This dress absolutely dazzles!  My daughter wore for her County Fair pageant.  The color sparkled and it fit her perfectly.  Looked like it had been tailored for her.  We got a long and it was just right.  She is 5'7.  
**Customer service was outstanding!  We received the wrong dress and they made it right.  We are grateful because it was absolutely the perfect dress.  Way to go team!

Dress was amazing.  I received so many compliments.   I wore this dress to a Mardi Gras ball.    It fit perfect.   

This dress is cut to fit like a glove! It shows just enough cleavage and back to be alluring but not so much that you can't wear a bra. If you have smaller boobs (such as myself), a push-up bra is key since it really squishes the girls down. The sequins and light ruching at the waist worked perfectly to hide a bit of a belly without needing spanx. It is absolutely stunning in person and I got compliments all night long. In a room full of black and red (event was an American Heart Association Ball), it was a total stand-out. The zipper isn't super long in the back, so it has to go on over your head and having help to get the zipper up is best. I was able to zip it on my own when I tried it on but it took a few minutes. The lining can creep up when you first put the dress on, so just be sure to pull it down after you're first zipped up. I felt the sequins under my arms when I first put it on, but after 5 minutes I didn't notice them anymore and I had zero irritation at the end of the evening (despite having fairly sensitive skin). I'm 5'-6" and wore 3" heels so the 4R was the perfect length just brushing the tops of my toes in the front and having a little train in the back. I needed to pick it up on stairs (up or down) but had no problems not stepping on it through a roaming cocktail hour and dancing.

This dress was so beautiful it sparkled all night long compliments was non stop. The fit was true to size, the length could of been a little longer i am 5'8 with a little more length it would of been better. 

The only down side is that this dress is for someone with a little more boobs im 34B although i didnt spill  over I was very aware of it all night making sure that my boobs wasnt exposed. Other than that i must say that this dress was everything and then some.. 

Loved the fit of this dress! I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did but it was super flattering :)

I ordered the 2R and the 4R (as my backup size)... my original 2R was severely stretched out and fit looser than the 4R but RTR immediately responded to my concerns and sent a new 2R out.  It was absolutely perfect and fit beautifully.  I am 5'4" and 115lbs.  It was just right on the length but if I was just a touch taller it would have been too short to wear with heels.  I chose to wear a strapless bra with it for a bit more lift and coverage but it wasn't absolutely necessary.  When I tried on the 4R, the sequins rubbed my underarms and really bothered me but when I was wearing the 2R I didn't notice them at all throughout the night.  This dress really is so gorgeous... highly recommend!  

This dress was for a very formal event and worked out well. The color was amazing and I really liked the quality. Unfortunately both sizes I rented were a tad short for my preference. I'm 5'11 and even in flats the Long dress in both sizes barely nicked the floor. It's a great rental for anyone just a smidge shorter than I am. 

While not the most comfortable garment to wear, you will look like a million dollars in this gown, so I guess it was worth it.  Sequins do cause chafing/redness (especially in the underarm area) as other posters have mentioned.  Other than that, this was my first rental (ordered this for my 10th Anniversary bash) and I adored the dress from beginning to end.  I am super tall and was concerned about the length, but it was actually perfect, even with 2" heels.  Also it fit perfectly and was true to size.  Purple is also my favorite color and the shine on this number was incredible.  Would definitely recommend, just remember that there could be some irritation when you wear this gown.  Well worth it for my special night.  Will remember this dress forever...

Fit perfectly. Not sure which size I ended up wearing, I ordered the 4 and the 6. 

Rented a 2P because they didn't have a 0R. Length was great but dress was a little big in the chest. Overall loved it and would definitely rent it again!

Gorgeous dress. Fit well. Stunner. I recommend!

This dress was so beautiful & comfortable! I love, love, loved the back too. I originally got this to wear at a wedding but didn’t end up wearing it - I’m definitely going to rent it again for another event & actually wear it this time.  It fit like a glove & the length was perfect with 4-5inch heels on too. (I’m 5’5”, 105lbs, 34B). 

I rented this dress to WFH and literally did not want to take it off even to go to bed. It was so flattering! The stretchy fabric made the dress fit like a dream. It was easy to move and dance in it. And it was the perfect length: in 4 inch heels it just skimmed my pumps. If you're considering this dress at all, you should absolutely rent it.

I reserved the 4L and the 6L, but they weren't able to fulfill the 6L. I loved the dress, but it was very snug, and my boobs were spilling out. The lining at the top kept flipping over and showing as well. Super disappointing, because it is gorgeous. I'm 5'5"/137/34B/4 for reference. I like taller heels, but if that's not your style, the regular length will work. I did not find it scratchy for the short time I had it on. 

Loved this dress! I ordered the. 2 L and 4 R and ended up wearing the 2 L. This dress was perfect. So beautiful. The color was amazing and it fit like a glove. I got so many compliments.

This dress was comfortable, glamorous, and classy. I wore it for a holiday black tie affair for my partners work. We danced all night and I had enough wiggle room to enjoy dinner too. Compliments galore!

Sequins are always kind of scratchy but it photographed really well and was a very flattering fit

Alright, so I definitely LOVED this dress. Initially, I was worried that the dress would be too busty based on other reviewers. Thankfully, this was not the case. I didn't wear a bra and felt it fit perfectly. Honestly, I had wished I had brought a sticky bra for a little oomph. I wore 3 inch heels and felt the dress was slightly too long for me, thus a higher heel would have been perfect. 

My only complaint: The sequins! About one hour into wearing the dress, I realized my hair had made a huge rats nest - my hair had been grabbing onto the sequins. It took me about two hours to fully de-knot my hair the next morning. It was pretty nerve-racking, so I'd suggest doing an updo with this dress.

All in all, great experience with Rent the Runway. The customer service was a 10/10 - I was so thankful for the kind reps on the other line. :-) 

This dress is an amazing fit. Great for an hourglass figure. Will be renting in another color for another event.

This gown was a dream....showstopper for sure! It was so comfortable, easy to dance in and the sequins under the arms didn't bother me like I anticipated. The length was perfect with my 3 inch heels however, In the photo I was barefoot. I didn't want the night to end primarily because of this dress. I would definitely rent it again! 

This dress is gorgeous! It definitely stood out and I received so many compliments. It ran true to size. I am 5' 4" and wore 3" heels. It does have a small train, so you just have to be aware when walking up/down stairs and while dancing. The sequence under my arms didn't bother me as mentioned in other reviews. I am pretty flat chested but got away with wearing a strapless bra. I love this dress and would order again!! 

Fit perfectly. I have another event coming up and I was tempted to get this dress again.
