Cute dress but it has issues
This dress looks great. I had noted all the reviewers before me who said the sleeves are tight, but I have thin arms so I thought I would be OK. I was able to wear the dress, but the sleeves felt tight enough to restrict my arm movement. Also, the many tiny buttons up the back look really cool, but it's literally impossible to button or unbutton them yourself. The night I wore this dress out, my husband decided to go on to a party after while I went home, and I had to ask my friend to go to the ladies room with me and unbutton the dress (I had a coat to wear over it) or I wouldn't have been able to get out of it when I got home.

Nice coat, annoying pockets
This coat looks great, and was warm enough for winter in Virginia. The one thing that irritated me was that the buttons and buttonholes are sewn through parts of the pockets. You can get your hands into the pockets, but they're not fully functional. It's fine for a rental, but I found it irritating. Other than that it's a great coat.

Cute but
Overall, I liked this dress. My one complaint is that where the first flounce attaches to the main part of the skirt, there's a slight reduction in volume, right at the seam, and this, combined with the higher waist can make your bum look enormous. I thought the midi-length was perfect. I'm 5'5" and the skirt length was great. The bodice is flattering.

Celine Fringe Trim Midi Dress

Comfortable and flattering
This is my second time renting this dress. I ordered the Large the last time, because I'd gained weight and now I have the medium and I love the fit. The dress is very lightweight and floaty. Perfect for hot weather, for daytime or or to wear out in the evening. The back of this dress (which can't be adjusted) hits just above the ankle. I think this dress is probably the most flattering on small or medium chests.

Too big in the chest.
I probably should have ordered the small, but my weight has been in flux lately. This dress literally would slide all the way down off my chest if I moved even a little bit. Also, the combination of the full skirt and heavy fabric made my bottom half look huge. And you'd think with such so much skirt fullness to work with, they could have added pockets. I returned it without wearing it. It's too bad because I really like the color.

Super cute
I love this coat so much. I still have it at home and I'm thinking of buying it. It's the perfect piece for chilly spring days when you can't bear to wear your winter coat any more.

Itchy
I loved the style of this sweater, but it was itchy and the sleeves were an odd length - too long to be bracelet length and too short to be long sleeves. I just looked like someone wearing a too-small sweater. It's too bad, because I loved it otherwise, and would have considered buying it but the sleeve length drove me crazy.

Unflattering
The waist was super low in these, so I couldn't even sit down without exposing myself in the back. This was my first order from Rent the Runway, so I'm still figuring out what works for me.

I didn't wear these out of the house, sorry.
The pants fit, but they were unflattering.

I didn't wear it out of the house, TBH.
The ties at the wrist were very long. The garment was oddly lumpy around the shoulders. I tried it on and immediately returned it.
