Tons of compliments! This dress made me feel beautiful!
Fit true to size, however it was a little short...even in the long length. If you are tall you will will definitely want the long length!

It took the guessing out of having to find a dress on my own AND I avoided the stores!
I am 5'8 145 lbs. and the 8L fit like a glove. It was also very comfortable which is key because I'm normally not the dress wearing type:). I will use RTR for every occasion from now on. I'm so incredibly happy with everything they have to offer!

By far, the most beautiful dress I've ever worn!!
This dress was fantastic! I received so many compliments and felt like a million dollars. I felt like I turned heads wherever I went. I'm so sad to send it back. Also, it was very comfortable and I could wear a normal bra with it, which was important to me. I am 5'5" and am definitely glad I went with the longer size! I love rent the runway!

I got tons of compliments, gorgeous dress. They should replace them with new ones though.
The size 2 was very worn and missing sequins, the size 0 looked like it had been pinned in the cleavage area and it was ripped. Both were very worn and in poor condition. Would rent again for sure if they had new ones!

Dress lives up to the hype!
On the hanger it doesn't look like much, I was disappointed with it at first glance, but once you put it on it is a showstopper! In person the sequins look gold, but in pictures they look silver so I accessorized with a silver/diamond-y look. I am a size 4 5'7" 128 lbs and it fit great in the 4. Definitely get the long, the regular is wayy too short for any heels. You will get compliments galore. My only negative is that it is heavy and hot for a summer event, despite being indoors. Rent it! You'll love it!

I received a lot of compliments for wearing this dress. I wore to a formal wedding.
Pros-The stretch in the material was great. It was lined so it prevented scratches or irritability. It has a gold and silver tint so you can do both.
Con-You will need help with zipping the dress. The button is hard.
However, I do recommend this dress! This was my first time and I will use RTR in the future.

First and definitely not the last RTR purchase, I loved it!!
I wore this for a school event that we have every year that kicks off the new semester. This wasn't the dress i originally intended to rent (the other one was booked for the weekend) so i took a chance on this one and i have zero regrets. I received compliments all night on the dress and i really felt beautiful. The dress was a little long on me because I'm really short so i suggest you wear heels of some kind with them, the dress also plunges a little low in the front. I dealt with it and wore it as is but i'm sure fashion tape or a nice tank underneath should fix it. This is a mix of sliver and gold sequins so you can pair it off with either (but sliver looks better in my opinion). Other than that, i had a really great experience in this dress. I definitely plan on renting again!

I wore this to a 1920's themed wedding. I got compliments ALL night. Which is the point why we RTR!
This dress fit my body well, like a glove, but it was comfortable enough to move and dance. I am 5'3" and I got the R length. I read other reviews and most people who mentioned length issues were 5'5" and above so I thought I would be fine. I prefer gowns hit the floor while wearing heels, so I recommend if you have the same preference to order the Long. I was able to pick it up in-store. While waiting to try it on, I browsed the racks. I asked to see 2 other dresses I liked. I'm grateful my size was unavailable because my original dress was a hit!

This was the first time I've ever worn a gown and I felt gorgeous.
The dress fit like a glove. I was worried the 12 might be too small for me. I'm 5'10", 180lbs with ample bust. The 12L was perfect. And I wore 3.5" heels.

This dress was gorgeous! Stunning and received so many compliments!
This dress was even more beautiful in person, if you can imagine that. It received so many compliments and it was such a sexy dress, yet one of the most comfortable I have ever worn! It fit perfectly and I loved how easy it was to return. This is the first time I rented from Rent the Runway and the experience makes me want to rent again. Amazing! <3 This dress helped make my sister's bridal shower even more memorable than it was :)

This dress is simple and elegant, perfect for a black tie wedding!
Not only is this dress beautiful, but it's really comfortable too. I was able to dance all night without feeling restricted. It's pretty low cut, which was fine by me because I have a smaller chest. But I'd be a bit more weary about it if I had a bigger chest. It was also about 2 inches too long on me, but I'm only 5'3" in heels. It was easy enough to temporarily take up with some hem tape.

Comfortable and perfect for the occasion.
Fit was true, I could have worn the 10L but it made my boobs look phenomenal and as I was without my husband I figured I'd keep it classy ;)
The Long still isn't long enough, barefoot it just came to my ankles and I am only 5'9" so if you want to wear a lower heel (which I did) it still looks appropriate.
No spanks, no rash under my arms from sequins, not too heavy at all.
Only downside was the damn zipper!

I felt so beautiful and I received compliments on my dress all night !
I normally wear a size 6 dress but the 4 fit me well. I am 5'3 so it was a little long even with tall heels on.

This dress was AWESOME! Little bit if stretch and fit true to size. A bit low cut for my liking.
This dress was a HIT! I got lots of compliments. It also fit my hourglass figure well and didn't hug my thighs too much. A bit too low cut for my liking, felt a little self conscious.

Ordered in size 12. Didn't end up wearing this, it fit but was uncomfortably tight in the rib cage/chest area. Beautiful dress though.

