Phare Silk Dress

This is beautiful. I couldn’t wait to rent this. Because I’ve rented a Staud cotton dress before that felt too tight in my size, 12, this time I sized up to 14 but I could’ve gone with my actual size. This is a gorgeous dress and I can’t wait to wear out to dinner. Get this one!! If in between you might be able to size down.

Wore this for my brothers rehearsal dinner. SUCH a gorgeous dress and so well made, the silk was so soft and the fit was beautiful. Such a comfortable material and easy to wear all night. The only thing I will note is that this dress had no give and did run a bit narrow through the waist so it may be slightly smaller than true to size.

Love the cut, the color, the feel of the material, the print, the quality. RTR please stock every flavor of this dress (I saw that Staud has lots of pretty patterns) so we can wear them all!

Rented both the 8 & the 10; the 10 was the fit at my current 155 lbs - especially with a Prix fixe dinner wine pairings…me clowning in the restaurant restroom since I could camo into all the colors :) Loved the dress for a fancier occasion as it is definitely Midi length.

If i could wear this dress every day, I would. Usually a 10/12 but the 14 fit like a dream. Thin, silky material, easy zip, sooo flattering.

Ordered the 12 and the 10 and ended up wearing the 10, loved this dress. The colors were beautiful and the silky fabric flowed nicely without being too clingy.

Fit perfectly, got so many compliments during the wedding!

I loved this dress! I’m normally a size 2 and dresses but the four fit me better. It was absolutely stunning and I got compliments all night.

Loved this dress! The fit is great and I got so many compliments. It’s really comfy, unique and just the right amount of sexy chic!

I loved this dress so much and received a bunch of compliments! So pretty and classy

I absolutely loved wearing this dress to a formal wedding. I ordered the 0 and was nervous due to some of the reviews but it fit me perfectly. The ruching was flattering over my stomach. I would buy it if I had other occasions to wear it!

The fit and flow of this dress was so comfortable, and I was able to go braless. Lots of compliments during the night and felt elegant! I would suggest getting the backup size larger rather than smaller. I was able to slide it on no problem, but if I had gotten a size too small, could imagine it would be hard to slide over my hips. I wore a 2 and the off the shoulder part was slightly falling down but it was perfect after one strip of fabric tape. (If you're going to use fabric tape on this delicate fabric, stick the tape to another piece of clothing a few times so it's not as sticky or it could rip/fray the fabric). The length was perfect for the cocktail wedding I went to. Fell right above the toes before heels, and with 1.5" heel was right to the ankle. I would def recommend this dress!

Good LORD! Strangers stopped me on the street. I had a pep in my step. Everything felt chic and possible and splendid. I wore her dressed down a touch with heeled boots for a girls night for this fall weather and loved it but it could easily go to a formal occasion or wedding with a small bag and heels. The side zip can be a little hard with curves but hey, that’s what yoga poses are for. And once on, she’ll snatch you like she was cut just for you. Just rent it. If I can find bite the bullet on this price tag, she’s mine.

I mean…this dress is just fabulous. I felt like a queen wearing it around Italy. The fabric is light but quality. Pure luxury.

Wedding DJ said he had never seen this dress before and he goes to a lot of weddings! Could have sized up for a less snatched fit because the drape around the waist really is perfect. Lovely fabric and great colors for fall.

This dress was everything I wanted for my intimate 50th birthday dinner with ~25 of my lifelong friends. It was easy and comfortable to wear, I got compliments all night long, AND I was able to eat everything I wanted. Would happily rent it again, or buy it if possible.

The silk drapes beautifully and the colors are stunning.

Slinky, flattering and flowy. Such nice fabric! I typically wear a 2 in Staud but sized up due to seeing other reviews of this style and I'm glad I did. There was room to move, but it's not roomy.

I wore this lovely dress to a Fall wedding to which the bride asked folks to wear colorful evening attire. I felt glamorous and generally comfortable, though I needed a Spanx-like undergarment to smooth out the bumps underneath the satiny material. I got compliments from friends and strangers, which is unusual for 50+ me. The only reason I gave this 4 stars is because it's almost impossible to zip up without an assistant to help you. It fit me fine, but the zipper is weirdly constructed so my husband had to really focus up to get it on me. Of course, no problem unzipping the silly thing. Beautiful + unique!

I wore this dress to a wedding rehearsal dinner and loved it. I got tons of compliments all night. It was super comfortable and a great length for me (I’m 5’3). I chose not to wear a bra, but you obviously could if you wanted to. My only complaint is I was unsure about the sizing. I’m usually a size 2 or 26, but it was way too small. I ended up wearing the 4 and honestly could’ve probably fit into the 6 if I had wanted it looser. Maybe it depends on your shape, but keep that in mind if you’re in between sizes!

I didnt love the way this photographed. Was so big in the chest area had to wear bra

love staud, great quality wanted to rent after all the lovely reviews but I hate fabric that sticks to you not flattering to me

I think this dress will flatter every body shape! I didn't end up wearing it because I needed something for cooler weather and this was just too light and flowy for the event. It was long for me, almost ankle length. It is really beautiful, I will probably rent again.

Wore for movie premiere. Clings to curves, beautiful drape at shoulders, front gathers hide a bit of a belly. Can wear your own strapless bra. The color is as shown in the online photo. Hit at the ankle (I am 5'5") Size worn L

This dress was more beautiful in person. I wore it to a wedding and got so many compliments! Love, love, love

Wore this dress to a wedding and received so many compliments. Extremely flattering and forgiving. Great length for the short girlies.

Just get it. Comfortable, show stopper. Someone said I looked “smashing” in this dress. Sums it up.

Perfect fit and super comfortable for dancing all night long. Wore to wedding and got a zillion compliments.

Super sheer so get nipple covers off Amazon instead of wearing a bra.

Color and fit are gorg! Although I would recommend some fashion tape at the shoulders as I had to shift it around throughout the night. Perfect for formal affair but could also be dressed down.

Sophisticated yet contemporary and fun due to the colors and pattern. Figure skimming without being overly tight. LOVE the real silk fabric instead of the usual polyester or viscose. High quality. Best rental I've had in quite some time!!

I am 5’3”, 125 lbs, 34B , 27 waist. touches my ankle, so not for heels. I have a bit of a muffin top, nothing a spanx can’t fix. Wrinkles easily

Great for a fall event

Will rent again

Light weight soft material. The part that went off the shoulder was a little lose, so I couldn’t bend down without holding it and had to make sure my shoulders were back. But super cute and got a ton of compliments.

I rented this for a black tie but it's quite light..more like a dinner or a party dress. I didn't wear. Also, I'm 5'11 so was pretty mid-calf for me.

Super flattering, I got a ton of compliments all night. Comfortable, pretty colors.

I was not able to wear this dress as it was too small in the ribcage and too long for my petite frame.
