Not for me
I don't think I have a tough body to size clothes-wise but these were such a miss to me. Didn't sit well on the waist or hips or do anything to accentuate the legs or glutes. I would never wear again

Best pants
Third time I've rented these pants. I'm usually a true size 4. First time I rented a 4, then a 2, then a 0. I'm probably somewhere between a 2 and a 0 in this pant but there's stretch in the waist and I think they run large.

Wore this so many times, had mixed feelings about sending it back. Cut is super flattering but warning it's cropped - works great with a high waisted skirt or pant. loved the sleeve details.

Amazing dress, such a stunner. Both my husband and my friends husband commented what an awesome dress it is. Material is excellent, has perfect amount of stretch in the right areas. I never wore it with the cutouts in the back but imagine that would have looked great too.

nice sweater but put your makeup on after the sweater and don't wear it on a day you have to change/ go to the gym. The neck is so snug that you can't get your head through it without dragging makeup

fun dress
love the neck line and the peep chest but still warm for winter with the thicker material and the long sleeves. Dress wasn't really my style and I wish the sleeves fit a little more snug (just a touch loose) but it was fun to wear out to dinner one night

Incredible top...a real statement piece
Obsessed with this shirt and received so many compliments, it's a super super flattering cut and so easy to wear! I wore it with black shorts and slides and also with ripped jeans and a nude heel to an event. I wore without a bra. It comes pretty low in the back so you could wear something that pasted on in the front but I don't think you could wear a strapless bra with it. The elastic at the top of the sleeves is snug so it holds it right in place, the shirt does not slide around or need to be tugged at all while being worn, same with the elastic that holds The shirt up – very snug and doesn't need to be fussed with. Was sad to send it back but it's such a statement piece can't really wear it all the time :) would definitely rent again

Stunner
This dress is a dream, it's one of my favorite things I've ever worn, hands down. This wedding was a very well dressed crowd and this dress did not disappoint, everyone was coming up to me asking me about it. I'm 5'4" and with a 3 inch heel the length was absolutely perfect. Great for moving around and dancing. I didn't need to wear a bra and this dress fit like a glove (it was really snug and I needed help with the clasp) I want to say I should have gone with the 4 but I don't think the fit would have been as flattering so I think if you're either a 2 or a 4, probably size down.

Missile of a bag
This bag is awesome, I didn't want to send it back. Rented for everyday use through the fall and into the holiday season. It literally elevates every single outfit and goes with everything. It comfortably accommodates all the basics and then some, plus loved the two internal side pockets where I kept things that I need to get to more frequently and with more ease. LOVE love love this bag.

The perfect versatile shirt
I LOVE this shirt. Wore it to a baby shower with skinny jeans and also wore to work tucked into a black pencil skirt with black booties. Looked great both ways, well made, comfortable, nice fit. Will definitely be renting again.

great texture and fun
this dress had a lot of potential. Based on the reviews, I sized up because I'm 5'4" and 120, typically hover right around a size 2/4 but most times the reviews encourage to size up, I always need to or it won't event zip up over my rib cage for some of these higher end, european designers. So went with a 38. It was still a fun outfit but it certainly did not "fit like a glove" and I had to belt it and wear a padded bra- it did nothing for my figure because I was swimming in the extra fabric. If I rented again I would definitely go down a size. It was fine for a work event but if it had been for a formal affair or a wedding or a night out, I'd have not worn it.

This dress fit beautifully. It is subtly sexy and perfect for many occasions. I wore to a bat mitzvah ceremony and a presidential reception for work. You don't need to show skin to feel gorgeous in this dress! Would definitely rent again

I carried this bag for June and most of July. It transitioned from work to play to vacation with ease. The color is stunning- it makes every outfit special and went with much more of my wardrobe than I would have guessed. Great size- fits all the basics and then some and has great structure

Amazing print
This print is a little busier than I would usually go for but I love it. The dress was really comfortable and sits at the natural waist. Loved the slit, made it so playful. Wore out to dinner with a girlfriend and would love to wear it again.

great color
I loved this dress but I think I needed a 4. it zipped up but it was so tight over my bust that it was flattening me down and pushing it out in weird areas. There was also no chance that I could have worn a bra. The length was great and it was a very pretty dress, would look great with a tan or nude delicate sandal or even the right wedge. I wore with flats but I think a heel would have punched it up.

