Standout alternative for a formal!
This piece is amazing! I had a million compliments and it was insanely comfortable. The only caveat I would say is to buy wardrobe tape for the top because the fabric is a bit heavy and can roll. Other than that it is SO wearable and photographs well which we all know is a hard combo to come by.

Runs Large!
The fabric and cut on this is pretty. But the top fit really small and the hips were really large! Im probably just not the right shape for it. I think it would be a great fit on a curvier gal!

Timeless Elegance
I wore this to a Rodeo gala. I doubt Christian Siriano evisioned getting that type of mileage out of it but it was perfect. Its a confortable fit and transitions from sitting to dancing easily. The train can be a bit tricky going downstairs so make sure you have help. Ran a little large and u have to watch out for lines. But tons of compliments all night on it.

Love, but a little lose in the shoulders and bust.
This is seriously gorgeous in person. It has a suede effect. I wore it to a rehearsal dinner in Marfa and it fit in perfectly. It is a little large in the chest and shoulders so maybe size down?!

This bag is it!
I got non-stop compliments on it and it has so many nifty pockets. Very easy to organize and the cross body strap makes it easy to convert from a handbag to a cross body for events where you'll be on the move.

Comfortable, but runs large!
This was perfect for a house party dress. It was long enough that I could sit properly at church but loose enough that I could move around at the reception. The structure is really good and its a comfortable piece to have on all night. I paired it with turquoise and got a ton of compliments.

Liked, but not my usual style.
I love the way this piece looks but its a lot more casual in person than I thought. The material isn't as structured as I though. HOWEVER I loved wearing it with a graphic t and straight leg denim and stepped out of my box a little. I ended up liking it, but just not for the reasons I thought I might.

Beautiful and so easy to move in.
I rented this for easter Sunday and loved it. It doesn't photograph as well as on the model, bc the material is much stretchier and casual than I anticipated. But it was super comfortable and I got tons of compliments!

Size down!
I loved the length on this, but it ran really large. I'm usually a solid size 4 and needed a 2 so I wasn't able to wear it for the event I had it planned for. Really cute in person though and great quality material and seaming!

Loved this!
This sweater is such a fun addition to a work outfit or a spunky night out. It does have a different cut bc the shoulders are boxy and the bottom is peplum, but I wore it with high-waisted jeans and got so many compliments!

The colors look a little more muted in person but the jacket picks up a great amount of shine! I got tons of compliments and people asked me to try it on. Wore it over a Graphic T with some jeans and boots and it was the right blend of casual and cool...

This dress is amazing! Its comfortable and wearable. It is quite short, but the dress itself isn't too clingy so I feel like it still remains classy. I wore it out my birthday night in Vegas and it was perfect for the occasion!

Loved!
This was a great classic piece with an updated twist in the disconnected chocker. I got tons of compliments on it. The sleeves were pretty tight at the beginning, but seemed to losen up a bit after being in it for an hour or so. I would definitely rent again!

This looks gorgeous in person and is such an elegant and timeless piece. I got swarms of compliments on it from guys and gals alike so I think it was sexy without being too sultry. My only complaint is the pencil skirt does not allow a ton of movement so dancing was somewhat restricted. But I made it work!

Liked it. Casual, and fun piece.
I liked this for a super casual hang out. The front actually silver and grey and the back is grey sweatshirt material. I wore it with ripped white jeans and it looked cute.

Love, but weird length.
I did love the way this looked, BUT it was a weird length that didn't make sense with a lot of necklines or to layer with other pieces. It seemed to long for a short necklace to pair with and too short to pair with a long necklace. Would be best worn solo and with a high neckline or maybe even completely bare-chested tuxedo jacket.

Wore these for my birthday and they were great for moving around and dancing. They stayed secured in my ears without having to worry about the hook. I would rent them again to wear with something simple and elegant.

Really Pretty and lightweight!
These were a great addition to the green sequin gown I had. I didn't need to pair much else, just a gold wire ring. They are light and catch just the right amount of light. They are probably about 2" in length. Since they are on a post, they would be pretty with an undo as well.

Wore to a gala and felt like a Green goddess!
Sorry for the green photo! This dress was gorgeous in person. I read a lot of reviews about the sequins being very rough and cutting skin, but I found it to be minimal. (I will say as a caveat that Im pretty broad shouldered so my arms might not rub again a dress the same amount). This was comfortable and i had TONS of compliments from both men and women. It was easy to move in, dance, sit, eat. I would wear it again in a second!

Hem Problems
I actually did not order this dress. It was shipped to me instead of another one. It is okay, but not too many points of interest. The hem gives you walking problems, so if you are needing to move on foot, I would forego!

Great versatile piece!
Loved this! The slit up the side is relatively high though! But it is a really classy dress that you can wear to a cocktail event or a daytime event like a shower or work function. I wore it with gold sandals and a gold Kenneth Lane necklace, but I think it would look great in winter with tights and pumps. The color is really pretty and you don't have to add a whole lot in terms of accessories. LOVED the sleeves, and would rent again.

I rented the matching earrings first and fell in love with them. Its really an amber color in person, but the color blends beautiful with pretty much anything. Gorgeous statement piece that will look amazing as an addition to your outfit.

Yikes! Not flattering. At ALL!
The dress is actually tiered all the way through. Which you can't tell from the pictures. I think it would be okay if you are straight up and down, but if you have hips go another route! I almost cried when I tried it on it was so unflattering. My friend had to talk me down and tell me that I did not in fact just gain 30 pounds, but that it was the dress.

I wanted to like this, but it was just really oddly shaped and not very flattering.
The color is pretty,but the dress had less structure than I thought it was going to. I have a long torso, so the waist ended up cutting a little too high on me. Overall, it was cute, but it didn't look as high end as I would have hoped. I ended up going out and buying something else to wear for my event...

It was cute, a more conservative fit. Would be a great choice for a work dinner or after hours event
The torso of the bodice is REALLY long. It worked for me because I have a really long torso, but if you are short wasted, it might be a challenge. It runs a bit large. I went for a 6, but a 4 would have been a better fit.

This was pretty, just way too short for a wedding. It would be fun for a different event, but not when you're around a conservative event...

These are gorgeous, especially if you want to keep accesories simple and forego a necklace!
I paired this with a Coral dress and got raves about them. Funny enough, alot of girls at the wedding had bought the same pair. But I got them for alot cheaper and didn't feel guilty about the pricetag! Well worth it!

The process that Rent the Runway has is fool proof! You get to spend a minimal ammount on a designer outfit and you don't have the guilt of an over-priced outfit hanging in your closet that you probably won't wear again. I have definitely told all my friends about it and they love it too!
This dress was the perfect choice for a February wedding! I was the only girl that went for color and i stood out (in a good way)! I rented the earrings pictured with the model as well. This is a looser fitting dress so it is great if you are wanting to cover up a little more and also great if you want to be able to have a good meal without busting a button!!! I would rent it again!
