My favorite rental

I have never loved a rental more than this one. It looks effortless but is a compliment magnet. Multiple people stopped me to ask where I got it. The colors are perfect and the pattern is unique without being overpowering in person. Waist cinches very well.

It’s Hunter Bell! Need I say more?!

First Impressions: Beautiful color and quality; a lot of fabric Basic Features: lined dress; collar; tie waist Quality: still in good shape, would hold up well if bought Special Features: pockets; 2 tiny snaps inside the material that folds over just under the waist +/-: if you have a larger ribcage, size up; Mine is 27” and it fit perfectly; the area where the tie is (just under the bra) has a button underneath it and ZERO give Worth it?: Yes

Better than expected! Fit like a glove, loved the little cutouts that keep a classic cut feeling modern. Wore it to work and a baby shower and worked great for both.

Wore it for a shoot with our newspaper

I wore this to an interview and photo shoot with our newspaper, as well as to the TED conference. Both called for something creative, fun, and comfortable, and this delivered. The top was slightly snug- I had to pin the bust. The skirt has a tie waist that is flexible. The hips are open. There are deep pockets, and the length was midi. The fabric is a light cotton. It did wrinkle, but the pattern hid it well. I steamed it before both wears. This was funky, flattering and functional- would probably rent again.

Great conference dress

I loved the thick material and it travels well. Just beware that the bust area and waist is very small. I had to use safety pins to keep shut and a little hard to breathe.

Very flattering on postpartum body

I loved the style and vibrant colors of this dress. It was very flattering on my 4th trimester body where my boobs are at least 2 cup sizes larger than normal and I have a flabby belly. I am normally a small but the medium fit me best. The buttons covered my top half very well - just right. There are 2 hidden buttons under the tie strap right at the waist and I had to safety pin that area because the buttons weren’t strong enough. Would rent again.

Classic with a Twist

I wore the dress for my son's rehearsal dinner. The dress was very comfortable and a pretty, trendy color scheme. I wore espadrilles which laced around my ankle. The chest fit perfect and somewhat snug but not uncomfortable (I'm a full A). If you are larger, it might be too tight on top.

Wore it like a million times!

I loved this dress!! Perfect for summer. Very comfortable. I wanted my dress to be made of cotton and cover as much skin as possible (I am very prone to sunburns). This dress did the job! Just one thing that I didn’t like: I couldn’t figure how to press this pleated skirt. The dress becomes wrinkly after wearing and washing, and it definitely needs pressing. I tried using iron and steamer, but it didn’t work. Perhaps it needs to go to the dry cleaning.

Wore it to work and out with friends. A little tight in the bust and waist, so I would size up if you're bigger busted.

Perfect all day dress!

Wore this on a recent vacation where we were walking around all day so impaired with white sneakers. Such a comfortable and fun dress with pockets! I sometimes have issues with button gaping on shirt dresses, but I sized up to a Medium and it fit like a dream. I’m usually a 6 in dresses. Couldn’t love this rental more!

Be prepared for all the compliments!

This dress has mad men vibes in bright colors without feeling like Christmas. Rented for a work trip and was stopped so many times in the airport it became comical. Amazing dress in every way. It's a bit snug in the rib cage area so be mindful if you're bigger in the back or chest.

Perfect and unique

I love this dress - the colors and stripe/floral print are really unique. Fit was perfect and I like that the skirt has tiny pleats instead of just being full and swingy.

Runs small in the waist

This dress is so cute and big 50s housewife energy. The fabric has 0 stretch. Size up if you have a chest. The buttons at the waist (just above the tie) pulled some and I am almost always a TTS 0. Size up 1.

Pleats are steamed out

As other reviews mentioned- it's very tight in the chest. Size up if you have a large bust. The gorgeous pleats have been steamed out- I would've probably bought it if they weren't ruined. It's still okay with them but with the pleats this dress would be spectacular. The dress reads a little Christmas-y in person with the green and red.

Fun spin on a classic silhouette.

The bust is tight - the pattern helped to hide the fact that the buttons gapped at the chest. Otherwise adorable…the pattern is part of the fun. I rented specifically for a birthday luncheon for a girlfriend. Served its purpose well.

Love the colors

I love the color and print of this dress, got compliments just walking down the street. It unfortunately is comically small in the bust. I had to pin myself into this dress. Also has these interesting snaps on the waist part which kept popping open. Such a shame because it’s such a great dress!

Super cute, tight in the ribcage

This was fun and adorable, and I got tons of compliments all day. The fabric is a lovely light cotton so it moves beautifully and is swishy and cool in warm weather. It is quite tight in the chest with no stretch so definitely size up if you are between sizes. Also the waist hit almost three inches above my natural waist (I have a longer torso), so something to keep in mind depending on your proportions.

Very feminine 50s vibe. Snugger than I expected but the tie at the waist covered up the gap between the buttons in that place. Felt like I should have an apron and pearl earrings on, super cute!

Cute but not the most flattering

This dress is so cute and the top fits so nicely. Only downside, which is to be expected, is that the pleats aren't the most flattering. If you are between sizes order up.

Christmas casual

Rented this for a chill and casual Christmas lunch. The dress is lightweight and is giving 50s housewife vibes. Loved that it felt like Christmas without a full holiday print. Lightweight fabric and allows for movement for cooking relaxing at home. Big fan of this brand because of the casual comfort. Following the reviews I’m a small but it was unavailable. I rented the medium and very glad I did. The chest was a perfect fit. If I size down, I’m sure I’d be stretching the buttons.

Compliments galore

I wish I had a photo wearing it. I may still buy it. It's my perfect dress. Classic silhouette, perfect for multiple occasions (work, dinner, church), AND unique print/color combo that works across all seasons. Not to mention comfy and functional (pockets!). Highly recommend renting this.
