Loved this dress!
I normally wear a size 4, but I found that the size 2 fit better across the chest and ribcage. Oddly enough, the arms on the size 4 were tighter than the arms on the size 2. Not sure what to make of that, but the fit was otherwise perfect. The dress was a much brighter blue in real life and the color is absolutely gorgeous.

Definitely a conversation piece!
I'm not a huge jewelry type of gal, but I'm a sucker for rings like this. I wore this to my cousin's wedding and even my male family members loved this ring. Very cool!

Pretty necklace.
This is definitely a statement piece, so wear it with a more understated outfit.

Sooo many compliments on this dress!
I rented this dress for a vacation to New Orleans. I was (literally) stopped in the streets, bathrooms, bars, etc. by strangers so that they could compliment this dress. The fit was fantastic and the feather skirt is stunning. My only complaint is that the skirt molts quite a bit so be prepared to leave a trail of ostrich feathers everywhere you go. Other than that, you won't be disappointed with this dress!

Bow detail is the best part.
I liked this dress and the bow detail is phenomenal. The material was not at all what I expected, though. It was much thicker material than I expected (I likened it to a comforter I once had - I know that's a weird comparison, but it's very accurate). Overall a great dress and great fit; not sure I loved the material.

Loooooooove this dress!
I could not have been happier with this dress. I've rented several dresses from Rent the Runway and this is by far my favorite dress so far. The fit was absolutely perfect and it was just stunning. I've never had the desire to rent a dress a second time, but I would rent this one again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

Meh...
I'm not much of a jewelry/accessories kind of gal, so take this review with a grain of salt. The only bracelet-type jewelry that I will typically wear are bangle bracelets, so I was super excited when I saw these. However, I chose a lace dress to wear with them and they were constantly threatening to catch on the lace and do terrible things to it. I wore the bangles for about 5 minutes and then decided against them. So much for that...

Ah-mazing dress!
I'll get this out of the way first: yes, the dress is a tad bit short. Just don't bend at the waist and you'll be fine; otherwise there will be a full moon a'rising. The dress fit absolutely perfectly. I could not have been happier with the fit and the overall look. I got compliments all night on what a fantastic dress I was wearing. The cut and style are very forgiving, especially if your problem area is your stomach or waist. The fit and flare style draws attention away from the stomach/waist areas and I was so happy to wear something other than a strapless dress. Rent the Runway is a fantastic company and the garments are very well taken care of. I was somewhat hesitant to rent a dress, but after this experience I will never buy another formal dress ever again. Seriously. I would recommend Rent the Runway to anyone and I would recommend this dress in particular to everyone.
