Too cropped, if you have normal sized torso will be too short
Too cropped to wear with jeans if you have normal torso, there will be a gap

I want to live in these pants!
Never got so many compliments on a pair of pants. They are comfortable, flattering, and very pretty! I wore them with flats, heels, and booties and they looked great with all of them. Stretch waistband makes them even more comfortable.

Love the dress, was too big should have done 2.
I would say it fits TTS, should have ordered the 2 but the 4 fit.
Black Floral Jacquard Gown

Size Worn: NONE

Not my favorite
Would wear as a back up if needed. Fabric is thick and it fits well on top, no bra needed. Don't love the pattern or color.
Red Abstract Floral Dress
ML Monique Lhuillier
Size Worn: 2R
Usual Size: 4

Looks very cheap and simple
I would only recommend if you are stuck for what to wear. The cut out slit looks very cheap and odd. Size for fine, can't wear a bra so wrap dress tight.
Georgia Maxi
Hutch
Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 120lbs
Bust: 34B
Decent December wedding option
Comfortable and flattering, can wear strapless bra easily. Fit a little large and maybe could have sized down but if I wore again likely wouldn't. Comes across very Christmas.
Green Birdie Gown
Hutch
Size Worn: 2R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 120lbs
Bust: 34B
Way too large in chest
Could not wear as top was so big it looked ridiculous
Black Crinkle High-Low Gown
Cynthia Rowley
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 120lbs
Bust: 34B
Simple and conservative wedding look
Runs small so size up. Fabric is heavy so not for a hot wedding. Fabric will show wrinkles. More orange red and red red.
Alesi Dress
Roksanda
Size Worn: 8R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 120lbs
Bust: 34B
Would rent again for wedding!
No wiggle room so I would size up to a 4 next time. Can't wear a bra but it's fine. Easy to raise arms, dress is short enough for kitten heels and has a slit to the knee. Really liked!
Evita Maxi
AMUR
Size Worn: 2R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 120lbs
Bust: 34B
Nice updated black class for fall or winter wedding.
4R some wiggle room, strapless bra needed. Tight to lift arms but not impossible. Sheer at waist, hits above ankle. Would wear to fall or winter wedding. Lays flat against stomach.
Sheer Side Lace Dress
ML Monique Lhuillier
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 120lbs
Bust: 34B
Wide shoulders, slit could be an issue.
Like don’t love, looks wide on shoulders, could wrinkle if you sat a while, some arm limit to raise. Some wiggle room in body. Lays flat against stomach, slit could be issue.
Black Cut Out Gown
ML Monique Lhuillier
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 120lbs
Bust: 34B
Solid wedding option, slightly snug in wasit
Comfortable but snug, if I wear again may size up to give more room at waist where it is tight as zipper. Unable to wear a bra. Felt like I had to have good posture to not show stomach or let too slip too much, but not overly worried. Length fine with 2-4 inch heels.
Multi Flower Print Maxi

Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"

Fits TTS for snug dress
Rented for wedding, fits snug but that's the design. Would rent again. Note liner only goes mid thigh.
Peony Dress
CATHERINE DEANE
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 125lbs
Bust: 34B
Size up due to small liner
While the dress looks lose and float, the liner of the dress is very tight and short, especially in waist. Exterior of dress runs large, liner runs very small. I could have worn for a short time, like a cocktail hour, but to wear for longer in the future I'll size up.
Hansen Maxi
Three Floor
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 125lbs
Bust: 34B
Cute, comfortable, cropped
Good quality, nice button details on shoulder. Sweater hits right where high waisted jeans hit at waist. Arms are an inch or two cropped too.
Buttoned Shoulders Sweater
sita murt
Size Worn: 36
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 125lbs
Bust: 34B
Beautiful dress that could work for a variety of events
The arms fits perfectly but do have zippers on the wrist if too snug. Chest was slightly large for me but not too much of an issue. Would like be hot to wear in warm climate but good for seasonal transition dress for day to night. Would rent again.
Floral Satin Dress
Jason Wu
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 125lbs
Bust: 34B
Way too large
Cute simple dress, would have been comfortable had it not been so large. I don't mind lose or a little oversized typically but even a belt couldn't get this dress to be undercut or ok. Would consider to rent again a size down for casual work.
Cloud Dot Dress

Super fun and flattering!
I rented for a costume party but actually loved it so much I wish I kept it for events in the future! Sits high on the waist and comes right below the knees.

Flattering cut, fun pattern, comfortable
I love this dress because it was able to go from work to a wedding welcome party without changing. The fit is comfortable and flattering. Only complaint is the tie in front wouldn't stay out so my husband tied it in the back to get it out of the way.

Upgraded work dress
Extremely comfortable dress for the office, cute enough for outside work as well. I did put a camisole under the dress for my modest work environment. Dress has nice stretch to it.
Long Puff Sleeve Surplice Dress
Slate & Willow
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"

Great day to night dress
Wore this to work because the cap sleeves and longer length made it very work appropriate. Wore a tank top underneath as top was slightly sheer and too low of a but in front for the office. Would rent again.
Verity Floral Dress

Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 6"

Comfortable casual work dress
Rented this to wear to work on a cold winter day. It was very comfortable as the fabric is very stretchy. It is a little fitted and I did have the issue that it static clung to my tights.

Runs Small!
I did not wear as it was too tight to wear in my corporate office environment, likely should have gotten the medium.

Christmas Eve Dress
I liked that the length and cap sleeve made it appropriate for church on Christmas Eve. Was very comfortable to wear. Note I am usually between a 2 and a 4 and the 4 fit well without being too big. Needed a strapless bra.

Sheer & Short
Very cute dress but it requires a slip (which I hadn't packed) and the favor around the shoulders is a bit snug so when you raise your arms the dress rises significantly.

Fun black tie dress
Rented this for a March wedding, received many compliments. The floral pattern was great for the seasonal transition in March. Wore a backless bra, was slightly roomy in chest. The 2R allowed me to wear 3 in heels with the back just skimming the floor.

Great day to night work dress
I love this dress for work or for a date night, very comfortable. Slightly too short to wear with heels for work.

I loved the color and look of this dress, but does run small and limits your movements.

Greatest number of compliments, ever!
This dress is simple but glamorous! I had 10-15 strangers come up to me at the wedding saying how much they loved this dress. It it fitted at the top, goes out nicely at the waist, and has the slightest train in back. Was great with 3 inch heels.
