazing and it made me feel amazing! 

For added flair, I added a corset on top. Received so many compliments! 

This dress fit perfectly! Got the 6 but couldn’t zip it because of my boobs. I normally look terrible and bottom heavy in dresses and I never ever wear them, but the stitching around the waist made my figure look amazing. No shapewear, no bra(!), perfect length just above the ground but I also had on very high heels. If you’re a shorty, be careful on steps. Top stayed put all night, no adjusting or slipping at all. Pockets were absolutely key, I carried around my phone and wallet all night and you couldn’t tell. Super light fabric. Give it a quick steam to get out any wrinkles. Love love love! I can’t recommend this dress highly enough!

I do recommend if you have big breast…size up.  I ordered the size 0 and size 2 as the backup and I am glad I did!  I will post and full frontal view once I get the pictures that were taken.

I wore this dress to my cousin's black tie wedding. I am 5'6" and 150 lbs, with a 32D (or 34C) bra size. I normally wear a size 4 or 6, depending, and I think a 6 fits me more often than a 4 so my plan was to order a 6 with a 4 as backup. I waited too long to order and they were out of the 6! I planned to try to slim down a little the week before the event to make sure I fit into the 4, but I love eating :) As it turns out, it was good I had all that that ice cream, because the dress fit perfectly! It isn't tight on the belly at all, which is a dream! It was a little tight on my ribcage, but not uncomfortably, and that helped it stay up. It was a wedding so I danced all night in this dress! I think it ended up making me look slimmer in the waist too. I can't rave enough about this dress. If I attended black tie events regularly with entirely new sets of people, I would fork over the $$ to buy this dress. Since I don't, renting it was a fantastic option!

Wore this to a formal summer wedding and I felt like a superstar! I have a broad rib cage so the 10 fit me just right around my back. This dress is so well made and I plan to rent again. I got compliments all night on the fit and look. Highly recommend! 

I have been renting from RTR for years and loved many dresses- but not like this one! This is by far the best dress ever. Super comfortable, fits curves beautifully, and it’s so flowy. When you walk it floats and flows behind you. Never felt so fabulous! And got so many compliments. I don’t want to return it!!!

I loved this dress. I received multiple compliments through out the night. I have a large back and it fit great. I never felt like the top was going to fall down, which is usually a concern with halter tops. It was a bit hard to dance in and that was my only “complaint”. I would have easily bought this dress. 

This dress catches everyone’s eye, I got many compliments on it all night long. 

The dress is fitted around the ribs and is true to size with zero stretch, so make sure your spare is one size up. 

One huge bonus is the dress has pockets! 

Perfect for hourglass girlies or girlies who want to look like hourglass girlies! High-low skirt makes it super easy to wear and the ruching at the bust is super flattering. Very comfortable. Skirt is bubble style, not a simple straight hem, so it has great movement. 

Fit so perfectly, I’m not busty so I didn’t have to wear a bra, and there was no continual adjusting of the top.  The fabric was beautiful and full,  I was soooo happy and didn’t want to send her back!! 

I wore this to a formal banquet and it was EVERYTHING. Based on other reviews I ordered a size up as a backup but my true size 2 fit perfectly- it was snug after dinner but I am small chested and the 2 fit better then the 4 and I personally would rather deal with a little snug fit after eating than looser in the chest all night. I wore 3.5 in heels and the dress still hit perfectly. I received endless compliments and wanted to buy the dress the end of the night! 

To sum it up, it was incredibly hard to say goodbye when I was dropping it off at UPS:)
It was beautiful and fit great! I got so many compliments! 

Great, comfortable dress. Didn’t feel like I needed shapewear to smooth any lumps or bumps. Didn’t need a bra, the corset top felt very secure. Bonus points for pockets :)

It was perfect in every way and I was getting embarrassed at the compliments and attention the dress drew.

Form fitting on the torso but lots of give through the bottom of the dress. Comfortable and elegant. It creases a bit easily so I traveled with a small steamer. It was also a little long in the back but I liked that it had a small train.

This dress was slightly large through the stomach but the bust was great, didn't even wear a bra!! Super comfortable!! 

I have curvy hips but a smaller waist and bust so I could have worn a 12 but it wasn’t available. This dress was so comfortable and amazing material. 

This dress fit beautifully! So elegant, comfortable, fun!!! 

Felt so elegant and this gown didn’t weigh me down, light and flowy and beautiful! Got so many compliments! Was also able to wear a strapless bra without any issue. Pockets were  huge bonus! 

Fits very snug through chest so size way up if ur chesty. Im a 34D. 

Overall a stunning dress that was very comfortable. I had to size up from the 8 to the 10, which made the bust a bit too large, but not terribly so. Would definitely rent it again! 

