Not for petites
This coat is comically large, I would not recommend if you're under 5'5"

This dress is great, I may come back and buy it. I am very petite and did not feel overwhelmed by the pleats or fabric.

Cute but weird straps
This dress was cute overall. The material is good quality and I liked that I could get away with not wearing a bra. However, the material is quite heavy and I was constantly adjusting the straps throughout the night to prevent a wardrobe malfunction. A bit of fashion tape might have alleviated that issue.

Cowboy Carter
Rented this dress to see Beyoncé perform Cowboy Carter, absolutely loved it and felt on theme with the vibe of the show. It was a slightly awkward length on me (lengthwise the dress might’ve looked better on a taller person), but I made it work with cowboy boots.

Great dress for Backstreet Boys
Wore this to the BSB residency at the Sphere to conform to the all white dress code. I loved the fit and I was comfortable while singing (screaming), dancing, and walking around all night. This dress is great because it didn’t read “bachelorette party” while being all white.

Cute top, shoulders slipped
This is a cute top and it fit well, but the shoulders were a little awkward. I’ve never had to reposition an off the shoulder top so many times 😂 but the color and fit are beautiful if you don’t plan on raising your arms much.

I love this dress so much that I might buy it. I wore it to a party one day and to work a different day and got lots of compliments. Fits great and super flattering.

So cute!
Wore this for a park picnic and re-wore on my honeymoon. The fabric is so nice and breezy and the silhouette is so pretty. Rent it!

Baggy as hell, but somehow perfect
These shorts definitely live up to their name, so I would recommend going one size down. That being said, the addition of a belt makes these shorts look so perfect, even for a petite person such as myself.

Cute dress for bridal events
I rented this dress for my bachelorette and loved it so much that I kept it to wear at my rehearsal dinner. I am 5’1” on a good day and the dress was a nice, non-awkward length with low heels. Highly recommend.

Rent this dress!
Loved this dress and highly recommend! The ribbed (crinkled?) texture of the fabric is not apparent from the model photo, but looks elevated in person. I felt elegant and classy in this dress and received lots of compliments. I am 5’1” and the dress skimmed the floor in 3 inch heels.

Shockingly low cut
I should have read the reviews more thoroughly before renting this dress for a family wedding. Unless you are comfortable with 75% of your boobs on display, I would rent a different dress.

Cool colors, weird fit
Someone else mentioned that this dress had a circus tent vibe and I agree. The colors are vibrant in person, but the material is surprisingly heavy and shows wrinkles very easily. I am 5’1” and the hem of the dress was at my ankles, which is more of a conservative look than the vibe I was going for. Not bad but I wouldn’t rent again.

Cute, classy, and fun
Overall, this dress was a good rental. The colors are absolutely beautiful and unique. The dress was slightly tight around the knees, which made getting in and out of cars a little bit challenging, but I was still able to dance comfortably. I personally felt like the lace overlay made me look a little boxy in the midsection, but my friends said they didn't notice.

Cute dress, very weird sizing
This dress is beautiful, but sizing is STRANGE. Ref dresses notoriously run small, so I sized up based on other reviews, but ordered my usual size as a backup. The medium was so short that it was completely unwearable (a previous review mentioned that it was shirt length, which I can confirm). Somehow the small was longer, so I wore the small instead. I would not recommend this dress for taller ladies, unless you plan to wear bike shorts underneath.

This dress was glorious - so cute and flattering. I normally wear a size Small; I will say that I am v. thankful I rented both the Small and the Medium, because my attempt to bring the Small over my hips was, in a word, laughable. The Medium fit just fine, though. You can def go braless if that's your fancy, but if you would prefer to wear one, a black bra with thin straps is virtually undetectable under the lace.

Poison Ivy, but make it fashion
I have nothing but good things to say about this dress. I will say that I walked into a sea of black dresses at my office holiday party and had a brief moment of "what have I done," but that feeling subsided immediately, because the dress looks THAT good. I hover between a 2-4, and I wore the 4 to have a bit more room to move around. Plan your shapewear accordingly.

Going for the "glamorous disco ball" look? Rent this gown.
My friend gave the bridal party free rein to pick out our own bridesmaid dresses, the only two criteria being "gold" and "floor length." It didn't take long to decide on this gown. I am normally between a 2 and a 4, so I rented both the 2R and the 4P to be safe. The size 2 fit fine, but I am 5'1", and the 4P was the perfect floor-grazing length in flats; if you are close to my height and plan on wearing heels, I suggest renting the regular length. The extra wiggle room allowed for a few more hors d'oeuvres at the reception, if you're into that. While the dress is very comfortable and stretchy, it goes without saying that the sequined material tends to accentuate trouble spots, particularly in the front. It also exposes enough of the back to make wearing a regular bra out of the question. I wore heavy duty Spanx and a sticky bra, and I felt comfortable and secure (albeit a little regretful of all the times I said yes to pizza). The back is the pièce de résistance - it drapes beautifully, and if you have a booty, it will look like a million bucks. I got many compliments at the wedding for how the dress sparkled in the sun, and it looks pretty amazing in photos. Overall, the rental experience couldn't have been easier, I highly recommend.
