Perfect Fit for that Second Trimester
I rented this dress for a "cocktail attire" summer wedding. It was the perfect relaxed fit for a relaxed ceremony and celebration. I'm also 16 weeks pregnant, so the bit of stretch in the material was a bonus. Don't expect to wear a strapless bra with this pick and it takes A LOT of steam or ironing to get the plume to fall where you want.

Perfect for a breezy beach wedding!
Loved this dress! It was unbelievably comfortable and great for bustin' a move on the dance floor. Speaking of "bustin'," I'm relatively large chested and have had issues with halter rentals in the past in that regard but not with this one. No under bra or tape necessary. This dress kept it tight and in place!

Bridal Shower Brunch Banger
I wore this romper for a bridal shower brunch and got so many compliments. Loved the floral detailing but it was a bit of a pain to unzip when needing to use the restroom (bring a friend). It was also difficult to tell it was shorts so I definitely got a few double-takes as it appears to be a SUPER SHORT skirt.

Feminine yet sexy!
I rented this dress for a formal bridal shower at a winery and received endless compliments all evening. I'm pretty busty so often size small rentals are a little tight in the chest, but this fit like a glove and was unbelievably comfortable. The fabric has a bit of stretch and is silky soft. The slit and peek-a-boo crops above the hips make for a sexy surprise. My only qualm is the dress was pretty long. I'm barefoot in this photo so it's EXTRA long in this particular shot but I wore four inch heels and it still was a smidgen longer than I would have liked. It grazed the floor in the front but had a bit of drag in the back. Overall, it was a stunning piece, just anticipate high footwear!

Lilac Lacey Perfection
I rented this dress for a winter wedding and it was stunning. I received compliments from just about everyone I ran in to that evening. It was certainly form fitting and I noticed snags in a few places presumably from previous orders, but nothing too noticeable. The zipper is a tricky one! It took two people to help me work up. I notice the zipper had a tendency to catch on both sizes as well so it must just be the fabric. LOVE THE LENGTH and quarter sleeves.

Laced with Sophistication
I rented this dress for a rehearsal dinner and received compliments all night. I loved how the low length kept it classy but the transparent details in the midriff and skirt added a bit of edge. One component to note is to keep an eye on the underskirt. It had a tendency to ride up but would often go unnoticed because of the long lacey top layer. Besides that it was flawless. Loved the 3/4 sleeves and high neckline! I would definitely rent again.

Flowing and Flattering
I rented this dress for a beach wedding in Mexico, unfortunately was unable to attend due to a passport issue. Good thing though because the dress was so long I didn't have any heels tall enough to keep the chiffon from dragging. I'm 5' 5" and I've never had an issue with length before, in pants or dresses alike. It was stunning in the way that it moved just a TON of fabric so heed warning.

Unforgettably Elegant
I don't think I've ever received so many compliments in one night. The dress was a huge hit and perfect for an Art Deco, formal wedding. The high-low hem made it ideal for dancing and trips up and down the grand staircase to the bar. There were a few snags in the fabrics upon delivery but the pattern was so ornate, no one could tell. I would definitely rent this dress again! My only regret was not getting a full length photo.

Elegant yet professional
This dress was classic and stunning, accentuating all the right features. Hugged close around the chest and waist and flared out in mermaid fashion at the bottom. Perfect for hourglass figure and loved how the neckline scooped in the back. I'm 5'5" and the 6 was the perfect length with 3.75" heels. Arguably, my favorite feature was the material--no steaming necessary even after travel.
