This dress fit true to size with some flow which made it all the more comfortable. 10 out of 10 will rent again! 

Fit was true to size. Im 5'2 and 125lbs. I wore the 2R. Length was perfect, top was a little loose but felt great on and easy to dance in. 

Nice dress.  Great fr any cup, I felt that it did not anchor enough for me in the bust. Would recommend wearing a strapless bra Dress does fall to the group, due to my height I would definitely have done better with a Long rather than a Regular. The dress does not stretch however the slip does. Dress fell comfortably at my natural waist. Would recommend taking the next size up as a back up.

This dress fits true to size and is very comfortable.  Danced the night away in it!  I'm 5'4" and the dress was a little long.  Had to wear a 4" inch heel.   If you want a lower heel and no worries about catching the hem, maybe go with the petite.

This dress was super comfortable and fit like a glove. Danced all night with no issues. Length was great not to the floor which made it easier to dance! Straps were a little big but other then that perfect fit.

I wore this for a fancy rehearsal dinner and felt so pretty and comfortable in it! Perfect for a spring/summer occasion because the material was light and airy. 

Dress fit perfectly, no issues with the zipper. The straps are pretty long though so I ended up clipping them together in the back. Sparkles and is very comfortable to wear. 

Wow.  I LOVE this dress.  It is so simple but uber elegant.  I rented this for a fundraising gala and received compliments all night long.  I'm 5' 4" and 3" heels made this dress the perfect length.  I tried on the 4R also, but it was super short; I think someone must have cut off the bottom.  The 2R was about 3" longer than the 4R!  Some reviews said that the straps were too long, but I don't agree.  You cannot go wrong with this dress.

I rented this dress in an 8R and 10R. The 8R was actually more stretched out and loose than the 10 was. I wore this to an outdoors wedding in upstate NY and loved it! This was actually my third choice as my first two options didn't end up working out but received lots of compliments. The regular length was perfect for my 5'2 height with some mid level chunky heels. 

Fit great, I went up a size so it would not be too tight and would drape like in the stock photo and I'm glad I did. The straps were EXTREMELY stretched out so I did have to pin them back, but it was worth it. Also, there is no L (long) option...I ordered the 14L and just got a 14. It could've used a little more length, but I was ok with it. I got so many compliments and felt comfortable and confident all night.

I wore this dress for my law school formal and it turned out perfectly! The dress is a beautiful dark blue and photos don't show the full effect of its sparkle. If you have a large bust, it has ample space up top without being huge everywhere else. The dress was a little on the short side though-- I am 5'3" and it was a perfect length on me, but would be too short on someone a few inches taller. All in all, I would definitely recommend it! 

Absolutely loved this dress! I wore a 6R, but the dress runs large and probably could have worn a 4. The straps on the dress were long, but they could have easily been pinned to make them shorter.  (I didn't do that because I was afraid it would damage the dress, but I'm sure it could have been done.) The only other thing is I would be to order a long if you want to wear tall heels... I'm 5'4" and my heels may have been 2.5 inches and you could see my shoes under the dress. Overall, the dress was very comfortable and fun - lots of compliments on the dress! I would definitely recommend this dress and RTR! First experience with RTR and this won't be my last!! 

The fit  and length was perfect for what I wanted. The straps were too long but I fixed that problem with 2 small safety pins. I love that they send two sizes. The original size I chose (2 reg) ended up being way too big so my backup size (0 reg) was what I wore.  Being only 5'1 I was afraid the regular length would be too long (petite length was not available for my event date) but with 2 inch heels it was the perfect length. I'm actually barefoot in the full length picture w

Fits true to size. Loved the color and the detail. Only con was that I couldn't keep it! 

I wore this dress to a Christmas party. The sequins are beautiful in person, but not as crazy sparkly as normal sequins. The muted shine was subtle and not over the top, exactly what I wanted. I selected the 14R and the 16L since those were the two available for my delivery date. The 14 fit well, but definitely was a bit shorter than I preferred and was a bit snug in my tummy area. I ended up wearing the 16L and was so comfortable all night! The only thing I would've changed are the straps. I had to pin them together with a safety pin in the back to keep them from falling down. Other than that, I loved the dress! Would definitely rent again and would absolutely recommend!

Beautiful dress and perfect fit.  I loved wearing this for a great Gatsby themed party.

