This Dress is Why I Love Rent The Runway

(Sorry for the horrible photo!) I was nervous about this dress but it was amazing. I got compliments from folks in the fashion industry and a complete stranger at the end of the night and I felt really good in it. Honestly I could live in that dress. I was worried it might be too tight but it fit really well. even though it's long sleeved and high necked it didn't feel matronly at all. The material wasn't too heavy - perfect for an inside/outside event in the mid 60s. I wore wedges and it wasn't dragging at all. There is a semi open back and I wish I'd been able to be a little more creative with the bra situation.

Elevated maxi dress perfection

I needed something for a spring outdoor event that was nice, but not formal, and this was perfect. The fit was great and also very forgiving. The slightly open back definitely gave it a little extra. As others said, it was very comfortable.

You can't go wrong with a farm rio dress - very well made, and the fit is always perfect with this brand. I wish I had purchased it.

Head turner

Very fun and bonus being able to wear a normal bra despite the key hole in the back. I used fashion tape to align the hole and bra strap.

Bright flattering dress

I wore this dress to an island/tropical theme party. The dress is a little long, but it was fine with 2-3” wedge sandals. I received so many compliments. I think this dress would be great for a tropical vacation!!

Ran large but easy to wear

It verged on being too big and the sleeves were very long (and I’m a long armed person who rarely has an issue with sleeves being too long). That said, it was comfortable and pretty. The open back makes a regular bra unwearable but the blousy pleated front sort of disguises bra-less-ness if you are comfortable going that route

Fun Comfortable Dress

Loved this dress, so comfortable and flattering, didn't realize the back was open when I picked it but it ended up working out fine I just had to adjust the bra I was going to wear so it was lower on my back. Many compliments!

It fit perfectly and I received tons of compliments

Make sure you wear heels as it is floor length. I wore 2 inch heeled black western boots and it raised it perfectly. I went bra-less but if you want to fill out the top more there is space to wear a bra. Synched perfectly at the waist and not too tight at all.

Great for maternity!

Dress was a great fit for almost 30 weeks pregnant! I’m 5’3” and usually a small, but got a medium to ensure the bump wouldn’t be a problem. Sleeves are a little long. Received many compliments!

Super comfy and gorgeous

The material was high quality and it was stretchy enough to have a little give. I could've probably even done a small and been ok. It was longer than I hoped but I'm short so I wore heels. Colors were bold but not overpowering and it stood out as a high quality piece.

Obsessed!!!

FarmRio knocked it out of the park again! Stunning coral color and unique elegant print. I wore it to a conference (with a camisole because of the open back) with boots and then to an evening reception with chandelier earrings and heels. Nonstop compliments. Strangers were coming up to me to start conversations just based on my dress. 10/10 recommend.

This dress is amazing.

So comfortable. The color is gorgeous. It’s chic and I loved it. I wished it was a bit more fitted. So consider sizing down. That would have made it ultra flattering as well as chic.

Matronly, did not wear

Sort of a “governess” vibe. Broad shoulders, all shape lost in volume. Truly conservative other than the bit of open back. Maybe for a work event? Didn’t seem fun for a party.

A little big

Pretty dress! I wore for Valentines date night and it was perfect for the occasion. I thought it ran a bit big in the waist compared to other Farm Rio pieces and would have been more flattering for me personally if it was more true to size. I also couldn’t wear a bra without it showing from the back.

I got a M because Farm Rio outfits usually run small for me but this was way too much fabric and not at all for a petite person. Looked really funny

No go for smaller busts

This is a neat dress but the bust area is like a sack and unless you were a C or bigger it doesn't really fill up and then just hangs weirdly. Also, in the pictures it looks embroidered but its just printed on the fabric. Would not rent again

The fabric on this dress felt gross. I also dropped water on it and it formed a ring which looked like a horrible stain all day. I felt like I was wearing a bag and I love Farm Rio