Classic, Stunning, and Comfortable. Perfection.
This dress fit like a glove!! I wore it to a very formal Black Tie wedding in Miami and felt like a million bucks! I am still receiving compliments on the dress and the wedding was more than two weeks ago! I wore the 6L with flats because I am recovering from a broken foot and heels were out of the question. I am 5'9 and the length was still perfect even with flats. I am self conscious about my arms, so the sleeves helped me feel so much more confident and able to strut my stuff! And, one of the most important details, I could dance like a maniac in the dress too!! The official DJ of the Miami Heat pumped up the reception with a crazy dance party, and this dress was perfect to get my groove on! As another plus to this dress, it photographed GREAT! Rent the Runway is God's gift to women! I will definitely be ordering from RTR again, and probably even get this same dress because of how much I loved it!

everyone was pretty awestruck. Felt like an old school movie star
heavier than you think with all those sequins, need to wear some pretty tall heels to make sure the dress isn't dragging on the floor. Overall really great.

The dress is a great fit. True to size. Wore to a black tie optional wedding. Did not feel over or under dressed. Was able to wear a normal bra and two inch heels. Suggest a pushup bra with the low v-neck.

Great classic silhouette with lots of sparkle for a fancy affair.
Pros: you can wear a normal bra, great neckline, back cutout and slit are sexy yet classy.
Cons: a little bit long unless you wear with 4+ inch heels.

This dress photographed awesome and the sparkle really made it stand out in a crowd!
The dress was flattering and true to size! I wore the 10 instead of the 8 so that the dress hung a little bit looser and I gained some length. I wanted to order longs but waited too long. If you're 5'6" and plan on wearing heals, get the long. This was my first RTR experience and will totally order again! I got so many compliments and loved the whole experience and look!

The Perfect Dress!
I felt amazing in this dress! I am 5'5 and ordered the 4R and 4L and ultimately went with the long because I knew I'd like to wear 3 inch heels. I received so many compliments. I was a bit nervous about wearing such a sparkly gown but it was not obnoxious at all. I have an "athletic" lower half with a booty and thick thighs and it skimmed right over and I wasn't self conscious in the least. I loved that I could wear a regular bra, and since I'm smaller on top, it wasn't super revealing. Thank you RTR for yet another great experience!

Great dress. WAY short.
I loved this dress, but BEWARE TALL GIRLS. I am 5 ft. 10 in., and even in bare feet the Long did not touch the ground (probably an inch short). It's a beautiful and comfortable dress, but if you want to make sure it covers your feet, this is not the one for you.

The dress fit like a glove. I am 5'11" and around 140 lbs, wore the 4L with flats. I could have gotten away with wearing low heels but went for comfort instead. I wanted to keep this dress as my own, it was so comfortable and I got an insane amount of compliments. You will NOT regret renting this dress, it's perfect!

I loved the feel of this dress it was sparkly all over. I wore it to a black tie wedding.
The dress was a little big. They didn't have my back up size available so I just ordered the 8L. There was plenty of give and I could have really worn a 6 but I don't think anyone noticed but me. Also the dress is super low cut. Overall I loved the dress and my experience with RTR.

The dress fit perfectly. I am 5'4" and the 2 long was long enough to wear with high heels. I wore the dress to a black tie wedding. I loved it and everyone else loved it. Definitely great for any formal event.

I felt very glamorous in this dress!
I wore this dress to my prom, I was very skeptical at first because I was getting it the day before my event so I was worried it wasn't going to fit, but it fit perfectly! If your going for a elegant and classy dress this dress won't disappoint! It is a form fitting dress so if you want want a dress that will hide a little bit more I wouldn't get this dress, it also cuts pretty low so i just wore a bandeau underneath. I'm 5'8 and the length was fine , standing up straight it was about an inch and a half above my toes so I just wore flats. Overall I was very happy with this dress and glad I choose it! Definitely will be using rent the runway for other fancy occasions!

Gorgeous dress!
This dress was my backup and the only reason I didn't wear it was because I went with my first choice (also, please forgive the unmade bed in the background, this was the only pic I had and thought it was more helpful to see the dress on a person). I typically don't go with longer lengths, but if you are tall & plan on wearing heels (3" for example) then I recommend the long length, it hit at just the right place. The plunging neckline is revealing, but I am a 34B and didn't feel self-conscience. This dress is beautiful and perfect for a black tie event.

Stunning and sparkly. Body conscious but flattering.
Pros: beautiful drape, nice neckline.
Cons: beading tended to stick together.
Note: I was not able to wear it due to both the 4R and 6R being to short (looked totally awkward on me) but had I been 3 inches shorter, this would have been a perfect dress.

This dress turns heads!
I wore this dress for a black tie gala. I will concur with the previous reviewers: The dress fits true to size, the long size is ideal if you're 5'5 or taller and wish to wear heels and if you are big busted (like me!) be prepared to have your girls front and center all night! The only con to this dress is, like any other full sequins gown, the sequins can catch on any and everything and are a bit itchy around the neck and arm area. Besides that, I had no complaints! I received many compliments from both young and older women alike on how beautiful the dress was so if you want to feel like a Hollywood starlet, this dress is for you!
