I got so many compliments on this dress the entire night. I’m 5’5” and a 34D. It was tight in all the right places, but the top was a little big. I had to pin the insides so my bra wasn’t showing all night. I chose the 8 long so I could use the extra material to bunch around my waist, especially while sitting. 

Wore this for a gala and got tons of compliments. The dress did start to slip throughout the evening and I did need to pull up

This is a 12 I'm more of an 8-10 depending on fit. This was too big, but the 8 was too small and I love this dress so I just compromised. 

Tons of compliments! A little snug in hips. 

I got so many compliments on this and it fit perfectly. Even though it’s super fitted, I didn’t feel sucked in like I could still move in it. I adore this dress 

Agree with other feedback, the midsection on this dress definitely runs snug, but it is gorgeous. Got lots of compliments. The colors are bright and stunning.

I am a 34A, and the size 6 fit perfect, but was too large in the bust, so I was able to squeeze into the size 4 (my normal size). You need fashion tape to hold up the top if you are small chested.  The colors are even more vibrant in person.  This dress will not disappoint.  My favorite so far from Rent The Runway.

I received so many compliments on this dress! Absolutely loved it. It was the right balance of fun and elegant

I’m a curvy 5’2”, and the 8 fit great throughout waist, hips and thighs. However, the top was a little big. I used fashion tape under each armpit to keep it from sagging and it worked well. I wore 3” heels and with the slit it was just above the floor. Easy to walk in then! I felt good in it! (Wore to a charity gala)

I normally wear a six but the eight was the only thing available and it fit pretty well if a teensy bit big. It was a little long in the torso and big in the chest so I grabbed a rubber band and tied up the shoulder - it actually looked cute, like a little flower. I also added a sash for a little extra something and to help keep, the dress in place. Loads of compliments. It was perfect for my derby event, and looked great with my handmade fascinator.

Received many compliments. Fitted, yet comfortable. 

Beautiful formal gown.  Flattering cut that had a little give, packed/folded easily.  I’m typically a 2 or a 4 and had to size up to a 6 due to the stomach being a little tight.  

I went to a formal gala. I like people to see me before I enter the room and this dress did just that. So many compliments. It had the perfect amount of stretch. I sized up 1 size so that I could move and eat. All in all…this dress was the statement piece that I dreamed of for this event. 

Fits like a glove. Add a fascinator for extra flare! 

This beautiful dress fit like a glove and was super comfortable. I wore it “as-is;” I didn’t need to do a thing except slip it on. I received multiple compliments throughout the occasion, which was a black-tie-invited wedding & reception. It would have worked beautifully with heels, but I opted for dressy, low-wedge sandals = perfect. I paired it with a pink shawl for the wedding. I loved this dress; I had a hard time parting with it and would definitely rent it again!

I wore this for a business recognition event. I felt amazing in the dress and received so many compliments. It did not have as much stretch as I thought it would, but luckily fit! The length with a shorter heel was perfect! 

So I guess I should say I don't have curves so many be it would be better to say body hugging. Every part of this dress was perfection. I felt so festive and sleek at the same time! I can't get enough of this dress. 

Wore it to a 3 pm wedding in Florida. It was perfect! 

I wore this dress to a formal event in Southern California and it was perfect! The colors are gorgeous and it was actually long enough for me! The chest was too tight for a regular bra, so be prepared with a stick on. My only issue is that it wasn’t that comfortable to sit in and we did way too much sitting at my event.

What a fabulous dress!! 

So many compliments and it worked perfectly for my friend's derby-esque wedding !

Great material, structured and form fitting. The colors are so vibrant the pictures do not do it justice. The strap stays in place and is cut well for a strapless bra. I'm 5'8 and the 16L just reached the ground with a nice heel. Functional split, helps with mobility without being to high. 

It's great, RENT IT!

This dress was perfect for a gala.  I received so many compliments throughout the night. It runs true to size. 

Wore this on Valentine's Day for formal night on a cruise. So many compliments. 

