Stretchy snatching fabric
Honestly such a good feeling dress. The fabric is stretchy which I didn't expect, and it gives a great waistline. Didn't end up wearing since I rented 2 diff dresses, but would be so cute for any occasion. Definitely could dress it up or down.

Great color/material but small
I love a small purse, but this one didn't hit for me. I think bc it's so rigid and I didn't like my nails hitting the zipper. Super cute for a pop of color to a wedding or something, but not for an everyday add on.

10/10 Orange Bliss at the Opera
LOVED this fit with my blue hair and accents! Would’ve been perfect with boob tape, alas I forgot mine. Was comfortable without it, no threat of malfunctions. Length was spot on. Be sure to wear your no-shows! I didn’t wear shaping garments or bra underneath. Also I steamed the heck out of this dress and it still showed wrinkles on the bottom..just be aware!

Cute patterned take on a basic maxi
Skirt was so very cute! Not super see through like some white can be. Would say on the smaller side of fit. I could still wear it, but size S would’ve been even better. The hips didn’t sit 100% correctly with the XS. Length was perfect for me.

Loved this jacket! It was a bit too warm (sunny 70s) to really enjoy wearing it, but would definitely rent again when colder. Fit was true to size, although it is structured so maybe not as comfy as some. Crop length was really perfect. Overall really loved and received new with tags!

TTS perfect skort
Loved the fit and comfort of this piece. It’s just the right mix of elevated and basic so you can dress it up or down. It fit true to size for me as I like my clothes tighter. Watch out even though it’s shorts in the back I wouldn’t call them full coverage!

Another 10/10 from AFRM
I’ve loved every sheer top from AFRM. I tend to be between a XS/S but I like the more skin-tight fit with these shirts so I always go XS. It’s perfect for a fall/spring day, and I wore only a bra underneath. The sleeves are long enough for my arms (not always a given with long-sleeve shirts), and the thumb holes are super fun too. Must rent!!

Low rise denim skirt
I loved this! Understand it’s going to be quite short, and is meant to be worn low-rise vs around the high waist. One star off due to the mechanic of the elastic tie, which would not hold in place. Also where the elastic meets/is sewn together was showing. Not a deal breaker, but could’ve been better.

Ringer baby tee perfection
Fit is definitely 90’s fitted baby tee so you might consider sizing up if you want a looser fit. Note it won’t be a normal-length tee regardless of the size you order. This was so fun for a Bratz-y look. Would love to rent again in the fall with the cute witch on the front.

Underwhelming and annoying
The purse has a flap on the inside I didn’t love having to open to access my things. The curved bottom made it seem smaller because larger items (square phone case) were an awkward fit. I disagree with other reviews and thought the looks of the purse match the photos, but I think it’s just underwhelming in person. Overall, not worth it. Mine was not missing the strap like others sadly reported.

Rides up, not worth it
I ended up not wearing this. Even though it was SUPER cute and my husband loved it, I didn’t feel confident in it because I wasn’t comfortable having to pull it down constantly. I all body con dresses ride up a little over time, but this one is BAD and with just one step! I think it’s the fabric. Maybe some stockings underneath would help, but I didn’t try that. Overall, just not worth pulling it down every 3 seconds.

Super cute, too small
I knew it would be small, but it’s also very flat which makes it hard to fit anything more than a phone and a lip gloss if you want to be able to zip it. Was cute, but wouldn’t rent again.

Pop of color, not too heavy
These were perfect for a night out to a hockey game. Blue, yellow, hint of light pink. The pop of neon yellow ball is cute but not very visible if your hair is down, hence why I chose this pic. I didn’t have a problem with them turning out, but could be due to the fact I wore my hair down. They do kind of sit at a slight angle when you wear them though. Overall, comfortable and a fun choice!

