Looked a bit baggy
Even with the belt at the tighest loop, this still was not a cinched look at all. Rent if you're going for easy, light, and baggy look.

Beautiful, but wrinkles with time
Bring a steamer if you plan to take this on vacation! Overall, loved the fit, but I found it was *very low* and if I did anything vigorous (like dancing and putting my hands up), the low side would fall further down over my bra.

Beautiful and flattering, though see through!
As past reviewers said, this jumpsuit is see-through, especially the bottom part, so plan accordingly. I had a pair of nude Spanx that I wore underneath and that took care of it. Otherwise, fits beautifully. A bit long for petite ladies (I'm 5'1" and it almost tripped me a few times!)

Love, love, love but too big in the bust
This jumpsuit was my go-to on vacation, though the top was entirely too big/stretched out for me. This would be better for bustier women - I'm only a 34B and I had to wear a tank top underneath since the top portion kept moving around on my small chest.

Pretty dress - size down!
I liked the dress but did not end up wearing it since it was too big/billowy and did nothing for my figure.

Showstopper!
This dress is gorgeous and it fit like a glove, though I did have to size up. Some tips: if you aren't busty (which I'm not), you'll need to wear a strapless bra to fill out the top a bit more. The straps were already adjusted to their tightest point and I wished I could have tightened them further, but the bra helped to fill in the gaps. Also, I recommend unzipping the bottom a bit and leaving it open in the back - easier to walk around that way, and go to the bathroom, if I'm honest :) Otherwise, it's comfortable and I received endless compliments all night.

The fit and tie feature in the back of the dress add just the right amount of pizazz to an otherwise ordinary outfit!

Love, love, love!
I seriously considered buying this piece as I loved it so much! Super comfy, love the pattern, and it was super warm for these cold northern winters. Great for petites, too, as it is quite short.

Concept is nice but not for me
The dress design is super cool and I really dig the more abstract patterns and colors. However, this fit tightly around my arms and actually left red marks at the end of the day when I took it off. The material is also not super comfortable and the cotton slip on the inside tends to ride up and bunch as you walk around in it.

My second time renting this piece!
I love this dress! It is super comfortable and has just the right amount of unique-ness. It does fit a bit baggier; I'd size down if you want a closer fit.

Good idea in concept but a bit much for my everyday style
I did not end up wearing this piece because 1) I did not like the way it fit my frame, and 2) it was a bit "too much" for my casual work week. I might consider re-renting if I had a nicer event to go to.

Loved the fit, and so comfortable!
This is a great dress for everyday. It is definitely a bit more casual in person, though I am sure you could pep it up a bit with the right shoes and accessories.

Fit large on my petite frame
I did not find this flattering on my frame. For reference, I am 5'1" and more curvy in the hips than the model picture here. I felt the dress was a bit too baggy for me and did not end up wearing.

This coat is the bomb!
I LOVED this coat! It is so snazzy and instantly ups any outfit you pair it with. My only comment is for a petite lady with short arms the sleeves are a bit too long. Would still rent again regardless.

Beautiful, unique top!
Fits like a dream and adds the perfect flair to any outfit. I wore mine with jeans but you could easily dress it up to look a bit fancier. Also, surprisingly comfortable given that it has that glittery material on the outside. Would rent again!

Cute "mom" jeans
These jeans came up quite high, in fitting with the return to the "mom" jean style. I do tend to favor lower waisted jeans and I felt that these were a bit tight if you sit a lot during the day (as I do at work). Otherwise, they look nice and are definitely petite friendly. I am 5'1" and these came down almost exactly over my shoes.

Beautiful, yet slightly itchy sweater
I really loved the color and fit of this sweater! I took 1 star off because it does tend to lose a bit of shape the more you wear it (e.g., the turtleneck piece droops more) and it is definitely itchy if you don't wear something underneath. I found the sleeves very oddly cut as well - they would fold in on themselves and it was not a flattering look. It is already colder here in the northern U.S. so I wore thermal shirts underneath and it looked good still.

Lovely, casual top. Great for everyday!
I really enjoyed this top and I thought it fit well if you like the billowy look in the photo. The sleeves are really cute and added an extra pop to an otherwise plain-looking top. The fabric was really nice, too!

LOVE these jeans!
I loved these so much that I am getting a pair! The fit is so nice and the color is quite a bit lighter than in the photos - more of a charcoal grey than a black (which I what I was expecting). Even better, these come in both Petite and Tall sizes at the Madewell store.

The sleeves make the outfit!
The detailing on this top is absolutely gorgeous and I got a ton of compliments on it. The sleeves are definitely eye-catching and add a little extra pizazz to any pants you pair it with. I do have beefier arms and I found that I couldn't stop the sleeves from rolling up and squeezing me (a bit uncomfortably). Also, the zipper on the side was a bit tricky and takes some finagling to get down. Otherwise, loved it and would definitely rent again!

High-waisted pant lovers, look no further!
I sized up as recommend by others and these fit perhaps a bit TOO well. I could just slip into them and button them up but they felt quite tight and pretty uncomfortable, especially while sitting down. I also felt that they accentuated my lower abdomen perhaps a bit too much, as I looked like I had a "pooch" all day. I am petite so they ran longer on me, but paired well with a nice set of flats and had some minimal bunching around the ankles. They were fun but I would not rent again.

Beautiful, form enhancing dress!
This dress is gorgeous and fit like a glove (perhaps too well, as one of the buttons around the waist undid itself after a good meal). I did order a size down as recommend by others and the fit was perfect - definitely runs large in sizing. I got a ton of compliments and the material was super comfortable and airy for a nice fall day. 100% recommend for work or casual wear.

A bit too frumpy for me
I did not like how this fit me as it just made me look frumpy. Perhaps because I was not wearing it over the proper "form fitting" outfit that is shown on the model. I am also petite and this was quite long on me. I might consider re-ordering in XS as the weather continues to cool down here.

Not for me. Completely swallowed my petite frame, and did nothing for my figure.
Fits true to size. A bit hard to get over your shoulders when taking off (at least if they are broader like mine). For petite women, I felt the length was good. The sleeves are huge and definitely a statement! I did not end up wearing because I felt it made me look pregnant, which I definitely not.

The dress was lovely, thank you.
This dress is beautiful and it fits like a glove if you find the right size. As most people said, it does run small; I normally wear a size 4, but the 2 fit perfectly. Also, I am petite (5'1") and it hit right below my knees. Everyone is correct that you cannot wear a bra with it, but I was able to put some padded cups under the dress and you couldn't even tell. I got so many compliments the whole evening I wore it!
