I was hesitant at first to rent a dress without ever trying it on but it worked out well! The dress fit like a dream and arrived exactly when the company said it would. I originally rented for a New Year's Gala the library I work for was hosting but the event ending up being cancelled. I hated the idea of letting such a gorgeous dress go to waste so with the help of a friend it became the star of an impromptu photo shoot. The fit was great for my body type and curves, showcasing my waist and hiding my more "trouble" areas like my hips and my tummy. The only issue I have is a I'm fairly tall and I ordered the long, but with a pair of low heels it was almost too short. I expected the fabric to be itchy and uncomfortable but it wasn't, however, you're for sure going to need help with that zipper! The bust fit well for me, but for someone with a smaller chest you'll probably want a safety pin to keep it from gaping, I ended up using some fashion tape just to make sure nothing would show in the photos. Overall I was very impressed and already shopping Rent the Runway for my next event--a Valentine's Day photo shoot!
