Pretty and technically fit
Technically this fit and I could easily zip but front v neck was too low and it hugged my hips in an unflattering way. I guess if you don’t have any curves, you could safely order your regular size. Unable to wear. Had to go buy a size 14 dress last minute as both the 14 and 16 of one dress and the 14 of this one (my second look) didn’t fit in any sort of flattering way. Very frustrating. Ended up a total waste of money.

Love the bright colors!
I love Trina Turk pants! I've rented these before for different occasions- going out, concert, etc. wore to work this time with a simple black top. Lots of compliments again.

Very comfortable
Rented this to have something nice to wear with my walking boot from a broken foot. Very comfortable and flattering

Very nice. Compromise on the teddy bear coat
Rented for Christmas in NYC. Really loved it but collar was stained from previous renter. Oversized look but I liked it. Would likely rent again

Dawn Faux Shearing Collar Coat

Nice but nothing special
Normally I wear 14/16 but sized up as I usually do the first time I rent from designers. This was a good choice. Cute blouse. Laid a little weird in the shoulders due to hanger pulling. Wore out to brunch with a friend with black pants and a camisole underneath due to weather. Probably won't borrow again.

Pretty dress. Tight in sleeves. Wrong for the function.
Got this when my reserved dress wasn't returned in time. Beautiful color and embroidery. See through areas of upper body would make wearing a bra very difficult. Might size up if rent again so sleeves fit. Unfortunately, this was sent without asking me about the event - had originally reserved long sleeve red Nha Khanh West dress for my function. See through material and cleavage was not the right look for colleague's retirement party!

Pretty dress. Sophisticated dress length and ruffle detail draws the eye up
Better than your basic black. Very sophisticated touches-elegant length hits just below knee, defined at natural waistline. Black satin ruffle draws the eye up. Stylist selected this, I normally stay away from high collars or fitted due to my body shape. Didn't wear this but they got me thinking about it.

Black Ruffle Cap Sleeve Sheath

Beautiful sparkle but very short!
I really wanted to wear this dress to the function - even rented two sizes to cover my bases - but just felt like it was too short. It was to give a speech honoring a retiring colleague at the annual holiday party and I couldn't show that much leg there. Maybe to a different function, though.

Ombre Natasha Dress
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 14

Beautiful color, pretty much full length
I was worried with my apple-shape, and tend to size up in pants as a precaution. These were huge!! Have since rented again in XL and they are perfect.

Lovely earrings-will rent again
Didn't end up wearing these as the dress I reserved to wear with them wasn't returned in time. Very pretty though

So cute! And fits more than a matchbook!
Great bag to wear to medical society holiday party. Lots of comments. Loved the little caviar spoon. And it actually held all my belongings for the night -phone, speech, compact, lip gloss, keys, etc!

Beautiful embroidery and colors
Got this as a substitute when the dress I reserved was unavailable. It was beautiful and the fit was fine. No problem with underarm area that some mentioned. Just not quite formal enough. And at 5'5", the length was off. Somewhere between ankle and mid calf so not as flattering. Very beautiful embroidery

Excellent lightweight ear crawlers
Got these for a party and wore them to lunches twice. Beautiful and lightweight so upper clip didn't hurt at all holding them in place. Will def rent again

Did not expect a crop top!!
Looks like a short sweater on model but was a crop top on me. I'm not really that large busted nor do I have a long torso. Disappointed as sweater was pretty with some metallic threads.

Beautiful colors. Statement earrings
Quite heavy but someone had already slanted the posts down a bit and I did find this helped keep them from pulling (learned something from prior renter). Did have to take them off in the car on the way home.

Beautiful dress. High waist. Heavy satin.
Beautiful dress. More high waisted, and barely noticeable shortening in front compared to picture. Didn’t wear it because party was more cocktail theme and not for full length gowns. 14R was a bit tight in waist, 16R appeared brand new and in excellent condition. Would consider renting for formal gala or ball.

Too casual. Thought they would be more formal
These looked more formal in the pictures, like statement earrings. Much more casual, lightweight thread. Didn't work for the function

Not as expected
Not as expected. Pretty neckline but I thought it was in a crepe-like material. The ruffle was somewhat smashed in place. Went with a different top for my dinner event.

Beautiful dress, thick fabric with lots of stretch and movement- definitely runs short
Gorgeous dress. I typically wear 14/16 but the 14 fit beautifully with some stretch and movement. Definitely glad I picked the long - even then a 3" heel would have been too much and I'm not very tall at 5'5". Unfortunately, my event was canceled or I would have lots of pictures to show