This was one of my favorite dresses! Great for a formal destination wedding! 

Wore this to an Indian black tie wedding to match the energy of the beautiful bright colors of the wedding and received lots of compliments! Fit was snug but flattering. Would wear again!  

I loved this dress! Great quality and thick form fitting fit is very forgiving around your curves. Despite the snug fit, I was thankful i didn't need to wear shapewear underneath. I was between the 6 and 8 and while I could make either work, I ended up wearing the 6 because the 8 was too  loose in the bust area. Generally I have a hard time because I'm a 4 bust, 6 waist, 8 hips/butt. The 6 fit best up top and hugged my curves well!

OMG I love love loved wearing this dress. Wore for a summer wedding and it fit like a glove. I am 5'4" and wore 2" heels and the dress just touched the ground. The material is a little thicker but had nice give to it to zip into but still held its shape. If I owned this dress I prob would shorten the strap to stop a little gapping but fashion tape held it in place just fine. So many compliments!

I rented this dress for a formal wedding in June. I was a little hesitant about the pattern of this dress when I first received it in person, but it looked stunning in photos. The fit was super flattering and comfortable -- I loved wearing it! Received endless compliments throughout the night. I absolutely recommend this dress! As I am usually a 00P I am saying this dress runs small bc the 0P fit me well. 

I rented the 4 & 6 (I'm a 3/4 in jeans). The 4 didn't quite zip, so obviously I went with the 6. The fabric is thick and so flattering. The slit on the leg and the single shoulder strap make for a daring look but I love that my boobs are covered!! The print was bold and it came out great in pictures. 

I ordered this for a photoshoot and it was perfect. Fit perfectly and I didn't need a bra. The textile was stunning!

Dress fit very nicely and was comfortable to wear. I am 5’7” and wore regular length with flats. The dress just barely reached the floor. A heel would also have worked with this length. The off shoulder sleeve stayed in place pretty well. No problems with the top gaping or sagging. TTS. The colors are vivid and beautiful. 

Combining a bold pattern with bold colors can be tricky to execute, but this dress needs zero notes. It’s stunning, unique, made with quality material, and fit me like a glove. 

Super comfortable and dance floor friendly! Very flattering. I love the large print and bring colors!!! 

This dress was just the best. It was a huge hit at a late summer formal wedding, super comfortable, and incredibly flattering. Colors were bold and the fabric had just the right amount of stretch. I’m 5’5” and the 2P was perfect with flats. Tried the 4L (that’s what was initially available) and would definitely have needed hem tape. The 4 was a slightly looser fit on my frame and would have worked but I liked the form fitting of the 2. 

loved the dress, and was able to dance easily in it all night

The color is truly gorgeous on this gown, but the proportions made it hard to wear. I was strangely large in the chest area but way too tight with no give in the hips - so if you’ve got a chest and small hips, this is the right one for you! Not curvy friendly though and don’t think sizing up would have helped.

Wore to a summer wedding.  Looks great with a tan, got a ton of compliments.  Want to get invited to more formal events so I can wear it again.

I would’ve bought this in a heartbeat if I could afford it! It fit like a glove, wasn’t too long, and was extremely flattering. Love the colors!

I wore this dress for the formal night on a cruise. I absolutely loved this dress and got several compliments! I could have used the petite length (wasn’t available), but just picked it up when walking and was fine. 

This was a great dress!  I did wear spanx so I didn't need to worry about my core.  It was a petite cut but I still wore 3 inch heels

Loved wearing this dress & received many compliments. Fits fitted - true to size - very comfortable though!

The dress fit very well, and the colors were perfect for the "colorful black tie" event.

This one fit perfect, however I am 5’2” so I had to use some hem tape for the bottom, but it worked out just fine. 

This was the perfect dress for the Mexico beach wedding. It was fun and colorful, while still being tasteful and formal. It ran a bit large, especially in the bust area. I used a little fashion tape to keep the flap around the top folded down. The length was perfect and it was comfortable.
