Runs VERY small!
I lost weight this year (35 lbs) and last year the size L Rivet Utility jumpsuits fit perfectly so I figured a M would fit at 132, nope! SKIN TIGHT. Size up at least two sizes y'all.

I wore this dress to photograph a wedding and it was perfect! The boning and structure allowed me to norms wear a bra and the pockets were amazing!

Unique and cute!
Fit was a little boxy but I didn't mind. I wore this shirt open as a light jacket and closed with a tank under as a shirt. I think I could have sized down one or two sizes but it was cute a little oversized too.

Beautiful but SERIOUS quality issues
This dress fit beautifully and was great until it wasn't. BOTH straps broke after about two hours of literally just sitting at the wedding I was attending. I had to tie the straps into a halter which was really uncomfortable. The straps and bodice weren't even tight, just poorly sewn on.

Weirdly large and small
This was such a sad rental. I’m not sure who these pants would fit, but it ain’t me. I’m 5’3 and an 8-10 and the waistband hits at my boobs. The waist itself is a bit tight but there’s a weird, huge loose bunch of fabric in the front. It’s such a shame because from the thigh down these are gorgeous pants that are so comfortable. You could maybe make it work if you work the matching blazer closed all night, covering the foopa these pants so kindly make for you.

True Veda Sizing, GLITTER!
If you've rented Veda before, you know what you're getting. You know you're getting the highest quality materials and design. You also know that if you are not extremely thin and/or want to wear clothing under your jacket, you'll want to size up. The glitter really is quite subtle on this jacket and I've paired with with plain dresses, jeans and tees and a fancy dress with heels. It's looked great with all my outfits! Sorry Unlimited pals I won't be returning this anytime soon.

Classy goth!
I love these earrings. I'd buy them in a second if they were cheaper, but that's what Unlimited was made for! Anyway, I wore these multiple times over a few weeks to a variety of events. I even wore them photographing two, 8 hour weddings and they were comfortable to wear all day! They are quite large, fancy, and definitely a statement piece so if you're wearing for every day you'll want to keep your outfit a bit more toned down and casual. A side note for those with ears sensitive to nickel/other alloys: I get really nervous renting jewelry as my ears swell up like a balloon with a lot of earrings. However, as I mentioned I wore these almost the entire day and I had no reaction!

Nothing bad, nothing special, SHEER!
Perhaps I should have read the reviews, but I had no idea this was so sheer. The bust section has a bit more fabric but I still would never feel comfortable wearing it as a dress without leggings. It fit just fine but wrinkled very easily.

Ugh. I'm so sad. This bag is literally the cutest. It's a great size and super unique colors. However, as others have said, it won't stay shut, so it's not a functional purse/bag. Whomp whomp.

Weirdest, best dress!
This dress should not work. If it arrives untied you will think "oh goodness no." Then you put it on and it is somehow flattering, comfortable and fits perfectly. A tiny note next time I rent it I might try sizing down to see how it fits but TTS was great. Let's talk about the print. Yup, there are naked ladies on it. Nope no one has ever noticed or commented about them, but it's fun to point them out! Sorry that I'll be keeping this one for a long time folks.

I thought I could maybe make this work but nope, it's too weird. I'm usually a size 8-10 and was swimming in the XS. You can tell this piece is high quality and it's such a shame that the fit is so weird/gigantic because the print is so cute! Bummerville!

Cute, comfy and pockets!
I rented this for a music festival and loved it! I normally wear an 8/10 but they weren't available so I got a 12. It was big on top and in the waist but not enough to make it unwearable so I'd say it's TTS. Traveled very nicely and kept me cool in 100 degree Vegas heat!

Such a shame, cute print, weird fit and fabric
I decided to finally try this dress as it looks cute on the model and I love the print. Unfortunately, the reviews are pretty accurate. The fabric is so weird, scratchy and wrinkly. Not really sure why this dress is so expensive or who it would fit and look good on. As other reviewers stated it runs quite large. I sized down one size but could have gone down two or maybe even three. Might look good on a tall, curvy girl?

So much potential, so much fabric!
I loved how this dress looked on the model but even though I sized down, it was gigantic on me and I looked like a marshmallow. There's so much extra material between the arms and sides I just don't get it. If you are a very tall person I think you could pull this off but it's just way too much for a shorter person like me, I'm 5'3". The fabric is beautiful and obviously high quality.

High quality dress, small fit
I love the feel and look of this dress! It is obviously very well made and I think it would look great on many body types! A word of caution that the waistband has no stretch and cut into my ribs at times but it didn't bother me enough to not wear the dress. If I rent it again I'll size up to have a more comfortable fit.

Gorgeous, easy party dress!
The amazing team at RTR overnighted me this dress after the one I rented did not fit. (Thanks!) I ended up loving this rental much more! Both the large and the medium fit me. The large was a little big in the bust area and I don't have a small bust, ha! The medium fit like a glove and held everything in so I didn't have to wear a bra or spanx! Bonus! The fabric does have a little stretch in it. All in all, my advice would be to go with your normal size and one size up for backup if you want to wear shapewear. I wore this to a charity ball and got more compliments than I did on my wedding day! The only negative I can think of is the the sequins could irritate sensitive skin if you're moving/dancing a lot.