loved it but wasn't able to wear
I liked this dress a lot, I was going to wear it to a work event. After reading the reviews I ordered a 4 instead of a 2 but it wouldn't even zip over my rib cage. I am never a 6 but it was so snug I wonder if that even would have worked… The other issue is that the length and fit everywhere else on the 4 was perfect so I wonder if I went up another size or two if I would just end up compromising the fit elsewhere i.e. it would be too long and way too much fabric elsewhere. Nice structure and well made though.

bright, fun and flattering
I loved this romper! I wore it out to dinner with friends and then to a fun bar afterwords. I received so many compliments. I was glad I ordered the small instead of an xs, it fit very comfortably through the bust and waist and I loved the tie to give the illusion of a cinched waist. It is short and flirty but very appropriate, I would rent again in an instant. The color is just gorgeous and the silk is so comfortable. I paired it with nude peep toe caged booties, a simple necklace and pearl drop earrings.

Lovely dress
This dress might have been a touch overwhelming for my small frame. Very pretty dress and I received lots of compliments but I think I'm better off sticking to things a bit more form fitting as I think this dress would have looked spectacular on a smaller gal.

gorgeous
this dress is beautiful and so easy to wear, I received so many compliments. I wore it over memorial day weekend to a party. The only problem is that even though I rented the regular length, it was very long for my frame so I had to wear 5 inch platform sandals instead of just wearing flats as I would have preferred. Therefore, if I would not rent for a casual occasion again but rather for something more formal where I would prefer to wear heels.

fits like a glove
I loved wearing this dress. I wore it to a formal dinner gala for work. I loved the cutouts, it made the dress interesting but on my frame they were very appropriate. This dress really holds everything in, the lines are very sleek. It's an interesting length, a nice compromise from wearing a floor length gown but more formal than a cocktail length dress. I would rent this again for sure. Perhaps plan to put it on before hair/makeup/ deodorant etc. because the zipper is very shot which makes it slightly challenging to put on without ruining hair and makeup.

gorgeous.
this dress is gorgeous! It moves so beautifully. It was a little bit more fabric through the midsection than how it seems to fall on the model but I would rent again in a heartbeat, I felt so sheik in this dress. I wore 3 1/2 inch heels because the back in quite long on my frame, I'm 5'4" so if you are renting it and are in this height range I would plan to wear a decent sized heel.

classy dress, moves really nicely
I loved the look of this dress on the model and the idea of it, the sizing is just really tricky. Since I rented it through unlimited, I couldn't get a backup size so I sized up. I'm usually a 2 or a 4 so I went with a 4 when I should have gone with a 6. I literally did not think it was going to zip up over my rib cage, it was SO tight. Once it's zipped it didn't really matter and I did receive a number of compliments on it but if I rented again I would definitely go with a 6.

Fits like a glove
I liked this dress a lot. Since I am much shorter than the model, I figured it would sit longer on me and it didn't which was fine because apart from showing some leg it's pretty modest. I usually wear a size 2 and I went with a 4 but the size 2 could be vanity sizing in some brands so that always makes it tough to know your true size

unlimited rental
I rented this bag because the other bag I really wanted that showed up in my unlimited queue as being available said unavailable when I clicked on it... The bag is sharp, I love the color and the quality of the leather, it's very supple. My complaint is similar to the other reviewers in that this bag has NO structure, it is very slouchy and falls flat unless you are holding it or carrying it.

Beautiful wedding at an incredible venue!
This was a very pretty dress, and it photographed nicely, but it didn't play up my assets well. I don't have much for curves, and it did nothing to create any, and it also didn't make me look as slender as something with a more interesting cut might have.

Love this dress!
I rented this dress for a daytime wedding in Newport and I can't say enough good things about it! It fit like a glove, was so comfortable, flattering, and photographed great. The only strange thing was that there was virtually no difference in the two sizes that I ordered- I tend to fluxuate quite a bit depending on the brand so I ordered a 2 and a 4, and there was virtually NO difference in the sizes so I went with the 2. It was so easy to do RTR, I've already placed another order for a wedding in a couple weeks!
