sexy but runs large (Stretchy)
The dress is fun and cute and could be very sexy if on right body type. I ordered a size 0 and size 2. They both ran bigger than expected. This dress has a lot of stretch to it. would probably look better on a curvier shape

RTR is so convenient!! I was able to party in my dress and return it in the mail the next day with no problems!
I wore this dress to my best friend's all black birthday party and I loved it! This dress truly complimented my little curves and made me look amazing!!

Dress is STRETCHY and LONG
I ordered up instead of down, so my usual size is a 4 and I got a 6 for my second size when a 2 would have been perfect.
The sequins are really great quality and the dress is quite stretchy which is why a 2 would have been better.
I am also 5'0" so the dress went down to my knees; still cute though- but wish I had known about how stretchy and long it was

Runs large
I ordered a 6 and it fit me in terms of length. The one thing to note is that the dress has a lot of rouching in the front and back. I'm curvy, and was expecting it be more form fitting like the picture but found it to be sort of baggy in the stomach and lower back area.

Great evening party dress
I too expected the dress to fit a little tighter, especially in the bust. I didn't fill out the top very well and the straps fell a few times, but nothing significant. Everyone said it fit me like a glove, but I could tell it wasn't as tight as other Nicole Miller dresses I've worn. Overall it was a great dress. It's fun to sparkle!

cute sparkly dress!
I ordered this dress for NYE and loved it; however, it was big!!! I am always a size ten, but I definitely could've been a size 8 in this dress. Lots of sparkles and a cute fit otherwise though.

Understated yet eye-catching
Loved it! This is a really fun party dress - several people complimented me on it, and the shininess really seemed to grab people's attention. The beads lay flat, which makes the dress lighter, less scratchy, and more curve-conscious than other beaded dresses I have worn.
The dress did run large, so I had to pin the straps to shorten them. A pretty easy adjustment to make on short notice.

I'm also 5'1 and I'm wondering if the dress was long on you. Being short is my biggest problem with dresses.
RTRMay 22, 2012
Hi Esmeralda, this dress is 34'' from shoulder to hem so it will be a bit longer than mid-thigh on your height.

Great dress- runs VERY large
i have a very petite and narrow build, no hips or butt, but a large bust. i typically wear a 4, sometimes a 2 to fit my chest but for this dress i ended up wearing a 0. it has an enormous amount of stretch to it and it seems like previous customers have stretched out the bust area significantly because even for me it was still a little loose, but definitely not noticeable. if you have a small chest, i would not recommend this dress because you won't fill out the 0 no matter what size you are elsewhere. it was longer on me than on the model and i have very long legs. overall, the dress was in great condition, very high quality of sequins. i loved it and would definitely rent it again but this is a dress that requires a specific body type.

great dress - strange ruffles
beautiful dress. loved texture, stretchiness of fabric, and shimmer. from the front/back, very flattering. the ruching/ruffles are strange and add a few inches to your side profile (NOT flattering from this angle). i don't have very wide hips so the ruffles were extra baggy, even in the size 2 (i usually wear a 4). also kind of itchy as the sequins poke through the liner a bit. all in all though, very fun dress for the right occasion.

I've worn a lot of Nicole Miller dresses and found that this one ran a little big, especially in the hips/torso area.

Spicy Look!
I am glad that I read the previous reviews. This dress does run large. I traditionally wear a size 8 or 6. I actually ordered a 4 & 6 and the 4 fit me like a glove!
I was the hottest lady at all of the events I went to: dinner at a 4 star restaurant, comedy show, lounge and after party spot. It is perfect for all occasions.
You will receive tons of compliments in this dress!
Have fun!

Love the neckline :) Others said they loved the shine
Listen to the other reviews- it runs big!! I know it can be scary to only order smaller sizes but I am a usually 4/6 and I ordered the 2/4 and wore the 2. I also ended up pinning the hem up an inch because I wasn't thrilled with the length- the shorter length was more flattering. Tight on hips/upper thighs, so think twice if you are body-conscious in these areas. Plenty of room in the bust, even in the 2. It was fun and shiny, good for a cocktail party or night out. Got plenty of compliments, but personally it wasn't my favorite rental ever.

