This is absurdly small.

Honestly, don’t even try it—it’s not sized right by at least 2 sizes, but who knows.

Rhinestone blazer

Didn't love this and didn't end up wearing it. The rhinestones are a little more glitzy than they appeared online, and they are gold. I couldn't find anything to wear this to/with.

Not flattering

Didn't wear. The cleavage was too much for the event I was planning to wear it to. I also didn't find the dress to be flattering. It was tight up top and across the back and poufy in the bottom. Pass.

Huge sleeves

I'm so torn on this dress. I liked the print, the fit through the middle, but the sleeves were kind of a mess for me. I know they are supposed to be puffy, but it was out of control. I ended up tamping down the puffiness by tucking them into the bottom part of the sleeves and then cuffing them. That's why they don't look as out of control in the picture. But throughout the night the sleeves moved and the puffiness was exposed. I ended up wearing a jacket to cover them and feel more comfortable. The sleeves just felt very Queen Elizabethian...too much for me! Maybe a more daring dresser wouldn't mind, but I'm still working on being more bold. :)

Drop waist = lose hips

This was such an unflattering fit, I actually laughed when I looked in the mirror. I liked the floral print and the neckline, but it totally didn't work on me. This might be a better fit for a taller woman with longer legs and a short torso.

Nice pop of color

I was all in on the hot pink collar. It added a fun pop of color to my outfit and pushed me out of my comfort zone. The fit was great, even though I'm short and usually have trouble with sleeve length. I suspect a taller person with a longer wing span might find the sleeves a bit short.

Very cool & versatile

This jacket fits well, as it has stretch fabric on the underside of the sleeves. The draping in the front makes it very flattering and cool. My only complaint is that the jacket has clearly been well-loved and is very worn. But I might buy it as a staple if the price drops a little lower.

Weird fit

I liked this dress for the most part, but it was kind of a weird fit. I couldn't tell if I didn't fill out the bust enough, if it was too big in the waist, not the right length for my torso...or just oddly constructed. The upper middle of the dress poufed out a little and made it look like I had an oddly placed "spare tire." Wearing a jacket with it seemed to minimize this, but as you can see in the picture, the awkward baggy pouf thing was still there. Great print and length, though.

Meh

The shirt is a nice color, and the fabric and construction are high quality, but it runs small and is almost a crop top--even on my 5'1"-ish frame, so it wasn't very comfortable for me.

Fun statement piece

I was so excited to rent this jacket because it's so unique and fun. But I think it's more edgy than I am for now, so I couldn't find enough pieces of my own to wear it with. I will probably rent it again if this service turns me into a more daring/exciting dresser. ;) If I do rent again, I will size-up, as the small is a bit too cropped for my liking.

Pattern is weird in person

This didn't do it for me. The pattern looks weird in person and doesn't seem particularly hip or trendy. I'm not sure what this look is trying to be. I don't understand why there's such a long zipper, & the jacket was too cropped for my liking.

Never thought I'd love a jumpsuit!

As a curvy short woman, I was not optimistic about wearing a jumpsuit, but figured if it didn't work out it'd be a short commitment. But I was happily surprised because I actually loved it and the pant legs were almost perfect. This is truly a staple piece that can be dressed down or up. For the occasion I wore it to, I decided to go full 80's and chose gold accents and no belt. It was comfortable and I know I'll wear it again and again, so I bought it. :) I will probably have it tailored just slightly for the best fit.

Not right for everyday wear

This dress is really cute and feels well made, but the front was a little too revealing in the cleavage area for my comfort for everyday wear, and I didn't want to wear a tank top under it because it doesn't seem like the right type of dress for an undershirt. But it's otherwise a nice fit. In the summer or early fall, I'd consider renting again for a special occasion or event.

Loved the fit after sizing up

I initially rented this in a medium and didn't wear it because it was tight and unflattering across my back. After going up a size, the fit was perfect and I loved it the top.
