Great dress!!
I loved this dress! I rented it for a semi formal gala and was 18 weeks pregnant at the time. I ended up wearing the larger size (14) because I was on my feet and moving around the entire evening (plus it helped accommodate the baby bump). Had I not been pregnant the dress would have for true to size. The dress is super comfy and definitely recommend! The lining is stretchy which adds to the comfort. I was afraid the sequence would be itchy under the arm but it was not.

A bit big on top but otherwise nice dress
I rented this for a friend for a formal affair. The straps were too long and made the front drape too much so she went with the back up dress. If you have a larger bust this might not be the case but is a bit big on top for those who are small chested.

Great dress
Rented this for a friend for a gala we attended and this was an awesome fit. She's 5'2 and the petite worked for her (although the event was a "black ties and Tennies" event so she was in flats).

very comfortable and great color!
I wore this to a Kentucky derby birthday party. It was super comfy and cute. I ended up wearing a 10 (normally a 12) because it had a better fit. The belt actually had beading on it which makes it pop a little more. Would recommend this for a party or bridal shower.

Awesome necklace - really makes a plain dress pop!
This necklace was awesome. I rented 2 dresses for the weekend and ended up wearing this necklace with both of them! It's versatile and goes great with almost anything. Wish I could buy it!
Canary Treasure Chest Necklace

Fun and flirty!
I wore this dress for my birthday dinner. I agree with the other reviews that it was tight in the rib cage area due to boning, but overall not too bad and I was able to enjoy birthday dinner and dessert. The gold underlay was a nice touch, but the dress definitely needs a statement necklace. I rented the Kate Spade Canary Treasure Chest necklace and it was awesome. Would recommend for a date night or night out!

Classic dress!
The dress was a nice fit. I'm 5'10 and rented the Long length, it was plenty long enough. Fabric was a little on the heavy side. The layering on the neckline added that something extra the dress needed.

Comfy dress, but nothing special
This dress was comfortable, I was between sizes here and went with the larger size I ordered (12). It was big up top (but I have a small chest) and the fabric wasn't super flattering. The neckline cut really high. All in all, nothing great, but not horrible either.

Fun dress!
I rented this as a back up for my work holiday party and went with the 1st choice. The dress fit nicely (runs large, so size down) and the length was fine (i'm 5'10 - may be long on anyone short). The detail on the shoulder was nice but overall thought it wasn't dressy enough for the party. Would be a great dress for a bridal shower or lunch though.

Awesome dress - super cute and comfy!
I rented this for my work Holiday Party and it was a huge hit! The detail on the shoulder was awesome and super plus -- it has pockets! The dress had loops for a belt but it didn't come with one - I paired it with a black patent belt and it worked great. It was a little shorter than I anticipate but it was fine as long as I was standing up (i'm 5'10). The material was thin, but in dark lighting you couldn't tell. I definitely recommend this dress!

Not a huge fan...
This came as part of my Rent the Runway At Home Trial. I wasn't a huge fan of the dress. It fit fine, but didn't really do anything for me. The cut on the skirt made it almost frumpy. The fabric was pretty stiff too - not what I would have expected from the picture.

Great dress!
This came as part of my Rent the Runway At Home Trial. This dress was great - super cute, good fit, and comfortable! You could pair a belt with it, but I think I actually preferred it without a belt. It was a on the shorter side, but not too short.

Loved the dress - but it's a bit short!
This came as part of my Rent the Runway At Home Trial. I loved the dress - the fit, fabric everything, unfortunately, it was a bit too short for me to get away with. As others have said, its a bit tight in the bust, but fit me just fine. If only I were a few inches shorter... I recommend for anyone under 5'8 or can pull off short dresses!

Loved this dress!
This came as part of my Rent the Runway At Home Trial. I loved it. The fit was great - a little tight in the arms, but overall a great fit. I would pair it with a belt and wedges for a daytime brunch or event. Would also work if you dressed it up with accessories for an evening event. Was shorter than I thought, but overall not too short.

My husband loved this dress!
This came as part of my Rent the Runway At Home Trial. Like most men, my husband loved this dress (go figure, a red dress). The fit was nice and pretty flattering. The length was good for me (being 5'10). This would be nice for a wedding or date.

Great Dress!
This came as part of my Rent the Runway At Home Trial. It fit great and was super cute. The lace gives it a flirty, sophisticated look. I plan to rent this for an upcoming baptism. You could change the look with accessories - dainty jewelry and shoes for a more upscale look or chunky jewelry and wedges for a more casual look.

Just a black dress
This came as part of my Rent the Runway At Home Trial. I wasn't a huge fan of the dress. It seemed to run pretty big for me and wasn't anything special for me. Maybe it would have been better in a smaller size. I also thought it needed a belt or something to break up all the black.

Super comfy & cute!
This came as part of my Rent the Runway At Home Trial. The fit was nice - the fabric is stretchy and super comfortable. It's not something I would have normally picked out, but the style is fun and flirty. Would be good for a dinner date or afternoon shower.

I loved this dress!
The dress was a great fit - true to size and super comfortable. I rented it for a date night with my husband. I got lots of compliments on the dress. The necklace was from RTR too and it matched perfectly! This was my first time using RT and I will be using much more frequently -- it's so easy!
