Easy to wear, chic jumpsuit
Rented this jumpsuit for New Years Eve. While I definitely was not in love with it, it was comfy, chic, and different. I usually size up for jumpsuits and rompers because I am tall, but the medium was perfect. Was still dressy enough for New Years, but not overly so. Not my fave rental, but still pretty great.

Backslash Jumpsuit
Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 8"
Bust: 34D
Gorgeous color, beautiful shoulder detail.
This dress was a tad wrinkly out of the bag and as I wore it, but no big deal. It's a beautiful color and nice material- got lots of compliments. Wasn't my favorite dress ever- but perfect for my best friend's rehearsal dinner. Wore it with a simple strand of pearls!

Cute dress, but meh
I rented this dress for my best friend's bachelorette party. Usually I wouldn't rent something so tight (not really my style) but I love Parker. The sleeves and back were very pretty, but the dress was just meh for me. Nothing TOO special, and I had to keep pulling down the skirt all night. I think mostly the dress just isn't my style- but I still think it looks super cute on other girls on Rent the Runway. Nothing bad about it, but nothing amazing.

Photographs well, not crazy about it.
When I received this necklace in the mail, a few of the rhinestones had come off. It looked pretty in pictures and paired well with my dress, but I wasn't crazy about it.

Runs small!
I was excited to rent this dress for a black tie wedding, but my usual size (6) did not fit up top. I could zip the dress, but it did not fit correctly or comfortably over my bust. RTR had to overnight me another dress! Perhaps the larger size would have fit, but bustier ladies beware and order a size up!

Gorgeous color, great fit, perfect length. Easy and fun!
I had originally rented the Monique L. Glass Slipper Gown for a black tie event, but it didn't fit. So RTR overnighted me this dress! I had rented the gold sequin version of this dress about two years ago for a wedding, and it fit like a dream then and now. The color is vibrant and different- looks great in photographs. Got lots of compliments. Although I am 5"8, the dress was not too long. Other reviewers said it was much too short, but even with heels, it was a perfect length. I danced all night long! I paired the dress with a rhinestone necklace, yellow shawl, and nude shoes. I felt tres glamorous! While usually I like to go for a dress that is a little more different/unique style-wise, this dress was easy and beautiful. I recommend!

This dress has a beautiful sparkle, pretty colors, and will make you feel special-yet comfortable!
I rented this dress for a bachelorette party in AC. The sequins were beautiful and I love the way the different colors flowed in the outfit- gold, silver, blue. However, the dress was a little short. I didn't mind that, but I would have preferred it a little longer. I loved the flowy sleeves and cinch at the waist. I wore a normal bra with it and didn't mind when the black straps showed;it kinda looked cute. I think I would have preferred the dress a tiny bit bigger, although the 6 fit. I wasn't absolutely crazy about this dress, but it was pretty and comfortable.

Adorable!
This dress had the cutest shape, was bright and different. I really loved it and got tons of compliments, however, the top was difficult for someone with my bra size. I couldn't really wear a strapless bra, because the dress was low cut and you could see it. I had to end up pushing the bra down and wearing it incorrectly in order for the top to stay up/fit/not show the bra. Perhaps I could have gotten a fancy bra for low-cut dresses, however in my experience it's hard to find any of those that actually work for my bra size. I did love the dress though, and got compliments from strangers. I wore the Nicole Miller star light star bright necklace with it- which was super cute. I felt great in the dress, just wish the top fit a little better!

Cute and comfy
This was an adorable romper- very comfy and easy and cute- but there were a few issues with it. First, because I am tall, I absolutely had to size up or else it was much too short. And in sizing up, it was a little baggy/ I felt made me look a little wider than I am. However, it was very easy to wear, adorable, fit great up top and you could wear it with a normal bra. Loved it for my friend's bachelorette! and It was different than just a little black dress.

Prettier in the picture
This necklace definitely looks better online. In real life it was cheap quality and nothing spectacular. Would not rent again.

Ended up wearing a necklace I already owned.
This necklace was cute- but not as awesome as it looks on here- a little cheaper quality? I ended up wearing a different necklace that I have because it simply went better- but I prob would not rent this necklace again.

Very different and cute, but short!
This dress was very different and that's what I loved about it- but beware, it's see through- definitely wear nude underwear. And- it's quite short as well. It maybe would have been better for a cocktail/summer party rather than a wedding, but it definitely looked cute with gold accessories!

Amazing, colorful, perfect girly dress!
Loved this dress. Not too red- an interesting color. Beautiful material and the belt looked great even though I usually don't like belts with dresses. Paired it with a Amrita Singh necklace which was perfect and contrasting colors. Wore this to a summer wedding and adored it!

Beautiful! got many compliments. My boobs were a little squished in there- a strapless bra just didnt have the right support. It was beautiful !

graduation party dress
This dress was adorable, a little to bulky for summertime. I loved the draping. Got a lot of compliments; because it is made so well it drapes and fits beautifully. However, after renting OTHER drapey like dresses (from Yigal Aruzel [sp?] and Halston), I found I preferred them to this plain style. It is still very cute though!

Cute!
Agree with the review that the picture does NOT do it justice. It is gorgeous in person and I got a TON of compliments all night long. I got a small, and it was a TINY tight on the hips, but it was fine. I also have somewhat of a full bust and it was fine up top. Wore nude heels and a chunky rhinestone necklace. It was perfect!

This dress was incredible. I have never gotten so many compliments in my life. I felt glamorous and amazing and was sad to see it go. I'd say it fit true to size. Please rent this dress!

love! maybe fave?!
I usually wear about a 4 in dresses and rented the 0 in this dress. Definitely fit perfectly... so go a size smaller! LOVED this dress. Felt depressed upon sending it back. Got a million compliments and feel the urge to rent it again. Was so elegant, comfortable, and glamorous! Wore a necklace I had that looks just like the one shown; definitely wear a chunky necklace. Bracelet- a big gold braided cuff. Also wore nude patent leather strappy heels. LOVED IT.

felt amazing!
LOVED this dress. it was incredible. Got a thousand compliments and I felt so glam in it. Definitely runs large.. I am 5'8 and rented the 2. THere is a tight sheath-y thing under neath the flowy part- -which I didnt realize before. But it's stretchy, and no one sees it, so I'd probably rent a size down. LOVED!