Odd fit, still cute!
These fit fine except for the hips (across the crotch) were too tight. They stretched out over time and were comfortable enough. Being of a thinner material and very flowy they make a great summer pant. I’m 5’8”-5’9” and these were almost too short. They hit just at the top of my shoe. I kept pulling them down to stretch out the hips and help with the length. Sizing up would make the waist too big, but would probably be cute for a slouchier/lower waist fit if that’s your style. I prefer a tight fit jean.

Cool fabric & stretchy waist
The fabric was amazing, very light and breezy for 78F weather. Length was spot on for me wearing high rise @ 5’8”. Loved the adjustable waistband, but needed a safety pin thru the bungee to keep it from slipping/loosening in the fastener. Word to the wise: do not wear high rise underwear with this skirt! Waist would slip down in the back when sitting and show underwear. The slit in the back is fairly high, so bending over is still not recommended even though it’s a maxi length. Honestly the top was my favorite piece of the ensemble, but the skirt was fun too. Worn to a casual wedding where the colors were green and purple, so perfect.

Deep V win
Great as an ensemble, but the top is the best part! The deep v-neck was amazing. I utilized fashion tape to keep it in place since the event was a casual wedding, but I could’ve worn it without tape and been fine. Also used 🎂 boob covers, but could’ve done without those too. Zipper on the right side helps getting into it. XS fit was true to size for me. My ribcage measures at 30.5” with a deep breath. I was perfectly comfy and danced all evening!

Fringe benefits
This bag was perfect! Love the magnetic closure for easy access. It was big enough for the essentials (phone, sunnies, lip gloss, moneys, lotion) but small enough to not be heavy even with all the fringe. Probably looks smaller in the pic than it actually is because of the angle.

This top is so cute and comfy! XS was perfectly roomy for me & my small boobs and cool enough in 78F weather. Great worn buttoned as a top or unbuttoned as a vest. I wore it over a linen dress I own for family Easter gathering.

Just ok. Should've sized up!
The best part about this is the material! Super cute pink velvet. Otherwise, not my favorite. Fit was small compared to the model. Another reviewer sized up to get that oversized look and I wish I would've done the same! Even if you don't want it oversized, still size up 1 size bc the elastic was so tight when buttoned that it was uncomfortable. The elastic was super twisted in mine so I had to work to get it back to normal. Also not as poofy as I was expecting, maybe just signs of wear.

Cute grease monkey!
This was such a fun piece! I wanted to rent a size Small, but only XS was in stock so I went with that. It wasn't bad (still wore it), but size Small would've been more comfy particularly in the shoulders and the torso length. If you have a booty and between sizes, size up! Zipper detail was cute to play with neckline. Material is thick canvas and relatively warm! (Worn in fall/winter.) Wore with white Converse to a local band show and was super cute! Was also cute with brown ankle boots.

Quality statement piece! LOOONG! Size down!!
These are definitely tall girl pants! I'm 5'8" and wore with stacked heel boots and length was perfect, just skimmed the floor. I'm usually size 27, rented the 26R and was comfortable, but could've sized down to 25! I like a tight fit pant, so that's up to preference. Definitely size down at least one size though! Very thick/heavy, quality denim material! Wore multiple times while rented. Crop sweater pictured is also from RTR (Nanushka).

WARM!! Very well made. WANTED TO KEEP!!
This came new with tags! At first I thought the fit was very large, but once you pull the elastic tabs on the sides it cinches and makes a super cute puffer fit! Would be ok to size down if your size isn't available. Also, this was SO WARM!!! I have never worn such a warm coat that was this cute! Compliments galore on this statement piece. Will definitely rent again this season. --> RENT THIS!!

Cute fit, size down. NOT denim!!
I should've looked at item description, but I assumed they are denim. Definitely not denim!! Very thin "lightweight" material more suited for spring/summer! Wore to a Thanksgiving meal and then pub after. Super cute with tucked shirt or crop top. The length is definitely ankle for 5'8" girls. Wore with ankle boots and length was perfect (hem just skimmed the top of the boot). If you want the fit to look like the model, size down! I'm usually size 27, rented these in 26 and fit was great.

