Reliable work to cocktails type of dress
Nice dress for the fall to wear to work and then out afterwards. It was fitted but slimming. Would definitely rent again.

Fun floral
Slightly tight in the bust for me so wore a black cami underneath to prevent gapping between buttons. This dress is a perfect combo because its femenine but not overy flouncy and the dark color give it a more serious and work appropriate fee. I really like the dress for fall and wore with black wedges and bare legs but would look good with tights too.

Colorful and classy
I got a lot of compliments on the dress. It's sunny and bright but not overpowering. I wish it was a little shorter. It hit below the knee for me so you have to wear pretty high heels.

Comfortable and easy to wear
Comfortable dress, fitted but stretchy waist band. Looks good with tights or bare legs, booties, flats, heels etc. Versatile and easy to slip on and go.

Flowy and fun
Overall I liked this dress. I had to order up bc I am busty and it was still a bit tighter in the chest than I would have liked. There is no stretch but I knew that going in. I had to wear a cami underneath since it was work, but had I not been going to the office, I wouldn't have. The skirt is quite full - beware gusts of wind! It had a vintage vibe I wasn't really expecting, but that could have been more the way it fit me rather than the dress itself. Overall it is a win and perfect length to wear to the office.

Perfect fall dress
Cute and the stretch makes it comfortable. I was excited to wear this now that it is past Labor Day and feels more like fall. It was really easy to wear, just throw it on and go.

Solid work piece
This looks really cute with high waisted pants or a pencil skirt. It is conservative enough for the office but not at all frumpy. The sleeves were not too tight or too loose and it is a nice subtle print to add some color for those like me who wear a lot of black.

Cute but short for work
I wore this to work and it was really on the shorter side for my comfort level. It is conservative on top but only hit mid-thigh (and I am only 5'3!). I would have felt more comfortable with tights on and wearing this in the fall. It would be nice for a casual date night, brunch etc.

Conservatively flirty
Textured fabric, thin enough for summer, nice vibrant color. I didn't end up wearing this because I rented it for work and I felt it was too short for my office (and went shorter if I lifted my arms). It is cute though and conservative on top but just too show on the bottom half for my use.

Interesting Top
This was a bit tight in the chest for me and loose in the underarm area. It is probably true to size but not right for my body type. It was ok to wear once on a day it didn't really matter, but the top wasn't a hit on me. It is good quality, lined and nothing shows through (always a concern with white!) and also good for summer (not too thick that it is hot). Overall, it is a win. Try it!

Cute work shirt for hot summer days without being too revealing
True to size. I was afraid the ruffles would look too bulky on my frame but the thin crisp material was perfect and didn't add weight or bulk.

Pretty dress for fall
This fits really well especially on an hour-glass shape. I wore it to a baptism. It is a bit lowcut so I wore a camisole underneath (you wouldn't need to if it was a date not a church event). Fabric is comfortable and stretchy and the fabric hangs well. It is a great dress for a business or daytime event.

Cute dress
Fit true to size. A bit tight in the chest for my size. The sequins were quite scratchy resulting in tiny scratches in my hands just from trying it on! I think this would look good on someone with up to a 36C chest. but on me, the size 6 fit perfectly everywhere except the chest, where it fit but gave a uni-boob sports bra type of effect (too tight so the fabric stretched straight across not looking the best). I chose not to wear it to my event for this reason. Overall it is a great dress though and everyone in my office who saw it loved it.

Compliments all night
I got a ton of compliments on this dress. It fits very well - once i got it on. I feel it runs a bit small but my sister helped me zip up and once it was on it looked good (though I would have wonrn the next size up if i had it). I had no issues of this dress sliding down as strapless ones sometimes do. I am 5"3 and got regular length. With a 3 in heel the dress is the perfect length just grazing the floor.

Fun, flowy floral!
Top of the dress runs larger than expected. I wear size 36DD and it was a little loose, including in the back. The fitted waist band part is very tight (and I don't have a large ribcage) causing the upper area to drape over the waist band the slightest bit. It still worked but would have been more comfortable if it was 1/2 an inch looser in that area. I rented the regular length which was still long (but I was at a beach wedding w flats on). The quality of the dress is good, nice fabric, looks like the photo. Overall I was impressed and felt great wearing it to a formal beach wedding.

Cute and playful
Fits true to size. It is short... not inappropriately so but I had to make sure my butt landed on the dress and not on the chair when I sat down :-) The slits at the shoulders are a nice detail.

Gorgeous Dress,Odd Proportions
I rented this for a wedding and unfortunately couldn't wear it. The dress fabric and style are gorgeous in person. However the straps are too long. The length from the bottom of the v-neck to the top that goes around the top of neck is too long and the T-strap that goes down the back is too long as well. Overall this caused the dress to fall too low and for the sides to be too open under the shoulders. Its a shame because otherwise it is a very nice dress. Maybe it will work on someone very tall.

Nice dress
I rented this dress for a benefit function I was going to with my coworkers. This dress is exactly as pictured. It fit well, and was interesting enough, but also conservative enough to wear to a professional event. The fabric and construction of the dress is very good and you can tell it is high end. It is also comfortable to eat and move in because of the flared bottom half I recommend it. I usually wear a 6 but I am pregnant (not showing yet) at the moment so needed extra room in the bust.

Shorter than Pictured
This is a pretty dress, but more suitable for a club rather than a wedding, which I had rented it for. I am 5"3 and the dress barely came to mid-thigh. I had to return it because it was too small for me in the ribcage, but had it fit, I could not have worn it for the occassion I had rented for anyway.

Perfect!
I wore this dress to a fundraiser event I went to for my job. I got a ton of compliments, the dress fit well and was flattering, sexy and still appropriate for a business event. I have a 36DD chest and this dress was very flattering on it. Would work on all sizes, and has a tiny bit of stretch. I would rent this again.
