A stunning dress that fits in all the right places!
I received so many compliments about this dress. It was perfect for a black tie spring wedding. The way the dress is, you really can make it as tight or as loose as you want. Great option!

Comfortable and Flattering!
I wore this for a December wedding and it was the perfect combination of warm, yet cool. It was incredibly comfortable and flattering. I received many compliments! Great option for a winter wedding or formal affair.

GREAT Maternity Option!
I was incredibly nervous about renting a dress for my brother-in-law's wedding at 31 weeks pregnant, but refused to purchase a dress I would wear one time. And this ended up being a wonderful option! The reviews on this dress really helped me nail down what sizes to order. I typically wear a size 4 in RTR dresses, but ordered sizes 6 and 8 based on previous reviews of the dress and knowing I had a 31-week pregnant belly. I ended up wearing the size 8 because it was just a tad roomier. It fit like a glove and I didn't feel the need to wear Spanx underneath which was great because the thickness of the dress was very warm (great for a December wedding!). I received compliments all night long and that felt great, too! I HIGHLY recommend this dress for all pregnant mommas who want to feel beautiful at a formal event.

Made me feel beautiful!
I typically wear a 4 but had to wear the 6 due to the waste of the dress being really tight. It fit very well, though! I rented the regular and it was still very long. I'm 5,6" and wore 3" heels and it was just barely above the ground. I had to pull the dress up to walk around, especially going up stairs. Be careful walking up stairs as it's pretty easy to trip on the dress. I got endless compliments, especially because I was the only person in a striking red dress at this October wedding. I absolutely recommend!

Stood out!
This bracelet is stunning and really stood out from the rest of the outfit. Opening and closing the bracelet isn't super easy, but it stays clasped all night and was the perfect addition.

Beautiful dress and fit!
I typically wear a 4 with a padded bra and the 4 in this dress seemed a bit big in the top. Had I gotten the 2 as my second size, I probably would have worn it. That being said, the dress was SO comfortable and easy to wear. It hit all the right spots to hide imperfections and show off what looks great. I also met Tony Goldwyn in this dress so that helped me feel even more great :)

Such a fun dress and lots of compliments!
I actually didn't have nearly the issue with the zipper that I've been reading horror stories about. I got it zipped up all by myself! I had a friend button the top button, though. I ordered a 4R and 6R and ended up going with the 4R. The 6R fit a little more comfortably in the waste (the band is pretty tight) but the fabric between my chest and waste was loose and it made it look big. So, I sucked it up and went with a little tighter waste. It really only bothered me while I was sitting down. The long flow of the dress made is so comfortable to dance in. The only sad part was that the arm holes were tight enough to not allow me to raise my hands during songs that required them being raised! The arm holes were tight just resting my arms, though, so if you don't have plans to raise your arms you should be good. Overall I absolutely loved it and would certainly net it again if the opportunity presented itself!

This dress will turn heads!
The dress I initially ordered for my friend's Debutante ended up being ruined by the previous wearer. That being said, Rent The Runway (with their incredible customer service) sent along this dress in its place. I was a little annoyed that I wasn't getting the dress I wanted, but as soon as I put this dress on I knew it was for the better! The color is absolutely stunning and the way the dress fit my body was like a glove. My boyfriend certainly appreciated it! Because the dress is so inovlved, the need for much jewelry is not there (which is nice because I am not a big jewelry wearer). I was so comfortable in this dress all 7 hours I wore it. I HIGHLY recommend trying it out if you're going to a formal function. Best decision ever.
