I felt incredible in this dress! I got so many compliments on my special night out! If you wanna stand out and feel incredible this is the dress for you! 

I have had this dress on my wishlist for awhile waiting for the perfect occasion. I wore it for my birthday and it was 15/10. I received so many compliments and I felt amazing in it. I will say the sequins do scratch my armpit but it was worth it. 

Couldn’t zip it up all the way, there’s no give. Dress fit tailored otherwise 

Total show stopper, really shows off the curves and fit like a glove, I’m usually an 8/10. I will probably regret not buying this. 

I loved this dress for my holiday party. It fits snug in the bust and waist but is so flattering! I didn’t have any issues with it rubbing my underarms. 

The perfect fit! I got the extra size in a 4 and that fit as well, as long as I didn’t breathe. The 6 allowed for movement, while still flattering 

Lovely dress! The M was tight but doable. The armpit area does get poked with the sequins. Overall it was a very cute option and I was very happy.

I looooooved this dress. I wore it for my 40th birthday dance party, and I felt so GOOD. The material is thick, no shape wear needed to feel snatched and no bra was necessary either. I wore grippy cakes, but that’s it. Which as a 34D is not usually possible for me. I didn’t have the issue that other renters had with it being scratchy. I loooooved it! 

I wore this to the Backstreet Boys concert in Vegas and it was PERFECT! It’s thick so no need to wear a bra, and the straps can be unhooked in the back to make shortening or lengthening easier. Yeah it was a little uncomfortable/scratchy under the arms but no worse than I anticipated. Easy to walk and sit in. 

Fits like a glove and received a ton of compliments in this dress! I didn’t want to return it. It was super fun to wear and felt like a party!

I tried the xs, which probably would have worked, but the zipper wouldn’t go up past where the bottom and top of the dress were sewn together. Also, I didn’t have anyone to zip me in. So I went with the small. Good fit. I shortened the adjustable straps a bit, but that was all that was needed. I’m 5,5” and 115 pounds. It was pretty comfortable, a bit stretchy, and looked like a disco ball. I loved it!!

Perfect for a party where the dress code was metallics. Fit TTS to slightly small. You'll need someone to help you zip it. Narrow through the midsection. Straps are adjustable. Some stretch but not tons. 

Wore this to a gala and it was perfect for the occasion. Received many compliments. I love the large sequins. I also love disco balls, so that tracks, lol! It was surprisingly tight in the chest. I was worried I was not going to be able to zip it and required help. Once it was zipped it was ok. But it was difficult to use the restroom. I still loved it, but would size up next time.

Absolutely loved this dress! Stunning is an understatement. Extremely comfortable (spanx not required lol), easy to dance in and felt like a movie star. Looks great in photos! ;)

Loved the fit of this dress. I got a large because I’m curvy. 

Flattering fit, comfortable, and perfect for our school fundraiser!

Nice fit and perfect for a bachelorette weekend if you want a break from white! 

Pear shape approved! Also very comfortable. A good amount of stretch, but holds everything in.. The sequins didn’t bother me at all through a post wedding party with dancing and such. Super pretty when light hits the dress. 

Wore this dress to a gala. Fit great and got lots of compliments. Paired with a green suede shoe in March and was perfect. 

I got SO MANY compliments on this dress and I felt amazing in it. I’m broad-shouldered, smaller bust, but always a Large in the hips/bum and the Large size worked out great. Definitely snug, but I was still able to bust out some dance moves.

This dress fit so well. The sequins were a bit scratchy but I put some vaseline on my arms so it didn't bother me much. I got a ton of compliments. There is some boning inside the dress to give the dress some structure and to give you more of an hour glass shape. It's not very stretchy so there is some limited range of movement but the dress looks so good it's worth it.

I wore this as the party dress at my reception and it was amazing and I received a ton of compliments! The L fit perfectly on my 5'8/165 frame

If you are tall, stop what you are doing and rent this! It’s the perfect length, comfortable, NOT itchy from the sequins (because they are so large), and you can actually move in it. I wore this for my birthday and every person I saw complimented the dress. I danced all night and it was amazing.

I typically wear a Small and sometimes an Extra Small, and rarely a Medium. The XS in this dress ran extremely small, and the Small wasn’t even close to zipping. The Medium ended up being the perfect fit. It was definitely snug, but still comfortable. I was able to sit and dance easily. If you’re even slightly bigger in the chest, I’d strongly recommend sizing up one or even two sizes. That said, the dress is absolutely beautiful and I received so many compliments. Highly recommend! Just size up!

