Fun jumpsuit for fall wedding
Had a lot of fun wearing this jumpsuit and received many compliments. The pattern is unique and felt appropriate for a cocktail attire. I am heavier chested and wore lots of boob tape. Needed quite a bit of fashion tape as well to keep the top from slipping, which is why this is 4/5 stars. But overall this was a fun outfit and very comfortable!!

Great dress but needs work
I wore this dress for my bridal shower and it was exactly what I wanted! 4 stars because the dress ran super small and required a lot of fashion tape and safety pins so that I wouldn't flash everyone. Once I was strapped in and secure I really enjoyed wearing this dress and would wear it again!

Great dress for black tie wedding
I loved wearing this dress! I got lots of compliments. I was expecting it to be a wine color but it was more purple in person & in pictures. It was too long on me but we made it work for the evening. I wore shapewear comfortably underneath. A decent amount of boob tape was also necessary but it was easy to conceal and I felt supported all evening. RTR had great customer service when there was an issue with the original order. Overall very pleased with this dress and glad I got to wear it!

Perfect for a fall wedding!
Absolutely loved wearing this jumpsuit and wish I could wear it again! Favorite rental so far. It was very comfortable for the long day & evening and fit perfectly. I got lots of compliments and felt really confident in it. It fit my hourglass shape really well even with the baggy pants. The legs were just a little long on me, but I wore 2 inch heels and it was manageable. Might be better with higher heels, but worked out just fine!! Great evening, great jumpsuit!

Fun dress!
I felt like a flamenco dancer in this dress! I would have worn it but it didn't match the other bridesmaid's dresses as well as my first option, so I chose not to wear this one. Would love to rent it for another occasion!

Comfortable and fun dress
I wore this dress to my friend's black tie optional wedding in late August. It was a comfortable dress and perfect to travel with because it didn't wrinkle. I have a large bust and this was my first time trying boob tape, and I was really pleased with how the dress kept me feeling covered the whole evening. The straps are not adjustable, so I was lucky that the 8 fit well. I liked the halter-style of the back as well.

Very comfortable and beautiful dress!
I rented this dress to chaperone a high school prom and it was the perfect choice for the combination of a formal affair and a work event. The material was not what I expected (very stretchy) but it didn't look off at all. The floral design was really pretty and elegant in photos, plus it was so easy to move around in when putting up all the decorations, etc. Would definitely recommend this dress and would wear it again, it was great!

The perfect dress for an outdoor wedding!
I loved this dress so much for my friend's outdoor wedding. The smaller size 8 became unavailable for some reason (I ordered the rental months in advance) so I had to choose a new backup, but I went with the larger size anyway. It was a little baggy but worked really well and wasn't too short, when the 8 might have been. It was a really fun dress that I paired with yellow earrings and bright pink lipstick. Super lightweight, super comfortable, really fun with a unique slit in the side. Looks great in pictures and I got a ton of compliments all night. My favorite rental so far through RTR for sure. Loved it so much I bought it on ebay!

Elegant dress!
I wore this dress to chaperone prom; my students picked it out for me! It wouldn't be something I'd normally choose for myself because it's very form-fitting, but I got a lot of compliments throughout the evening from both students and adults. The slit wasn't too high so I still felt appropriately modest. There was a big difference between the 8 and the 10 - I wore the 8 even though it felt tight and a little short, especially with heels, but the 10 was pretty loose on me and way too long. The dress was great for an hourglass shape, although I was quite constricted in the arms and didn't like that. I also think the shoulder straps drew attention to my broad shoulders, so if you're bigger on top it only accentuates it more. Overall, though, this was a nice dress for a fancy evening out!

Fun and unique dress
I enjoyed wearing this dress to a bat mitzvah. I am usually an 8 or a 10 but ordered a 10 with 12 as a backup, and wore the 10. It fit really well. I loved the sleeves and pockets especially, which made the dress feel even more comfortable. I also thought the color was really fun as I usually wear mostly dark colors (black), and the style allowed for a lot of jewelry options - I chose a gold statement necklace. My only complaint about this dress is that I am quite hourglass, so the pleating made me look larger in the stomach/waist area from some angles. Overall I enjoyed wearing it a lot though and would for sure wear it again!

Perfect for Chaperoning Prom
This dress was perfect to chaperone a prom with a Roaring 20's theme. It ran big, so I went with the smaller size. It was super forgivable and comfortable for a long evening. I didn't love the cut in the shoulder area, but it was fine for the style of the dress. And it photographed really well! Overall, I loved this rental!

A fun dress but runs small!
I'm normally an 8 but I went with the 10 so I could be more comfortable dancing and sitting during my friend's wedding. The dress is short but I had no trouble with the larger size. I had some issues getting the dress from UPS (it arrived a few days late) so I'm glad I did an extended rental. The 10 had a large rip in the seam, so I was not happy with my first experience with Rent the Runway. I ended up using safety pins on the side - luckily the sequins hid them nicely and no one could tell. Ultimately this dress is beautiful, fun, and was perfect for my friend's wedding. Just wished that it arrived on time without the damage.
