Picture Perfect
I was lucky enough to be the first person to wear this sweater (tags were still on it) and I totally understand the Polo Bear hype now! This sweater fit perfectly, was soooo soft, and so warm. It looked great in the photos I took during my birthday trip to London. I’m keeping it another month for sure!

Body but great for the holidays
This size was a little big and boxy on me but it was still a staple for my wardrobe all holiday season. Looked great with turtlenecks.

So good for layering
I've rented before and this dress is perfect for layering with a turtleneck! It's easy to dress up or down or accessorize.

Made it work for work
This dress was shorter than I would normally prefer for a work setting, but it also ran a little large so I was able to make it work, especially since the waist could be cinched. Pattern is so cute, but as others have pointed out, the waist band is extremely confusing to tie right. I would still rent again since finding a cute work dress that is warm weather friendly is always a struggle for me.

It has pockets!!!
I wore this dress for multiple work events and conferences this summer, and it was such a hit every time. Gorgeous, rich color, comfortable, and nice coverage without feeling hot. Larger chested friends beware: I couldn’t wear it with a bra since all of my bras were always showing out of the side, but for me, the dress felt supportive enough with where the stitching was that I didn’t need it. That might not be the case for everyone though.

Gorgeous color, great if you like a drop waist
I rent this Derek Lam dress style every time there's a new color available because I love it so much. If you do the same, just know this dress has a drop waist that the others don't have. The material is nicer than some of the others (more silky, less stiff), it still has pockets, and the color is GORGEOUS. Drop waist is unfortunately not the most flattering on my short-waist and curvy frame, so I likely won't rent this version of the dress again.

Cute two piece set!
I loved the cut, color, and shimmer of this set! It was easy to dress up or down. While the cut is comfortable, if you have texture issues, just know the fabric can be itchy. The skirt is also SLIGHTLY long on my short frame, but average height folks wouldn't even notice.

A perfect breezy spring/summertime office look! The arms were a tad tight for me (but I have huge upper arms), but otherwise the fit was great and I felt adorable all day.

Repeat rental
Wore previously for a trip to Italy and rented again this year. I've lost weight so the top was a little big this time and the straps kept falling no matter how much I adjusted them, but the dress is still such a fun pattern and so comfy I'll prob rent again again again!

Va va voom
I rented this dress as a backup for an event, but when I was sad that it looked so good I wished I had something to wear it to, my husband planned the most romantic date ever (probably because it made my butt look UNREAL lol). Somehow I found another occasion to wear it while I rented it, layered under another shirt and a belt (so it just looked like a skirt) for a burlesque show. The dress is sheer (tho nude bra and shapewear were enough coverage for me underneath). Super comfortable, sexy, and fun. Pictures don't do it justice - the material looks nicer in person than it comes across in photos.

If I like it, I'll get it in every color!
I will get this Derek lam dress in every single color and love all of them. Comfortable, flattering, colorful, fun, AND POCKETS! I didn't get to wear this one out because I ordered it hoping for warm spring weather but only have gotten cold wet spring weather. I'll rent again later this season and summer. I ordered the longer version of this dress in my next shipment since it'll hopefully be more transitional.

Not flattering
This dress was so cute on top and on my butt, but the tightness and the pattern gave the illusion of a pregnant belly, so I never wore it :(

Arf you kidding? So cute!
So cute! I love the dogs, and it was so easy to throw this on with jeans and look chic. One star off because the material absorbs smell incredibly easily, so I couldn't wear it as much as I wanted because it started to smell way quicker than most of my clothes.

I've been dying to try a selkie dress forever, and I was so pleased to see this one in stock in my size! I was scared it would hug my hips wrong but it ended up being so flattering AND comfortable! I wore it to a monthly salon-style party with a vintage-vibe dress code :)

Belt helped fix a too-big rental
I’ve worn this dress for a conference twice. I usually wear a 16, but I find this brand runs small. I previously rented the 18 and thought it was nice but kinda short, so I tried the 20 this time, but it was definitely too big. The belt helped, but the dress has ruching along the curve of the back and looks kinda weird if it’s not fitted right.

Perfect day to night dress!
I styled this dress with a black shirt and belt over it for the daytime look at a conference, but I was able to take that off and let the dress shine as-is for an evening out at a nice restaurant. I’ve rented before and would rent again. Such a fun color and pattern and a flattering dress!

Cute but short
If this was an inch or two longer it’d not only be a 5-star but also an instant purchase. It’s sleek and sexy but also simple enough that it could be styled different ways. If it was slightly longer I wouldn’t have worn the leggings, but I was a little nervous about coverage since I was going to a conference.

I got lots of compliments on the skirt, especially how fun the pattern is! Will definitely wear again. I liked the red sweater and heels with it for hosting a presentation and a happy hour, but I want to rent it again soon and wear with white sneakers and a tee for a more casual look too

Fun for Business School
This look made me feel like Fran Fine from the Nanny, but business appropriate. It's got really fun embellishments, a beautiful pattern, and a sexy (but not too sexy) fit. My thighs kept the slit open a little wider than I would have liked but that's more a me issue than a fit issue. One of my favorite items yet.

First day of school
Wore this for my first day of grad school and felt so hip. I sized up two sizes to fit over my butt and it was still extremely tight on my hips and pretty huge on the top. The proportions of the dress seem true to size, I'm just much smaller on top. I'm not sure if I'd get it again since it was still a bit uncomfortably snug on bottom, but I still felt really cool while wearing it.

Orientation dress - big success!
I wore this for grad school orientation in crazy hot weather and felt so comfortable. One star off coz the straps were WAY TOO LONG and I had to pin them back, but if i were to buy the dress it'd be an easy alteration. I really loved it and got tons of compliments!

Larger sizes was made for someone with much different proportions than my curves
Didn't wear it. I felt like a sausage in the dress and while I loved the pattern and it fit, it just wasn't flattering on my extreme hourglass figure.

The dress is fine but I think would look better on a different body shape than very short and very curvy. I didn't end up wearing it (went with the similar-colored Christian Siriano dress instead)
