This was a perfect fitting dress. It fit in the breast area and I had room for my hips. The only thing lacking are pockets. I received so many compliments during the gala!

Too large/not worn
The dress was WAY too large in the breast area and I couldn’t wear the dress to the gala. Otherwise beautiful dress. I ordered an emergency size small but it didn’t arrive in time for the event.

Gorgeous Dress!
Gorgeous dress. Perfect fit. I have a pear shape. This dress worked well. I have a small chest so this works for me. If you have big breaths be mindful of the low cut. The dress for wonderfully. I’d rent it again!!

Get fitting dress
When they offer this dress for sell, I’ll buy it. I only hate I didn’t take a picture in the dress. It’s a lovely & comfortable fitting dress. IT HAS POCKETS!! I wore it to a meeting and the length was acceptable. Overall a great dress. I’m a pear shaped woman and it worked!

Beautiful dress not right for my body
The dress was the perfect color it was just too tight for my hips and waist. Maybe another time I’ll wear this dress but not this occasion. This is the first RTR dress that didn’t work out for me. A bigger size would have swallowed me. I just need to lose a few pounds to wear this dress. Oh well

Slate & Willow never disappoints
As the title says, Slate & Willow never disappoints. The green color was outstanding. The fit was perfect. The only other thing to say is POCKETS.

Perfect Derby Dress
I rented this dress for a Derby event. The fit was perfect for my pear shaped body. I am not heavy chested so the dress was a little loose at the top but it wasn't noticeable to anyone but me. The fit was good around the waist and hips. The length was below knee. The color popped. Great dress

So many compliments!!
I rented this dress for a Harlem Nights Theme party. It arrived one day late but thankfully I rented it two days before the party. I rented the size 4 and 6. I tried on the 6 and it fit but felt a little big in the waist area. The 4 fit perfectly. I am a 34B bust, 31 waist and 44 hips!!! I’m athletic build and the 4 fit perfectly all night. No shapeware necessary. Gréât dress.

Royalty
I felt like royalty in this dress and it has POCKETS!!! The dress is a true to size fit. I wear a size 4-6. I’m a pear shape with Athletic build. 5'6 and 150 lbs. The 6R fit perfect. No bra necessary. The side zipper was tricking zipping up. I definitely needed help. Otherwise no further issues. I love the dress and it's my second time renting it. I wore the same dress , different color about 3 years ago.

Perfection!
This is the absolute BEST dress I’ve rented from Rent the Runway. It fit me like a glove. Just perfect. This is a size 4. My regular size. So it’s definitely true to size. I’m a pear shape, small breasts and hippy hips and this dress worked both without problems. I wore a small push up bra and that was all that was needed. I was able to zip up the dress by myself unlike some dresses. The dress moved with me and I was able to dance all night. The length was perfect with heels. I received so many compliments and truly hated taking the dress off. This is my second Slate & Willow dress and I now know that Slate & Willow dresses fit my body shape just right. Perfection!

Gorgeous details
Thé dress is absolutely gorgeous. Pros: it has some give and stretch. The dress moves when you move. No bra is needed. You’ll receive a ton of compliments! It’s a classy but sexy dress. Cons: be aware, you can not zip the dress up yourself. You will need help. You will also need help getting out of the dress. If you are a pear Shape, order your size and a size up just to be on the safe side. I ordered the 4 & 6. Thé 6 fit better around the hips but thé 4 fit better around the breasts and waist. I wore the 4.

I felt like a movie star!
I wore this dress to the Margarita Ball. I felt like I was dressed for the Oscars or Emmys. I received so many compliments. The dress fit perfectly. There was enough stretch for women who are slightly hippy. I’m pear shaped (small top, curvy bottom) and the dress still fit well. I am normally a size 4 and this dress worked!!

I felt like Cinderella!!!
Pros: the dress is perfect. Off the shoulder, fitted waist, flows nicely from the waist down. I received so many compliments. The pockets are an added bonus. I truly felt like Cinderella. I didn't want to take the dress off. I looked at all the pictures before renting and I determined that this dress would work for my body type. No bra was necessary. I wore 3" high heels. The zipper didn't stick (a noted complaint from other renters). I have a small chest , tiny waist but I'm hippy. Basically a pear shape but slightly athletic. I'm a size 4 and the 4R fit perfect. This dress made me feel regal. Cons: absolutely none