Looked better than I thought!
I was a little nervous that it would be too tight and make me look like a wet seal but it was PERFECT. I love Nicole Miller dresses (ideal for those of us who don't have the biggest boobs). I wanted it for a hot date and it sure did the job. I also got a pair of earrings for it - small dangle with a good amount of sparkle - they were great. This was my first rental from Rent the Runway and I am very pleased. Thanks!

I definitely felt like the star in this dress. Most people dressed down for my event, bu it was definitely a flattering dress that photographed well!
I rented this dress for my 21st birthday party. I expected to wear a 4 but ended up wearing the 2. I definitely could've gotten into a 0 for a really snug fit. It definitely looks best with a fuller bust, but it's surprisingly long and stretchy. I wish I could buy it and was really sad to send it back!

Really runs LARGE!
there is significant pleating at the front and back (for a tummy?) and the dress is overall really stretchy! I am a nicole miller 6 usually, and I would ABSOLUTELY size down. the 6 was huge, so I ended up wearing another dress. Would rent again in a 2 and 4 though.

Loved This Dress!
I rented a size 2 and 4 for this dress. Normally I wear a size 2. The dress has stretch to it so I could have worn a size 0 if I wanted a tighter fit, but the 2 fit me perfectly. You can't tell on the picture of the model, but around the stomach area, the dress has a few ridges that hide belly fat which is great. The dress is elegant and sexy, just like in the picture. I'm 5'5" and the lenth on me was mid thigh whch was perfect. I'm flat chested and wore a miracle bra. This dress works fine for flat chests but would look better with a little bit of bust. The straps are slightly loose so they fell a few times. This dress looks great with red stand out lips!

The service - AMAZING! Convenient and easy. And the items they provided with the dresses, like 2-sided tape was genius.
Fun dress, but things I wish I had known or considered before renting it: 1) The reviews are true, this dress runs large. Definitely consider going down one size. Despite wearing a size 4, the dress was baggy in the stomach area for me 2) The straps kept sliding off my shoulders. If going out and dancing, this is not the dress to wear 3) If wearing this dress in the dead of Winter, consider spray tanning. As you can tell from my photo, I could have benefited from that :) Otherise that, loved the fit, the length and the glam factor! It was a great dress for Vegas!

RTR is always my go to for my sorority functions - i love having designer dresses that no one else has.
I LOVED this dress. I wore the 0 and it fit great, although i am only an a/b cup. It would definitly be more flattering on someone with a bigger chest. I initially thought the sequins were a little uncomfortbale but they ended up not bothering me. definitely rent

Fun for Vegas
This dress certainly runs large. The one thing that surprised me was there is gathering on the stomach and lower back that was not very flattering on me. Look at the side view picture of the model. I ended it up not wearing it for that reason, but it was cute and fun.

I rented this dress for a Vegas trip and the black sequins were perfect. I am a curvy girl, but somehow the 4 fit better than the 6 they sent me.

Strutting down the streets of LA in a new designer dress was unforgettable.
I was visiting a friend in LA and needed a dress to wear out to a fancy club. I'm glad I ordered a size 0 and 2 after reading reviews about the fit. I would usually order a 2 and 4 but the 0 hugged my figure just right.
I have a small bust, small waist, and wider hips so this dress accentuated my figure nicely. I'm a little taller than 5'5" and the skirt it my mid-thigh. I like to wear short mini skirts so this dress felt more classy and elegant than my average girls night out dress.
The v-shaped neckline was good for balancing out my small chest and gave the illusion of cleavage- nice! The straps were a bit long and kept slipping but since the dress fit so nicely, it didn't bother me. I recommend ordering your regular size and one size smaller- the dress looks best when it hugs your curves.

All the compliments
I am usually a 6 so I ordered the 6 and the 4. I was able to wear the 4 so I would say the dress runs large. It was very flattering and I felt comfortable all night. I would have liked the dress to be a little shorter, but I am only 5'3.