I loved this dress! I am a full figure, I wear a size 16-18, 210 Lbs and a 42DD bra. This dress was actually a little larger than I was expecting! I was able to wear the smaller size! It fit great, was comfortable & the sparkle was lovely. Bought this for a wedding my husband and I sang at and it looked so beautiful under the lights. I will say that if you are over 5' 4" or 5' 5" to go with the Long option on this one. I am 5' 4" and it was the perfect length for me,

This dress was great! As others have said, the straps were long, but as long as I kept decent posture, it wasn't a problem. The length was perfect with my 4" heels (as expected). The sequins are matte, which I didn't expect, but I loved. Also, there's a side zipper that gets very smartly concealed by snaps in the top portion of the sequin fabric. All in all, I felt very comfortable in this great dress, the bride was happy with it, and I would rent it again!

Size down for your backup.  I normally wear a 4R, but wore a 2R (I am 5ft4in, 135lbs, and B bust). It is very comfortable!!  Moves beautifully and looks expensive!!  Awesome experience for my first RTR!! 

Though the dress was a little long (I am 5'4"), it fit well everywhere else.  I got compliments all night!

Material was comfy, fit well, and was easy to dance in (one of the more important things)!

Fit like a glove. Very flattering for my figure. I felt gorgeous.

I am usually a 16 but was able to wear the 14L as my lower half is my problem area , the regular was to short with heels . 

I loved this dress. The material is surprisingly a bit stretchy, which was nice. It does run a bit large, especially in the bust area. I wear a 38D bra, and it was a tad baggy on me. But I normally wear an 18 in pants, and the 16L fit me in the torso/butt area perfectly (I have a very... round butt. Lol)  I am 5'8 and the long length was just right for wearing flats. It may have been a little short for my height if I'd had on heels, but I hate heels so it worked out. The only real con of those dress is the straps. They fall down a lot since the top it loose fitting, so I ended up pinning them to be tighter. Other than that, the dress was perfect!

The dress was very comfortable the whole evening whether we were sitting for dinner or dancing the night away. The was a little short for me but I am 6' and wore small silver kitten heels. There wasn't a big difference in the fit between the 2L and the 4L which made me think I could have even worn a 0L but the 2 or 4 worked fine too. The dress runs a little large so I would recommend going down a size. 

The dress was amazing! It was exactly what I needed for a night out on the town! I did not even have to wear heels which was awesome! I also have a rather large chest (38jj) so the fabric was great because that turns into my problem area. I got so many complements that night it will be hard for me not to buy this dress! 

I would usually wear a 6 from RTR but since I was 36 week late pregnant I ordered a 8R and 10P. The 8 felt too snug and the straps were way to long. The 10 fit a lot better and the straps seemed to be already altered. My belly made the dress shorter so I went ahead and wore flats. I received a lot of compliments throughout the night!

Runs a bit big, the 6R was large and I usually wear an 8.  Especially loose around the chest for me (36C cup).  Very pretty and classy gown.  One thing I thought was strange, and maybe I missed it in reviews or the description - on the side of the gown, where the zipper is, the top layer of the gown (with the embellishments) is seperated to make room for the zipper.  this creates a gaping area under your left arm, which I would have tried to close up with a safety pin if I had worn the dress. 

The dress was beautiful but, the straps were way too long and kept slipping off my shoulders all night. The dress runs true to size, despite the others reviews...

Absolutely loved this dress! I'm all about comfort and it was great to wear to a wedding that was an all day affair! I got so many compliments asking where I got the gown and you bet I raved about Rent the Runway!  The only thing I have to say is that the straps were very big and unadjustable. Other than that, great rent!

Overall great fit, though the length was still a bit short even in the Long--hit at bottom of ankle instead of true floor-length, and I'm 5'7". But waist hit just right and the silhouette was great.
The backup size I ordered was not in good condition. The straps were completely stretched out so I couldn't wear it if I wanted to, so that was disappointing as it would have been a more fitted look.

Fit true to size although a little short so I had to go with a long to wear with heels. Was comfortable (for a sequin gown) and looked great with my husband’s blues. 

