Love it
Living in this and keeping for another cycle. Fun to style and also comfortable for lounging. TTS, pretty color, fun details, good quality, and really cozy.

Not very flattering
I wanted to like this more but think the fit just wasn’t for me. Shoulders were TTS and I know the dress is supposed to be loose, but the waist + slightly cropped but oversized sleeves were very unflattering on me. Because of the seam on the waist, I couldn’t fix with a belt either! Regardless of fit, I don’t think this dress is worth close to $950 but oh well! It was fine for work. It at least has pockets!

Cute!
I got a lot of compliments on this! Really fun dress, and I thought it was flattering. It’s TTS once you’re wearing it, but it was a little hard getting it on. I had to take little steps because it’s a bit narrow at the bottom, so I wouldn’t wear this for walking around it all day but it was great for date night

So fun
I kept this for two cycles and had a hard time sending it back. I wore it with a plain cardigan and flats for work, but also wore it out for drinks with friends and received compliments every time I wore it! It’s TTS, high quality, and easy to style. A little hot because of the weight of all the embroidery/thickness of cotton but I was fine sitting in air conditioning with it on.

So pretty and can be dressed up or down. I had enough room to wear a bra when I wore this to a work event but felt secure enough to go without when I wore for it date night. I thought it was TTS and really flattering, and love a white dress that isn’t see through.

Bra kept showing
I think this would be so cute with a button up under when the weather gets cooler! I liked the length/color/fit exceeeept the armholes. They were pretty big and I couldn’t find a bra that didn’t show. Ended up going without and just not wearing this to work!

Meh
Wanted to like. It’s cute on other reviewers, plus TTS and thin without being see through. It kind of gives Speedo one piece swimsuit with the way it fits and the blue marble pattern lol. I also didn’t think the length/shape of it worked for my long torso without being tucked into things, which emphasized the Speedo practice suit vibes, and I didn’t think its shape worked for me with the matching skirt (which I did like!) unless I folded it to make a faux crop

They’re so biiiggggg
I didn’t pay attention to reviews and rented my size (29) - way too big. However, I loved the shape and material so I sized down in my next order to a 28. I had to check to make sure I didn’t accidentally sent the new ones back because the 28s somehow feel just as big? They’re falling off me. I really want to love these and am tempted to size down again but the sizing feels too inconsistent to waste another spot on them.

Glitter bomb
This isn’t the first time I’ve gotten surprise sparkles from Maje so maybe I just need to learn, but this piece is super glittery. Butter yellow color/cute boxy fit/thick material/gold buttons are all so nice but the shine makes it not really the vibe I was going for.

Surprisingly flattering
I honestly rented this as an easy throw on dress for work, but it is soooo flattering. The material is good quality and doesn’t show underwear lines, and hugs in the right way. It’s definitely tall girl friendly - it came down to my ankles so shorter gals might struggle with it touching/dragging on the ground?

Should have kept
I already regret sending this back. I wore it both for work and for vacation and it’s just the perfect summer top. Fun pattern without being over the top, and the material is so light weight that I was okay wearing it in hot weather. The slight crop made it so the shirt didn’t completely swallow me

Flattering
I loved this. I think Staud sizing can be a little finicky and this dress was pretty standard for them - tight on my butt and too big in the chest. However, the bow on this dress’s neckline is adjustable so it ended up working well for me!

So funnnn
Not my best color, but I loved the cut and pattern of this. Perfect vacay dress. TTS. I hope farm/RTR release it in other color ways! It did feel like a bit of an engineering feat getting it on and laced up correctly (especially after a couple spritzes) but loved that I didn’t need a bra, and the straps stayed nice and secure one I had some help adjusting and tying the back.

Fun dress
This was a fun rental! I wore it dressed up for work and more casually on the weekend. It’s a little sheer but not over the top. I sized up based on reviews and don’t think I needed to. I still loved wearing this, but my normal size would have been a lot more flattering!

See through
Flattering and TTS but very see through and doesn’t look good with a cami/bra because of the cute neckline and tie situation. I had to get some pasties to avoid my nipples being fully visible which made this a lot less comfortable than I hoped.

