Runs small. Good for daytime.
Rented this for an intimate but dressy 50th birthday dinner. Didn’t end up wearing it as it was much too tight in the chest and far more suited for a daytime wedding than an evening dinner. But it was beautiful!

PERFECT for 50th birthday!
This dress was everything I wanted for my intimate 50th birthday dinner with ~25 of my lifelong friends. It was easy and comfortable to wear, I got compliments all night long, AND I was able to eat everything I wanted. Would happily rent it again, or buy it if possible.

Beautiful AND comfortable
I got compliments all night at a fancy holiday party. It was just the right amount of fun without being in your face. Also, super comfortable and flattering.

Stunning AND comfortable!
This jumpsuit was perfect for my 20th college reunion. Stylish but not too flashy (it is all black, after all). I typically wear a size 10 and could have gone a little smaller with this, but managed with the 46R. I would wear it again in a heartbeat!

Compliments all night!
I wore this to a black tie optional work holiday party. I'm 5 months postpartum and getting back in shape, but not there yet. I wanted something that was comfortable, forgiving, and chic. This fit the bill perfectly. I got compliments all night from a very fashionable crowd and was able to move and eat comfortably without worrying. Fits loose through the middle, which was great for my current shape. It's a teeny bit low cut for my taste for work (but that probably has more to do with the fact that I'm nursing). Also, pockets! Would definitely rent again.

A little too cute.
Fit very comfortably and was easy to wear. Looked perfectly nice, but was just a little too cute for an evening cocktail party. Would have been great for a daytime or early evening wedding.

LOVE THIS DRESS
This was beautiful. Appropriate for a dressy work cocktail party, but still pretty and sexy enough to be interesting and stand out. The deep V looked to me in the photo like it might be pushing the boundaries of work-appropriate, but it managed to be an interesting detail without showing a ton of cleavage. Several people told me that this was the best they've ever seen me look. I was heartbroken to send it back!

Striking and stunning.
Definitely modern - not to be paired with something romantic, or very formal.

My mother-in-law ran around the wedding telling everyone that I had rented the dress!
A standout in the sea of black cocktail dresses. I had at least 5 people comment on it.

This dress is unforgettable. My husband's jaw actually dropped.
Fit perfectly. Not too clingy, but curves in all the right places.
