Great dress for pregnant mommas!
I loved this dress and got so many compliments. I wore this at 32 weeks pregnant and had no issues accommodating my large bump! I was worried that based off the pictures, it'd be super long, but the length was perfect for me, and I wore flats with it. I deducted a star because I felt like the top could have been bigger. If you have smaller boobs or could pull it higher this might not be an issue, but I felt like I JUUUUUSSST fit me! The dress did fit well, so while I was uncomfortable with the top and kind of tugging on it all night, I never actually needed to adjust it - it was just a mental hurdle. Additionally since the top was lower cut I didn't also need the leg slit. Like one or the other would have been ideal and made this a 5/5. But a great dress, and I was glad to find something that made me feel so pretty in my 3rd trimester!

Showered in complements all night
This dress is absolutely incredible. I felt so good in it, and got complements all night long. The structure of the bodice stayed up so I didn't have to do that dreaded constant tug on the front of the dress to keep it in the right position. The cut was so flattering, and I didn't need to wear shapewear with the dress. Absolutely loved it!

Bachelorette Perfection
I've long admired this dress so when it came time to pick something to wear for my Bachelorette in Vegas I knew just what I wanted. I absolutely loved this dress! The back was sexy and the design in the sequins was so unique and fun. I often don't like sequin dresses since they tend to be scratchy but since this was long sleeves I didn't have any issues at all. It was an amazing dress and I felt so good in it! I also got the mystery bling which was the add on of the earrings and they were.. okay! Not my normal style but worked for the outfit.

When can I buy this dress?!
This was a back up dress sent to me for my wedding weekend. I wore it the night before our rehearsal during "welcome to town" cocktail hour. It was amazing!! I want to buy this dress so bad! It was so so cute and super comfy! Loved how it looked and how I felt in it! Great for a causal event that you still want to "Dress up" for.

Rehearsal Dinner Dress
Got this dress for my rehearsal dinner as a last minute backup. The dress I intended to wear didn't fit right. I wore this dress backwards because I felt the lower neckline was more flattering on me. This dress was okay. There was nothing really special about it, and had I had more time I would have liked to try something else. That being said it was comfy and fulfilled my need! Material is thick and stretchy. Lowish rating because I didn't love it and only felt so so in the dress, where I normally feel amazing in RTR dresses.

Cute, simple, and perfect with almost anything.
I bought this from RTR and I'm glad I did. I wish it was just a little bit longer since it does get slipped inside the neckline pretty easily. But other then that is perfect. It's a great accent when you just need a little something to finish your look. Glad I bought this and can enjoy it any time.

Unique look to really stand out!
LOVE this dress. I bought it from Rent the Runway. I was debating between the 6 and 8 since I was between sizes. I bought the 8 and had this been something I could have returned I would have returned it for the 10. Its not that the 8 doesn't fit but there is no give in the waist so my thick highs/ hips JUST fit into the 8! It looks amazing on my roommate who normally wears a 4 or 6. The dress is much more orange the coral. Sequins are more copper then gold too. All in all, not a bad dress - I wouldn't buy it for $400 but for an almost 80% discount I definitely would!

Got so many complements in this dress!
This dress was perfect for a "Roaring out of Your 20's" 30th Birthday party! I'm usually between a 6 and an 8 and since the 8 wasn't available the weekend I needed it I was worried that the 6 would be too snug. I lucked out and it was the perfect fit! The dress looked amazing and I got so many complements all night long. It's not the typical 20's dress that people go for but it definitely fit the look. The cons were that this dress kinda smelled! I think it was due for a cleaning but I was assured that other people couldn't smell it but it seemed very apparent to me! Also Rent the Runway's customer service was able to assist with this to ensure that it would be cleaned nor is this the normal case! The sequins were scratchy which is to be expected but not unbearable. The back is closed with a zipper on the bottom and three brass buttons on the top. It gave the dress a unique and vintage look but were difficult to remove so it made putting the dress on and taking it off a project. I would however rent this again for another 20's party!
