Oddly short in front
I think you'll need to wear this over shorts or use it a swimsuit cover-up, because it is a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen. WAY to short in the front.

It fit beautifully. I usually wear a 4 and the 10 was plenty big enough.

It fit well, but I will agree that the buttons do gape a little, even though it isn't tight.

What a fantastic dress. The sparkles give it enough pizzazz for evening, but I also wore it to work.

Great dress!
This dress fit so beautifully, and the material was nice and heavy and held it shape. It was a tad short for my taste, but I think most people would find it just fine.

It overwhelmed my shorter frame (5'4"). A very tall woman in my office loved it and agreed it would look better on her :) HA!

LOW cut, weird fit
I adore this brand, but I was disappointed by this dress, which appeared to be wearing me instead of vice versa. I have a relatively small waist, but it looked wide in this dress. I did not wear it.

Super cute!
I loved this dress. Took it down one star because the lining was sticking out of the bottom of the dress. Weird. LK Bennett is usually so solid. One additional note: I'm small-chested, and the dress fit perfectly through the bust, so perhaps not for those of you who have more to work with.

I have several Black Halo dresses, and typically they are true to size, but occasionally one of their styles runs small in the hips. That is the case with this stunning dress. 6 fit perfectly.

Light as air, breezy beauty in blue
I loved this dress! It even arrived with the tags still on, which I always appreciate! The color is like a pretty summer sky at high noon, and the overall look is so sweet. It's well-constructed, and the material is soft, comfortable, and cool. I wore it all day, and the knit didn’t stretch or sag. It’s not fitted in the waist, which might have been a tad more flattering on my shape. It is on the shorter side, but perfect for summer.

The slit in the front is a deal breaker
I'm not even sure what that's supposed to be? It's oddly high, especially for a sweater dress in winter. Maybe style it with leggings?

This dress will keep you WARM in the coldest offices
This is a fun, curve-hugging dress made of heavy material. There is a pretty pattern in the knit. It is flattering, to be sure. It is also VERY warm. I wore this same dress in red (from RTR) last year in small. I'm a pretty solid 4, and both sizes worked fine, but the medium was a little more comfortable. ENJOY!

SUPER cute, runs big
I loved this dress. It's well made and unique. It does run large. I've worn a 4 in this brand before, and it fit well. This dress was wide through the waist and hips. It fit a bit more like a shift than a sheath. Size down for a more fitted look.

Fresh take on the flattering color block dress
I love this dress! It makes your waist look tiny. It's very well made. The skirt is a fun, textured knit. I think it runs true to size. It was a little bit big in my shoulders, but I'm fairly small on top. If you're still going to work, work this dress!

SIZE UP, but rent this one
THANK YOU to the R-T-R community for the tips about the size of this dress. I'm a solid 4. Sometimes a 6. Rarely a 2. Based on reviews, I ordered an 8, and it fit! It was large on top (you can see that in the shoulders in the photo. I'm a pear.), but it fit perfectly through the hips. It does not stretch. The color is gorgeous, and it is beautifully made. Side note: This is the third time I've rented from this brand. I wore a 6 that fit great, I wore this 8, and I just sent back a 6 in another style because it was HUGE! The dresses are lovely, but the sizes are all over the map!

Beautiful, dramatic, sexy dress
This is a beautiful dress. The color is incredible. The little cape off of the back is fun. It is quite form fitting! The only downside to this stunner is that it is a little difficult to move about. If you have a long walk or plan to dance all night, this might not be the best choice.

The wrinkles ruin an otherwise flawless dress.
When I put this dress on, it was love at first sight. It fits BEAUTIFULLY. It fabric is light and soft and dreamy. Unfortunately, after sitting for just a short period of time, I looked like an unmade bed. It wrinkles terribly. The wrinkles do fall out when you hang it up or stand for a period of time, but as soon as you sit back down, the wrinkles reemerge in very unflattering locations. It would be great for someone who stands all day!

Very pretty! but pretty impractical.
This dress is absolutely lovely. The tie around the waist makes it especially flattering. It is fairly heavy and lined, and so you don't have to worry about it being see through. Two issues: it wrinkled a little too much for my taste. Also, if you can keep this spotlessly clean all day, you're a better woman than me!

I love this dress!
I am surprised with the negative reviews of this dress. I adore it. I've actually rented it twice, and kept it for several wears each time. It's in my closet now, as I wait for it to warm up a bit so I can wear it again. It's super flattering, especially for a pear shape. It's also very different from anything else that I wear.

Cute and slimming
I wore these on a date with my husband. They fit great and made my waist look super tiny. One note: I thought that these would be navy blue and give off a nautical vibe, but they are not. The color is more of a grayish smoky blue. Plan to tuck in a shirt or wear a cropped top, or the details that make these pants special will be covered.

