Cute but wasn’t perfect fit
I wore this dress to a welcome party and really liked it. The pattern/color/silk fabric is beautiful and the handkerchief look on top is so flattering. However the sizing was a bit off. I’m an 8 and got my normal M and while the hips were spot on for comfortable loose fit, the waist was giant (though it was hidden by the top). Overall would recommend but might need a safety pin or two!

Loved it but size up x1-2 sizes!
I felt great and got so many compliments on this dress! But my normal size is 8 / M and I’m wearing an XL (and it’s only a little loose in the bust) so definitely size up! I agree with other reviews that the waist on this dress is tiny.

So cute but order up 2 sizes
I order up one size and I still couldn’t sit or bend down. It’s super cute but go up 2 sizes if you want to feel normal

Bad fit for big boobs
The top of this was such a weird shape on me and wasn’t flattering on my top (34DD). There was lots of extra fabric above the waistband

Cute but weird fabric
Liked this dress but couldn’t wear a bra and the fabric was a weird wrinkly seersucker so the skirt bubbles out. Sort of an awkward length on me just below the knee. Could’ve been good with a good steam but wasn’t that excited about it.

Liked these shorts for a fun summer afternoon look. I went up one size to 10 and the waist was still snug on my waist so size up one or two

Barbie fun
Wore this to a party and felt amazing. I’m between 6/8 and sized up to the L for more room and I’m happy I did. Wore it with a strapless bra. It’s definitely sexy and fun

Super fun
Great dress for Barbie movie party. The fabric is stretchy cotton so it’s a little harder to dress up than I thought and the tie across the waist can’t come off. Overall liked it!

Not flattering on me
Too revealing on top and bottom for me and I felt that the sheen of the fabric was unflattering on my curves. Would be better on thin or short women.

Show stopper! I want to buy
One of the best dresses I’ve gotten from RTR! It’s so versatile to be dressed up or down. I’m btw size 8 and 10, but went with the 10 for a more flowy look. Wish I could buy it

Love it
I’m between a size 8 and 10 but this dress is so well tailored that the looser 10 still looks curvy and beautiful. It’s definitely for spring with the bright colors and ruffles but neither are too extreme (the yellow is beautiful and soft in person). So happy I bought it!

Too long
Considered this for a rehearsal dinner but didn’t end up wearing it because the very long legs made it look like pajamas. I think I should have sized down

I managed to wear this once but it was very tight around the waist and not that flattering on my curves. It was a good idea stmt wise but didn’t work on me

Loved this statement LBD
Had so much fun wearing this little black dress. The sweater material was very forgiving while also holding in place. I used some clothing tape to hold it up in the right place and wore a strapless bra. Lost of compliments and felt very spunky

Very weird cut / not for busty girls
I was very confused by the cut of this dress. It was so short from shoulders to breasts. Don't rent if you have above an A or B cup

Matronly fit
Was hoping for flowy spring dress but the top was too small/short and the arm hole was so small. Might be better for an occasions where you don’t want to be super modest but too matronly for me

Ok dress
This dress is ok. It was too short on me (5'8") and the fabric was thicker than I expected. It took me forever to find the tiny hole to pass through the wrap string through haha

Comfy easy dress
Wore this dress so many times. It's a loose casual cut which meant I could wear it anywhere from dinner to the grocery store. I ordered many sizes small and it still fit loose.

Very loud top
This too ended up being too loud for me. The volume around the neck and shoulders was too dramatic for me and not ask flattering as I hoped. I think it might have worked on a thinner smaller frame because im DD chest

Super cute but size up 1-2 sizes!
I love this dress and might end up buying it, but I sized up just 1 size and wish I had sized up 2 sizes. It's very tight in the waist and I have a large bust so it pulled the waist up. Overall such a beautiful feminine dress with great shape. I liked that the lining stayed down even when the wind blew since it was a bit on the short side.

Good fall dress but runs large and is a little itchy
I was torn on this dress. On the one hand with some heels it looked fierce but if not it swallowed you up and didn't add much. I also found it pretty itchy so not good for a relaxing day. Should have ordered a size down to help it look more flattering. It's very stretchy.

Cute but wish I had sized up
Beautiful color on this skirt that's easy to dress up or down. I wish I had ordered a size up because the waist band was way tighter than the rest of the skirt. I ended up being able to not zip it all the way to the top and hide it under the strap but otherwise it would've dug into my waist. Would rent again a size bigger

Not for tall or DD cup
I wore this under a Jean jacket and it was fine but the waist was way too high on me so it looked unflattering. I loved the fabric and style though. Better for shorter women A-C cup

Loved this sleek romper
Wore this several time on my vacation to Florida. I liked the thick material and high quality finish. Easy to dress up or down. I'm tall so I ordered a size up and I'm glad I did because I liked the casual looser fit and avoided any issues with short crotch. I might buy this one, it's great!

Good for Easter mass, annoying shoulder slips
I enjoyed wearing this to mass though I think I would've looked like a grandma wearing it anywhere else. You'll need fashion tape to hold the shoulders in place

So bright and cute but not for tall girls
I wore this to my summer birthday party and it was so cute but I had to loosen the straps all the way and tape it to my boobs so it wouldn't be too revealing. All in all I think it's not made for 5'8" women or if you do be ready for some wedgies...

Gorgeous!
Beautiful lilac/blush pink color and really comfortable. I sized up to an 8 based on the reviews and I'm glad I did. The slit was a little more open than I anticipated and I don't think I could've worn it to a black tie wedding but it worked perfect for a semi formal wedding. I wish that the 8R was available because the 8L I got was a little too long even in 2" heels (I'm 5'8"). Overall would highly recommend!

Felt like a princess but large in the bust area
I had a blast wearing this modern day princess dress to a hot summer wedding. It was true to size through the waist for me (29/30" waist 6R athletic build). I agree with other reviews that this dress is very large in the bust. Even my 34D cup with a padded strapless bra didn't fill the top all the way and I used fashion tape to keep it closed. Would recommend to DD and up ladies but it's so fun to wear!!

Great dress! Beautiful color and super comfy, but was pretty short...
I really liked this dress. The color is amazing and its super comfy. My only complaint was that it's very short. This was my first experience with Rent the Runway, and I will definitely be using the site again!
