Wore this to DEBLA 2018. Felt elegant, yet edgy. I’m shy, but felt still felt comfy with the plunge.
I’m shy, but wanted to try something a little out of my comfort zone, so I went for this deep neckline. This dress is very comfy, and it has pockets!!! I’m 5’4”, so the lace outer skirt of the dress was just above my ankles. But, the mini underneath keeps the dress feeling and looking kinda sexy and airy. I used, and recommend the gaffers tape trick to create a custom stick-on bra: https://bratag.com/boob-tape/ When done with actual gaffer’s tape (a flexible fabric tape with a gentle adhesive), it feels comfortable and doesn’t hurt when removed. I’m a 32D. The tape stayed on all night, and I felt secure. I also used a little double-sided dress tape. Wasn’t needed, but I felt more secure with it. I’d actually buy this dress (if it came in colors...and was less $$$ 😄). This, to my surprise, has been my fave rental so far 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

So flattering!
I actually didn't wear this to my event, because it was one size too large. I'm short and small (but curvy), with a short waist. The size I ordered for this dress (it was my back-up so I only ordered one size) was a bit large on me. It was a bit too long on my short torso. If I was two or three inches taller, the fit would have suited me. I would say that this dress runs 'true to size' to a bit large. But, still I LOVE it and wore it out on a date with my husband. I felt so sexy in it. It's definitely a head-turner. The print is beautiful, ornate, and modern. I was worried that the neoprene would be too constricting, but it's actually very comfortable and flattering. I think that this would be flattering on most body types. I'm not used to wearing figure-hugging clothing (I'm shy), but this dress made me want to. I would buy this!

Russian Enamel Dress

Even in a room full of costume designers, I easily had the COOLEST dress at the event.
This is one of my favorite rentals yet! I was concerned that this would run small (or be way too form-fitting). It isn't, I'd say it's true-to-size or even a bit large. I'd never worn neoprene before and wanted to give it a go. I really recommend it! It is SO comfortable and contemporary. I felt like the coolest kid at the party, and received compliments (from pro costume designers, no less!) and turned heads allll night! I'm short and small, yet curvy, so sometimes finding a flattering dress that doesn't make me look stubby is a slight challenge. This dress fits my small (and short) waist nicely, and really highlights my hourglass shape. I think that this dress would look amazing on anyone (of ANY size) with an hourglass or pear shape. This is a dress I'd actually buy.

I rented these lovely bangles to wear to Le Diner en Blanc in Los Angeles. I loved them! They are not heavy, comfortable to wear, and definitely added an elegant bit of sparkle to my outfit.

My favorite yet!
I rented this for Diner en Blanc in L.A. I assumed the dress was actually white (it is called "White Lace Whispers" after all), but it's actually off-white. It ultimately didn't matter, I still LOVE it and received lots of compliments, but just an FYI. I was a bit worried that it would be too snug, since most reviews here warn that the dress runs small. I usually wear a 4, and was surprised to find it a little looser than expected. Not so loose that it looked too large, but loose enough for me to feel comfy alllll night. This dress is lined, but still a bit sheer, so it definitely requires undergarments that are close to your skin tone. Although, you *might* be able to pull off wearing a colored bra thanks to the extra fabric around the neckline. This dress is so flattering! I think that it work look gorgeous on most body types. Now I want to purchase it!

These were very comfortable to wear. I was surprised, because they are bigger than any earrings that I normally wear. I loved them!

So sexy! I would have worn it out, but the size I ordered was too large. I rented a 6, since it was advised on here to go a size up as a precaution. But, a 4 would have been better. I am 5'4", 118lbs, and an hourglass shape. This was my backup dress, so I wore the main dress instead, since that one fit better. I would rent this again, but in a smaller size.

My first rental, and I would definitely rent this dress again. I LOVE it! It is very flattering, comfortable, sexy, and attention-getting. I wore it to a wedding, and received many compliments on it from men/women, young/old, conservative/fashionista, friends/strangers. I felt like the hottest thing at the wedding (sorry, bride...but I was...in an understated way). I am 5'4", 118lbs, an hourglass shape, and the size 4 fit perfectly. The only issue issue I had with both the size 4 and backup size 6, was that I could not get the zipper down on either of them, prior to putting it on. The zipper gets stuck where there is a cluster of fabric at the waist of the dress, which makes it a bit challenging to get on and take off.
