Lady in red!!
This dress was amazing!!! The colors are vibrant and the pink adds a great pop to the already popping red. The neckline was beautiful and enhanced my small 34A chest. The fabric had a way of sucking in at the right spots and it didn't budge not once the entire night. My measurements are 34-25-35 and the 2 fit perfectly. The zipper did stick a bit when putting the dress on but my husband helped me zip it all the way up. Once it was on, I didn't want to take it off.

Great dress!
Beautiful dress that fit wonderfully. There is no stretch in the fabric so keep that in mind but otherwise it's a great dress to wear for a wedding in spring/summer.

Perfect for an island wedding!!
The color is gorgeous in person and the fit hugs every curve of your body, but in a good way. I rented this dress for a wedding in Barbados and it was perfect. My dress size is typically a 2 so I'd say it runs true to size. Per the usual, RTR for the win!!

Light and airy!
Unfortunately didn't get to wear the dress as the birthday brunch I bought it for was cancelled but I wore it around the house for fun. The small fit perfectly but I've left off one star for the length as it was just a little too long for my 5'2", even with 4" wedges. Still though, the dress is very pretty, light and airy and the slit makes it easier to walk around in with the length. I would definitely rent this again!

An amazing dress and an even more amazing customer experience!
Before I get to the gorgeous dress, I want to first thank my stylist, Devin. Last week I was expecting my original rental to arrive in Houston on 8/31 for a wedding I was attending in Denver, CO on 9/2 but due to Hurricane Harvey, the package didn't get to me in time. I called RTR and connected with Devin and she went above and beyond to get me a couple of dresses to choose from to be sent overnight to San Antonio since the hurricane brought me there. We spoke at length about the style(s) I tended to gravitate towards as well as what was available in the short time frame. I went with the first dress that she suggested, this Monique Lhullier, and I couldn't be any happier with the dress and with my experience with RTR, specifically Devin. It was quite possibly the one thing that went right amongst all that went wrong in the past 2 weeks. They take the utmost care of their customers and did everything they could to alleviate any stress I had about the rental and the wedding. Thank you to Devin and to RTR for everything!! I am a loyal customer for life!!!!

POCKETS!
This rental was AMAZING!!! The colors are gorgeous in person and the weight of the dress made me feel like a million bucks. The hi-lo hem made it easy to move around in, even though it was a little long in the back. I kept my accessories to a minimum so as not to take away from the dress. The pockets were a definite plus and took the dress up a notch! The only thing I had as issue with (which is why I gave it 4 stars rather than 5) is the neckline. I am pretty flat chested so I didn't have much to start out with to fill out the top so I had to use a safety pin to close it up a little, but once I had that in place, I had no problem. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the dress and I love Badgley Mischka!! My girlfriend (in the pic and also in RTR - Nicole Miller) and I swear by RTR and is our go-to for every special occasion.

Gorgeous!
I wore this gown to a 20 year wedding anniversary celebration. The fit is true to size. I am 5'2" and I wore 4 inch heels and the 4R skimmed the floor perfectly. I received compliments on the dress all night long! Nicole Miller fits your body wonderfully and is extremely flattering. This is definitely not the last of her dresses that I'll be renting.

Flattering and fun!
I rented this gown at the last minute for a black tie event benefitting UNICEF. I am pretty short, 5'2", and the 4P was just the right size. I wore 4 inch heels and the length of the gown skimmed the floor perfectly. The peplum is what makes this dress amazing and flattering. The gown is gorgeous and I'd definitely rent again!

Nha Khanh is my FAVORITE designer on RTR and the dress definitely didn't disappoint! The dress is true to size and FABULOUS! I'd rent again in a heartbeat. I kept the accessories to a minimum, with just earrings and nude strappy heels with my hair pulled back. I wore it to an outdoor wedding in the summer in NC and it was comfortable and PERFECT!

Fun dress!
The dress was fun and colors were vibrant for a wedding rehearsal outdoors in Charlotte, NC in the summer. The only thing that I didn't like about the dress was that it was a little tight in the chest/rib cage area so it made my already small chest look pretty much non-existent. I wasn't able to wear a bra since it already flattened me. With that being said, I'd definitely wear it again but I'd size up next time.

Sexy and comfortable...
The dress is gorgeous, sexy, fun and most importantly, comfortable. I wore the size 0 and the mid-section area was loose so it was very forgiving. The color is more of a red orange but still very eye catching. There are snaps at the top of the dress to keep bra straps in place, which I absolutely loved. This dress is definitely a winner!

Fun dress!
I ordered a 0 and 2 and the 0 fit perfectly. The length was perfect for a wedding and whenever I got up from sitting down, I didn't have to tug down on the dress. I wore a simple black cardigan with the dress since it was a little chilly and a pair of strappy sandals. I kept the accessories to a minimum since there's so much detail in the dress. It's heavy and nicely made. This was my first Robert Rodriguez rental and I will definitely be renting another in the bear future. #robertrodriguez #weddingfashion #ootd

Beautiful!
I ordered the dress in sizes 0 and 2 and the 0 fit perfectly. The lace detail is amazing so I kept my accessories pretty minimal and I wore nude strappy heels. Depending on the lighting, the dress can look black in pictures but i feel like this pic captures the beautiful color of the dress. I can't stress enough how much I LOVE renttherunway.com and I will continue to rent!!!

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!
I rented this gown about 3 months in advance and I was in the process of losing weight. I ordered a 2 and a 4 with my fingers crossed that I'd be able to fit into one of them. The last dress I rented in February was a size 8 so this was a risky order for me. Fortunately enough for me, the 2 fit like a glove. The length was perfect for me, 5'2" and 120 lbs, and I received so many compliments. The dress is elegant and fun at the same time and I have not one complaint about it. This is by far my favorite rental so far!!!

What an AMAZING dress!!
I wore this beautiful gown to an intimate wedding and I received compliments on it all night long, even while I was at a convenience store between the ceremony and reception. I'm short (5''2") and the 6R fit me perfectly lengthwise with my 4" heels. It was a little roomier for my taste around the waste area but I've been losing weight so the 4R may have fit better. I LOVE Rent the Runway and I will continue to rent for every occasion I can think of :)

I wore this dress when I was 7 months pregnant and it couldn't have been more perfect. The dress is beautiful. Its heavy and it fell perfectly over my baby bump. I will definitely order it again, with and without the baby bump.

Perfect for being 8 months pregnant...
I ordered this dress because of the flowy fit. I was 8 months pregnant at the time and the dress fit perfectly. I got a dress 1 size larger than what I usually wear and it was great!
