Cute and easy to wear!
I rented this for a backyard baptism. It was a hot day but the material is a nice weight and the zipper is easy to get up and down by yourself for bathroom trips. I couldn't see or feel much of a difference between the size XS and the S so I wonder if they were labeled incorrectly. I would say it runs true to size but if you are between sizes definitely size up for your backup.

Great dress!
The style of this dress is amazing and the fit on this dress was so flattering with the fitted top and flowy skirt. I wore it for a dressier communion on a Sat night with platform sandals and a more casual one the next day with flat sandals and a denim jacket. The straps are looking a little worn but probably not noticeable to anyone not wearing the dress. I didn't see a problem with the nips the way other women did but I did have to wear a strapless bra, my girls just sagged without one. Great rental, wish I could buy this one but glad I got to wear it twice!

Nice dress but not for me
This was a little overwhelming on my short frame. I am usually between a 0 and a 2 and I rented the 2 in this dress based on the reviews that it ran a little small. I think a 0 would have fit better overall but might have been a little tight in the waist area. There is no give in this dress so if that is something that would concern you size up. However, the dress was very pretty and pockets are definitely a plus!

Great dress!
This dress is amazing. It's fun and makes a statement. I wore a backless strapless because I felt I needed a little lift, but if you are larger chested you probably can go braless. The bottom is a little snug, but the dress fit perfect overall. I didn't need to adjust anything all night. It's definitely heavy and will keep you warm, but if you are dancing a lot it can get hot.

Nice option
Never wore this dress, as RTR sent me two the day of my event to make up for their mistake on my original rental. It's form fitting, but true to size, and very flattering. I thought it would be too long on me as I am 5'1" but the length was perfect. The neck is a bit tight and I could see that getting annoying over time if I did choose to wear it.

Great back up option!
RTR overnighted me this dress after my original selection was too big. I didn't have many options left in my size, and I wanted something a little bit brighter and more colorful being that I was attending a Sweet 16 in the end of June, but I needed something that I knew would fit. This dress looks great on and it definitely has wiggle room due to the elastic waist. Although this was not my first choice, my friend said she liked it even better than my original selection.

Wish it worked!
After reading all the reviews I ordered a 0 and a 2. I had an attack of body dysmorphia after receiving a 2 in another RTR dress and it was a little snug, so I changed my order to a 4 and a 2. Big mistake. The 2 was huge on me. This romper was adorable and the perfect color and I wanted to wear it so badly but I just looked terrible in the 2 because it was swimming on me. Definitely get your normal size and the size smaller. Hopefully I can rent it again for something and I'll get a 0.

Cute and fun
This is not my usual style, but when my original choice back up size became unavailable, I chose to rent something I ordinarily would not. The dress was very flattering on which surprised me, and fit nicely, however the lining was really tight and didn't have a lot of give to it. Overall it was a pretty dress and fun to wear.

Very pretty statement necklace.
I rented this to wear with a plain pink dress to pop and I didn't end up wearing the dress. This still worked with a back up dress that was black and gold. The only thing I didn't love was that it was hard to get it to lay flat all the time because it's so bulky.

Meh
I ordered two sizes in this dress, and the larger size became unavailable. It probably would have been too large anyway. The 2 fit, but the dress style was just not flattering on me. I'm short and athletic, and it was just too much fabric on my frame. Even 4" heels did not help. I'm almost glad the larger size was not available and they sent me a different dress entirely because I would have not been happy wearing this dress.

Perfect dress
I wore this for my daughter's baptism. The color, the cap sleeves, and the length of the dress made it so appropriate for the occasion. The material was light and comfortable and the fit was spot on. I'm short so the xs worked better overall, even though it was a little snug up top. The length was better and the fact that the fabric hugged me up top looked nicer than the bagginess of the size small.

Great dress!
I rented this for a wedding specifically because of all the pregnant reviews (thanks ladies!) and couldn't be happier. I was 31 weeks when I wore it and from the front you couldn't even tell I was pregnant and fit in the 0 so well that I didn't even try the 2. The interior lining rode up a little bit on my (ever expanding) butt but still covered everything and my 2 cup sizes larger than normal girls were held in nicely at the top because of the snug lining. I got a lot of compliments on the dress and it made me feel better than anything I tried at the maternity stores!

Loooove
I love a cuff bracelet. I have very small wrists and found this a little hard to get on, but once I did it was fine and looked amazing. However I wasn't able to wear it because I already had a big necklace on and it was a little too much with both pieces. It was sent as a backup since my original selection wasn't available. That being said, I would definitely rent this again when I can use it.

Gorgeous piece! Wish I was able to keep it! It really popped on my light orange dress and wasn't as heavy as it looked.

Nice option
This runs a little large, even though it's so short. After reading the reviews I thought I ordered an xs but it turns out I ordered a small. The top was pretty big and the whole romper felt baggy. It also was missing the little clasp to cinch the top together so I had to use a safety pin which did not make for easy bathroom trips! Overall the fabric was nice and summery and I am glad I got a chance to wear this romper.

Great dress
This dress fit snug but looked great. I did size up because the 6 was a little more comfortable overall. The color is amazing for a summer party. This was my first E&J rental and I would definitely rent their dresses again.

So many compliments!
The dress fit perfect and was just right for a vineyard wedding. The 2 and the 0 both fit but the 0 was just a bit more form fitting without being tight so I chose to wear that one. The material was soft and comfortable. There was a tiny hole in the netting by the zipper but I don't think it was that noticeable. I got compliments all night on this dress and was definitely sad to send it back.

Nice dress
Definitely listen to the reviews and size up!! I am usually a 2 in dresses and could have fit in the 4 but it was super tight around the legs. The fabric doesn't give much either. The 6 was easier to walk in and fit pretty much the same as the 4 everywhere else. Got many compliments on the dress and this was my first rent the runway experience and overall a very good one!

Great piece!
I don't usually wear chunky jewelry but this necklace completed my dress and looked great! Very lightweight despite the size. One corner wouldn't lay totally flat but was probably only noticeable to me. Wish I could keep it :)
