Okay I read all the reviews and still gave it a try, but the cleavage was just tooooo much for a wedding (especially with my coworkers haha). Ended up wearing my other rental. Loved the fit and the color though, great quality and length and so comfortable.

I wore this to a work employee award event and got lots of compliments. Although it’s velvet it still feels pretty light while dancing and it was just unique enough from a LBD. Definitely like this one! 

Wore this little beauty of a dress to a 1920’s themed gala and it was absolutely perfect! The color and fabric are beautiful; perfect for colder temperatures while still looking sexy and chic.

My usual size 14 wasn’t available so I took a chance on the size 12 and it fit like a glove (hourglass shape). It was so comfortable and I didn’t even need shapewear. I would have liked to have worn it as is, but it was a little too scandalous for the setting (meeting people professionally) so I added a tank top. This allowed me to wear a regular bra which was also a bonus. I got tons of compliments all night. Would definitely wear it again!

The fit on this dress was clutch. I didn’t even need boob tape. Wore from 1pm to after midnight and was comfortable the entire evening, including when dancing. 

So comfortable. I got many compliments on this dress. Velvet is lightweight and flowy. 

This was the perfect dress for a black tie wedding. I’m short (especially my legs!) so I was nervous about finding a floor-length dress that was the right fit for my body and I’m so glad with how this fit! I’m also small-chested, so the neckline was perfect for me personally. Considering buying this dress after my rental! Highly recommend. 

I loved wearing this dress to my friend's wedding! This dress is very low cut but it still works for more conservative settings if you have to put on a cami underneath like I had to. Very flattering and I loved the material! 

I loved this dress by Rachel Parcell! In my opinion, it runs true to size with not much stretch. I recommend renting your true size or a size up. This style is fitted through the chest and under the bust, and flowy at the hips. It works best for smaller chests as it was a little too much cleavage for me and I needed to wear something underneath. You can wear a standard bra with this dress. At 5'4, the length was perfect on me with heels. The velvet dress looks like the model photo and is great for fall and winter. The color on the dress is beautiful and made me feel elegant. It is extremely comfortable and there are grips at the bust to keep it from moving. 

The dress was amazing! Super comfortable material. I usually don't go for velvet, but the texture was really good and the dress was not heavy at all. Perfect for any winter formal function. I've never done rent the runway before but the process was so easy. 

I wore this for a formal wedding in January and it was the perfect winter dress! Got so many compliments throughout the night too

Amazing 10/10. Low cut so just expect that but it has some grip tape so the girls don't pop out. I'm flat so it didn't bother me how low cut it was. I felt like it made my waist look smaller than I really am. I could eat and drink whatever and was so happy. 

I loved loved this dress! I would wear it again and again if i wanted to be seen twice in the same dress! xo

Great fit, very comfortable. Beautiful shade of blue/navy. I did have to buy a special bra for it to not show because it's a pretty deep V neckline. Would rent again 

Loved this dress! It was so comfortable and the low cut was stunning!

ordered this for a wedding and couldn’t figure out what to do about the chest but i absolutely LOVED this dress!! it fit just right & waist was snatched perfectly. since size 16 is such a spectrum, I’d say this runs more towards 14/16

if i rented it for a non-family event I would’ve worn it. Hoping to find an occasion that I can rent this for! 

I absolutely loved this, wearing it to a sorority formal. I styled it with a structured lace bra top because it is VERY lowcut in the front. The fabric was comfortable and I danced for 3 hours easily in it! I would 100% rent it again.

Lovely, comfortable, and flowy dress. I am 5'1 and it was skimming the ground in 2 inch heels. 

I think velvet/this material is so cheesy and not classy  but this dress is PRISTINE. it's not pleated but has these lines in the material that really elevate it. The slit is perfect, not too high. I loved the plunge neckline and it had rubber lining so you didn't have any nip slips. I got so many freakin compliments on this dress. It was also crazy comfortable. Cannot recommend enough. 

I love the shade of blue and the soft, cozy fabric. This is such a comfortable dress, as fancy dresses go! Ultimately, I didn't wear this one as it was a bit too much boob for the audience, but if you've got a smaller chest (or if you aren't, but you want to give your date a heart attack 😄) it's a wonderful dress!