I wore this to a Sequins and Sneakers event and it was perfect! I love the sparkle of the larger sequins! I read reviews saying it runs small so I ordered the large and xl. I ended up wearing the large that fit great. I have broad shoulders but very small cup size, I added some extra help and the top fit great! Love the straps so the dress doesn’t fall down but I did have some trouble adjusting the straps tighter. The sequins on the armpit was also very rough and scratched my underarms but I was doing lots of dancing! I received lots of compliments and would definitely recommend! 

I wore this as my second look and got SO many compliments!!!!! 

I loved this dress!  I got tons of compliments throughout the night!!  I have been using rent the runway for 15+ years and this is one of my favorite dresses!

Wore this to the launch of my company and felt unstoppable. So comfortable. So fun. I’ll definitely get this again. 

Snug fit especially in the bust. I typically have to wear a bra but wasn't an option with this dress. It still worked beautifully. The only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars was due to a sequine oddly sown on the seam making for a very sharp object poking and scratching my arm all night. Be aware it's a possibility and it wasn't pleasant. This is a statement dress and not for comfort. Got a ton of compliments, though. Would rent again and cut the razor sharp point off. 

Runs small. Idk how i got into this dress but i did. Has very little stretch but it was super
Cute on if i didn’t breathe. 

I really wanted to love this! It is super fun, but the straps from the top are very narrow and hit at a weird place that causes some gapping. When you look up this dress on the dress the population website it is shown without straps. This one was confusing …didn’t wear it.

The dress fit well. Im 5'9" and very curvy, small waist with lots of hips and booty. I typically wear a M, I sized up to the L for more booty room, but then it was a little big in the bodice. Its also a little scratchy under the arms. But overall I loved it!

I didn’t read the reviews so my bad if someone already said this. This is a beautiful dress and I received many compliments. However, I suggest sizing up unless you want to stand all night. Hard to sit down when it’s too tight. 

Loved the look of this dress but ultimately did not wear it to the event. It was pretty snug fitting. The cut and design were quite flattering.  The silver sequins make you feel oh so fancy and ready for a night out. I’d possibly rent again but I’d have to size up. 

I’m a size 4 and got a small. It fit nicely everywhere except my chest (but that’s probably a me problem I’m a 34DDD

This dress stole the show! So many compliments !!!!. I used fashion tape to hold up the top as it does flap down. The dress was super tight and did slightly annoy my under arms but it was perfect for the event we attended.

This dress is will stop people in there tracks. It has stretch. You can wear cups and pasties if needed. But you will stay secure in this dress. The sequins are scratchy uber the arms but that’s to be expected. I highly recommend for a gala, nye or holiday party. The fit is true to size with stretch. 

Super elegant! Love everything about this dress!


This dress made me feel like 1 million bucks and looks like it should’ve cost it! It’s absolutely stunning! Heavy material but flattering on the curves!  Got stopped too many times to count! 

If you have a bigger chest, it may be a bit of a tough fit in the top at first. Once you move the girls around you should be good! Sequins are not uncomfortable but there isn’t a lot of stretch. 

I wore this to friend's lavish LA wedding, where I was also the DJ. Disco ball vibes! I received so many compliments! This dress is one-of-a-kind and perfect for a big party. I'm normally between a 6 and 8 and the L fit me best. Just needed to adjust the straps tighter. Other reviews said this was scratchy under the arms, but I did not have that problem.

This dress has allll the sparkles! The fit is great in the dress portion and very comfy as it has adjustable straps, but it still is a bit stiff and wide in the top. I would have given it 5 stars but the main downside is I had to wear a jacket as the sequins would have completed shredded my arms if I didn’t. Otherwise, it would be a perfect dress to really shine and turns heads! 

Thankfully, I read the reviews and grabbed a back up size medium. I am typically a size 4, and sometimes a size 6 if something is cut narrow across the hips or has no give. Because I saw a review where a woman reported similar and was unable to zip the dress, I grabbed the backup size. Thank goodness that is an option. I would not have possibly been able to zip the small. The straps are a different fabrication and in my opinion a strange fabric choice but my hair covered them. They are adjustable and that was helpful. The dress itself is very form fitting through the torso with a bit of give, but I would not describe this as stretchy exactly. I got tons of compliments and feel like this is a very forgiving silhouette. That would look good on a lot of body shapes. I happen to be a very hourglass shape and this dress hugged in all the right places.
