Gorgeous
Max Mara at its best. Beautiful print and fabric. It was long on me, like practically to the ankles and lots of volume. I wore it with a very cropped, sleeveless sweater to balance it out. My usual Max Mara size.

Runs pretty small in the bust area
Such a lively spring dress. I was surprised at how heavy it was. More of a party dress than a casual one. Rhe fabric is taffeta like. It was lower calf on me, tea length. I was sorry ri not be able to wear it but couldn't get it zipped in rhe bust area. Is quite small in the bodice.

Perfect spring knit dress
I wore this for Mother's Day brunch with coordinating pink mules and pure and got lots of compliments. The XL was fitted but not tight or unflattering. I wore Spanx with it but the knit is substantial and forgiving so it could go either way. It was about ankle length on me. It does require a racerback bra. Also, I was worried the white detail around the abs area would not work for my middle aged midsection but with the spanx, it was actually flattering. Gave me some waist definition. Great rental.

So good but didn't wear
Such a nice dress but it was just too short on me to wear in public. It was barely mid thigh in the back. But the dress itself is gorgeous. It's advertised as blue but it's more of an indigo purple. Pretty color and pattern and flexible tie waist. TTS. Great rental if the length works for you.

This handbag is outstanding
So badly want to buy it! It's the perfect size for actually carrying the stuff you need but not at all oversized. Super high quality materials and construction, including the interior. Beautiful yellow that's actually subdued enough to use a neutral. I love this bag!

Flattering, great for work
I love shirt-type dresses that button up the front bit hate dealing with gaps, especially on fitted styles. This dress has a partial zipper so it can be form fitted in rhe bodice with no gaps. Ingenious. Also has some inserts in the underarm area that make this dress more work appropriate. It dies wrinkle easily but not a deal breaker My usual VB size 14 fit perfectly.

Officially obsessed
Longtime Rosetta Getty fan and have many of her pieces I've collected over the years. I haven't been super excited about some of the fabrics in recent years, too stiff. These pants have changed that. They are so perfectly flowing and drape elegantly. Breathable fabric. The legs are super stylish wide. The 14 is a perfect fit and length. Might need to buy these...

Ridiculously small
I'm consistently a 14 in Max Mara bottoms and couldn't even get these on let alone zipped. They are so crazy cute and would be amazing for spring. But I'd probably need to go up 2 or more sizes to wear them.

Not great for bigger busts
I'm pretty consistent 12 or 14 for tops and jackets but even the 14 in this piece couldn't button. It's nice but size up. I also got the coordinating pant. Which is outstanding. It's a cute set.

Very elevated option for evening
I rented this thinking it was beige and simple enough I could wear it for day. Actually, this is a really beautiful dress for warmer evening soirees. It's a shimmery silver metallic with some nice detailing. I don't have a ise case for that right now, so didn't wear it. I did try it on and the XL was perfect. Fitted but not tight. Straps were a good length. I could actually wear this without a bra though it's bra friendly. Hopefully it's available when I've got the event for it because it's a definitely more than your typical crochet dress.

One of those rentals you're hard pressed to return! The colors are so vibrant and the fabric is a nice medium weight. Screams luxury. The XL is perfect fit for me. Soon room, but not too loose. It's cropped. I'm wearing it with rhe Rosetta Getty wide leg, high waist chino pant RTR recently added. Perfect combo.

Sadly, only wore once because it was huge on me. Which is odd for me for VB. I always need to size up. This is a lovely piece with great colors. Perfect for work. But on the heavier side so rent now before it's too warm!

The best bag rental
This bag is roomy, lots of pockets, sturdy but lightweight. I'm thinking of buying it. I get compliments every time I use it. The only minor drawback is that the double flap takes a bit of doing to secure, but otherwise, excellent work bag.

The best vest ever
I ended up keeping this a lot longer than I had anticipated and wore it a lot. It's just so perfect for the new preppy look. It's ideal for layering, not too heavy. The colors are kind if burgundy and dark aquamarine. Definitely could work for holiday looks. I'm short waisted and it hit my waist, so I think it's slightly cropped. Great rental.

Great dress but NSFW
Excellent dress, very pretty colors, comfortable fabric, flattering. Only problem which is a big one is that instead of a full side zipper, it's half zipper and then snaps on the bodice. This dress fit me very loosely but the snaps kept coming undone with too much motion, like raising my arms. Anyway, I wore the dress several times and loved it but had to wear it with a jacket. Otherwise, there's a revealing side gap.

