Fun romper, but a little cheeky
Loved this romper--looked super put together effortlessly--but it ran a little short for me. I had to pull it down a lot or risk some cheek peeking out.

Great top but runs small
Definitely size up in this one! I almost always wear a Medium in tops but this would definitely have been more flattering in a Large. Great quality though!

Something about this sweater just popped. It seems like a basic item but I got a ton of compliments. Great quality knit and nice fit.

great shirt but runs very large
Good quality shirt (but maybe not quite up to the retail price). It runs VERY large. I usually wear a medium but got a small based on reviews and it was still at least one size too large, even for an oversized look.

one of my favorite pieces ever!
these were the most amazing pants. i am largest through the hips, so worried about the extra fabric but they were SO flattering. i got a million compliments. too unique for me to buy, but if these came in solids, i would have purchased every color.

more casual than expected, SIZE UP
there were so many reviews about how low cut this dress was that I was worried, but loved the print so took the risk. the dress is NOT low cut *if you order the right size*. i ordered my very reliable, usual size and the dress was *at least* an inch too small to button the interior button and so appeared very low cut. but if i had ordered the larger size and been able to button it, it would have not been low cut at all. the dress was also a much more casual cotton fabric than i expected. nice, but on the casual side for work. still a great dress and hope to try again some day in the right size!

wore this one to the eras tour and had a great night :) the cutouts are fun without being too revealing. i'm usually a size 8 and the XLR fit perfectly. there's a little stretch to the dress if you're between sizes but not a ton.

gorg dress, runs a smidge large
liked this dress a lot! totally appropriate for work but could also be fun for an event. if between sizes, go down. i am usually a size 8, sometimes 10, and the 4R was bigger than i needed, not so much i couldn't wear it, but the 3R would have been more flattering.

nothing special but a good dress
this didn't wow me but it was a perfectly nice dress. if between sizes, go down. i am usually a medium, sometimes small, and the medium was too big for me. not enough that it wasn't wearable, but it kept sliding down all day and didn't flatter me as much as a small would.

Wanted to like this more than I did
This was very "meh." There wasn't much shape to it so it wasn't really flattering or not flattering and the fabric was a nice print but kind of lifeless. It also could have used a waistband--it just seemed unfinished.

The perfect cozy sweater
I wish I could live in this sweater! It was a heavy wool but not scratchy at all and was breathable so I never felt overheated or stuffy. The "T" logo was a great detail to elevate the look. Will definitely get this one again!

Good quality but small
This was a nice bag, but definitely too small for everyday use. It was deceptively small too because it looked bigger but the inside was filled with so many pockets that took up valuable real estate rather than making it better organized. I could fit some credit cards (not my wallet) and a pair of sunglasses but that was about it.

Great dress but runs an entire size large
Bright and cheery print, flattering cut, durable but soft fabric. Runs very large though--I am a true size 16 and this was swimming on me. I even think the 14 would be a touch roomy. Would definitely rent again but in a smaller size.

Great fabric but could have used belt loops
Fit is TTS. Like all Chiara Boni, there are no zippers/buttons--they just pull up and the material is built to stretch but hold the skin. Turns out that works better for me with her dresses than pants, probably because my hips are a lot wider than my waist. Because of that these slid down slowly while I walked and I definitely had to pull them back up after a few blocks or I'd have been mooning the street. I still give a high rating though because they were extremely flattering and very comfortable.

Loved the velvet leopard print!
This was a fantastic dress. The fabric felt very luxe and was so comfortable. The fit is true to size. I sized up because I was unfamiliar with the designer but my normal size would have been just fine. Can't wait to rent this one again!

Nice color but super weird fit
These fit huge through the waist, hips, and thighs but were then super tight around my calves. I definitely needed to size down to fit correctly in the waist/hips/thighs but then the calf area would have been super tight. Not a fan.

Nice dress but runs even smaller than Black Halo usually does
As with most Black Halo dresses, this is a really well-made dress with a flattering cut in a great color, but it runs SMALL. I am a 16 in 90% of other designers and usually an 18 in Black Halo. When it came to this one, even the 18 was really snug. I would recommend going two sizes over your usual one. Other than that though it was a really great dress for work or a conservative special occasion.

Got so many compliments!
I absolutely adored this dress. The pattern is beautiful, cut is very flattering and comfortable. It was TTS although loose-fitting. I am usually a 16 and this was just a smidge tight through the shoulders/upper arms, but was otherwise a good fit. Hope to rent this one again.

Good for work week or weekend
Fit was true to size, tightest (but not tight) through the hips. Hit just below the knee on me. Was able to pair it with casual boots for a weekend brunch and heels for the office, looking totally appropriate for both. Would definitely rent again and may even buy it next time!

Fun pattern, quality dress, flattering cut
Would recommend. I chose to size up based on other reviews and I'm glad I did. Although I probably could have squeezed into my TTS, the cut was much flattering with a little extra room.

Nice dress but not for me
Unlike most Black Halo, this dress runs true to size. I sized up out of habit for this designer, but it turned out my true size would have been better. The neckline is deeper than photos indicate--just *barely* work appropriate. The sleeves were strange and didn't work as well on me as I would have hoped so I probably wouldn't rent it again but overall it was a flattering, well-made dress.

Pretty pattern but runs on the small side and is very form fitting
I like the fabric and pattern of this dress, but wasn't a huge fan of it for a work setting. It ran somewhat small--you can get away with your normal size due to stretch in the fabric but you'll look better if you size up once. The cut combined with the thin-ish stretch fabric also made this much more form fitting than really appropriate for work.

Runs smaller than usual Thakoon
Unfortunately, I was not able to wear this one. Nice print and quality material, but it was too tight at the button on the waist seam--barely snapped and I knew I'd be worried about it all day. Recommend it if you can size up.

Great work dress, runs small
Like all Black Halo dresses, you definitely need to size up at least 1 size and 2 wouldn't hurt. The color is more tan almost bordering on khaki than ivory but really nice either way. Love that it has pockets.

Good option for work, but runs a little large and its not sweater material
I liked this as a good go-to for work. The cut is very flattering and I always love navy. The material is more of a thicker crepe than actually sweater material. And Rachel Roy tends to run large in letter sizing, so as a size 16, I went with the XL rather than XXL. The XL fit great, although either would probably have been fine.
