Cute, but the straps were too long
I took a chance and ordered a large for this dress rather than my usual medium. The body of the dress fit perfectly, and it’s so well-made and beautiful. However, the straps were way too long. I ended up pinning them to my shapewear, but they still drooped down the back. People complimented the dress, but I didn’t feel super confident because of the straps. It might’ve been better to order my usual size.

Barbie vibes
I wore this to a Barbie-themed bachelorette party, and I felt really cute! I did wear shapewear underneath to help smooth out my curves a bit, and I think that helped with the fit.

Love these, wish I could buy
Wish I could buy these, but the price is a bit ridiculous in my opinion! I may find some similar ones on Etsy though because they’re so cute.

Super cute, especially if you’re into cottage style
I thought about buying this because it fit so well, but ultimately felt like it wasn’t my true style. However, it was still really cute and I did get a couple compliments on it.

Super cute, but the arms were too big
These were sooo cute and looked great on my face. However, the arms were spread way too far apart to fit me right. When I wore them, they’d fly off if I looked down or around too fast.

Super cute but too big
This was my first time using the RTR membership, and I didn’t notice that it defaulted to my backup size because my primary size wasn’t available. The jumpsuit was way too big on me, but I wore it anyway by wearing a jean jacket over it. I would actually love to rent this again and maybe buy it, but I would definitely get a medium! I actually got compliments, even with the jacket over top.

Beautiful, classic dress!
I wore this to a rehearsal dinner, and I got so many compliments! I felt that it complimented my body type pretty well. I think getting a size 10 might’ve left me more room in my tummy area and on the arms, but it also might’ve been too baggy. So overall, I’m ok that I went with the 8! Even though it wasn’t a perfect fit, I still felt confident and absolutely love the color, style, and quality.

Too big, couldn’t wear
I ordered my usual size, but it was too big. I recommend going down a size!

Too big
This was my first time using the rent the runway membership. I thought it would default to my actual size, but it looks like this was only available in my back up size. It was way too large to wear. I had the same problem with another item in my first shipment, which was a bummer because I felt like I wasted some money. I recommend only ordering items through the membership that are your true size.

Beautiful, classic dress!
I ordered a size 8 and size 10 and went with the 8! It’s a form-fitting dress, but runs true to size. I got a lot of compliments on it!
