Note the shoulder pouf
Cute blouse that could double as a suggestion of a cover up for something sleeveless. This was well made, you could tell it was high quality. Alas, I’m not personally a fan of any sort of shoulder “pouf” so didn’t wear it, but I support others doing so! (I didn’t notice this detail in photos.)

Size down, they stretch out
I’ve rented these a couple times, I love the look but after a few hours they begin to look a bit too slouchy.

Size up unless you have smaller than average arms
Beautiful blouse but if you have even average biceps, this will be tight at best- size Up! I usually wear a sm/med or 6/8 in tops. I got an 8 and could not even squeeze my upper arms in. I do lift, but would not consider my biceps large.

Short rise, low cut
The low cut part actually would’ve worked fine, but the short rise + my long torso was a combo that didn’t make the cut to wear out. It’s otherwise a fun little number. (I’m 5’5”, 140ish pounds for reference)

Fruity fun
The material on this dress feels like a buttery hug, and is easy on the moves. It comes with a thin lining, overall this would be a great dress for hot weather , minus any sort of backlighting. The color and print are oh so fun, but the pair of cherries fell “just so” on my bum, I elected to not wear because I didn’t want that much attention in the end.

Springtime outdoor wedding gem
This dress wants you to take it to a garden party or outdoor wedding. Flowery and flowy, it’s a great companion for the outdoor venue all the way to the dance floor. There’s even room up top for your 2 besties, at least for most.

Devil's in the side seam detail
The fabric, print, and fit were all on point, EXCEPT for the weird bulge along the side zipper. I did not wear it because of that, my face went sad:(

Easy splash of extra style
I was able to wear with just pasties, the material has small “ribbed” texture. It was almost a tad too big, I wouldn’t have gone dancing without some fashion tape. The material feels nice as well. I wore this appx 4 times to different outings

It’s a great coat that can be worn with jeans or a black dressy jumper, anything in between. Small fits me better but was not in stock (I’m 5’ 5” and 140 )

Classy and comfy
I had to wear an 8R because it was the only size available. A 6 probably would have been a better fit but overall the 8 worked fine. No special undergarments needed, and the material is fairly thick with the beading/sequins. I'm 5'5" and had on 3" heels. I was very comfortable all night in this dress.

This was perfect for an outdoor fall wedding. Nice ruching and stretchy fabric make this a dress you can dine or dance in. Could be suitable for regular daytime event as well, easy to match for sweaters, etc.

Not enough fashion tape in the country….
…to close the cavernous side boob gap left hanging around my “athletic” upper half. But the colors on this beauty were worth a shot. It’s a stunner, just not for me. I want able to wear it.

Great holiday party jumper
Flattering, thick fabric, and well-made. I’m 5’5” and do not wear heels (suede kicks for me), so the leg length was a tad long, but should be fine for taller, braver, heel-wearing party goers.

Short in the rise
I really wanted to love this, and I would were it not for the creeping camel toe. I’m 5’5” and I do have a bit longer torso, I imagine taller folks may want to err on the side of sizing up. Otherwise it would’ve been super cute and well fitting.

Flattering, 40’s/50’s flair
Others said the dress looked nice. It’s a pretty forgiving dress, material is fairly thick and it wasn’t too tight, but I did size up as others recommended

You will need an assistant to zip this
I didn’t wear this, because it was a struggle to zip, not just in the “it’s too tight” way. You will need a strong wardrobe assistant.

Nice every day jeans
Not sure I loved the button fly, but the jeans were a nice step up from the day to day jeans. I’m 5’5” and these were a bit too long to look as intended and too short to look regular length.

Dress so nice I rented twice
This dress is a stunner- very flattering! I took the advice of reviews and sized up due to lining so it was very comfy. I've worn to 2 weddings, which says a lot because I hate to repeat special occasions :) I'm the end, I did t want to take my chances with something new for my first wedding post-COVID (last worn 2/29/2020.)

Size up!
I usually wear a size S or sometimes M. I reserved M and it was too small- part of the size issue has to do with length, but maybe it's intended to show midriff ? It was also quite fitted. Neat texture and design otherwise.

Easy to dress up or down. Runs large.
Eye-catching pattern, can be easily dressed up (black pencil skirt) or down (jeans- I wore both blue and black, skinny and boot cut with high heeled ankle boots). I normally wear a small top, rented size 40 and it was wearable but larger than ideal.

I'm 5'5" 135 and this was way too snug, especially around rib cage. I rarely wear large but would recommend, and fabric is good quality, belted area might be good for hiding lower abdomen;)

Great staple for most events after work
This is a comfortable, lovely, semi-sexy essential piece for outdoor concerts, casual meet up's with the ladies, basically anything that is outside of work and does not require a specific dress code. You can wear pasties, but I recommend a strappy black or burgundy yoga bra. Best with skinny jeans or fitted white pants. Add this to daily or date lineup!

Cute and unique top, just too boxy in the body
This is definitely a cute and fun top, but given the fabric is a bit stiffer and the cut is rather wide and long. It just was not flattering on me. I do not Recommend this with a skirt. Instead, pair with fitted pants or jeans

I've worn this more than any other rental
This dress works well in so many situations - brunch, date, work (with jacket), outdoor party. It's very flattering and comfortable, great for summer ANYTHING. Can be worn with strapless bra or pasties. I normally wear 6, sometimes 8. Small worked well !

Too form fitting - didn't wear
I love the material that this designer often uses, but in this case, the cut was far tighter than I'm used to. I normally wear a 6, sometimes up to 8. I rented a medium and it was quite unflattering. Recommend size up!

Unexpected compliments, wear anywhere
Well made dress that never leaves fit for guessing. Heavier material but still great for warm and outdoors. Very flattering, would've been more so perhaps if I sized down (I'm between small/medium) since the front does have some extra fabric to it. Loved the pattern and cut around the arms.

Work, date, cookout
This is an easy, lightweight dress to wear for many occasions. Great fabric and pattern, sleeves so open and comfy yet not too much. I do recommend a cami or 2sided fashion tape tho- the snap can migrate below bra middle. Also, while I could've gone smaller in the bust/waist/torso, it still felt a little too short for much movement. I'd rent again, wore several times.

Unique pattern, too baggy in the top front
This dress has a great pattern, easy to pair with several colors of shoes, scarf, coat... However, the front area of the "wrap" (partially a faux wrap - only from side) is quite baggy and open. I used a considerable amount of double sided tap to wear this. Nice length though. I normally wear 6, sometimes an 8. I think I could have sized down to a 4.