I added this dress as a very last minute second option. The customer service reps caught my order before it shipped and added the dress that ended up being THE ONE!
I wore this for my 40th birthday party. The dress was a bit too big. It has lots of stretch. But, it wasn't bad. I could have worn a 6, which is very odd for me. It itched so I wore a body shaper under it to shield my skin from the sequins. It really was a great rental. I was comfortable and got TONS of compliments.

Feeling comfortable and confident in the dress was the best!
This is a really great and very versatile dress. It has sequins but they are subtle (as subtle as they can be) and could be dressed down a bit as I did for the event I went to or could be dressed up even more with some spectacular jewelry, etc.
The dress had a good amount of stretch, I'm a 4 on top, 6 on bottom usually, the 6 was too big, loose even, the 4 fit well with the amount of stretch the dress has. It didn't feel tight, it was comfortable to sit, walk and even dance it. I love it and I loved the RTR experience, can't wait to order up another dress for a wedding in a few weeks.
I was only sad that I wasn't able to meet the RTR founders who happened to be a the same party where I wore this dress, that would've made a great photo! :)

Cute dress straps too long
This dress is really cute and fits really nice in the body, very flattering. However, if you have a history of straps being too long on you like I do this dress will not work! They are very very long even if I had gone to a 0 they would have been too long. I try on Nicole Miller dresses from time to time because they are so beautiful but they pretty much always run too big in the shoulders.

Pretty - but not STUNNING
Felt a little cheap and over-worn - it was WAY too big and didn't end up wearing it because it wasn't the right fit. I would go a size smaller than expected.

being told how beautiful I looked by multiple people!
Currently I am a size 8, sometimes a 6, in this dress I was a 6. It is a very forgiving dress and I would choose a size down as your backup, as others have suggested. It's beautiful and easy to wear all night. The length on me was fine, I am 5'4. I might have prefered something shorter as I was in Vegas, but I felt much classier than most the girls I saw. The straps are a little long but not too bad. Overall I would recommend this dress, it's gorgeous and lined, so the sequins aren't bothersome.

perfect for a Miami evening
I was on vacation in Miami and had brought this (and another RTR dress) with me. It was a beautiful fit; although tight, it moved well and was very comfortable. I loved that the sequins were so small that it fully complimented the look of the dress without taking away from the cut.

This dress made me feel sophisticated and sexy all night.
This dress was actually my back-up dress for a night out in Vegas. The dress is extremely flattering, and made me feel sexy and sophisticated. Understated, but eye-catching. This is a must-rent dress, I hated having to return it!
The only cons were the straps were about 1/2 inch too long and if you don't have a bust, this dress isn't for you.

Loved the dress. I felt very sexy and understated at the same time. 2nd time renting it!
The strap falls off the shoulders easily and you can't really see it from the pic but there's bunching of the fabric on the front and the back. But it's very flattering!

It was a little longer than expected and you can't tell from the picture that there is some bunching on the sides that I wasn't a huge fan of and the bust was small compared to the rest of the dress but it still looked amazing.

Futuristic and comfortable!
Wore this in Vegas for a good 8 hours and was totally comfortable. The mid-section does have this weird rouching thing going on -- but it laid well once I put it on and made eating dinner possible! Had a friend who didn't come to vegas becasue she was pregnant and when she saw the pictures she said 'you and so-and-so had the best dresses -- you rented them, didn't you?' Renting a well made dress, especially when it comes to sequins, is so much more worth the money than buying something cheap you'll never wear again.

Didn't end up wearing the dress - size 0 was too big.
I ordered this as a backup dress, both a size 0 and 2, and the zero was too big. The straps were too long and would not stay put unless I pulled the dress down a bit too low. The bust area is nice, sexy without giving away too much. The rest of the dress fit ok, but there it was still a tad bit too large so it just looked off. It is very shiny and sequiny - would be great for a fun party or girls night out.

This dress has a lot of stretch which makes it very comfy and easy to move/dance around in!
I usually wear a 6, but due to the amount of stretch on this dress I wore the size 4 I had also ordered. I wore this dress for a night out in Vegas and it was very easy to move around in and to dance the night away! The center rouching makes gives the illusion that you have a little more in the tummy area, but the side panels conform to your body which make up for that center area. Overall, I enjoyed the dress and was happy that I chose to rent it!
