The train to floor was perfect for the show stopper. I am D bust and the built in bra held me all night. It is more of a corset up top. Very comfortable to wear. I received many compliments. I sized up to a 6 due to how tightly the top fit. 

I loved this dress. I'm usually a 2 but the 4 was perfect.

For added flair, I added a corset on top. Received so many compliments! 

I am normally a size 10 on top and the 14 fit a little bit loose. The 12 wouldn’t zip. This dress is amazing but I was totally off with the sizing. I got the 10/12 and then had to order the 14 last minute. 

Perfect fit little bit of stretch. So elegant

This dress fit perfectly! Got the 6 but couldn’t zip it because of my boobs. I normally look terrible and bottom heavy in dresses and I never ever wear them, but the stitching around the waist made my figure look amazing. No shapewear, no bra(!), perfect length just above the ground but I also had on very high heels. If you’re a shorty, be careful on steps. Top stayed put all night, no adjusting or slipping at all. Pockets were absolutely key, I carried around my phone and wallet all night and you couldn’t tell. Super light fabric. Give it a quick steam to get out any wrinkles. Love love love! I can’t recommend this dress highly enough!

I do recommend if you have big breast…size up.  I ordered the size 0 and size 2 as the backup and I am glad I did!  I will post and full frontal view once I get the pictures that were taken.

Size up. I am normally a 4 but barely made the 6 work. 

This dress drapes beautifully and has a flattering silhouette. It’s also lightweight and comfy! I had to size up about 2 sizes to fit my rib cage comfortably and it worked, but was a little big in the chest. I added a safety pin to cinch it in a bit more and that worked perfectly! I felt really good in this dress and would wear it again. 

I wore this dress for a black tie wedding. Got tons of compliments. I have 36DD, and opted to just use boob tape rather than wear a bra or go braless. I could have gone braless (which literally NEVER happens) but felt a little more supported with the tape.  I also have a short torso and wide shoulders, which means the 10 didn't zip at the top but the 12 prob had excess fabric. It looked fine and was plenty comfortable but if I were to buy this dress I'd have the torso altered a bit. 

This dress fit beautifully! So elegant, comfortable, fun!!! 

Wore this for my company holiday party. Simple, beautiful, and comfortable. 

This dress was stunning for a formal masquerade ball-themed Naval Award Ceremony! I loved dancing in it, and I’m convinced it made me look like a better dancer than I am. I’m short and the length was perfect in 5”heels. My tiny boobs barely held up the size 2, but a strapless push-up bra helped. The bodice was a little snug when I sat down, but the size 4 would have been way too big. I wasn’t feeling great that day, and the cut of the dress right at my hips covered up my bloated belly perfectly. Bonus: I came in second place for best dressed AND my 13yo daughter even said it was one of the prettiest dresses I’ve ever worn!

This dress is amazing. Didn’t need a bra and it has pockets. Ended up going with the size 8 as the size 10 was just a big baggier on me.

So many compliments! Great dress for a wedding or fancy night out! 

It fit TTS, maybe ran slightly big - other reviews said it ran small - not my experience. Comfortable and classic! Only problem was length in the back - was at a crowded event and it did get stepped on. But otherwise, great dress!

Wore this dress to a black tie wedding! Got so many compliments and it fit great! You can tell it’s a great quality dress. 

I wore this dress to my cousin's black tie wedding. I am 5'6" and 150 lbs, with a 32D (or 34C) bra size. I normally wear a size 4 or 6, depending, and I think a 6 fits me more often than a 4 so my plan was to order a 6 with a 4 as backup. I waited too long to order and they were out of the 6! I planned to try to slim down a little the week before the event to make sure I fit into the 4, but I love eating :) As it turns out, it was good I had all that that ice cream, because the dress fit perfectly! It isn't tight on the belly at all, which is a dream! It was a little tight on my ribcage, but not uncomfortably, and that helped it stay up. It was a wedding so I danced all night in this dress! I think it ended up making me look slimmer in the waist too. I can't rave enough about this dress. If I attended black tie events regularly with entirely new sets of people, I would fork over the $$ to buy this dress. Since I don't, renting it was a fantastic option!

Not sure if it was my tan lines, but it seemed the dress was a bit lower where it landed on my chest. It was chilly, so had  a fluffy jacket that I loved with it. Only negative was the hanger straps did not want to stay tucked in and since they are light grey they showed in a couple pics. Still...fabulous and of course the pockets were wonderful!!

This was my first Rent the Runway experience and it was great from start to finish!  I loved the selection of dresses and felt the reviews were useful in making a decision.  The dress came on the day I asked and it fit perfectly.  I did not need a strapless bra as the structure of the bust area did a great job of holding me in and feeling secure.  Heals are a must as the dress is long.  I wore this dress to a black tie gala and I felt beautiful in it.  Returning it was super easy.  I will be using Rent the Runway again for my next big event.

Would rent this again, the fit was perfect and I got tons of compliments.

I felt so pretty wearing this dress! So many compliments all evening long. It flows behind you as you walk, leaving you feeling like a princess. Did I mention it has pockets?! 🙌🏼 Incredibly comfortable. The high low style brings enough sass will keeping all the class.  I truly considered purchasing this dress because it’s so wonderful. 

This dress was perfect for a black tie optional event and I loved wearing it.  The high-low length made the dress more fun than a full length gown, but the materials is still formal (and it has pockets!).  I had to wear 4" heels so that the back wouldn't touch the floor, but it the back still touched the floor a little if I didn't stand up straight. 

Ran small, 10 didn’t fit around bust so sized up! 

Stunning dress, fit perfectly. Usually a size 0 or 2 depending on how the boob area fits. Loved it. 

Wore this to a formal summer wedding and I felt like a superstar! I have a broad rib cage so the 10 fit me just right around my back. This dress is so well made and I plan to rent again. I got compliments all night on the fit and look. Highly recommend! 

Absolutely loved this rental. It’s comfortable, and light and it has pockets!!! I ordered a size 10 & 12 and went with the 12 to accommodate my 36DD chest. A note for my short girls. I am 5’4 and I wore platform heels to keep the back from dragging. I had so much fun wearing this dress and received many compliments. I will definitely be renting this dress again.

Gorgeous dress and easy to wear. I’m definitely in the minority here… I HATE dresses with pockets. I feel like pockets and bulk on the sides and looks messy if you actually use them. I typically won’t even wear a dress if it has pockets and if it’s a dress I own I keep the pocket sewn up. That said, the bottom portion of this dress is flow enough that you don’t notice the pockets so it was fine  

Great fit, comfortable. Lots of compliments! 

It is pretty long. I am 5’9” and it almost touched the ground with heels. 

I didn’t end up wearing it as another dress I selected is the one I went with. This dress was amazing though. Fit true to size. Was a little long in the back as I’m short, so I would keep that in mind for the more petite ladies.

A lovely dress! Did not need a bra and the high low was perfect with 3” heels it made a tiny train behind me! Loads of compliments and easy to dance in! Great for twirling 

I'm 5,2" , 130 pounds 
Size 4 fit like a glove but the skirt is long and I wore 2 inch platform with a 6 inch heel to get the back to just float on the ground.

This dress is absolutely beautiful!! Very comfortable and it has pockets! Perfect black tie wedding dress!!

I have been renting from RTR for years and loved many dresses- but not like this one! This is by far the best dress ever. Super comfortable, fits curves beautifully, and it’s so flowy. When you walk it floats and flows behind you. Never felt so fabulous! And got so many compliments. I don’t want to return it!!!
