Navy Lana Tweed Jacket
Rebecca Taylor NYC
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 160lbs
Bust: 34D
Comfortable and distinctive with POCKETS!
This dress fit perfectly through the torso in the 4R. The width of the skirt was great for movement and the length was ideal for a cocktail gala event at Lincoln Center. I always search out dresses with pockets for benefits that I am managing because it allows me to have everything I need on hand, these pockets were very deep and allowed me to have all my tools handy without carrying a bag or a clipboard. I would definitely rent this dress again. The fabric was a bit worn (I would imagine it has snagged over its many wears) but the texture of the material hid the imperfections.

Crystal Moon Dress
SACHIN BABI
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 160lbs
Bust: 34D
Great color, unique details, really stood out!
Rented this for a debutante ball and it was just the thing to stand out a bit while still being respectful of the formality of the occasion. The dress fit well overall, but was a bit short with the heels I wore (and I'm not tall). If you plan to wear very high heels or if you're tall, I'd order the long version.

Prosser Gown
Raoul
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 135lbs
Bust: 34B
Wonderfully eye-catching!
I rented these to wear with the Raoul Prosser Gown and they were the perfect compliment to that dress. With an updo and the high neckline, they really popped. My only complaint is that the clip ons were a bit more snug than I'm used to and my ear lobes ached by the end of the night.

Honeycomb Stud Earrings

Very distinctive dress, very comfortable (can wear normal underwear), compliments all night!
Rented this for a gala I was running, so I was looking for certain criteria. Color had to stand out (nobody can find the woman in the black dress when something goes wrong), had to be comfortable, had to be festive but not too sparkly as I was speaking from a lit stage, and had to have pockets (I can never fit everything I need in a clutch and a purse is impractical). I was a little nervous renting this because it is so different from the things I usually wear, but this dress was perfect for what I needed. The color was appropriate for a spring gala and distinctive so vendors, ticket buyers, and volunteers could all easily find me. The skirt was roomy enough that the dress is incredibly comfortable (and you don't have to squeeze into spanx on a hot night). The pockets were so deep that I could easily fit everything I needed without it being obvious I was carrying anything. It looked great against the velvet curtain from the lit stage. And people loved it. I can't tell you how many compliments I received. It was a fun dress to wear, I would rent it again!
