A beautiful formal gown.
I rented this dress as a back up dress when my original wasn't available but it ended up being just as beautiful. I was going to a winter wedding in Colorado so I needed something floor length and somewhat warm, the material ended up being heavy enough to work well. I wore a sticky bra with it and it worked great. I wore a 6 because that's all that was available, I'm sure a 4 would of fit as well, I'm usually able to wear either size so I'd say it runs true to size. Very happy as usual!

Beautiful hair piece for a great price
I loved this rental! It added a beautiful touch without the expensive price tag. I'd totally recommend it. The hair piece is a decent size which is why I ordered it, I didn't want it to get lost in my hair or not stand out. You can also bend it to many different shapes so you can make it work well with any hair style.

The perfect something borrowed!
These earrings were absolutely perfect for my dress. They stood out enough without being over the top and their length was exactly what I was looking for. I absolutely recommend them for anyone looking for something understated and stunning at the same time.

Perfect for an outdoor fall wedding!
I attended a late September wedding in Colorado which means the day was 90 degrees but the night was 50 degrees so I spent a lot of time looking for the right dress and this was it! The slit of the dress kept it cool enough during the day but having something long kept me warm at night! I loved this dress and got a lot of compliments. I ordered a 4 and a 6 (I'm usually right in between both) and they both fit well. I went with the 6 to have a little more room for eating, drinking, and dancing and it worked great. The only negative for me is I'm about 5'6 and 5'9/5'10 in heels and the dress could have been another 2 inches longer so next time I may go for the 6L instead of 6R. Otherwise it was awesome, I totally recommend it!

A pretty bachelorette option
I agree with everyone, this dress runs small. I am usually a 4 and rented a 4 in a different dress for my bachelorette as well which fit perfectly but after reading reviews I ordered a 6 & 8 for this dress and went with the 8. The dress is gorgeous and it makes for a really pretty bachelorette option. I have a larger rib cage though so it was a bit tight and I definitely needed the larger size for it to fit comfortably.

The most perfect bachelorette dress!
I wore this for my bachelorette in New Orleans and it the perfect dress! I am a 4 and it fit perfectly, you also don't have to wear a bra which is splendid for August in New Orleans. I got a ton of compliments from people who loved it and the pictures made for great memories. This has been my favorite rental yet, I'd totally recommend this one!

This is a beautiful dress, the color and detail are stunning.
I absolutely loved this dress. The color is beautiful as well as the lace detail. Everyone loved it. I was nervous to rent this dress after reading reviews but I found that a lot of the good reviews were my body type. I ordered a medium (my normal size) and large just in case. I ended up wearing the medium, it was a little snug but I think it was meant to be, the large didn't fit at all. If you're average hips and average bust this dress should work just fine for you. I could see it being a problem otherwise because those are the two tighter areas.

A great NYE celebration!
This dress is gorgeous and fit perfectly for a NYE party. The dress is classy but still has that extra flare you look for in an important outfit. I loved the length of the dress. I'm 5'7 and way more legs than torso, I sometimes find that dress run too short on me but this one was great. My only con about the dress is that if you're like me and have a shorter torso there was extra fabric in the torso area.

I will always think of RTR for my special occasions now. Everyone who saw the dress said it looked amazing. Thanks!
I absolutely loved this dress. This was my first rent the runway experience and I have been promoting the website ever since to all my friends. I received a ton of compliments. The dress was elegant but beautiful. I rented a size 4 ( the 6 was sold out) and was a little nervous because of other reviews saying it fit tight. The 4 fit just fine luckily :).
