In a word: Perfection!
From the moment I saw this dress, I was in love with it! The colors are gorgeous and the cut is so flattering. There is a very high slit on the thigh which goes all the way up to your hip, so be sure to wear nude undergarments underneath. I am a true size 2, so while this dress did fit, I definitely could have worn a size 0. Because of this, I would suggest getting your true size and one size down for backup. I am 5'1" and wore it with flat sandals, so the length was a bit long but not too bad. Material was like a thick gauze-type so very breathable. Would 100% recommend for a photoshoot - looks perfect with a red lip!

South Beach Chic!
This dress is a winner! I had to get used to the top being so open, but once I got comfortable in it, I LOVED it! Nicholas overall tends to run about a 1/2 size small. I'm a true size 2 so this fit, but it was a tiny bit snug. I would definitely recommend getting your true size and one size up for backup. Because the top is so open, I wouldn't recommend this dress to anyone with over a C-cup. The waist and hips are very fitted, and there is virtually no stretch to the material. Happy Renting!

Comfortable romper!
The material of this romper was so soft and comfortable! While it may be considered a bit low cut for some, I think it added a bit of sex appeal to an otherwise conservative outfit. The shorts weren't too short, either. The front insert is lace, which I do not think is 100% clear from the stock photo on the site. It is also a Navy blue romper, not black, with a drawstring for added fit. Overall, I was very happy with this romper.

Gorgeous 1960's style lace shift!
This dress is a beautiful peach color that is much more vibrant in person than it appears in the picture. I would say that, for the style, it does run a tad big. I would order your regular size and one size down for backup. I would also say that this may not be the best choice for those who are smaller and petite. It looked a bit like a moo moo on me. Regardless, it is a beautiful dress! Wish I could've worn it.

Great structured dress.
I love this dress! I knew that it ran small so I ordered a size 4 when I typically wear a size 0 or 2. It fit great! I would like to see how the size 2 fit to compare, but know there is no way a size 0 would've fit. I would recommend sizing up at least one, if not two, sizes depending on your body type. If you are larger in the bust or hips, def size up twice. I am 5'2" and the dress hit about mid-calf and was super flattering with heels. The material is on the heavier side, so be aware of that. Tip: To get into the dress, you need to put one strap over your head, then the other, then put each arm through, all while both zippers are undone.

Cute Jumpsuit!
I had been eyeing this jumpsuit for a while, and was happy to see it become available in my regular size 2R. I'm sorry to say the size 2R was a bit too large for me to wear. Therefore, I'd recommend ordering this item in your regular size and one size down. The material was not as stiff as I envisioned it would be, which was a nice surprise. It was also more matte than I thought as well. Wish I could have worn it!

Beautiful Dress!
I loved this dress! I wore it for my bridal shower in May. I wanted something that was long enough to cover my legs as I unwrapped gifts, so I went with this dress. At 5'2", it fell about 2-3 inches below my knees (midi-length). Unfortunately it was not available in my regular size 2, so I ordered the size 0. It was slightly tight and flatten my chest since the fabric does not have any stretch to it. Therefore, I would suggest ordering your regular size and one size up for backup. Other than that, the cut was beautiful, the fabric was just the right thickness to not show every imperfection, and the color was Gorgeous! I would recommend this dress to anyone!

A sweet chiffon maxi!
I rented this dress to wear for Mother's Day. It's a very easy, simple dress. You can wear it with regular undergarments, which is a huge plus! Another plus is that you don't need to wear much else with it, because it's beautiful on its own. I am regularly a size 2 and wanted to wear it with flats, so I ordered the 0P since I usually need to size down. The 0 was ever so slightly big, but the length was perfect for my barely 5'2" frame. Caution: The bottom of this dress is Extremely see through! Be sure to wear a slip underneath to avoid everyone seeing your underwear when the sunlight shines the back.

