Could see the potential, but the (not for busty girls) rumors are true
this was on my top 10 list for months. I absolutely love the style and had a strong feeling the cut would do magic for me. Overall this proved true. However, I wasn’t able to wear it. I usually wear an 8; sometimes a 6 or 10, depending on the chest and length. I am 5’10 and 34DD ish. After reading the reviews, I waited to try this until the 10 (largest size on RTR) became available. Overall, the cut and style was a dream come true, but it was tight in general, and the bust in particular gave me a very….. renaissance fair (???) look. All of this to say: if you’re busty, at least, it really does run like, 2 sizes small. Oh, and if it fits you, I’m jealous! Absolutely gorgeous, the perfect LBD.

warm, versatile, looks SO expensive
I kept this coat for a whole month -- not necessarily because I loved the look so much (although I did really like it), but because I live in WI, i only leave the house is to play outside with my pets these days (hence the green sweats lol) and this coat is WARM. For comparison, I also rented the black faux leather puffer by Milly, and while I preferred the fit, color, and overall look of that one, I wore this more due to its functionality. In terms of fit, i'd say it runs slightly large/long.

I couldn't bring myself to send it back all winter long!
At first, I had slightly mixed feelings about this gorgeous coat. The vegan leather is absolutely gorgeous — so buttery soft and seemed real, and I’m a sucker for genuine leather — and the oversized silhouette feels cool and streetwear-y. But, it's VERY puffy, which took some getting used to. However, I DEFINITELY got used to it; the more I wore it, the more I loved it. It was like an amazing blanket/pillow during a long plane ride! It makes every outfit feel 10x cooler. LOVE!!!

Prairie chic and sexy all at once!
I loved this skirt!! I'm tall, and the ruched side of the skirt was definitely a bit shorter than I anticipated, which I actually kind of loved. I felt the sexiness created a real cool contrasts with the skirt's little girl/prairie vibes. I found it ran a bit large, especially if you want to wear it high up on your waist. Nothing too crazy, though, so your normal size will probably be fine, just no need to size up.

Added a belt and absolutely loved it!
I wore this to work as a hostess at a fairly upscale restaurant; it could easily be dressed up or down for just about anything, though. Gorgeous colors and fabric, although it is a tad see-through. I'm a size six, but I rented a 4, which was totally fine. Since it's such a loose silhouette, I'm sure there's a ton of wiggle room when it comes to siding. Honestly, I wasn't really sure if I was a fan of it before I added the belt, although I didn't hate it. Just a little too shapeless for my hourglass figure. BUT I definitely couldn't get enough of it with the belt. Love love love.

So fun and seventies! Was nervous this would be tacky but I loved it
I knew when I rented this dress that I'd either love it or hate it. Well, I absolutely loved it. The material is super thin and delicate, the print has a level of detail and sophistication that I didn't expect. The fabric is thin and clingy in a way I actually liked, but it definitely showed my figure and didn't hold me in at all. Some reviewers said the fit/silhouette was odd, but it actually worked really well for long torso. I was able to wear a regular strapless bra with this.

Looks so expensive and luxe. Like a super glam vintage cowgirl queen AHHH
The title pretty much says it all lol. Wish I had taken a photo but it was so incredibly gorgeous and flattering, super sexy without really being revealing (although because of the wrap design, the dress has two super high slits that pop out as you move/walk - not visible when you're standing still but you had to be a little careful because it'll literally expose your entire leg). Material is thick and substantial satin silk. Fit is true to size, I'm a true 6 and got a medium, but it's the kind of dress that would probably still look fine if you didn't get your ideal size.

cute, but lower cut than expected
I actually liked this dress and didn't find the bodice overly tight like some reviewers. However, the straps were way too long and needed to be pinned to make them shorter. Other than that, the dress was super fun and flattering for an hourglass figure. HOWEVER, it wasn't what I expected based on the photo. I have a large bust, so I probably could have anticipated that I wouldn't be able to wear this to work (at a restaurant) like I had planned. That said, the dress barely even covered my nipples, so if you have big boobs you're not comfortable showing a lot of skin, this might not be your best choice. I don't think sizing up would really help, at least for my body.