Conservative style, sexy fit
It's another perfect LK Bennett dress! If you've rented LK Bennett before, there will be no surprises. The quality is amazing. The tailoring is impeccable. I had zillions of compliments. It's cut fairly lean through the hips. It's on the longish side. I'm between a 2 and a 4, and this dress in a 4 fit perfectly. I would suggest sizing up if you are between sizes, as there's no stretch whatsoever. Oh yeah, and I'm buying this one!

FESTIVE! Runs large!
I'm a pretty solid 4. Sometimes a 6. Never a 2. This 4 is large everywhere: shoulders, bust, waist, hips. It's just big. HOWEVER, it is beautiful. It's surprisingly comfortable for a lace dress. It's longish, but I'm shortish. I think it's perfect for the holidays or Valentine's day. I'll try the smaller size.

What a beautiful little BLACKISH dress
Oh how I love this dress! It showed up with the tags still on, which is always a treat. It looked TINY, but it has great stretch, so the size was perfect. Like other Sachin & Babi dresses that I've rented, it's made of this great, medium weight, high-quality material. It is extremely flattering. One note: I purchased it hoping that the evergreen color would be Christmassy, but it is almost impossible to tell that it is green, as it is very dark.

Runs QUITE large
I just returned this beautiful dress without wearing it, because it runs quite large. I'm in-between a 4 and a 6, and so I usually go with a 6 when I'm trying a brand that I haven't worn before. This dress was VERY baggy in the waist and hips. Size down, my darlings. It is however, quite beautiful in person. I can tell it will look great in the right size. I might go with a 2.

Wholesome AND Hot!
I love this dress so much. It is curve hugging, to be sure, but the fabric is so fabulously thick that it flatters your figure and helps hold in trouble spots. Shapewear recommended. Lovely navy color. The hemline is fabulous and flirty, hitting just below my knee (I'm 5'4"). Completely professional and appropriate, yet sexy at the same time! WIN!

Spectacular sheath dress!
I'm so obsessed with this dress. It is stunning. The color is perfect. The fit is incredible (like all L.K. Bennett it runs just a little small. I am in between a 4 and a 6, and the 6th is perfect. The neckline is so pretty and interesting. The slit in the front of the skirt is fun, but modest. The quality is outstanding. I've been getting tons of compliments on this beautiful dress. Rent the Runway has turned me into a HUGE L.K. Bennett fan, and this dress is the best of the best.

Nice LBD - not for pet owners or people who shed
This is a cute Little Black Dress. The neckline is fun and interesting, but the material is just so-so. It didn't feel especially high quality, and it had a grabby texture: every piece of hair or lint in the room stuck to it. I kept my lint brush at the ready all day. The armholes come down quite low. I didn't have any bra issues, but I felt a tad exposed for work. I'm in-between a 4 and a 6, and I'm happy I chose the 6. It fit perfectly.

Extraordinary quality, lady-like, perfectly polished.
Quintessential L.K. Bennett: this stunning sheath is classic, cute, and fits perfectly. In my experience, L.K. Bennett dresses tend to run a tad small through the hips, and I'm always happy that I size up from a 4 to a 6. It's especially fitted through the ribs, which makes for a very flattering silhouette. The color is more of an orangy, tomato red. I absolutely love it.

Classic DVF wrap dress with flirty, updated sleeves.
Lovely, professional but feminine dress, however IMPORTANT NOTE: not for WINDY days! Holy cow. The beautiful fabric is quite light weight, and I caught an unfortunate gust of wind, and my elementary school principal caught an unfortunate look at my knickers. The color is beautiful. I usual size up for DVF, but I wore my usual 4 for this dress, and it fit perfectly. I'm small busted, and definitely had to wear a tank top underneath to avoid an even more unsightly wardrobe malfunction. I will select this dress again.

This dress is magic. It is absolutely beautiful. I swear I lost 25 pounds when I put it on. Love it
It looked tiny when I took it out of the package (it still had the tags on), but I pulled it on and it fit BEAUTIFUL. I don't know if I've ever worn a more flattering dress. It is extremely comfortable. Longer than most of the dresses I wear (below the knee), but it is in no way matronly. It is a very work appropriate but sexy dress.

Elegant!!!!
This dress is absolutely stunning. It might run a tad larger than other Badgley Mischka dresses I've worn. I always wear a 4, but I think there was less breath-holding when I zipped this one up. I had to fuss a little with the neck to get it just right, but once I did, it was perfect. I got lots of compliments. The color is like a fabulous glass of wine. I'm 47, and I thought it was very age appropriate.
