Lovely top, hard to keep the shoulders put
I ended up wearing this above my shoulders because I couldn't keep tugging it down to stay in place, but it still worked well with my outfit.

Easter Vigil Service
I loved this dress. It was not too clingy for a religious celebration, and I still felt chic. It is very lightweight and comfortable. It runs long, so I had to wear my most high-heeled shoes, which I didn't mind-- but something to consider for shorties like myself.

Easter Sunday
It was a bit too chilly to wear without the blazer, but it worked great for Easter. As always, I wish zippers were made better, but all in all, this fits true to size. The hardware to adjust the straps was also very stiff, so don't wait until the very last minute to adjust your straps or you'll be late!

Great color and pop to everyday wear
This sweater is a great weight-- not too warm and adds a lovely pop of color to everyday wear. It's versatile, so can be worn a couple of different ways while you have it. I really enjoyed this one! If I rent it again, I may size down.

Love this one!
This is such a fun basic addition to any wardrobe. The sleeves were flouncy without being over cumbersome and the neck was delicate and polished. I may just buy this eventually.

Cute top with sexy back.
The sleeves were a bit too long for me but otherwise a fun piece that could be worn in some work spaces (maybe a blazer over the open back if needed) and transition in to going out.

The material was a bit thinner than expected. Overall very comfy and a good throw-on basic.

A great everyday pop of color.
Warm but not bulky. A bit short waisted which was great for my short stature but may fit on the short side for others. Added a lovely pop to everyday wear!

Loved the material but the top fit larger than expected.
The pleats made me nervous as someone with curves but they are well tailored and hit just right right. Overall this dress is so cute but the top fit much larger than the lower half of the dress.

Day or night stunner.
I wore this with a navy blazer for work and it was perfect. The bodice is comprised of really thick material that holds everything in with the light flowy hem that is really fun and accentuates all the right stuff. Will rent again.

Comfortable and chic. The perfect go-to.
The comfort of your go-to LBD with a little bit more pizzaz. Will rent this one again. The torso hits a bit long but I have a short frame so I'm sure it's absolutely perfect on someone with a few more inches. The flounce was playful and fun against the traditional silhouette.

So comfortable, flattering and cute!
The material was super thin yet still flattering. I can't wait to rent this again in the warmer weather when I don't need tights. Definitely going to be a repeat rent for me.

Delicate but makes a splash!
Overall, I loved this dress and wore it twice even though I felt the shoulders and chest fit a bit tightly. I wore it once with the tie in a bow and a crew neck sweater over top that created a cute flare of the blouse at the wrists of the sweater. I also work this as is but tucked the ties in which really showed off what a great dress this is. Flattering and not too long on my 5'1 self though on someone much smaller the side slit may be a bit high for work without hosiery.

Great work dress, best for someone over 5'1
The color and structure of the dress were fantastic. However, as a shorter person with curves, the skirt part fit great if not slightly tight but the top was baggy. After a day of meetings there were a fair amount of wrinkles as well. Cute dress but didn't fit great.

Didn't end up wearing this
The top fit perfectly and I loved it however the bottom was very tight and made it inappropriate to wear to work which is why I rented it. Not the right cut for my hourglass shape but I wish it would have been. The top was so cute!

Cute but plainer in person.
Loved the thick material. The mesh areas were barely different from the rest of the bodice though and lost a bit of their effect in person.

Great fall wedding attire
Ended up ditching the bra which still worked with the dress even with a D cup. Had so many compliments and was comfortable and warm during a cool Chicago day/evening of wedding festivities. Highly recommend.

Wore to Christmas Midnight Mass, probably flashed someone accidentally.
The faux wrap is pretty deep at the top and fits much looser than the bottom half of the dress so expect to show a little more cleavage that expected. Probably should have worn something underneath but the lines would have definitely shown at the hips as that part of the dress was pretty unforgiving.

Love this coat!
Great fit. Perfect fun details to jazz it up for over a dress but still works for everyday with jeans and heels. Love the detail. Lighter-weight so maybe not great if walking a long way to commute in very cold weather. Overall love this though!

Sent back before wearing
I needed to swap out a style last minute so this is the piece that went back before wearing. I'm a pretty short torso'd person and this was still incredibly short. The sleeves were perfect though.

Great statement earrings!
For larger earrings I didn't feel as though they weighted down my ears too much. For statement earrings, I also felt they were pretty neutral and could have gone with multiple outfits I had during the rental period.

This was a knockout dress that was also comfy.
The dress was stretchy and comfortable with good built-in support for large bust sizes. The dress also allowed for a normal bra to be worn underneath, just with the straps pushed to the side. The only issue with the dress is that I had to go a size larger for the length. At 5'1" I have never had a dress fit too short. I could barely wear any heel with the size that fit best so had to go up one size and still wear a shorter heel so that the dress fell in the right spot. Overall, I received compliments all night and feel like this really accentuated my curves in the right way. I'd rent it again.
