Not super flattering but very cool and comfy
Love this dress. Of all the rentals I ordered it doesn't even look the best on me, but I still really like it and wore to a wedding. Beware that lifting up your arms will cause the whole dress to shift and need resetting. FYI my weight fluctuates a lot so I'm closer to 148lbs in this photo.

Fun, Flattering, Forgiving
Overall this fit was a hit! Lots of compliments and the material is thick and stretchy. Docking a point because the clasp at the top of the zipper snagged my updo all night and because the material is so heavy that no amount of fashion tape would be able to shorten the pants. My weight fluctuates a lot so FYI in these photos I'm closer to 148lbs and the 10 was a good fit.

Comfy and fun but still formal and flattering!
I'm short so even in heels this touched the floor. Loved it though - comfy enough to dance hard, and flattering enough to take nicer/more formal photos.

Elegant and fun and comfortable! Wear a nude bra!
I looked forward to wearing this dress for literal months, and it did not disappoint. I wore heels at my 5'1" height and it still kissed the floor. Comfortable for dancing and I got so many compliments! I didn't have a subtle enough bra as I would have liked, but I think it worked out just fine.

So fun but also made for stick people
We wanted to like this one so much more but it just didn't make the cut. Also there is no way to hide the bra band - going to hav to figure out another way. Arm holes and neck hole weirdly tight.

Size according to your underbust! And heighT
This is a hell of a dress and I wish it had fit, but the one fitted part of the dress is the area around your ribcage and I was not able to zip this dress up at all. Wear a band size 32/34 and a size 8 was not close. Would have reordered a 12 I think. Also note the slit is HIGH!

"It's giving coveralls" - my bestie
Not particularly flattering on me and the fabric would need to be steamed after traveling. You might need to have a body that already looks good in a potato sack to pull this off. Possibly would have helped if I was taller and the length hit just a bit higher on my legs. noticably tight on my larger bust.

Rent the Runway wants you to shine and, with them, you do!
My RTR experience was perfect. I must praise this company to the highest amount--with them, your night will be magical. The extra dress dice turned out to be a great, and necessary, idea as I guessed incorrectly and needed a smaller size (probably because the fabric is pretty stretchy) which I had ready for me. Soooooo may compliments on this dress--it's fun, sophisticated, and easy to wear. I have short shoulders, so I usually struggle with straps falling off, but that was not a problem my prom night. Bra straps disappeared as well with the strap holders (a very well-made dress). Only one area of caution: if you wear sparkle, rhinestone, scrappy shoes like I did, BEWARE because they will snag the dress. I was worried about this all night (I'm short, so it was nearly dragging anyway), but the bottom of the dress held up just fine. You just might trip a few times. All in all, beautiful dress, great company, I will be a repeat customer.
