Huge
This dress is gorgeous - I love the material and details. But I could fit two of me in it. I’m between a 10/12 but arms are on the thicker side so I tend to go larger when there’s no stretch in the fabric. The arms fit just fine but I could fit two of me in the body of the dress. This one is going back with the tags on.

It's nice to have an office appropriate work dress in rotation! The fit is flattering and can be dressed up with a blazer and jewelry or worn plain on its own.

Runs small - it's tight and short. The embellishment is nice but otherwise it's a simple cotton tank.

Just ok
I wanted to love this, but it was just OK. The sleeves were really puffy and it wasn't as fitted as I wanted.

Loved this so much. The silk skirt shows water instantly and it stains easily. But keep it dry and it is stunning.

Gorgeous piece. Rented for work but it was a bit formal, especially with the metallic threading and shoulder pads. More for a holiday party or black tie event where warmth and coverage is needed.

Fab white pants, 4.6 stars ⭐️
The upshot is these are comfortable, flattering, and TTS white pants that are great for work or an elevated daytime look even if somewhat difficult to put on at first. They are midweight cotton (not denim) but not fully see through, so you will want skin-toned undergarments. They wrinkle slightly but have enough structure to not be a wrinkled mess after 15min of wearing. The odd parts: the buckles are a little noisy out of the bag, but they do not rattle once on. Also, while there is a traditional zipper, there are no buttons. Instead, there are two “flaps” that overlap and attach to the buckles over each hip bone. I’ve never worn pants with a learning curve, and going to the bathroom takes a beat, but once fastened it’s a cute and different look. The length is slightly long — I’m 5’9” and needed to wear a wedge as the hem would drag with flats. I’d give these 4.6 stars but am rounding up to 5.

Versatile and flattering, consider sizing down
The fabric on these pants is structured and gives an elevated look without being restrictive. If between sizes, size down. I’m normally a 12 in pants due to some belly and thigh fluff and had rented this style previously in a 12 in a different pattern and it was too much fabric. Rented the 10 this time and they are perfect. Looks best with a navy or olive top. I wore this casually with white sneakers while on vacation and then dressed up for dinner with strappy heels and a nicer navy top. I’m 5’9” and the length was great. Was tempted to buy!

Cute but itchy
This is a cute top that fits well, and I love the slight poof to the shoulder detailing. However, the stitching underneath the shoulder detail is SO ITCHY. Unbearably so. Once I realized a t-shirt underneath could help, I wore this top to Thanksgiving dinner, to work (it's great for video calls), and out for a date night. Only rent if you have a suitable undershirt/t-shirt to wear (a tank will not work).

Amazing dress
I loved this dress - it fit well and seems flexible enough that it would work for those sizing up or down. Super comfortable and glamorous. Wore it to a fundraiser, for family photos, to work, and out to dinner and received many compliments. I already regret not buying it! Note there is a high slit on the side that is high enough that you can't wear spanx with the bike shorts style.

Too short for me to wear, even with tights. Granted, I'm 43 so maybe it works for the younger crowd. Otherwise, it's cute. Didn't wear it though.

Gorgeous fall dress, but runs large. I'm usually between and 10 & 12, I wore the 10, but could have easily worn an 8. Wore this to work, to the symphony, out to dinner. It's very versatile.

Did not wear this as I couldn’t get past the delta flight attendant look. I wanted to love it because the material is splendid and the fit was great…and I love purple. But it didn’t work.

Great silk shirt in a classy print. The buttons cause gaping and make it look odd tucked in. Wore once with black leggings untucked, and preferred that look to black trousers or jeans.
