Showstopper!
If you're looking for a showstopper, this is it. This is a stunning dress. I wore it to a fall wedding (November, in a warm climate). The material is silky but can be prone to snagging so be careful with jewelry and such. The slit is high so if you're nervous about that (sitting correctly was a challenge), I wouldn't suggest this. The fit of the dress is rather loose, not too fitted.

Such a easy wear - gorgeous and comfortable!
First off, this dress is stunning. I wore it to a wedding - but the theme was garden/floral inspired. I was a little concerned about the dress being too white, but others (including the bride) gave the absolute ok! Plus the print of the dress features more blue than anything. It was an easy wear, I was comfortable dancing, eating, sitting, standing, you name it. The material is sturdy and not see through, even with sweating on the dance floor. Loved wearing this one.

Runs large, looks more on the party side.
I'm giving it four stars because it felt great and looked great. If you love lace, you'll love this. The neckline isn't too deep, so my smaller chest didn't compliment it too well. It borders on the bigger side, meaning if you're on the smaller side with your waist or bust, you may need to size down. This was sent as a replacement to me after some fallout with my order, but it just didn't do it for me. Definitely a party jumpsuit. I wouldn't rent for a formal event, but for a night out for sure.

Not worn, but still loved!
This was sent to me when another jumpsuit I rented ended up no being able to be sent to me. I have to give props to RtR's costumer service, because as stressed as I was (Senior Prom is no joke lol), they managed to give me many options and worked relentlessly to get me anything I needed. This jumpsuit wasn't worn due to the fact that I had no tape to help out the deep V. The rest of the jumpsuit was perfect, great fit around my waist which it what you want as the rest is loose. I would suggest this to bigger bust ladies, unless you can tape the fabric down on your chest. It may not seem needed, but once you bend down, you'll need it! The color is great, the fabric is gorgeous. Loved this, and probably will rent in the future.

Unexpected Favorite!
This is a beautiful dress with an awesome fit. Don't let the slit scare you too, the dress has a bit of stretch to it which works great for ladies with curves. It was so comfortable. You can get away with wearing a bra if you would like, but I went without since it fit so close. The lace in the middle and bottom of the chest is not see through either. The dress is also pretty long, even with my 5 inch heels on (no platforms). The color is a purple-ish red, just gorgeous. After my pre-selected jumpsuit fell through last minute (kudos to Rent the Runway's costumer service!) , this saved the day and made my night. Thanks RtR!

Simple but got nothing but compliments.
This dress is gorgeous. Especially for women with curves, this will complement them beautifully. I wore it to a black-tie wedding, and it was a perfect fit for the occasion. When checking out this dress, I saw that a lot of women got it 1 - 2 dress sizes up, so I did the same. I'm usually a solid 6, so I got a 8 with a back-up 10. It will be a tight fit regardless, that's just how the dress is. I went with the 8 because the 10 gave me too much room for bunching up. I wore a strapless bra because of the cutouts, but you could go without one also. In the end, it was a simple but stunning dress. and looks like you didn't even try. Loved it.

Squeezes in strange places.
It's a awesome dress, the material is a bit heavier than I had expected. But why I didn't wear it came down to the way it fitted and rested on my body, It was tight along the thighs and the upper body, but it left a little pocket along my midsection. Not really flattering. So I passed on this one. I think it would look better on more straight body types for sure.

Not what I expected.
I got this dress for a graduation but I didn't wear it. It came down to the fact that the picture was a little misleading regarding the colour and pleats. The pleats are very prominent, to the point of the dress looking worn in or like they aren't supposed to be there. The colour was a lot brighter than I would have liked. All of this resulted in me not wearing it. The fit was great, true to size. No problems with the sleeves or length (especially since I'm a tall girl).

Not for Dresses that show your side.
I got this because I thought it would be great for a backless dress that showed off my sides as well. The problem are the adhesives on the side. They are completely visible from the side. So if your dress reveals your back and some of your sides, this isn't for you. The fit was pretty accurate, so that's a plus. Just make sure the adhesives are nice and close to your sides to get a great fit.
Gorgeous Dress and Endless Compliments.
I wore this dress for prom, and I loved it. I wore a 2L ( which I wouldn't have chosen for my self, thank God for my mother), and the fit was great. The dress is fitted in the middle, then it drapes down. I'm around 5'9/5'10 and I wore 4-5 inch heels and it still was dragging on the floor. I would say to get a regular fit if you don't feel like picking up your dress the whole night while dancing and such. The only reason I didn't wear my other size (4R) was due to the middle not hugging right. All in all, I loved this dress. The colours are great, and it was a show stopper.

The only accessory needed!
This was an unexpected surprise for me considering that I was on the fence about wearing it. But I was so wrong! It adds a little bling, but not too much that it's overload. It does fit a little tightly, but I found that you could adjust it but widening it a little or moving higher on my arm. Love love love.
