Cool girl chic
ADORE this dress, flattering and edgy, the inner layer is tight fitting to create a smooth line but the top layer flows, so you don't need to hold your tummy in! Perfect for a holiday Party with plenty of snacks...

Not as chic as I had hoped
Just, not quite there. I like baggy dresses like this but the length and draping just make it look a bit maternity on me!

Another great rendition of a classic
I've rented this bag in several colours and finishes and I love them all. Great size, roomy enough for all my work stuff, but not big enough to tempt me to bring the kitchen sink...

Love love love!
Absolutely amazing leather jacket, buttery soft leather with really cool detailing. Runs small like most leather jackets seem to... SO size up if you want to wear anything underneath it!

Oh my god love
Perfect length, deep rich navy, and cut beautifully, the folds hang down in a way that sort of kicks out at the back in a really cute way. Runs a little big, not majorly, but the 6 was a little loose in the waist and I am definitely not a 4...

sweet and simple
A cute little bag (littler than I thought), didn't feel super special to me though...

Beautiful dress, fits like dream
Classy, with a little bit of edge, the lace detailing and off the shoulder look is very this season. Fit perfectly, the fabric has a touch of stretch (only a touch though) making it very comfortable to wear.

I rented this bag in black a few times so knew what I was getting. I love it, the size and shape are perfect and it is surprisingly roomy. I chose the blue this time to match the outfit I had planned, and I think I'll rent some of the other colours in the future.

Southern belle perfection
I rented this for a classy bachelorette weekend in Charleston and it was just perfect. Sizing wise: it really does not run small at ALL. I sized up because a few people said it ran small but I definitely should have stuck with my regular 6 because it was pretty roomy in the waist and chest area (and I'm not small chested). Still, I cinched it with a belt and it worked. Lovely cool cotton, perfect for a hot day of sightseeing.

Wore this to the New York symphony
And it was ideal, warm enough to wear in NY in the fall, and sexy without being over the top. My husband loved it :)

Wore this for and oscars party at my house, and I felt red carpet appropriate all night!
The dress is absolutely beautiful, it's long (maybe too long for shorter gals) and low cut (again, maybe not for busty girls) and the colour is rich. Looks expensive and is so fun to wear. My only complaint is that the fabrics is a bit rough so not the most comfortable dress in the world. But that's the price we pay for beauty right!

Perfect for a friend's graduation
I wore this in New York to attend best friend's graduation ceremony, and it was just the right balance of cool and classy. I paired it with flat sandals and minimal jewellery. Ran true to size, if slightly tighter in the arms

Busty!
Like any cuchnie this is immaculately cut, but unlike in the model photo, the clit in the middle is a full on one gap which shows off All your goodies. Beautifully cut, high quality fabric, just a fantastic pieces. Unfortunately I sized up due to comments but should have stuck with my usual size 6, so didn't wear in the end

Va va VOOM!
Can't believe we didn't get a picture! In the end a friend of mine worth this because it fit her better. She's 5'9" and an unbelievable hourglass, usually wears an 8, and this medium hit ALL the right notes for s night out in Miami!

Understated and pretty
I wore them with a casual maxi for a bbq at my friends house. They bought the whole look up a notch. Just what I wanted. Nice and shiny in real life, and not too big

I had never worn an ear cuff before and this was awesome. Pretty and edgy at the same time, I'm converted! And I didn't find it hard to fit in at all

Great dress, I'm just not grown up enough for it...
If I worked in fashion or art this would be fab, but for my casual media office it felt like too much of a 'fashion' piece. I did love it though! And the fit was great

I really wanted to wear this but it was subbed out for something I really didn't like. So neither for worn in the end. Thank god for my back up Elizabeth and James!

Sturdy and roomy, and cute to boot!
I rented this to take to SXSW for work, and it was ideal, just big enough to hold my little laptop, wallet, keys, sunglasses, and notebook. I loved how simple yet edgy it was, and paired it with the Barbara Bui biker jacket. Luv.

Two strangers came up to me to compliment me. Zomg!
I wore this to a gala and seriously two complete strangers came up to me to tell me how amazing I looked. One person said she had noticed me arrive and followed me to tell me how great I looked. I have never been so happy with an outfit! I used a lot of tape to keep my boobs in place, but I just about made it work on that front. Magically cut to stay in place against all odds!

Works perfectly on this tall and booby girl!
I usually wear a 6 but sized up to accommodate my boobs and it fit like a dream. The bottom part hangs like a skirt, but it has the sassiness of a jumpsuit. The top part is cut perfectly to allow you to go braless. I've worn this twice now and had so many compliments each time.

Great to dip into the culottes trend
Love Tibi, and things usually run true to size but these were pretty big. very comfy, and flattering in person, but do NOT look good in pics! Wore them to brunch with friends paired with a white tee and sandals.

Cute and easy breezy
Lovely soft cotton fabric, a great midi length, and a subtle, worn in quality that I love. Definitely runs large, I'm usually a 6 but I wore a 4. I wore it with a strapless bra as the straps showed with a regular one.

New York cool at a California wedding
Chic and sophisticated, but still fun! I wore it with black strap heels and a gold belt and felt a million dollars all night. I'm usually a 6 and wore a small, but a medium would have fit fine as well.

Annoyingly small
Just didn't fit what I needed it to fit! It was also quite worn, which I wasn't expecting for such a high end piece.

Looks cute but not that comfortable
Very heavy due to all the sequins, and a slightly awkward length for me. But I don't regret the hire! Rented it for every day wear and dressed it down with black skinnies and sneakers.

Can I live in this please?
Pretty huge and baggy but that suited me just fine. This was a dream on a freezing winter day, it's just as soft on the inside as out, it felt like being hugged by a bunny rabbit.

Sexy, simple, sophisticated
I want to own this. Clingy but not too tight, off the shoulder sexy without being revealing, this was ideal for an NYC birthday party. I definitely needed a strapless bra though... (unlike some people here)

Wow. Just. Wow.
It's when you wear a garment like this that you realise why high end designers can cost so much. The tailoring was unbelievable, so complex but so simple. Each fold of fabric was draped just so, and the internal boning provides just enough structure. I wore this to an Oscars party and felt like a goddess.

Fabulous!
I wore these with the lilac Alberta Feretti jumpsuit from RTR, and it was pure 70s glam perfection! Quite heavy, so not completely comfortable, and as they're clip on I was worries about them falling off. Still wore them though :)

Shorter than you think!
The way the buttons are placed this is actually SUPER short, I only realised half way through the day that I was in serious danger of flashing my underpants... The fabric is strangely stretchy which seemed a bit weird for a denim piece. Overall a really great shirt dress though!
