Awkwardly huge
I rented the smallest size, and was still swimming in the sweater, but it was only huge in the body of the sweater (not the arms). It looked like a maternity sweater on me. It should be a little longer with baggier arms if it was supposed to be so oversized.

Cute, but short on me
I didn't end up wearing this dress. It came a couple inches above my knees and with the gap in the slit in the front, it looked a lot shorter. I wanted to wear it to work. I think my mistake in renting it is that it's more of a "night out" or dinner dress, based on how the fabric looks in person, and not really a work dress. I could probably wear it to work if I sized up a size because the fabric is very stretchy.

Comfortable and put together
This dress was easy to wear to work, and comfortable to wear all day. I wore it a couple of times. I'm about 22 weeks now, have gained about 12 lbs, and my regular pre-pregnancy size fit well. There's room in the dress too for those who want to wear it later in pregnancy as well.

Comfortable and warm
These are great comfortable pants for work. They are nice and warm too despite not being lined. I sized up a size to a size 6 because I'm in my second trimester (currently around 140 lbs) and they fit well! The have a side zipper that does not cut into my growing belly.

Simple, comfortable and flattering
I love the fit of this dress. It is flattering, stretchy and easy to move it. I love wearing it to work because there is no low neckline to constantly check or a slit to adjust. It's the look of a classic wrap dress without having to deal with the "wrap" part. I would recommend this for work or a day event.

Comfortable, flattering
I rented this for work, on a day that I had some big meetings. I wore it with a cardigan and tights for the winter, and it looked really nice. It was comfortable and nips in really nicely at the waste to make it slimming.

Flattering, beautiful print
This top is flowy, but is still flattering. I wore it with jeans one weekend and tucked into a skirt for work. The turtleneck is comfortable as well.

Fits everything and is super cute
This tote has plenty of room for all of my work stuff (folders, extra sweater, water bottle, lunch bag... everything)! The color is a rice dark green. It is also comfortable to wear when it is full. It looks nice an simple and I'm glad I rented it.

Comically smaller than pictured
I should have read the reviews - I went one size up from my usual size, but these are basically as tight as leggings and I would have needed to wear a long sweater with to wear these to work. The color was nice, but I did not end up wearing these.

Pleat Front Dress Pants

Nice color and comfortable
I rented this for work. The color was nice and the shape is nice. I got a size up than I usually wear and could have gone with my normal size because the fabric stretches. I didn't realize there is padding in the bust. The way the folds in the front go, there is a lot of extra fabric in abdominal area. I felt like I was just wearing... extra weight. The dress has a nice shape but the dress made me feel heavier.

Fun for casual days
I got this in a size up from what I usually wear, and it was so stretchy (and too big), so I would rent my usual jean size if renting these. I wore these to some casual events and got some compliments and they were very comfortable. I only own a couple of pairs of jeans because it's hard to find nice ones that fit perfectly and that I'll keep for a while, so this was a fun way to try a new style.

Cute and comfortable
I liked this dress and the little details. The embroidery is very cute and I like the pleat in the front middle but I also like that the small slit is to the side so the dress moves well when you walk. It does run large- I should have worn a size down but it was only available at the time in a small. It's a pretty casual dress but could be dressed up for a dinner etc.
Micro Floral Utility Dress
VINCE.
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 2

Gorgeous and comfortable
This is such a great dress- I highly recommend it. It is so comfortable and looks like it is supposed to fit kind of loose. The fabric is both silky and substantial. I wore this both to a wine tasting and to a friend's rehearsal dinner, and this looks good with a jacket or sweater if needed. I want to rent this dress again. I did tie the long strip that hangs down into a bow so that I hung right under the hem (I was worried i would step on it).

Fun back dress
I rented this for work. The color stitches really pop and are very cute. It fits true to size and the fabric is a little stiff. I had the same problem others did with the bottom zipper in the back unzipping when I sat down etc in my house so I pinned the bottom zipper with a safety pin and it stayed in place the whole day at work. I want to rent this again or buy the dress!

Loved the pattern and how the dress moved
I rented this for an outdoor wedding in California (warm afternoon, cool night) and the dress worked very well. Very comfortable. It is a little flowy and all of the pleats add a little bulk (so if you don't want your hips to look bigger this dress may not be best). The pattern is great and the dress got a lot of compliments.

Very cute, nice color
I rented this for work but it ran small on me. It's stretchy but too risqué for work in my usual size. The cut is very cute- I'm going to rent it one size up.

Nice simple formal dress
I rented this dress for a formal dinner. It is a comfortable fit, and I wore it with 2 inch heals and the regular length was great (I'm 5'7"). I was expecting the color to be more orange or pink with the white lace over it but it still is bright red. I struggled with the zipper for a while getting it on and off. Otherwise, a nice dress.

I wore these to my rehearsal dinner for a fun, sparkly look.
These were a little heavy (not too heavy) and got a lot of compliments. They are really fun.