COMPLIMENTS FOR DAYS
Ok, no I did not wear nothing underneath this, but after I sent it back I realized this was somehow the only photo I took in it, despite the fact that I kept this jacket for a full month. Never felt so sad to send a rental back. For such a statement piece, this jacket was shockingly versatile. Granted, I wear a lot of black, but I wore it with jeans, white, florals, stripes, leopard print, you name it. I think the fact that it's so bright and metallic made it match with more, because it didn't really have to *match*. It did run small - I have a larger chest and couldn't really button it. The quality, length, and design were all perfect. If it had been any less than $500 to buy, I might have caved...gonna miss this baby so much...ugh

Feminine and flattering, but runs small
Loved this dress, although the chest area was waaay too tight for my 34DD chest and the entire dress ran super small. I had nothing else to wear, so I wore a jean jacket over it to my party. By the end of the night I had baby welts on my shoulders because they were so tight. However, the dress itself was incredibly beautiful and flattering - just size up!

weird fit - wide and short
Ok, maybe it's just me, because this dress is clearly designed for a body type opposite to mine. However, that was not obvious to me before I rented it, so I figured I'd point it out to help other renters. I have an hourglass figure, with a very long torso. Given my long torso, the fact that the dress was incredibly short on me shouldn't have been to surprising, as that's a common issue. Still, it literally did not/could not cover my underwear, which isn't true for every minidress. Also, it was super loose/baggy in the waist, and even sort of loose in the chest area, despite the fact that I wear a 34F. So sizing up for a longer dress could never be an option. If I could have ordered a smaller size and add 3-4 inches of length at the bottom, the dress would have been AWESOME. Gorgeous color and so fun! Oh well!

Love the ultra high waist!
As someone with a really long waist/torso, I'm always on the prowl for super high waisted jeans, especially ones that are true/non-stretch denim. While I love Levi's 505s and similar styles, most "high waisted" jeans look more mid rise on me, and a really high waist can be so flattering/are the only way for me to wear crop tops with my long torso. These hit right at/cover my belly button, exactly what I love. For that reason, I bought them, and have worn them over 20 times already, even though nothing else about them really stands out to me one way or the other. I do love the wash, which is a lot darker than the picture. As far as size, I guess they're a bit on the tight side, but if you like non stretch denim, you're used to that, and I'd get your usual size. For reference, I fit a size 27 in both these and the Levi's Wedgie Fit jeans.

Made me feel like a total bombshell!
WOW!!! Easily the most exciting piece I've rented from my unlimited service so far. Simple yet sooo glam, plus the material is thick enough to hold you in and smooth your figure, yet so stretchy, it's crazy comfortable, too. The slit is pretty high, which I think makes it feel a bit dressier than you might expect, although I definitely think it could be worn fairly casually if you styled it right. In terms of sizing, this is a typical stretchy bodycon. For more structured dresses with less give, I often have to size up a bit because I have broad shoulders and wear a 34F, but the size small fit me like a glove, and my guess is s medium would have worked fine, too.
Compact Column Slit Dress

Super flattering, showed off my curves
Super cute dress- fit like a glove, material was super thick and structured, which made the dress very flattering and slimming. The neckline was really low, and kind of tight. While the dress fit great everywhere else, the bust was too tight (I'm a 34DD) and I kind of felt like I was spilling out. For that reason, a size 6 would have been a better choice, but I liked the dress so much I chose to deal with it.

Love the ruching!
This dress is made with the perfect stretchy-yet-thick material and the ruching makes it insanely flattering. Going to buy the black version to keep.

Felt so glam!
It was exactly like the picture! I wouldn't say this coat is super warm or practical, but it was definitely fun to wear. I wore it multiple times in a single weekend...the shade of blue surprisingly looks great with almost everything!

Cute, but thinner and shinier then I had hoped
I have been wanting to get in on the wide legged pant trend, and I love leather, so I figured I'd give these a shot. They were cute, but I wasn't blown away. The material was muuuch thinner than I expected (nothing close to real leather), and they were super shiny, so they felt much cheaper and trendier than I was hoping for. I did wear them once, and they were cute, but not really exceptional in any way.

Felt so glam!
I loved this jacket so much and can't believe I forgot to take a photo before I sent it back. It was so comfy and easy to wear, and just the right length to make my legs look super long with high-waisted black pants (I have a really long torso, and it hit right at my belly button). It's sort of hard to tell on the listing, but the fur collar is actually a dark, rich navy, not black. I thought it looked really cool and gave it something special, but it is worth noting.
