Sexy yet classy

I loved this dress; it was perfect for the fall wedding I attended! It's extremely comfortable with stretchy and breathable fabric. The material is very lightweight, yet it hugs you like a second skin. The dress is sexy and fun with its snug, curve-hugging look, but because it's on the longer side and lacks a revealing neckline, it's a great choice for a family wedding or work party where you don't want to show a lot of skin. The shoulder cut-outs also add a touch of individuality and keep this from being just a typical little blue dress. And I loved the length; I'm 5'10" and it fell just above the knee--definitely a friendly choice for taller ladies!

Classy look for a winter event

This dress was gorgeous--the lace sleeve is a sexy touch and sets it apart from a standard little black dress! The material was stretchy and forgiving. I would say it definitely runs a little on the larger side. My one complaint is that the sides of the zipper (the "chains" on either side) stick out quite a bit in the back (the size 4 I received as a back-up had the same problem.) It wasn't all that noticeable since the dress is black, but I didn't like the idea of having a weird lump on my backside the whole night!

Tall girl friendly :)

I highly recommend this romper for a date or night out. I wore it to a bachelorette party and got compliments all night. The fit was very comfortable (I seriously felt like I was wearing a regular pair of shorts and a t-shirt!) yet the sheer sleeves, sides and back added the perfect amount of sex appeal. I'm 5'10" and have had trouble in the past with rompers being too short (both in the shorts and in the overall fit), but not so with this one! The shorts were the perfect length and I could sit and dance comfortably all night without worrying about my booty hanging out or feeling constricted. Definitely a tall girl friendly outfit!

I rented this dress for a spring wedding. It was perfect! The lace detail is even more beautiful/intricate in person than in the photos. The dress hugs your curves in all the right places without feeling tight, and the material is very lightweight--excellent for a spring or summer event!

Desperately wanted to wear but it was too short :(

I'm 5'10" and this one was just too short to comfortably wear to my husband's work party with a mainly older, more conservative crowd. Would be perfect for a more petite girl, or would work for a date night, bachelorette party, etc.

Arms are super snug

This was my back-up dress for a work cocktail party (original dress was too short on me for the conservative crowd.) I loved the print and thick material (perfect for a winter event!) but the fit was strange. The size small actually fit better, but I ended up wearing the medium because the arms in the small were so tight I felt like I was going to need them amputated by the end of the night. I don't mean, "oh, this is uncomfortable but I'll suck it up in the name of fashion" tight. I'm talking painful, circulation-stopping tight. The medium was a little loose on me in the body yet the arms were still tight, just slightly more bearable. So don't rent this one unless you have twig arms!

Gorgeous fabric/print, but material too heavy for outdoor event on hot day

This dress is stunning! The photos don't really capture how bright the colors are or the metallic sheen the dress has. I hoped to wear this to a friend's July outdoor wedding, but it just felt a little too heavy (there's an additional layer of material underneath that helps give the dress its shape, but made it a bit warm for my liking.) I wore a back-up dress instead.

Rented this beautiful dress for my husband's formal holiday work party. The intricate lace patterns are gorgeous! The fit was perfect; the dress hugs you in all the right places without being tight or uncomfortable. A friend told me it looked like a dress Kate Middleton would wear. I agree! Classy and subtly sexy.

Va va voom!

This was one of my favorite RTR rentals of all time! I wore this dress to a friend's fancy rehearsal dinner. It fit like a glove and had a nice touch of sex appeal (there's a long zipper in the back), while still being classy and elegant. The stretchy fabric was comfortable and allowed for freedom of movement, and the print helped highlight all the right body parts. I've worn sheath dresses before where I had to hobble around a la Beyonce in the famous Met gala dress, but not so in this one! A couple of guests even came up to me to ask what my workout routine was or if I was a personal trainer. Thanks, Lucy Dress, for making me feel like a hottie!

Simply lovely!

I rented this gorgeous dress for a friend's winter wedding and received many compliments! The dress is comfy to wear and flattering with its narrow waist and full skirt. And the color is an even more brilliant shade of blue than in the pictures--I gasped when I first took it out of the box! The dress was pretty short on me (well above the knee--had to be careful on the dance floor!)--just shy of too-short territory where I would have returned it and worn something else. So if you're over 5'10", you may want to avoid this one.

Adorably retro!

