Stopped on the street
I wore this dress to a wedding. It was a big shorter than I expected, and the extra material & pockets made my hips look wider than they are; however, I was stopped on the street a few times by people giving me compliments. Color was gorgeous, and I liked that there were sleeves. If it was a just a little longer it would have been perfect!

Wanted to love it, but...
I could not get this zipped, and even when it was incredibly tight around my hips/waist, the bust was just hanging there. Very odd fit. The pleats also do not do any favors to those of us with curves.

Too tight around waist
I wanted to love this dress, but it looked terrible on me. It "fit," but was incredibly tight in the waist/ribcage/bust area. Then the skirt flared out leaving my hips and butt looking huge. Maybe the next size up would have worked?

Back up dress--too big
I rented this dress as my back up mostly for the color, and the earrings shown with it (Kenneth Lane Aqua Drops). I did want to love the dress, but it was huge. I am usually a 14/16, but the 14W is much bigger than I expected. So much room in the bust (and I am a C/D cup) and it didn't hug any of my curves. It kind of hung there. Glad it was only my back up!

Compliments all night
I wore this dress to a wedding and got tons of compliments. It is so comfortable, and it flattered my shape, so I didn't have to wear spanx underneath for once! Just be aware that the sequins catch on EVERYTHING. It's not as low cut as I thought it would be. I usually wear a 14, but ended up wearing the 16 because it was a little more comfortable. The straps were a little bit and slid off a few times, but other than that it was fine. A show stopping dress!

Loved, but didn't wear
I rented these with my back-up dress . . . really, I rented the dress because the earrings were shown with it and I loved the combination. Looking forward to renting them again with a dress I will actually wear. Beautiful pop of color!

Beautiful
Wore these earrings with a navy sequin dress--they were my only jewelry. Loved them! While they were a bit bigger than I'm used to wearing, they were not overpowering at all. Almost understated, especially the color. The perfect sparkle to compliment my dress. Would definitely rent again!

Beautiful, but small
I have very small wrists, and this was a struggle to get on. Once I did manage to get it on my wrist, I was very happy with how it complimented by green lace dress.

So many compliments!
I wore this dress to a wedding and got so many compliments. I had to shout "Rent the Runway" about 100 hundred times to various people who asked me where I got it. I ordered the 14 (my usual size) and the 16. The 14 fit, but it was a bit tight. The 16 was too baggy in the bust and waist, but I figured I would go for it instead of being uncomfortable in a tight dress. My bra straps kept showing, which was annoying because the straps of the dress go in toward the neck instead of straight back over the shoulder. Other than that, I enjoyed my experience and the dress! Am already browsing for my next rental!

Did not wear
I did not end up wearing this earrings to a wedding because they were HUGE. I put them on and started laughing because they just looked so silly. They would have been so beautiful if they didn't look like door knockers. I guess these are for you if you like that kind of style!
