Extremely comfortable and elegant

I think this is my favorite rental thus far. I can't believe how comfortable it was and how great it looked!!! I am generally between a size 4 and 6 in dresses and I ended up wearing the 6 because the 4 was just a liiiiittle too tight in the bust and hips, however, I didn't notice much difference in the waist or length for either size. Speaking of length, it is a rare occasion that I don't have to wear "stripper heels" with regular length dresses... I was able to wear 4.5 inch heels (with half inch platform in the front) and the dress pooled a little, but I didn't have an issue walking at all. The only issue I had with the dress was that the armholes seemed a little big and my bra showed a little, which you can barely see in the picture. But the good thing is that you can wear a normal bra and that's a big deal when you have 34DD's! The dress is a heavier material so it is best suited for fall and winter events. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely be renting this in red!

Such a fun color for an engagement session

The color of the dress photographed soooooooo amazingly. I only ordered a size 4 and wish I could have tried on the 2. I am short (usually wear petites because the proportions are better) so the straps on the 4 were a little long, the dress bunched a little in the back and waist, and flared out at a weird spot which made me look a little heavier... but I still really loved it. The length was perfect though! Also the dress was pretty stretchy and had plenty of room in the bust (I'm a 34DD).

Great dress for an engagement session (even though is it stereotypical white)

I was against wearing a white dress for my engagement photo session, but when I saw this dress I could not resist. I ordered both the 4 and 6 and I was right between the sizes. I ended up wearing the 4 which was a little tight around the bust (I am 34DD), and the tulle underlay was a bit tight and itchy. After and hour of wearing it, I was definitely ready to take the dress off. I don't think the 6 would have photographed well because of all the extra material and it was not tight enough around the waist, but it probably would be been more comfortable. I am always nervous above lace and/or long sleeve dresses because I am very muscular in my arms, but I didn't have a problem in this dress. Also, I paired this with the Camellia Necklace by Slate & Willow (https://www.renttherunway.com/shop/designers/short_jewelry/camellianecklace).

Cute and delicate with a bit of edge

I really liked these. Probably would buy these if/when available. As others have indicated, these don't stay on and you have to use a plastic backing behind the backing on these earnings. They are not very formal, but not super casual... I tried to wear them again for work, but they seemed a little too much for my outfit.

Not my favorite rental

I rented this for my Pro birthday address. I had waited until the last minute to rent the dress so I didn't have many options (my bad). The dress is more of a holiday dress as the material is thick and has sparkly thread... I should have read the details and reviews before renting. I rented both the S and M and when I pulled the S out of the bag, it scared me how small it was so I went for the M and it fit so I went with it. I wore the dress backwards like some of the others had and it definitely showed off the girls and was pretty tight in the chest (I am 34DD). The small definitely wouldn't have worked. I got a lot of compliments, however, I wasn't super thrilled with the dress. Probably would be super cute for a holiday party paired with black tights and black booties.

Beautiful emerald earrings

I was really hesitant to rent these because the are clip-on's, but I am glad I did. I had never worn clip-on's before and was afraid they were going to hurt my small ears or fall off. They didn't fall off and they didn't start hurting my ears until 4 hours after I put them on. However, all I had to do was move the earrings slightly on my ear and that solved the issue with the pain. I wore these earrings with the Diving In Deep dress by Badgley Mischka.

Super comfy and flattering

I loved this dress because it wasn't fussy; the material is super comfy and didn't show any imperfections. I think the XS fit better, however the length on the S was much more appropriate (2 inches above the knee) for the occasion so I went with the S. If I was to wear this to a place like Vegas, I would have definitely gone with the XS since it hit closer to mid-thigh. I am not a huge fan of sequins because they tend to look cheap, but they were the perfect touch to add spice to a LBD. I paired this dress with the Kenneth Jay Lane Jade Drop Earrings.

RENT THIS DRESS! Absolutely fabulous!

Words cannot describe how beautiful and amazing this dress is and I wish I had a reason to buy it and have it in my closet! I hadn't even left the hotel to go to the wedding and some stranger stopped to tell me how amazing the dress and I looked. The lace back is SOOOOOO stunning. UNDERGARMENTS: The lace does have a tan mesh lining and I was able to wear a slip with a built in strapless bra. The slip was lighter than my skin tone so if you were up close, you could kinda see the slip, but it was fine. SIZING: The size 4 was a little tight around the hips and fit without a bra (I'm a 34DD and the dress felt supportive enough), but I felt more comfortable wearing the size 6 with a bra. I was planning (and did) dance a lot and wanted the extra room. LENGTH: I am short so I knew the dress was going to be long, but I was prepared with my 6in heels with a 2in platform in the front. I ended up using hem tape to shorten just the front part of the dress so I was sure not to step on it.

