Great fit and versatile
I didn’t think I would like these when I took them out of the bag, because the material kind appears like sweatpants (?), but I actually loved them once I put them on. The material is thick and feels quality. They looked dressier than the material suggests, but I do think these are a sneakers as footwear type of pants, because heels would feel too dressy. I think the cut of these would be flattering on most body types and heights, as they’re tapered without being skinny. They fit well from top to bottom, which was nice as I often have a problem with pants either gaping at the waist, or choking me at the thighs and hips. (So, these could be a great choice for someone who often runs into that problem).

Fitted, but comfortable!
This was a great top that could be worn with many different outfits! It is short (I hesitate to say cropped, though, as you could not see my midriff with the high-waisted pants I was wearing) and fitted. I love the one shoulder look and the slit in the front was not too revealing. I liked that it was fitted, but didn’t make me feel uncomfortable. I wore a strapless bra with it (incredible, as should would think one wouldn’t be able to). It needed consistent readjusting to not shift and show the bra, but I could’ve easily solved that with fashion tape. Great rental!

Could be 5 stars for someone else!
I desperately wanted this dress to be something that it just wasn’t for me. Although the back is beautiful, it was unflattering in the front and very big around my waist. Also, with bigger breasts, I had to go braless as they do not make sticky bras or backless bras for my size. If the bodice was a little tighter, it would’ve been fine, but I felt insecure in the loose-fitting top. (I did not want to size down, as I felt the dress would be too small). I packed it for a trip, but wouldn’t have worn it if I had an alternative. This dress would fit best on someone with a “ruler” body type. As many others mentioned the straps are crazy long. When I received the dress, someone had actually sewn a dart to shorten each strap and it was STILL too long. The dress itself came closer to the ground than intended on me, but the length worked for me. The fabric wrinkled easily and creased after I sat in it. The picture shows the back of the dress which I think is the best part about it. This dress will probably be 5 stars for some, but I didn’t think it was universally flattering or a win-for for everyone.

Striking with a high slit
This skirt was fun and sexy! (FYI, It is more of a wrap than a skirt, as one reviewer said). A lot of people didn’t like the exposure that came from the wrap/high slit, but I felt totally fine. There’s a panel that does a fairly decent job covering you even when you move your legs, as you can see in the photo. That said, I felt more comfortable sitting when I had a jacket over my lap, otherwise I had to sit with my legs tightly clamped together. I wore it with a fitted bodysuit and think it helped me feel more “covered” than I would have in just underwear. I loved this and totally recommend this for a date night or party, but it’s definitely not a work skirt. (I actually wore this outfit to fly and it was super comfortable). It is also definitely not for everyone; if you are even moderately modest, it’s probably best to skip this one.

Best for tall girlies
I almost didn’t wear it, but I’m glad I did. I felt initially felt fully swallowed up by the fabric in this dress (but didn’t want to try a size down). I ended up wearing it with heels even though I didn’t “need” to. It helped me feel like I was better standing up to the dress. I think this dress would be an AMAZING style for taller women; the sleeves and torso were definitely too big on me. I got lots of compliments, including one from an older lady who described it as “classy.” I think that was my favorite compliment of the day. I definitely think it looked better in person than in photograph.

Versatile and fun
This dress was super cute, comfortable, and easy to style (though in the picture, it also can stand on its own without all that ). I was a little uncomfortable without a bra, and other large-chested ladies may feel that way too, so I purchased a strapless bra and it did solve the problem. I was able to tighten the straps to pull the dress up high enough to cover the bra completely. Make sure you select the size that is right for you; the dress is comfortable, loose on the bottom, and adjustable in the straps, but the fabric is structured and there is no give in the torso/zipper area.

Cute and comfy
I LOVED these pants. They were cute and comfortable. They are on the larger side, but not so large I’d size down. I still wore my regular size. In terms of length, they’re much shorter than most of the other pants I’ve rented which is great for me. I did still have to wear heels, but I wasn’t tripping over myself. I wore these to work and got a ton of compliments. I like them because they’re not just a total, basic black pants, but the button detail makes them a little more interesting. They’d be super cute for a date night or a party too.

Wanted to love it
I really wanted to love this, but I just didn’t feel it was flattering to my body. The shirt wasn’t super fitted on my torso, though looking at photos I can see it’s not designed to be. I like to tuck my shirts and I found that this one wasn’t long enough to tuck or short enough to wear untucked. It was cute, and it seems like lots of other people like it, but it just wasn’t for me.

Great, but not perfect (also, you can’t see the pinstripes)
I wore the top and bottom as a set to a formal wedding and got lots of compliments. (I had actually intended to wear it to work also and I think it would’ve been perfect for that too). It was comfortable and fit loose as intended. The items fit like most other size 4 things I wear. I do wish both the top and bottom were a little more tailored. The armholes were just low enough that you could see the top of my bra peaking out, so if you can go bra less I recommend it. (Also, FYI, you can’t see the pinstripes). Those small things aside, the set is chic and super comfortable for how nice it looks.

Gorgeous, quality, compliment-magnets (and veryyyy long)
These pants a beautiful and amazing quality. My only regret in renting them is that I can’t buy them because I simply cannot justify pants that cost over $400. I got a ton of compliments on these pants (which I wore with a white top). I felt glam and professional with being stuffy. They are super comfortable. A few people suggested they run large, but that is how they are meant to fit and I found them to be TTS. It should be noted that they are SUPER long. I’m about 5’3” and even wearing boots with 2-3 inch heels I spent most of the day worrying about catching the pants underneath my heel. (And since these were not my pants to mess up, it was a great deal of stress). I think anyone shorter than I would have a hard time making these work, as well as anyone my height (or even a little taller) who doesn’t wear heels.

Pretty cute, big shoulders pads
The blazer is cute and looks good open or buttoned. The fabric was more textured than I would’ve thought from the photos, but not in a bad way. The shoulder pads are pretty big and not removable just as a heads up.

Loved them so much that I bought them!
I went out of my comfort zone with this style of pant, but as soon as I put them on I loved them. I was surprised at how comfy they were. I wore them to work and I got compliments all day from colleagues and my high school students. I usually wear a 4 in dress pants, but I got these in a 2 based on others’ suggestions that they run a little large and I found that to be true, as the 2 fit well. Love ‘em!