Very nice pant, but didn't work for me
I was so disappointed that I couldn't get this pant to look good on me as it's a beautiful print and colors. The fabric is lighter weight and drapes nicely. But it was an odd fit. The legs and rear were super billowy. And the waist very high which didn't look great on me. Perhaps a size down would have been better. I think this pant isn't optimal for an hourglass figure.

Very elegant dress
I always need to size up one in this designer and it was true for this dress. The 14 fit perfectly though I'm usually a 12 in other designers. The dress is gorgeous colors and fabric. It's got a very elegant vibe. It's not something I'd wear to work, more like a semi formal event dress. It is lower cut and I had to wear my plungiest bra plus apply fashion tape.

Loved this skirt
I usually find that I need to size up in Max Mara but didn't need to forcthis skirt. My usual 12 would have looked better than the 14 I rented. The skirt is amazing. The different fabrics and oatterns are just flat out cool. On the long side, like ankle length.

Nice dress, hard to wear
I wish this had worked for me as the dress itself is terrific. Great style and colors. It's pretty heavy fabric, however, which made it warm to wear. The biggest issue for me was the fit. Even with tights it's too short for work when sitting. Plus, it gaped up top but was fitted in hips and waist. The dress kept shifting so I was constantly adjusting. I almost always wear a 12 dress and sized up on this one. A 12 would not have buttoned. I think this runs small.

Got the matching top and the set was adorable. I usually wear a Large in Farm Rio but glad I sized up. These shorts are very short so they hung a bit longer being so loose. Lots of compliments on the set.

Perfection from Bogo de Nor. Again.
I'm obsessed with this designer and absolutely love this shirt dress style. So many compliments and wearing a Bogo de Nor feels like royalty. I'm a pretty consistent size 12 and the UK size 16 was perfect. The dress is pretty long, like lower calf. Super pretty and great for warm climate vacation s. And live that the dress looks stunning with flat sandals.

Size down
I love Max Mara but generally have to size up. I ordered this in my usual size but it was very roomy, too much. Size down. Still, I got good use from this rental. It looks cute worn over a fitted tank and only do one button up. It looked so cute with the red Toccin shorts and also looked great with denim and a longer off white jacket worn over the shoulders.

Great statement pants
These are so fun! Look great with fitted linen shirts, tank top, chunky sweater. Very versatile. My usual size is 12 but in anything Max Mara, I always need to size up. I got these in a 14 and they work, but a 12 would be better. They are very oversized. On me they aren't cropped but probably because they fit quite loosely and basically hang on my hips.

This dress is so good! Great colors, premium fabric and the most flattering fit. The size L was perfect on me except that it was just too short for me. LIke mid thigh, which I don't do unless wearing tights. It's so lovely for fall. A great rental.

Just discovered this designer and love! This dress is casual yet elegant and really quality fabric and construction. Like something for a Hamptons vacation vibe. It did run a bit small for me. I'd get an XL next time. The L fit but I prefer a loose fit. Great rental.

Disappointed
RTR has carried this same dress for the past few seasons in different prints. I actually purchased on of them. However, this latest rental was nothing like the prior dresses. Flimsy fabric, sizing way off. I rarely have anything negative to say about RTR inventory but this dress was a complete disappointment.

Unique and versatile
Loving this rental but take note, it's very cropped. At my age, that means wearing it with high waisted bottoms, and it looks great doing that. I've worn it with denim, sorts and a skirt. Very versatile. You can see through the open lace design, but I haven't felt rhe need for a camisole. Large fit perfectly. Great transition piece into fall.

Cute and easy to get on/off
I loved the zipper on this, which made it easy to get on and off. It's definitely cut on the straighter side, more fitted than any other romper I've rented recently. The XL was a bit more fitted in rhe waist than I like but the overall fit was fine. I'd say size up. I wear a 12 pretty consistently and usually order size Large. Rhe Large in this would not have fit. Oh, and the colors and pattern are beautiful. This could easily wear into fall in warmer climates.

I wasn't familiar with this designer's sizing when I rented this and definitely could've sized down to my usual L. Even so, loved this dress. It's high quality, really elevated print and colors, and flattering fit. Mid thigh on me. I might rent a L and buy it, loved it so much!
