I received many compliments on this dress. I would rent it again. It was very comfortable. The biggest problem was trying to figure out how to put it on! Took me a few minutes. I went with the large because my arms a bit bigger and it kept pulling open the button on the front at chest level. Other than that the medium was great fit. I wore this to a bridal shower. Light material.

Not my favorite but still nice
I would say this dress has some extra room in it. I wore the smaller of 2 sizes rented. I wasn't a fan of the straps, I felt like they kept bunching up. Dress was comfortable overall but didn't love it enough where I'd consider renting it again.
Summer Lovin Swirl Dress

Soft and comfortable
I agree with many others that this dress runs large. Super soft material and pockets make this a nice summer dress. The front can be a bit revealing, I just tied it tighter. I have a larger bottom and it fit nicely over that :) Overall I liked the dress and would rent it again.

Lots of compliments!
I've rented a lot of dresses and this is one of my favorites. I received many complements and even from random people in the hotel elevators. I have a large bottom and I felt like this material helped conceal that. Stretchy, thick material. Probably not the best for a hot summer day but I got lucky with a cool June night. Like some others said the back does not stay zippered. I had a friend use a safety pin at the top to keep it shut and worked great all night. I am 5'5" and was comfortable with the length. Would absolutely rent the dress again. Sleeves didn't bother me at all, was just careful during dinner.
Black Janis Dress

Wedding rehearsal
I enjoyed this dress, but it was not as forgiving as I'd hoped. Semi thicker material. Loved the sleeves and the design on the front. It just had shown a few more of my lumps than I'd hoped. As a safe fail I'd rent again. Probably size up because not much give in the material.

Many compliments!
This is a very forgiving dress. I would size up if you have a larger chest or arms. The waste to bottom is very forgiving. I would rent this again. Warm material / forgiving material. I had received so many compliments. Sexy but classy.

Little black dress
I was struggling to find a LBD that wasn't going to hug all my curves. This was the perfect fit. I would say size down as it ran large. Thicker material kept me warm on a cool summer night. Extra details on the dress are better seen in person! Great dress. My only complain is it was kind of like a bag. If the sides were taken in just slightly it would still be loose yet have a few more curves. Would rent again!
Twiggs Dress

Day time dress
This dress ran large due to its loose fit. The fabric is incredibly soft, almost like a night gown. The front V is adjustable by a zipper. Great material for an outdoor event, such as horse racing in Saratoga! Would definitely rent again.

Forgiving material
I thought this dress fit well. Thicker material, which made it forgiving. I had no problem with the bust area or my bottom which is huge. Would definitely rent the dress again.
Hannelli Dress

Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 8

Warm for a winter wedding!
Overall this dress is nice. Personally I wouldn't rent again unless I dropped a few pounds. Forgiving fabric as it is thick but that also made it tight. The V on the chest was much deeper than I thought! I don't usually show off much anymore so that made me a bit uncomfortable but I made it through the night :) I have a large bottom so I had to size up for more comfort as it was tight around there. Overall a really nice dress but just not for me again.
Love At First Sight Dress
Z Spoke Zac Posen

Great for the track!
The material is a bit thicker so it was warm on a hot and sunny day. I have a large bottom so the dress was tight around my hips and butt, but the top fit well. I could have worn the next size up but it would have been loose around the top. I would have to say this was in my top 5 of all the rentals I've done. Comfortable dress. I wore a regular bra and for the most part it didn't show, just slightly. Several compliments. Would definitely rent this dress again.

Wanted to keep it!
Wore this for my wedding shower and bachelorette party. Received so many compliments on the dress! I wore the size 10 to just have some wiggle room, the 8 fit but I knew I was going to be eating and drinking all day long so I wanted the extra space. I am 5'5" and 155 pounds, curvy. I was nervous it wasn't going to be flattering but it was perfect, I couldn't have felt more comfortable. My biggest complaint neither of the dresses showed up with the slip so I had to go out and buy one. I called RTR and they compensated me for the issue so that was great! I have rented several times and will continue to do so. Would rent this dress again!

Another successful rental
Overall very happy with this rental. Rented for a formal barn wedding in Vermont in late September. Biggest con.. the dress smelt weird upon arrival, my guess was it was the material. I just took it out of the bag and let it air out for the day and it got better. Dress is good for cooler weather, it's not breathable when you sweat. I'm 5'5" and the length was good, a little short but I felt comfortable, could have been worse. The green was slightly darker than I expected but I was happy with that as I did not want to be bright and stick out at the wedding. I would rent this dress again.

It was perfect!
I would totally rent this same dress again, amazing first Rent the Runway experience. Wore it to the horse races - fit the scene well. Would also be great for a baby/bridal shower. Loved the color and fit. The bottom flowed out well for my huge butt. Fit my chest well. The dress also had pockets- that was awesome. Had to wear a strapless bra which I was slightly bummed about but that went fine. had several compliments on the dress and did not hesitate telling people that it was rented!
