Super cute but stiff

I rented this dress for a sorority anniversary gala. Although it fit I ended up using my back up dress instead. As other reviewers stated the silver flowers are sequence so the dress is heavy and stiff. I think if you were attending an event where you didn't have to dance then this would be great but I was worried I would get too hot.

Stylish, Comfortable and Sexy

I rented this dress for a sorority anniversary gala. This was actually my back up dress but ended up being way more comfortable than the one i was planning on wearing. I typically wear size 10 in all rent the run way dresses and I did for this one as well. Fit well without being too snug. The sides of the skit go high in some areas but lower in others so I didn't feel like it was too short. I find a lot of the dresses i don't need to wear a bra with but did for this one since the chest area was a little looser. I was with a boat load of women who all were wearing dresses from rtr and I got a ton of compliments. Would definitely rent this again.

Great Dress for a church Event

We had our son Baptized at 3 months so I was looking for a dress that would be flattering while still hiding the extra baby weight and be church appropriate. A lot of the dresses I have previously rented have low neck lines or are a little short. I discovered this one and while reading reviews discovered several other costumers rented this dress for church events. I was comfortable and loved that it had a slight cap sleeve. It also has pockets! I can normally wear anywhere from an 8-12. This dress only went up to a 10 so rented that was happy that it fit. Others mentioned the zipper was stiff which I agree. I had my husband help zip me up. I would definitely recommend this dress.

Great while pregnant and needing to look nice

I rented this dress for a March wedding while 8 months pregnant. I saw previous reviews and thought it would work perfectly. And it didn't disappoint. I usually rent a size up since I feel most of these designers tend to run a little snug and other reviews of this dress suggested going up a size while pregnant to accommodate the added size. If pregnant I would try to rent the long. Unfortunately only the regular size was available and it worked fine but you could see my feet and I wore flip flops all night. It was really comfortable and has a stretch to it. I probably could have gone a size down but worked. The only thing keeping this from a five star review is it is really really low cut. I tried to pin the front but it didn't look right. Their is no built in support so you have to wear a bra. If you're confident them go for it but I found myself self conscious all night and was pulling up the front a lot. But at the end of the day if you need a dress for a nice occasion and you need it to be bump friendly this dress works great.

Destination wedding in Puta Cana

Beautiful color. Simple shift dress that was perfect for a tropical destination wedding. I'm normally a size 10 but wore the size 8 and still had a loose fit to it. Easy to move in and looked good in photos. I don't normally get shift dresses because I feel like I'm wearing a bag but I felt comfortable and beautiful. I didn't want to wear anything too tight in that heat and in sand. Got a lot of compliments.

Fun warehouse wedding in Wisconsin

Fit really well. I'm a size 10 and wore a size 10. Didn't have to wear a bra and was well supported. Fun bright colors and had pockets! Got lots of compliments and was fun to dance in. My only complaint of the dress is it could really use a clasp where the zipper is. The zipper kept sliding down as I danced. Not a lot, like 1/2 inch but enough that my husband kept tugging it back up otherwise great dress. Loved it.

Beautiful dress for a fall wedding

Was snug enough that I didn't have to wear a bra but still not too tight. I am a size 10 and wore the 10. I got so many compliments on this dress and it photographed really well. The colors were perfect for a fall wedding. The only thing that would of made this dress better is if it had pockets but I guess I can't expect all dresses to have pockets. I was invited to a wedding last minute because a friend's date dropped out and ordered this dress onlyv1 week before the event and was happy to still be able to find a dress I not only liked but in my size in such short notice during peek wedding season. Another successful rental!

Fun Friday night wedding

I loved this dress and felt beautiful in it. Was able to dance all night and got so many compliments. Now for the facts. This was the second dress from this designer I have rented and both times I rented a size 10. The first time the dress fit perfectly. However this time it was super tight in my chest. I originally tried to wear a bra but discovered I was unable to zip it up unless I took it off. Unlike a lot of dresses if was still loose in the stomach area so no worries about eating but no deep breaths were taken all night. I'm a size c cup but this dress might be suited better for smaller chested women. I recommend if you rent this one get a size up as your second option.

A beautiful fall outdoor wedding with reception in an open barn over looking a beautiful field

I had just had my son 6 months ago and still have some baby weight so none of my dresses fit me at the moment. A friend recommended rent the run way and I'm so glad they did. I rented a 10 not knowing how it would fit and they didn't have a size up or down so I just hoped for the best. It fit perfectly. Some reviewers said they wore a bra but I didn't and I felt secure and had no concerns of popping out while dancing the night away. I got so many compliments and after such a great experience I would use rent the run way again.
