Too bad I couldn't wear!
After seeing this dress online, I had to have it; it was absolutely perfect! I rented the 16L and the 18R for my senior prom, along with the Glitz gown as the backup. The 16 wouldn't even zip, so I would have had to go with the 18. I am very high waisted (empire waist gowns fit me like natural waist gowns!), so when I first placed the band around my waist, I hated the dress. The bust was loose and bunched up. I pulled the dress down where my waist should be (but isn't) and Tah-Dah, the dress looked 100X better. It was definitely very fitted around that band, but looked lovely. I was not a fan of how low the underarms went (you could almost see my bra), but everything else was fine. It came down to being able to rent this dress again to wear to a formal wedding, etc. vs the Glitz gown, which is a lot more formal. Overall, this is a quality dress and would have worn it given the absence of the waist problems. The regular length was fine without heels, but would have been too short with heels on.

I was called a goddess all night!
Originally, I chose the Badgley Mishka green chiffon gown, but decided to wear this one after receiving both and trying them on, and thank god I did! My senior prom was unforgettable, largely due to this dress! It was so different in a sea of pastel chiffon gowns. The gold is less yellow gold and more rose gold; perfect! Due to my smaller bust, the shoulders were a bit large, so they had to be safety pinned. Other than that, the fit was perfect. I am between 5'5" and 5'6", so with 3-4 inch heels, the long length was perfect. Once I took the heels off, however, the dress was a little long (understandably!). I am so glad I went with this gown! Others had complained of scratchy arms from the sequins, but I had no problem. There was a little give in the fabric, so it was extremely comfortable. Thank you Rent The Runway for an amazing experience!