Love the neckline of this dress!
Usually when I rent, I need to order one size down from my regular size. However, with this dress, I wish I would've ordered my regular size 2. This dress must run TTS because the size 0 was a bit tight. But it is such a gorgeous dress! It is unlined but I wouldn't say it impacted what I thought of it. I would recommend wearing the dress with a push-up bra, since the top flattens you a bit (although this may just have been because it was a touch too small for me. The material is on the heavier size and beautifully textured. Overall, Love this dress.

Beautifully cut dress!
I wish I could have worn this dress! The fabric is a great quality- not too thin, not too thick. The cut is super flattering on your neck and arms. I'm not sure if this is accurate, since I did receive a brand-new dress with the tags still on, however I found that this style ran big. I am usually a size 2 but could not wear this in a size 2, as it was too large for me. Also, I am 5'2", so the wrap portion of the bottom of the dress hung below my knees, which made me appear that much shorter. I would recommend ordering your regular dress size, and one size down as your free backup. I would also recommend this dress for those 5'4" and over. Another note about this dress, you need to be sure to wear seamless undergarments, otherwise you will see every line. A strapless bra can be worn with this dress as well. The color is a bright, beautiful peach. Overall, this is a beautifully designed and made dress!

Rent this romper for a quick, no-fuss, dressed up look
LOVE this romper. The lace was so soft on my skin, and the lining was smooth. The shape of it made my waist look tiny! I'm usually a size 2, however I comfortably wore a size 0, which fit like a dream. Only 2 cons: 1) the obvious having to take off your entire outfit to use the restroom, 2) the lace would caught on itself when the sleeve touched bodysuit.

Cute, easy dress!
I rented this dress to wear for a family party. I am 5'2", and found it wasn't too short that it was inappropriate, and was long enough to not show anything when raising your arms up. I would say that the fit runs a bit on the larger size, as I am usually a size 2. The 0 fit, but I did notice the fabric pulled slightly on my hips, bust, and upper arms. Also, the sleeves are a tiny bit restricting but this could have been due to the sizing, not the cut. The fabric was beautifully vibrant and soft! Overall, it was a great, well-made dress.

Cute, retro-inspired with a modern twist dress!
This dress is beautiful! It was not the chiffon dress I was thinking it was. It was much more of a knit material, which is great for cooler weather. The bottom of the skirt was not as visibly see-through as it appears to be online. I am about 5'2", so I was a little afraid that the dress might be too long for me, but they dress hit me at about 5" above my ankle, so it didn't make me appear short like most tea-length dresses do. I rented my normal dress size, which is a US 2, and I found that I could have worn the 0 for a more fitted-at-the-waist look. The size 2 kind of hung since it was a tad large and the fabric's weight was pulling the dress down. A belt at my natural weight was a quick fix for that. Overall, a wonderfully-made dress with a sweet silhouette!

Gorgeous cut, not for short-waisted women
Loved the style of this dress. However, since I am short-waisted, the middle section did bunch up on me. The top of the dress fit a tad bit tight, and the skirt portion fit a bit loose. Overall, not a good fit for me in particular, however the material and cut of the dress is gorgeous!

Different than expected, but still adorable!
I rented this dress for my engagement shoot thinking that it was a cable-knit dress. However, it was actually a cable-knit pattern on the dress. Even though I was a little disappointed, it is still a cute dress! Fit was great. No zipper, so you do need to pull it over your head and be careful not to get makeup on it.

Pretty, Demure Dress
This was a great dress, just not what I was expecting. The material does not have a sheen to it, like it appears to have in the photo pictured. Other than that, it was beautiful, but a bit plainer than I wanted it to be. It was ever-so-slightly bigger than I would have liked it to be, so I'd recommend ordering your regular size, as well as one size smaller.

Love! Super comfortable and sexy!
I loved wearing this dress! I felt super sexy in it! It is form fitting, but does not reveal to much. It was also very comfortable, and subtlety sexy with the back cutout. I would very much recommend it!