Best casual dress ever!
I LOVE this dress. It is so cute, comfortable, stylish and oh my gosh, DOESN'T WRINKLE EVER! I brought this dress with me on a 3 week long trip and wore it multiple times in 40 degree weather with leggings and 80 degree weather with flats. It looked great even at the end of my trip with no ironing. It does fit quite loosely and I will probably rent again through Unlimited in a size down. I'm 5'3" and it hit at mid knee.

HEAVY but quality jacket!
Very cool, bad*** jacket. This fits pretty true-to-size but don't plan on wearing with heavier knits unless you have very skinny arms and shoulders as the leather is so thick, it would be hard to move. I tried this jacket with many different outfits but found it worked best on me with a frillier dress or long tunic, otherwise I felt a little too "tough." Overall, very cool and worth renting for a concert or other occasion where you wouldn't mind standing out in a crowd.

Sigh... not for short waisted ladies...
This dress is GORGEOUS and would have fit perfectly if not for the pockets. I didn't even see that it had pockets when I picked it out to rent. Since I'm short and short-waisted, the pockets hit just below the widest part of my hips, bulged out and looked weird. If you're short you could try sizing up to counteract this issue but that might make it too big up top. Wanted to love it and might try again in a size up, maybe after seeing a few more reviews from shorter-waisted, petite ladies like me.

So beautiful, but beware of the HUGE fit up top!
Sigh. I was SO DISAPPOINTED that this dress did not fit. To be honest, I don't think there are many people this dress will fit correctly. You'd have to have much larger than average breasts with a normal size waist. Almost every dress I've rented from RTR (I'm an Unlimited Member) has fit well in a size 8, this is one of the few exceptions. While the waist fit fairly well, (a little big), the breast area was GIGANTIC! I'm an average size 34B but even with an ample push up bra I had at least 4-5 inches of room that no amount of fashion tape would have fixed. If you're going to try this one I'd get one size down as your primary size and a size down from that as your backup.

Weirdly cute?
I rented this dress just to wear everyday as something casual since I live in a tiny mountain town. When I put it on I didn't know what to think... It is SO COMFY but is also so weird, boxy, and oversized. I wear a medium or 8 in most RTR items and could have gone with an XS instead of a S. It did grow on me and as long as you wear it with some leggings and short booties the proportions look better. The pockets are a huge plus! Overall I'd recommend this dress for ladies that aren't afraid to try something a little weird. :)

Cute and Comfy!
I loved this dress!!! It is just the right weight and the fabric feels very expensive. As you can see by the photo it was a comfortable length for me as a 5'3" lady but if you're super tall I can see it being a little short to wear without leggings. I felt like the shoulders fit a little off, maybe too wide? Otherwise great everyday dress!

Great, comfy, beautiful dress!
LOVED everything about this dress. The fit was loose and comfy but was so flattering. I felt comfortable wearing it without a bra but bustier gals might want to be aware that it would tough to find a bra that didn't show. The slits go up pretty high on the sides , mid to upper thigh on me, but there's extra fabric so you can kind of fold over one side to be more conservative when sitting. Not many dresses this light have pockets that can actually hold things, such a big plus! I'm a shorty and this was just the right length with Tom's wedges.

Cute, well-made dress for every day.
I love Free People in general so had to try this one. The fabric feels very high quality and love the double layer wrap. I found the fit on this to be a little weird but probably because I'm short-waisted and only 5'3". The top portion of the dress was a little long for me and kind of fell over at the bustline rather than standing up like it does on the model. The ties were also comically long on me no matter how I tied them. The skirt fit perfectly though so I'd say this one is true to size. Overall super cute dress, maybe better for taller ladies.

Unique print, easy fit, great dress!
LOVE every dress I've rented from Mara Hoffman! Her prints are magic and her dresses always fit me even though I'm short-waisted and short in general. I loved that this one wasn't too sheer and could be dressed up or down. I wore it in Hawaii with flip flops but it would look great with wedges or a casual heel. This one runs pretty big. I got the small but probably could have gone with the XS.

The.Cutest.Dress. This came in my first ever Unlimited order and I honestly thought about keeping it for a while even though there a million other dresses to choose from! The pockets are awesome and this piece is so stinkin comfy. It can be dressed up or down, can be worn in warm or cold weather, it just rocks! I'm pretty short and this went almost down to my knees so it looked more like a dress-dress than a tunic as it looks on the model.

No event.
Cute sweater, but LOUD! I think this sweater was a little too fancy for my tiny mountain town needs. It's super cute but VERY heavy, makes a ton of noise when you move and you will attract attention in it. I think it would be great for someone in a bigger city but was just too formal for my purposes.
