Bleh....
Tight waist, and short, but not in a cute way. Better for someone 5'6" and below who has a more hourglass figure.

Cute, TTS
The neck hole is tight (or I have a huge head.) But, once on, it's very pretty. This size was very tight on me. If you are between sizes, size up.

Not flattering, kinda itchy, not soft
Somehow, this itchy sweater made my relatively big chest look like I barely had pecs. It turned me into a box. The pants (reviewed separately) didn't help. Uncomfortable and boring. It didn't leave my living room.

Gorgeous but use your Euro size
In US brands, I'm a 4-6, in Euro brands I'm a 6-8. The 6 wasn't available, and I made the mistake of going for the 4. The hips fit perfectly, but as I have a 34D, my rib cage and chest wouldn't allow the dress to close. I was bummed because it was gorgeous from the front!! It has that perfectly tailored, corset vibe. Will try again when the 6 is available- hopefully the hips wont be too big!

Weird fit
The crotch is so weirddddd. Are they for men? I could fit their parts in the weird crotch. I'm not really curvy, so maybe these are cute with a smaller waist and curvier hips, but did not work on my body.

SIZE DOWN
I am not an XS. I'm currently 5'8", ~135, no waist, large rack- I'm usually a 6-8. In designer (old timey sizes) I'm an 8; in corporate (Club Monaco, Banana, Ann Taylor) sizes- I'm a 4. In Zadig and Voltaire, I am normally a small to medium- but in this shirt, an XS was pretty perfect, and probably would have been fine in an XXS. If you are a TRUE 0-2, you will swim in the XS.

Somehow too big and too small
I looked like a linebacker It was low cut and a good length, but the shoulders and armpits are so weird fitting, it looked insane. Beautiful colors though!

Super cute
Short and flirty. It's a little hard to match, because it's like a brown/black. I don't have much of a butt right now (working on it, haha,) but if you have a badonk, size up.

Oversized in an unflattering way
Not cute. It fit TTS at the waist, but then was weirdly tailored. I think the intent was to look oversized, but it wasn't pulled off well on my body.

Oversized in an unflattering way
OK I get that the intent is oversized, but then the arms are weirdly short. I was not impressed by this suit. The color is great- like a muted mint- but the style was not for me.

Boxy but cute
I could see this as being really cute with short jean shorts in spring/fall. It didn't work for me for the winter, but I may try it again in a different season. The fit is really boxy.

Cute, low cute, very tame for Zadig & Voltaire
This is very low cut. I'm all for cleavage, but this is not work appropriate. Also, you can size down- I should have done an XS, when I'm normally between a Small and Medium.

Bubble romper
This is ok. It gives a little oompa loompa or Missy Elliot, "Can't stand the rain," vibe. It was too poofy for me to wear socially- I just wore it for errands, because I can't stand wasting money. So, I always feel like I have to wear things at least once when I rent them.

Really pretty pattern and tailoring
I've rented this a few times and have always been very happy. It's lightweight enough for summer, but thick enough that it's not see thru. The tailoring is really nice and feminine. Buttons are cute and has a little modesty panel to prevent a free show if the buttons gap.

Beautiful embroidery!
This is gorgeous. It's tight enough that you don't need a bra, but if you want one, it needs to be a low-back one for the pseudo lacing in back. It would have been better if I wore stillettos, but I had a lot of walking around the Guggenheim to do for an event in October. Wore it with a little pashmina.

Super cute, size up for a bigger chest
It was so excited about this top. Unfortunately, it was a little too tight in the chest for me. The length was great and the waist size was great.

Like wearing your grandmother's drapes
I love toile patterns. However, this dress was made of such thick material, I was transported back to my grandmother's "parlor" and felt like she had sewn this together from those heavy old lady textiles to get me to the garden party. This must weigh at least 10lbs. It's so thick. So not ok not just for an NYC summer, but just felt uncomfortable in general. Look was ok, but I couldn't get the overall feel of grandma's drapes out of my head, so I only wore it to do an errand and back in the blue bag it went.

Cute and airy
It's a basic dress- not much to it- hence the 4 stars. There isn't much give to it, so it rides up a lot when sitting. Definitely a good rental for subscription people.

Nice, subtle pattern
Form-fitting but still loose enough that it's professional. Hits right below the belt line in midrise jeans. I was able to dress this up for work or down for lunch with friends.

Too small. Even with a cami, it wasn't good. The length was short and when it was tied it looked like a peplum top.

Vibrant colors! Very attractive!
Fit perfectly! When I wore it to a business dinner- I did wear a cami under it. Like any wrap dress it's prone to loosening a little and showing too much cleavage. I also wore it on a date, where I could not care less about showing off the girls, sans cami. It still stayed pretty well put.

Great for a work dinner
The material is thick and doesn't gape when you sit. The slit comes up a little high when sitting, but by tying it in the front, you get an extra little cover for your knee.

I rented this for a conference, and ended up not being able to wear it except for social events because it was pretty see-through, especially in workplace lighting.

I'm between sizes, but should have sized down. It made it a little hard to tuck and not look too blousy. I made it work. Will rent again just in a smaller size.
