Pretty dress, low neckline
I've rented this dress twice. It's perfect expect for the slit down the front. I have a small bra size, cups B. So maybe that contributes but I don't see how it would be much more professional with bigger bust size. It's subtle so I can get away with it at work but I won't rent again because of this.

Big fluff coat
It's a biggish coat. That's the look but it can overtake you as well. And I'm tall. It's super warm and fluffy. Have fun with it!

Comfortable and flattering dress
Paired with over the knee boots. You can't go wrong with this dress for winter work wear.

Wore as a "coat"
Saw someone else note that they just wore this as a coat over an outfit. I don't do very well with the V neck dresses and this was no different. Would have gone to work showing my bra. LOVED it as a coat. May keep...
Dean Dress

Very average pants
The quality of these pants were decent but they have a stretchy waist and ultimately are not very "high end". I"'m 5'9" and could barely wear a heel. Not even sure I should. That said, they fit snug and relatively flattering. I would wear again if I needed to but wouldn't rent again.

Fun jumpsuit
The fit is unique for sure. I think that's true of any one piece. But I got a lot of compliments and would definitely rent again. It's fun and different!

Great LBD
I almost purchased this. It's the perfect size and fit. My only complaint is the quality of the material. Felt cheap and didn't feel it was worth a purchase. Would definitely consider renting again.

Pretty but short
The dress fits well and I like how it flows. The design is pretty and versatile. I'm 5'9" and it's a bit short for me. I wore it with tights but wouldn't be comfortable without them. The number of buttons and zippers to get into this dress are a bit cumbersome as well.

Cute everyday dress
I'm 5'9" and ordered the 6. I probably could have worn the 8. It was pretty short. I wore it for going out with some girlfriends and got a lot of compliments. It's an easy dress to wear, very comfortable and versatile. Would probably order again, just different size.

Gorgeous black jumpsuit
I put this on and was like, va va boom! This piece is one that will speak to you. Only difficulty is going to the bathroom in the piece which is not very easy. That said, I felt very confident in this great piece.

Perfect small black purse
I am moving and packers had packed all of my purses so I needed something quickly for a formal affair and also something to bring on a trip. This was great. My only complaint is it really does not hold a large iPhone well but that's what you get. These phones are big!

Versatile piece
I ended up wearing this to travel to Montreal. I thought it was an easy piece to dress up or dress down and be stylish. Overall I didn't feel I would get that much wear out of it, thus the 4 stars. Also I would probably need a smaller size to be a little bit more flattering. I don't have much of a chest and it just seemed to hang here.

Unbelievable LBD
This dress for like a glove. I seriously felt like a rock star as soon as I put it on. Very flattering and sexy but it's professional. I wore it at a work event. Love love love.

Great summer top
Material is comfortable, color is great and fits snug (on shoulders) without being too tight. I wore it for a couple of events. It can be dressed up or down.

Beautiful fabric
I have broad shoulders and this fit well. It's a sharp jacket that could probably paired with almost anything for work. The actual jacket appeared a bit worn but that didn't really bother me. Would definitely consider purchasing if I needed something like this.

Hot
I ordered up based on reviews and still a little tight in terms of length. I had a difficult time bending over. That said the outfit is simply hot and easy. I wore it out to dinner and a night in vegas. Super sexy.