Rented this dress for my friend's dressy cocktail party. The cut is so fifties--classic and beautiful with a full swingy skirt. I felt like an extra on Mad Men! My one complaint--I spilled a glass of water on the bodice just before my event, and it left a very noticeable mark for the rest of the evening, even after it dried. So beware, ladies--don't let even a drop of liquid touch this dress!

Rented for a work cocktail party and loved it--sexy yet elegant! The dress hugs your body in all the right places and the slip underneath helps smooth over any tummy bulge or lumps you don't want showing. My husband told me I looked like a Bond girl and begged me not to return it! Highly recommend this dress for any formal affair--the look is great for all events from work parties to weddings.

Never been sadder to mail back a dress!

This might be my favorite RTR rental of all time! I wore this dress to my husband's work cocktail party and got loads of compliments. The print is bright and unique and the fabric is so luxurious--it just looks and feels like a high quality dress. I felt like I really stood out in a sea of little black dresses! It does run small (the dress was a little snug across my shoulders and around my hips), but all in all it fit like a glove and flattered my figure. I was bummed to mail this one back!

Good for a work event

I rented this dress for a daytime work party and wore it with black tights and boots--fashion-forward but still conservative enough for the office. The fabric feels soft and has a good amount of stretch, but like another reviewer commented, there were a lot of threads coming off the dress. I thought it cheapened the look a little bit. The dress also didn't come with a belt (somewhat deceptive since there is one in the photos--you should make that clear in the description RTR), but I added my own so it worked out fine.

Perfect for my bridal shower!

Rented this dress for my bridal shower and loved it--so cute and feminine! It's definitely a true sheath dress that really hugs your curves, so it was slightly difficult to sit/walk in because of that and the fabric having no stretch. I still really liked it though. You can wear it with a regular bra, too.

This dress is simply stunning in person! The material has a very slight shimmer, and the color of the top is more pink than it appears in the photos. I wore it to a wedding rehearsal dinner, and I got compliments all night! The fit is very flattering (somewhat loose, but still tailored enough to accentuate your figure), and the sequined sleeves add that extra touch! Absolutely LOVE this dress!!

Such a cute and classy dress!

I wore this dress to a daytime spring wedding and got loads of compliments! The colors are so bright and fun--perfect for a formal spring or summertime event. The bow detail in front defines your waist without squishing your stomach in, and the overall fit is very comfortable. My only issue with the dress was the top; I have a very small bust and the top was a little boxy on me, even with a padded bra (but nothing a couple of safety pins couldn't fix!) Ladies with larger busts likely won't have that problem. In hindsight, I probably should have rented the size 0 for a bit of a better fit. Still loved wearing this dress!

Great color and fit!

I rented this dress for a cocktail party and loved it! The color is a very pretty shade of sapphire/royal blue. The dress cinches in at the waist then flows out from there; very flattering! I also liked that I could wear it with a regular bra. It does run slightly small--I generally wear a size 2, but I rented a 40 (equivalent to a size 4) and it fit perfectly. The size 38 that I got as a back-up was too small--wouldn't even zip! So I'd recommend going up a size.

Perfect for a formal event!

I rented this dress for a wedding; when it arrived I gasped when I saw the color and lace in person! It is a beautiful, eye-catching dress. It was just slightly too big for me in the waist area; if it came in a size 0, that probably would have fit me better. However, I wore it anyway because I loved the teal color and lace details! Guests were coming up to me all night to ask where I got it. I was really sad to mail it back!

I wore this to a party and loved it! It's a bold statement piece that definitely adds a touch of glamour to your look. I wore it with a wrap dress that had a low-cut neckline, and I skipped other accessories--this makes enough of a statement that I'd recommend keeping the rest of your jewelry simple.

Great for evening wedding

I liked this dress even more once I saw it in person! The ruffled top is really cute. It's a sexy dress that shows a little skin while remaining classy and elegant. The bottom was a little snug, so ladies with fuller hips may want to consider sizing up. I was worried I was going to be pulling up the one shoulder top all night, but it actually stayed in place perfectly for hours. I never pulled it up once!

Pretty but a little too big

I wore these earrings to my wedding rehearsal dinner and overall was happy enough with them. I thought they were too large though--it made them look too much like costume jewelry. Also, they didn't stay in very well; the backs didn't seem strong enough to hold them in place. I wouldn't rent these again.
