Comfortable!
Perfect fit and the perfect ‘Jean’ shade of blue so that it matches everything I pair them with. They have just the right amount of stretch to move in comfortably.

Happy color!
It was a little snug in the chest, I wore the smaller size because it fit better overall. Nice bright color and perfect weight for a warm September evening.

Stunning
I wore a strapless bra and didn’t have to wear any shape wear. The top was comfortable and not too tight, which can be a problem for me. I was able to wear my dress size. It was comfortable and although it was lined, not too heavy for a Florida June night. I wore 4 inch heels and it was too long, but it was so comfortable I would rent again. I would love to own it and have it altered to be shorter.

I paired it with a Jean jacket because it was chillier than I expected. I also wore it backwards to solve the gapping in the front.

Cool and comfortable
You can't tell what the material is like by the picture. There is a white shift which falls above your knee, under a fine netting which is covered in what reminds me of macramé. The netting would occasionally catch on my shoes. You will be able to adjust how much coverage you have on top with the adjustable straps. I had my husband help me tie the straps so that the bow was behind my shoulder. The large fit my body better but I felt squished on top, so I wore the extra large. Would rent again.

Perfect fit!
Wore this to dinner and the Piano Guys! Very comfortable and light enough for a warm night. And of course lots of compliments! Wore it with high heeled sandals in black with a short black cardigan because it was chilly in the air conditioning, but perfect for walking around downtown later.

Very pretty!
I couldn't wear this because it didn't fit on top, even with pins. But the fabric is pretty and the array of colors make it unusual. Sorry I couldn't wear it.

My favorite rental so far!
The top was form fitting and then the skirt flared out. So fun to twirl in! Besides the never ending compliments, there were pockets! Deep enough to keep my glasses in one and my phone in the other. Even comfortable enough to dance in!

I looked nice!
The fit was comfortable and true to size. I received many compliments during the wedding. The event was outside so I was cool and comfortable. I did wear a strapless bra because of the cut. But I was still cool and comfortable!

The dress was for an outdoor, formal, evening wedding in Miami. It only was it not too warm but a very comfortable weight for February in Florida. Received lots of compliments!

Fabulous fabric
I should have paid more attention to the reviews on how the dress fit. I would have been more comfortable in a medium, the arm holes were so large that you could see my strapless bra. I was afraid it would be tight in the chest and ordered up, but it was not. Other than the fit, the dress was a perfect weight for a hot night in the keys. The color was much prettier than in the pictures. Will most definitely rent again, in a medium.
Terracotta Blaine Maxi
Waverly Grey

Warm and Comfortable
Knowing from past experiences that the theatre can be cold, I chose the high neck and long sleeves. The slit up the side was high when I sat, but there is enough material in the skirt to cover up your leg. The dress is soft and stretchy, and clingy. A pair of spanx fixed that! I wore the dress with patterned tights and short booties.

Customer service
Rented last minute for a gala and got it on time. However, when I tried it on, the wires inside were coming through the fabric and poking holes in me, literally! Called customer service and they were amazing!! Got me the same dress, in a size that fit before the gala! Amazing! The dress was a huge hit, thank goodness they could replace it!

Super cute!
I wore this to a gala and it was perfect for the occasion. The 8 fit great overall. Sometimes I have to wear a size up so it is not tight in the chest, but not this time, so it fit great overall.

So comfortable!
I wore this for my son's 21st birthday party. The medium was tight in the chest, so I wore the large. When I sat the fabric pulled down so the back of my strapless bra was exposed, so next time I rent I'll use a pin. It was hot, but I was nice and cool!

The dress
It fits fine, just not very attractive on. The pleats look fine from the front but from the side it bunches. I looked like I had gained 5 pounds instantly. It does not lay nice on the top and you must pin it closed. There was no spring to the elastic and the waist falls and I had to keep tucking and adjusting through the night.

Turned out to be a cool might so I paired it with patterned tights and booties. It wasn't as stretchy as some of the reviews mentioned, but it was comfortable. Glad we didn't eat first!

The small fit better but was too tight in the chest. It was the perfect weight for a late summer wedding. Although I received many compliments, it felt and looked like I was wearing a tent.

Super cute, I wore the 8 because it fit better in the body, but half way through the night changed to the 10 because the top was too uncomfortable. Got lots of compliments and it was perfect for our 96 degree weather!

Fun to Wear
The dress fit great, and I got many compliments during the night. Only thing I didn't like was how scratched up my inner arms were because of the sequins. They were seriously irritated my the time we got home. I don't have any good pictures to share, all the pictures were me sitting down :)

Love the PRO!!
Would highly recommend getting the yearly club membership. So much easier than shopping and then not wearing the dress ever again. Just pop it in the mail and start looking for another event to rent a dress!

Got so many compliments on the dress, I was singing Rent the Runway praises all night!
The dress is a little tight in the neck, but over all the fit was good, I wore a strapless bra so you would not see my straps through the lace. SO much fun to wear!