The train to floor was perfect for the show stopper. I am D bust and the built in bra held me all night. It is more of a corset up top. Very comfortable to wear. I received many compliments. I sized up to a 6 due to how tightly the top fit. 

I loved this dress. I'm usually a 2 but the 4 was perfect.

I am normally a size 10 on top and the 14 fit a little bit loose. The 12 wouldn’t zip. This dress is amazing but I was totally off with the sizing. I got the 10/12 and then had to order the 14 last minute. 

Perfect fit little bit of stretch. So elegant

Size up. I am normally a 4 but barely made the 6 work. 

This dress drapes beautifully and has a flattering silhouette. It’s also lightweight and comfy! I had to size up about 2 sizes to fit my rib cage comfortably and it worked, but was a little big in the chest. I added a safety pin to cinch it in a bit more and that worked perfectly! I felt really good in this dress and would wear it again. 

I wore this dress for a black tie wedding. Got tons of compliments. I have 36DD, and opted to just use boob tape rather than wear a bra or go braless. I could have gone braless (which literally NEVER happens) but felt a little more supported with the tape.  I also have a short torso and wide shoulders, which means the 10 didn't zip at the top but the 12 prob had excess fabric. It looked fine and was plenty comfortable but if I were to buy this dress I'd have the torso altered a bit. 

Wore this for my company holiday party. Simple, beautiful, and comfortable. 

This dress was stunning for a formal masquerade ball-themed Naval Award Ceremony! I loved dancing in it, and I’m convinced it made me look like a better dancer than I am. I’m short and the length was perfect in 5”heels. My tiny boobs barely held up the size 2, but a strapless push-up bra helped. The bodice was a little snug when I sat down, but the size 4 would have been way too big. I wasn’t feeling great that day, and the cut of the dress right at my hips covered up my bloated belly perfectly. Bonus: I came in second place for best dressed AND my 13yo daughter even said it was one of the prettiest dresses I’ve ever worn!

This dress is amazing. Didn’t need a bra and it has pockets. Ended up going with the size 8 as the size 10 was just a big baggier on me.

So many compliments! Great dress for a wedding or fancy night out! 

It fit TTS, maybe ran slightly big - other reviews said it ran small - not my experience. Comfortable and classic! Only problem was length in the back - was at a crowded event and it did get stepped on. But otherwise, great dress!

Wore this dress to a black tie wedding! Got so many compliments and it fit great! You can tell it’s a great quality dress. 

This was my first Rent the Runway experience and it was great from start to finish!  I loved the selection of dresses and felt the reviews were useful in making a decision.  The dress came on the day I asked and it fit perfectly.  I did not need a strapless bra as the structure of the bust area did a great job of holding me in and feeling secure.  Heals are a must as the dress is long.  I wore this dress to a black tie gala and I felt beautiful in it.  Returning it was super easy.  I will be using Rent the Runway again for my next big event.

Would rent this again, the fit was perfect and I got tons of compliments.

Not sure if it was my tan lines, but it seemed the dress was a bit lower where it landed on my chest. It was chilly, so had  a fluffy jacket that I loved with it. Only negative was the hanger straps did not want to stay tucked in and since they are light grey they showed in a couple pics. Still...fabulous and of course the pockets were wonderful!!

I felt so pretty wearing this dress! So many compliments all evening long. It flows behind you as you walk, leaving you feeling like a princess. Did I mention it has pockets?! 🙌🏼 Incredibly comfortable. The high low style brings enough sass will keeping all the class.  I truly considered purchasing this dress because it’s so wonderful. 

This dress was perfect for a black tie optional event and I loved wearing it.  The high-low length made the dress more fun than a full length gown, but the materials is still formal (and it has pockets!).  I had to wear 4" heels so that the back wouldn't touch the floor, but it the back still touched the floor a little if I didn't stand up straight. 

Ran small, 10 didn’t fit around bust so sized up! 

Stunning dress, fit perfectly. Usually a size 0 or 2 depending on how the boob area fits. Loved it. 

Absolutely loved this rental. It’s comfortable, and light and it has pockets!!! I ordered a size 10 & 12 and went with the 12 to accommodate my 36DD chest. A note for my short girls. I am 5’4 and I wore platform heels to keep the back from dragging. I had so much fun wearing this dress and received many compliments. I will definitely be renting this dress again.

Gorgeous dress and easy to wear. I’m definitely in the minority here… I HATE dresses with pockets. I feel like pockets and bulk on the sides and looks messy if you actually use them. I typically won’t even wear a dress if it has pockets and if it’s a dress I own I keep the pocket sewn up. That said, the bottom portion of this dress is flow enough that you don’t notice the pockets so it was fine  

Great fit, comfortable. Lots of compliments! 

It is pretty long. I am 5’9” and it almost touched the ground with heels.
