I loved this dress in red and cobalt blue - didn't love this one.
Fit was smaller than the others and dress was overall less flattering.

I had rented this dress in red before and it was the best dress I'd ever worn. So electric blue next
I love it. The only con is the lace on the blue was more see-through than the red. But I wore a 10 in the red and the 8 was a much better fit. I already rented it again in navy for a wedding....and will be wearing this one style in ROYGBIV all year.

Best dress I've ever rented.
I was worried about the cut and how to wear a bra with it...but was shocked that I didn't even need one with the boning. I'm obsessed with this dress. Dying to buy it and just rented it in blue for a wedding.

A little more red and less oxblood color than I expected.
I didn't realize they were clip ons! Which is my fault, but I had to take them off mid-wedding because they were getting too heavy.

More orange than red - but are classic and good pop of color. Loved.
I loved the look of these earrings but they didn't last...one popped off my ear on the dancefloor and the back had broken off!

Classic. Elegant - perfect for black tie.
Goes all the way to knee - even a little past. Very fitted at the waist and you need a strapless bra because the pretty lace detail on top is completely see-through. It's the kind of dress where you look hot but all moms etc. think you look like a lady too.

Very fun and cute. Runs big.
Would be good for Vegas or bachelorette. Runs pretty big and really drops off the shoulders.

Perfect. I loved everything about this dress.
This is the perfect prim and proper dress. Very Kate Middleton and the lace, sleeves, and back look better in person than the photographs online. It was perfect for a wedding and you just need a strapless bra and you're all set. I think it looks a lot better without a necklace because the detailing is great.

Didn't wind up wearing it. Fabric looked cheap in person.
Would not recommend. The dress is too shiny and wouldn't do anyone any favors, as they say.

These earrings made the whole outfit. I never ever ever wear my hair up but couldn't resist.
They got a bit heavy towards the end of the night, but it was worth it for a different look for a wedding.

Fun dress but don't love the fabric. There is no give.
Too tight around the middle and no give. I wore it once because it was ok...but I would never rent again.

Subtle and worked.
They were a little too delicate. The backs fell off at one point but otherwise pretty standard - a little smaller than expected but goes with almost anything.

This is the easiest dress in the world to wear. Loose but short.
The gold is more pronounced in person than in the picture - but not too much and the long sleeves make it more conservative. The sleeves are just the lace with no lining.

Very comfortable and easy - I would definitely recommend it.
The neckline hits slightly higher than I expected from the picture but everything else about the dress worked out really well.

Very flattering fabric
I was afraid the skirt would be too tight but the dress was as flattering as on the model and the draping was cut perfectly. Photographs really well. Top needs to be safety-pinned or taped to keep it falling exactly where you want it to.

This saved me from needing to buy a long dress. Fabric was different than expected though.
Photographs well but fabric in person is jersey and a little translucent. Chains fell off during the night but overall fit was great/flattering and worked for black tie wedding. I also went a size down from what I expected.