AMAZING!! Crop turtleneck optional. Wanted to keep!!!
This was soooo perfect! The crop fit is phenomenal, the neckline is so fun zipped up or down, and the chain pull is added flair. Easily dressed up or down as well. Warm enough to wear without an undershirt, thick enough to wear with or without a bra. Slightly itchy around neck at times, but I seriously wore this thing at least 6 times before I finally returned it! Pants pictured are from RTR too (Jonathan Simkhai, I think). Wasn't planned, but super cute together!

Fall Bachelorette Party!
Such a gorgeous twist for the typical LBD! The only issue I had was getting it past my hips, which is an issue for rompers when hitting the Ladies' room. It's like the zipper doesn't go down far enough when completely unzipped, because I couldn't get the waist over my hips. Once I shimmied it past my booty it fit PERFECTLY with plenty of room in the booty! The lace arms don't really have any give, but it was still roomy for me with broad shoulders. I also went no bra and it worked great!

Smaller than expected
My expectations were nothing like what I received, but still so cute and I still wore it!! None of these count against the sweatshirt itself, but I wish I had known ahead of time! 1) I thought it would be a knit sweater, but it's more a sweatshirt/hoodie material 2) I thought it would be a bit loose and "comfy", but it fit more like a tailored top 3) It is sooo warm because it is lined! Oddly enough, the neck hole was super small too, so watch your makeup! In the end, SIZE UP!

ITCHY!! Tight fit but cute!
This was soooo cute as a tight fit mini skirt, but it was SO itchy even thru the liner! I had to wear an undershirt so it wouldn't scratch my waist. Would've been great with tights, but without them my thighs itched constantly! I wore it for a concert outing, but I took it off the second I got home. If you don't like tight fits then size up. Otherwise rent true to size! Not too short which was nice. Overall cute but not comfy, so I wouldn't rent again.

SO PERFECT
This dress was everything I hoped it would be and more!!! I didn't want to take it off! I rented this for my graduation in May. I was afraid it might be too hot based on previous reviewers, but even under a graduation gown it was still cool enough! -- The fabric is AMAZING and it's fully lined! It's a rich thick glimmering material and the color is kind of a really really pale blue but in a gorgeous hue. SThe flowy bottom fabric was so perfect! Would be SO fun to dance in! -- Fit is a little off, but not enough to notice on my. I'm 5'8", 130 lbs, 32C, hips measure 38.5". It runs small (maybe 1 size small?) on the bottom especially around the hips, but perfect up top. I ordered a 2 & 4, and this is the 2 that I wore. I could've worn the 4 on the hips but it was too large thru the bust. Overall I still loved it! It was sooo comfy except when sitting, because as I mentioned the fabric has no give. It was hard to breath when sitting if sitting up straight, but I was standing for a lot of the time. --I wore no bra, and the fabric is thick enough you don't have to worry about special underwear! I don't even think you would need Spanx. I loved that I didn't need a ton of jewelry with it because it is already such a stand-out piece itself!

THAT COLOR!!!
This dress turns heads for all the right reasons!! -- I rented this because I was obsessed with the color! Like others have described, it is the PERFECT bright pink to grab attention but not over the top in your face pink. -- Fit is definitely SMALL. I'm typically a 2 in most RTR dresses. Was going to order the 6 but it was unavailable so I went for the 4. It fit like a glove! Any smaller would've been too small because it definitely showed ALL my curves. -- I'm 5'8", 130 lbs, 32C, hips measure 38.5". Top was perfect without a bra, the bottom was tight and I had to pull it down every time I stood up to walk across the room, but it wasn't too annoying. Was comfortable to sit in. -- Could've worn a bra with it but I opted for some reusable pasties. Underwear need to be seamless or thong or Spanx! -- Because of the function, I chose a more business style shoe, but a cute simple strap heel looked super cute with this too! I got so many comments & compliments, I would totally rent this dress again!
