Wore this to a charity gala with a mink shawl. I felt so beautiful and most of all ------ COMFORTABLE!   This is such a versatile dress that can be used for so many occasions. You can most definitely dress it up or down. It was very light and comfortable. I loved the pockets as well. It made me want to twirl like I was a little girl again. I highly recommend and want to purchase one to own!  

Lightweight, I liked the pleats, but nothing special. Very easy to wear, could be dressed up but it worked for everyday. I can't tell if the embroideried/smocking detail at the front was supposed to be asymmetrical but I didn't particularly like it. 

Rented after seeing it on a coworker who also Rents the Runway. Soft and flowy, felt fancy and got lots of compliments.

Gorgeous dress that fit my 5"1 height. Really beautiful, chic and a dream to wear. Will definitely rent again.

A teeny bit tight under the armpit, but not enough to make me love it any less!

This dress was a legend. As expected, there is a TON of fabric. The pleats laid beautifully and did not wrinkle when I sat down. I loved the hidden slit on the far left side of the skirt - you can't see it when standing but it was helpful to cool down when I sat in between dances. I didn't use the pockets to hold any items but they were fun for pictures and dancing. A normal bra nearly worked, but I went with strapless so I didn't have to worry about a strap peeking out. 

The hem (on the XXS) hit right at my ankle. I wore the dress with both 5" wedges and 2.5" strappy heels, and thought the height of the wedges helped offset and enhance the trapeze effect. 

Overall, I can't wait to rent this again!!

This dress has a huge wow factor.  It is beautiful and can be dressed up or worn with sandals. It’s dressy, but I wore it to work.  It is so comfortable and even has deep pockets!  There is a lining at the top part of the dress, so it feels substantial. I wore a half slip because I felt it might be too sheer in certain lights.   The dress flows and moves beautifully, and I felt like a million bucks in it!  I think it would be flattering on most body types because if the way is both form fitting at the top, but flows at the bottom.  

A lot of fabric. 

Great pleats and overall movement but made me look wider. 

Pockets. Comfortable. TTS. 

I could wear with flats. Probably not petite friendly. 

Top half lined. 

I did not keep this rental but thought a review might be helpful for others. The neckline is beautifully smocked which is hard to see in the photos.  It's a well-made quality dress, with a half lining in the bust area. The entire thing is pleated, so there is a lot of fabric, which is light and moves in a nice way as you walk. However, this dress made me feel huge. I rented for my baby shower while 8 months pregnant and decided it was just too tent-like to make me feel good. However, I probably would have liked it on my normal non-pregnant body, as I tend to like these modern boxy shapes. My pre-pregnancy weight is 145 and I'm 160 in this photo, so not that big, but yowza! Hard to tell!

Easy to wear dress that can be dressed up or down. I wore this with a denim jacket whilst on vacation 

I liked this a lot but probably wouldn't of worn it to the party. I got this as a back up of nothing else dit but I didn't wear it. Would order again for another occasion

I should have sized up. It has this lining under the chest area and it was just way too tight. But otherwise loved the dress!

I did not fit the small so I didn't wear it.

Lots of fabric but it is flowy and elegant

Oftentimes pleated dresses are super flattering but for some reason this one had a widening effect. Maybe was the cut of the neckline/ shoulders, maybe was my bust size, maybe both. I wore it to both work and a rehearsal dinner so it's a good one to have for different types of events. Would probably look better on someone with a smaller chest

Fit was awkward. I wore once for daytime casual but didn’t care for. Arms / shoulders were tight but also sat really high. Flare out would have been fine if the arms / neckline fit was better. 

I love the looks of this dress but even the small made me look absolutely huge from the side! Wouldn't recommend 

This dress has a weird sheath inside of it that is so tight and weirdly short. I didn't wear this and I returned it immediately.

I would have loved this dress if it weren't for the arm holes being to high. The dress itself was beautiful and ran big, but the arm holes were too high up making the dress impossible to wear. I wanted to wear it!

... I love loose midi dresses, but this one was just weird. 1) The fit was completely off, 2) Too much cloth, 3) The half lining makes the top even more bulky. A rare disappointment from Vince!

I'll start by saying i didn't have high hopes to begin with. Was looking for a loungy dress but this looked terrible on. The front stitch work was a big no for me 

I loved this dress so much I bought it. Just perfect - flattering, comfortable and fabulous. Absolutely lovely!

Float and forgiving beautiful dress you can play up or down I wore it for work and loved it

This is the perfect dress.  It's effortless yet classic, chique and witchy in all the best ways.  Get ready for tons of compliments while you wear what feels like a silky nightgown.  I may purchase this one to have forever. 

If you're going for comfort, this dress will impress. Otherwise I found it a bit average/tent-like

Simple dress that flows dramatically.  Cool.  I do recommend wearing with shapewear on the bottom - the dress can "stick" in the wrong places sometimes.

It's a tent, but it's so chic and so pretty. I felt so comfortable. I added a tiny silk belt for some shape. Paired with a black blazer (for indoor office AC) and little black mules. Loved!

This dress is beautiful and flowy. It's perfect for a summer day at the office! Only slight issue is that they arm holes are a bit small, but I only say that so that if you are between sizes, go up. You can also have a lot of fun accessorizing this dress!

I wore this at 33 weeks pregnant and still had plenty of space to spare (pre-pregnancy size was a 6, but I got an L in this dress). Loose, but comfortable/flattering fit for a preggo! Would probably work in the final weeks of pregnancy, just as well as now. If I were my regular size, I'd probably size down to an S.

love this dress, it looks great, felt comfortable.  I wore it for my sisters birthday lunch and for a day in the office.  it is very voluminous, so it could be overwhelming on someone petite or feel like a maternity dress if you have any stomach issues.  It's perfect for a tall pear shaped person like me!  

Its hard to tell from the pics, but this def runs on the more casual side. I wore it to a music festival with tennis shoes and a jean jacket. It was perfect. I would absolutely rent this again. I am an hourglass 12 5'4 and the fit was great. The only minor thing was the dress comes with a string/rope belt of the same fabric (not sure how else to describe it) and that was not included in the shipment which was fine bc I probably wouldn't have worn it anyway. 

Wore this with gold jewelry and fancy heeled sandals to the theater and it was so comfortable and so cute. Pleats fall beautifully. Pockets!! It'll be hard to return it. 

At first I thought this dress was ridiculous and oversized but I decided to wear it anyway. It grew on me quickly. It moves so nicely and is incredibly comfortable. I received so many compliments on it. I would totally rent again.  

Nice details like slits and pockets (!!!) that aren’t noticeable in the photo. Nice movement. Several compliments. If you have a larger cup size don’t make the mistake I did of sizing down. There is a top liner that only goes to the stomach that is very fitted and not stretchy at all.