I rented both the 0R and 2R after looking at reviews and seeing that the sizes ran large. I was a little surprised how snug and without give the middle was. I am currently a bit larger around the middle becuase I am only 3 weeks post-partum, but with some parts of the dress running so big, I expected the middle to also be a bit bigger. It was a bit snug for me, but not uncomfortable. The straps were super long so I had to pin them back, which was fine. The sequins were beautiful and there wasn't any wear on the sequins or stitching. The length was perfect for me, I am 5'2" and I wore shorter heels. This dress was great for our event and made me feel beautiful and comfortable, even at a few weeks post-partum!

The dress fit really well and was beautiful in person. It ran true to size, the only issue was that the straps were WAY too long. I had to safety pin them down to keep the dress on, and had to deal with that all night. Otherwise loved the dress and got a lot of compliments on it at my work holiday party. 

I had recently had a baby so I was worried about the size but it runs large so I was able to wear the 6 instead of 8. The color was a little darker than I'd hope but overall it was perfect. 

I loved this dress (and so did everyone else!) It was just the right balance of glitz and glam without being way over the top. The sequins are matte but they shimmer just enough in the light. The 10 was just the right length for me (I'm 5' 3") and was just loose enough in the body to be comfortable and wasn't feeling like I was going to explode out of it. I was getting compliments on this dress all night and felt fabulous! 

There were a few cons. The straps on this are WAY too long and WAY too flimsy. I definitely had to use safety pins to shorten them and I was freaking out all night that one of the straps were going to snap because they were so thin. I rented the 12R as my back up and let's just say the sizing between the 10 and the 12 is baffling. The 12 was HUGE everywhere, the straps were at least 4 inches longer, so at 5' 3", there was no way I could wear it because there was about 10 inches of dress at the bottom. The sequins do catch a bit on other fabrics so you should be careful with that. But I didn't have any issues or irritation under my arms from them so that's a plus!

Despite the cons, it truly is a beautiful dress and would certainly rent it again!

The dress fit great, got lots of compliments, thought the dress felt cheaply made, but no one knew that. The straps kept falling, but I just kept dancing and I danced all night in this dress! 

I rented this dress for a last minute prom and I could not have been happier. I was initially going to wear the 8L, but the sparkles were faded and and it didn't seem any larger (I think it's been through dry-cleaning too many times). The straps on the dress were very long, but all it took was a couple of safety pins. I would not have gone any shorter in length because the L grazed the ground when I wore heals. The 6L was still a great fit and I got so many compliments throughout the night!

It was very big on me, I had to safety pin several areas of the dress to stay up on me. I ended up getting them to overnight me a 16 which is what I'm wearing in the picture and it was still too big. It's huge in the chest area. I am tall so I ordered up a size  because they were it of long!

The dress was a little large in the back but overall fit very nicely. I'm 5'9' and was very happy that I got the long because otherwise it would have been too short. Also, I had to pin down the straps because they were way too long:

Fit was very comfy and easy- you won't have to be adjusting it all night. It was very pretty. I don't know if I'd call it a showstopper but you won't be disappointed!

Overall i was pleased with the order as it worked perfectly for he black tie wedding I attended in November. The prior reviews were helpful, so I was sure to order up on size. The fit was good & flattering. The proportions of the dress were a little unusual. For instance, the straps were too long, but someone who had rented it before me had pinned them & it worked well for me. And I am 5'6", but the regular length was about 3 inches too short. If the long had been available I would have ordered & it would have been fine. I was comfortable all evening & got lots of compliments. The ordering, shipping, & return set up for RTR is so easy - I will definitely rent from them again! 

I wore this dress for a 1920's fundraiser (and took my own selfie in the bathroom). The dress was totally appropriate and mild, for the theme. I'm 5'6" and today 190lbs. Additionally, I'm probably rocking a size 14 dress. That being said, I sized down to a 12, and also a long (not that long ladies). I had plenty of room, and probably could go down to a 10. I wore 2.5" shoes and the dress barely grazed the ground. I'm not sure how truly tall women would do with this dress. My shape is very rectangular, and this dress wasn't particularly suited to flatter me. HOWEVER, I felt amazing in it! My only complaint is how darn loose the straps were. I messed with them all night. In short, order a long and size down 1-2. 

I'm a curvy girl so it's hard to find a sleek dress that doesn't make me look pregnant lol. This dress is so flattering. The inner lining has a nice stretch to it making it comfortable to wear. Only complaint is that the straps were really long and non adjustable. I ended up having to safety pin them or the straps would have fallen down all night. Overall I received a lot of compliments and I felt good wearing it.
