Not that you can tell by the look on my face in the pic (pinball is serious business you know), but this dress was a joy to wear. It's structured but comfortable, and the shine on the scalloped hems gives it a little spunk while still being classic. It runs larger than the brand's other dresses I've rented, which I think run small. I rented a 40 because it was available, and while a 38 would've probably fit better, the 40 was in no way too large to wear. It would probably have found a permanent home in my closet if I could've brought myself to spend an indecent amount on one adorable LBD.

My husband and I renewed our vows in Las Vegas, and this dress is what I wore out on the town afterwards. It's practically perfect in every way. It's true to size, leaning to slightly big. I almost always wear a 0, maybe a 2, and the XS fit just about perfect. I could've used a little more hips/butt to fill it out, but still it wasn't too big on me. You can kind of arrange the shoulders anywhere you like - one up, one down, both up, both down - it seemed pretty flexible. It was nice and snug (like this brand is) without being too snug or needing shape wear and completely opaque. It's modern and maybe a little sci-fi - I feel like Princess Leia or Padme Amidala would have this dress in their closet. I got endless compliments on it all night long, and it made me feel bad ass and powerful. My only quibble with the dress was that it liked to ride up when I was walking. Not in a "omg, you can see my underpants" sort of way, just enough to be slightly annoying. I think the issue was caused by my aforementioned lack of butt, so your results may vary. It wouldn't stop me from renting this dress again though - it was amazing.

I wasn't sure I'd end up liking this dress - neither orange nor ruffles are usually my thing - but oh, was this dress ever perfection. The ruffles didn't overwhelm me (at 5'3" that can be a problem) and the orange/papaya color was vibrant, but not obnoxiously bright. The fit was true to size - I am usually a 0, and the 0 fit just right, but with no room to spare. The dress has no stretch and is fitted through the rib cage and waist. The arms were slightly constricting, but not as bad as some cold shoulder dresses I've worn. There is a good sized slit in the front, which made it easy to walk in, but when you sit, it can climb a bit high if you're not paying attention. I didn't wear a bra with this, but it's definitely low-cut strapless bra friendly. The material is so silky and soft and light. It was comfortable and made me feel like I was floating along as I walked. I wore it to a show in Vegas and got compliments and stares from strangers all night. This dress was designed to make the wearer look and feel beautiful. One note for anyone renting this dress - tying the back can be a bit difficult to do yourself. I did manage, but it would be easier with a friend. Also, since the material is so silky, the tie came undone a couple times. It's not structural, so you won't be at risk for a wardrobe malfunction, and it stayed fine once I asked my husband to double knot it for me.

I’m no stranger to sequins, but the shine of this jacket is on another level. This thing basically hangs in your closet and yells at you to take it out to celebrate post haste. It wants to give you a night to that you can still tell stories about ten years from now. And no, jackets don’t ordinarily talk to me, but one with this much personality probably could. Alas, the only size that was available when I ordered on Unlimited was a size too big, and the jacket already has a roomier, bomber-type cut. I’ll definitely be trying it again in a smaller size, but I think it might still be boxier than I’d prefer. I will, however, wear it anyway. My only issue with this wearable party? NO POCKETS. Why. Just why. I mean, I guess you can’t ask a jacket this fun to be practical, but dang, Sparkles, give me somewhere to put my phone so I can get us an Uber at the end of the night...

The back pockets (which had snaps!) gave my butt a cuter shape and I could fit my entire giant phone in the front pockets ( YES REALLY) - what more does anyone need from jeans??? They looked tiny when I pulled them out of the bag, but they fit perfectly - lots of stretch and a skinny silhouette. True to size - my waist measures 25", and I wore the 25. They are a more of a cropped/ankle length, but that was perfect for me at 5'3". They seemed to run a little snug at the upper thigh (for reference mine are 19.5-20"), but not so much that it bothered me. They are more of a washed/faded black than a deep, dark black (mine still had the tags on, so I know that's how they were made to look), which I liked because it made the celestial pattern less stark and more wearable for someone who isn't a 20-something. I will definitely rent them again!

My husband chose this dress out of the options I presented to him for a benefit dinner we were going to, and now I think I should let him pick all my dresses from now on! It is deceptively sexy, despite its high neck and long-ish hemline. I couldn't walk across the room without multiple strangers stopping me to compliment me or ask me where I'd gotten it, was it vintage, which designer it was - it was peak RTR experience, let me tell you. I wore a sticky bra with it, but that wasn't strictly necessary. I think it ran slightly big on me, but not so much that it made it look too big on. I wish I'd gotten a better picture of it and a better picture of the back (omg, THE BACK), but you'll just have to trust me here - it's gorgeous.

I didn't get a chance to wear this out, as it arrived in my unlimited shipment after the event I was thinking of wearing to. Still, when I tried it on, it was incredibly flattering and almost seemed to be lit from within it was so shiny. The bronze/rose gold color combined with the green accents would make it a perfect choice for a holiday party. My only quibble was that it ran slightly large in the top, but a strapless padded bra fixed that for me. I'd definitely rent this again. Also, I had the Alexis Bittar Infinity Wire earrings on hand, and they went very nicely with this dress!

Just stunning! It fit perfectly, except for being a little long (I'm 5'3" and was wearing 4" heels), but not so long that I was tripping/stepping on it. I felt tall and elegant... and like I was getting away with wearing my pajamas around town, because this thing is so comfortable! I didn't wear a bra, but I did use those tape "bring it up" things to make sure the girls weren't hanging too low, but even that wasn't really necessary. I wore this to the theatre , and I had no problem getting in and out of it in the bathroom at intermission either - it's got a little zipper at the neck and one at the back waist. It's gorgeous and different - just go for it!

I'm trying hard to come up with the words to describe this dress without resorting to the things people always say in these reviews - stunning, showstopper, glamorous - but this dress really *is* all of those things. The dress feels and fits like the expensive designer dress it is. Forget princess, I felt like a queen wearing this, regal and powerful. I wore it with the Eddie Borgo Pave Earpiece earrings, which complimented its modernity well. As to fit, I'm 5'3", 32D-27-34, and I wore the XSL, because the regular length was unavailable. And it is LONG. In 5" heels, I still had to use hem tape to bring it up about 4 inches, and then I was stepping on that hemmed bit all night. That was the only downside, and it was worth it for the wow factor of this gown.

I usually wear a 4 (32D-27-34), but I ordered an 8 after reading the reviews. It fit perfectly. I was concerned that the color would be sort of a blah uniform blue, but that was definitely not the case. It's not navy, but not light blue... maybe periwinkle? Both the cut and color were very flattering - especially the hot cutouts in the back! Also worth noting - I was able to wear a t-back bra with this dress which, along with the perfect fit, made this dress super comfortable. I would absolutely own this dress - it's versatile and gets tons of compliments.
