I wore the stress to receive an award and had the privilege of being comfortable all night, long and looking stylish. 

Fit was great, didn't have to spend the whole night pulling it up or adjusting. The mustard fabric was v luxurious - a beautifully designed dress and comfy as well!

I rented this gown for a formal event and was disappointed by two main issues. First, the color was noticeably different from what was shown online—it appeared as a vibrant yellow on the website but arrived in a dull, mustard tone that altered the entire look I had planned. Second, the gown was much longer than expected—even with 10 cm (4-inch) heels, it still dragged on the floor. While the design is elegant, the color discrepancy and excessive length made it difficult to wear with confidence. I hope Rent the Runway updates the product photos and sizing guidance to better reflect the actual item.

A little snug around my chest, but I think the rest of the dress fit fine! Maybe a little tighter than intended. Order TTS for that shift dress look. I love the contrast of the yellow against the black velvet! This dress feels like the perfect blend of classic and modern. 

Wore this to a black tie optional wedding and received tons of compliments. Velvet/satin contrast was elegant and the fabric felt good. Was 5 months pregnant and had great movement in the dress while not feeling like I was in a tent. Also wore 3.5” heels and the length was still flattering.