Fun dress for a summer cocktail hour

I wore this to a cocktail hour the night before my friend's wedding. This dress was perfect for the occasion... not too dressy, but not too casual. The fabric and color is perfect for the summer. I paired the dress with the Kendra Scott Danielle Salmon Earrings... it was on the verge of being too "matchy," but they looked good together. I ordered both the 4 and 6... I ended up wearing the 6 because I was in a hurry to get ready and it was the first size I grabbed. I had to pull it up a couple of times throughout the evening. The 4 would have probably fit too. I am a 34DD and I was able to wear the dress without a bra and felt secure. Don't think there would have been any room for a bra, but I didn't try.

Matched the Shoshanna Mango Tango dress perfectly

I really liked these earrings and they looked very nice with the Shoshanna Mango Tango dress. The only negative is that they seemed worn... they weren't as gold as expected and the stone wasn't as shiny as it could have been. I also assumed they were going to be lighter weight earring, but they were a little bit heavy. Not heavy enough to bother me though. The weight may have been an issue if I had sensitive ears.

Would have been perfect with a little black dress

I rented this to go with the Badgley Mischka Flora Chiffon Gown, but I did not end up wearing the dress so I didn't wear the necklace. Even if I ended up wearing the dress I am not sure if I would have worn this necklace since it was just a little too much (shiny, big, etc) for me. Don't get me wrong, this piece is very pretty but I think it is more suited to wear with a little black dress.

Too tight in the chest, but perfect everywhere else!

Unfortunately this dress (which was my back up) did not work for me. I ended up wearing the BCBGMAXAZRIA Inevitable Beauty Gown to the wedding which is an AMAZING dress. Right now I am a size 4 on the bottom, but a 6 up top because I am a 34DD. In reading the reviews, I thought I would be perfect in the 4P because others were saying it ran large in the chest. However the dress was just too tight in the chest and there was some spillage and it was not comfortable. It also was VERY long... not sure if I actually received the petite size because I had to put on 6 inch heels when I tried on the dress. The color was amazing and I may rent this dress in the future in the size 6.

Unexpected and beautiful color!

When I first opened the box I was shocked and not too happy with the color. People have described the dress as being "mustard" but I think it also has some lime in it too. I was afraid it was going to make me look sick, but that was not even close to the truth. The color worked with my slightly olive complexion, make me look tanner, and photographed beautifully. I ended up wearing the size 6... 4 fit everywhere but the bust, and the 6 was a teeny bit too big in the bust (I'm a 34DD) and big everywhere else. Since the boning in the dress was VERY uncomfortable I wore a slip with a built in strapless bra which solved the issue with the boning and the bust being too big. The inner corset had odd cups and literally sat on top of my chest, but you couldn't even tell. The corset was nice because even though the dress was a little big, it help keep it up and I didn't have to bother with pulling up my dress at all. I wore 5 in heels and the back of the dress dragged a little in the back, but it wasn't a problem. I wore the Alexis Bittar Lucite Talon Drop earrings which really completed the look.

These earrings are AMAZING, unique, and a little edgy. Very light weight and did not bother my ears one bit. They went perfectly with the Halston Heritage Nigerian Sand dress.

Best Promotion Ever!

This promotion is PERFECT for all the summer weddings! You can save tons of $ and you get to try more expensive dresses that you normally wouldn't go for. Plus you get an accessory!!! I have rented dresses in the past, but not an accessory because I always felt that it was an unnecessary expense. Super excited for my first accessory rental and I bet I will continue renting them in the future! The promotions were SUPER easy to use and I hope more promotions like this one will be available in the future. RTR is the best!

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

I am absolutely in love with this dress! The pictures truly don't do it justice and I received countless compliments. I loved how flowy and light the dress was and it was perfect for a spring outdoor wedding (spring may not be an accurate description since it was 80-90 degrees). It is extremely hard for me to find a dress that fits without having the dress altered because I'm short and have a large bust (34DD). The dress barely brushed the ground with 5in wedges. I probably would have been more comfortable with a size 6P, but unfortunately it was not available. With the 4P there was no room for a bra, but with the boning and build in corset I felt that I had enough support even while dancing. It just took a little more effort to zip up. Renting this dress is a must! If it is ever available to purchase, I'm getting it!
