This color was beautiful and perfect fit

This dress was phenomenal! It fit perfectly and hugged in all the right places. The bright red color was absolutely stunning and made such a statement perfect for my boyfriend’s birthday dinner. It felt super classy yet timeless, and I got so many compliments all night. Easily one of my favorite rentals!

Super cute - rums short

Love this dress! It was the perfect length for my height 5’3” but will probably be too short for those that are taller

Stunning one of a kind

When this popped up in new arrivals I immediately added to my cart. So beautifully constructed and one of a kind. It fit true to size and I loved that the straps were stretchy. It’s a tad on the short side, but I didn’t feel like it was too short. The top fits more like a corset and is not stretchy.

A vision in red!

I sized up in this dress based on other reviews and I’m so glad I did. I’m normally a size 2 or four in the six Fit just right. I loved this dress and would rent it again for a date night or valentines!. It’s tight fitting on top and I would not recommend this for busty girls. The straps are kinda stretchy material so the dress self adjusts. The material is on the heavier side.

short but cute

Definitely should have looked at the reviews from other people that said it was short, but overall I felt I could style it and the puffiness of dress made it not look so short

A tulip dress

I’m 59 and still love wearing short fun dresses. This cutie was perfect for a day event, great structure no bra needed. The bubble skirt is short but that’s what makes it so dang precious. I tried it for a night event with heels but didn’t feel the confidence wearing it daytime style with my boots.

Best Dress Ever

This dress was amazing. I wore it to a wedding and it was so comfy, sexy and adorable all at once. The top part was a little big on me but I am glad I sized up on it. The waist would have been too tight in a smaller size and especially after dinner.

SIZE UP but it’s so cute if your size is available

I sized all the way up to 10 for my ribcage and chest. However, it is great dress for more formal occasions that can be dressed down with the right items. Really loved the pockets being so cavernous, which is a great perk of having a bubble skirt. AKNVAS quality is exceptional…lots of structure in the bodice and sturdily attached rosettes that hold their shape. The bubble skirt and rosettes make it feel very trendy, so I really appreciate being able to rent something like this.

Unforgettable Vibrant Red Dress 💃

Loved this bubble print and floral front design! The fit was tight in the ribs, waist, and chest, and short skirt, but the fabric has the perfect amount of volume in the bubble and stretch to accommodate for a petite chest and height gal like moi. Loved the detail of the pockets and floral fabric front-photos can’t do it justice! Cannot recommend enough for summer and transitional weather, would look adorable with a cropped cardigan. Loved 🥰 wearing for a Birthday photoshoot with my Bestie Julia who I recommended RTR to-love her RTR dress together with this gorgeous AKNVAS cocktail dress! Looked equally stunning sitting and standing, essential for events and for dynamic disability style like mine. ❤️😍🫶🏼Add to your list pronto!

The cutest dress

Wore this to a “coastal cocktail” themed rehearsal dinner at the beach. It was truly perfect and can easily flex between a more casual cocktail event or something nicer because of the material. Loved this dress so much, super comfy. Need an event to wear it again to.

Mini perfection

Absolutely adored this dress, it was perfect to wear during my birthday weekend. Walking down the street almost every woman stopped me to compliment the dress. If it weren't so expensive I would purchase. Very fun, very short, very bright. Loved it.

Adorable!!

Loved this dress and got so many compliments!! It doesn’t have any give though I’d size up at least once, if you are larger chested I’d consider two sizes larger if you don’t want it to feel tight.

Would wear over & over.

Brand new with tags. Got a lot of compliments, and if I could afford it, I’d prob buy it. I usually shy away from red, but this dress proved me wrong. Fit-wise: tight around the waist and chest, no stretch at all. I sized up a few sizes and still cut it close. The material is on the heavier side, and the dress is short. Sitting down wasn’t the most comfortable. Still, it was beautiful.

Stunning dress, very short

This dress is amazing - high quality, tons of compliments but it is extremely short - long legs beware. I couldn’t bend over all night, and going a size up didn’t help. Absolutely gorgeous if you can make it work.

Perfect princess dress

I love this dress! It’s a strong red color. Corset vibes so you get the push up boob effect. Really short! I’m 6’ tall though. Easy to style. Statement piece. It was SO HARD to zip up haha I was practically sewn into it

Fit is a little tricky but it’s still an amazing dress

Was excited to receive this incredible dress brand new with tags still attached. I sized up based on reviews and was glad I did. I’m usually a 4 lately, sometimes a 2 or even 0 on brands with vanity sizing. I put the 6 on first and it fit so I didn’t bother trying on the 8. I MIGHT’VE been able to fit into a 4. The dress fit through the waist without being tight but the chest was a little too big - still either with a padded push-up strapless bra. Straps were way too long, but I fixed those by pulling them together in the back and securing them with a faux-pearl covered ponytail holder. The dress IS verrrrry short - definitely can’t bend over in it, but it was worth having to be careful not to moon anyone in as I felt like a million bucks in it when I wore it out to dinner with my husband on our anniversary. The fabric and the style of the dress are both very luxurious, and I received tons of compliments on this showstopper of a dress.

It was definitely a bit large on top for me, and it did feel quite short on the bottom, but I love the color and style! Wore this to a wedding and got lots of compliments.

I got tons of compliments on this at the Mayhem Ball. Ladies with big boobs- this dress makes them look even bigger so I didn’t love my pictures all night but I felt super cute and cool and stunning in person. The skirt is so well made and has a great poof effect. Gorgeous piece

Fun dress

I wore this for a lady Gaga concert. I am 5’10” 155lbs. Got a size 8 which was a bit too small. VERY short. When I bent over you could see my backside, but was wearing tights and was amongst fans wearing much less so it was fine. lol. Skirt is very puffy, adding to the playfulness of the look.

Too small

I have the denim size 8 on this designer and it’s an amazing fit. This one I could not zip up. It was NWT. Size 8 is already sizing up for me so that’s disappointing. I still did a photo shoot with my pup because the dress is adorable!! Beautiful red color. Didn’t feel too short for me but I prefer shorter than longer. I’m 5’5” about 140 pounds 34c. Straps are for looks. They stretch super far and don’t provide support but the corset top does so they’re pretty much for looks in my opinion?! @mlyayn