Way too big
I sent these back unworn. I was able to pull them on without unbuttoning them, and I have big hips. I would size down one size to wear them baggy and low rise, and go two sizes down to wear them more fitted.

Cute but a smidge big
Easy to wear dress that I threw a cardigan over for work. I was excited to try this collab and the quality/material of the dress feels the same as other cotton Ganni pieces. It also has pockets! I ordered my normal size in Ganni and it is a smidge big, I didn’t need to unzip the zipper on the side to get it on and the shoulders gape a bit while I’m sitting down. I’d size down if I rented again to make it more flattering.

So fun and flattering
Loved this. I thought it was TTS - I have enough room to tuck in a shirt but it’s tight enough that it stays where it’s meant to sit on my waist The pleats and pattern are delightful and the hem is pretty weighted which makes it feel high end, but also gives the most satisfying swoosh when you twirl lol.

Cute spring basic, TTS
I was a little stressed about the sizing of this but the M ended up fitting me perfectly. The elastic waist and strings make it adjustable too if you’re between sizes. I was also excited that this isn’t see through! The skirt is quite long - down to my ankles - which I appreciate because I’m tall but something for shorter gals to keep in mind.

Good for traveling
Rented this for Europe because I wanted something on trend that I could also haul stuff around in all day. I used this every day and was sad to send it back. It ties shut but I did end up adding in a bag organizer to keep valuables and smaller items more secure.

I loved this. It’s very flattering and is a fun print for spring. I wore it to a Michelin tasting menu date night in Copenhagen but dressed it down by wearing chunky loafers and a leather jacket, and didn’t feel as drastically uncool as I usually do in a room full of trendy Europeans lol. (It’s also fitted but has enough space that I wasn’t bursting out of it after 8 courses.) It is a LOT of dress so if you’re renting this for travel like I did, it will take up a lot space in your suitcase and will need a good steam when unpacked.

This dress is very flattering. It hugs in all the right places and the back cut outs are very cute. I didn’t mind that it is navy blue, not black, but something to be mindful of. Also be prepared to wear seamless undies and an adhesive bra.

It’s GANNI
I got this NWT and am going back and forth on buying it with the discount code. I love GANNI but like a lot of things from this brand, the price tag on this very simple tote bag would be significantly smaller without the giant logo on it but that’s how it goes and I’m a sucker for it! It is good quality and structured despite being a tote (it’s at least made from recycled cotton if anyone else needs help justifying a purchase!), and it’s a good size for commuting to work. I have my makeup bag, a bag organizer with all my other junk, my water bottle, and lunch fitting comfortably.

Probably keeping for a third time
This thing is adorable. Really good transitional piece. I wore with a long sleeve tee and sneakers while site-seeing on vacation, then traded the tee and sneakers for a backless bra and boots to go out at night. I’m wearing with a turtleneck and loafers today at work. It’s delightfully oversized. The bow on the back is cute. I needed to iron for like 30 min bc the denim is THICK but who cares. If it wasn’t $600 I’d be keeping it.

Perfect spring travel jacket
I want to keep this! I brought it on a spring trip to Copenhagen where it was not coat weather most of the time, but still too chilly in just a sweater when the sun was hiding. This was oversized enough to fit over layers, but didn’t look frumpy (I wore draped over shoulders a lot) and it was perfect for travel because it didn’t take up much room or weight in my carry on.

Flattering! More casual than most hill house
I loved this dress. The cut is so flattering. It’s just low-cut and tight enough than it didn’t feel like too much for a lowkey brunch, but made me feel very confident. There was no way I was keeping a bra from showing while wearing this, and granted I don’t require a whole lot of support, I felt comfortable and concealed. The only reason I’m not keeping it is because I have big arms/shoulders, and the tight sleeves started irritating me after a few hours of wear.

so flattering
I love farm rio, but I really wasn’t expecting that much out of a top. I ended up loving this. The ruching on the side makes it so flattering, and the material was thick enough that it wasn’t sheer but thin enough that it was a good transitional piece for spring

I didn’t want to send this back. It is perfect for spring and I got compliments from strangers After wearing all day, the embroidery did start irritating my skin, but I imagine I could easily wear a cami or even sports bra to prevent that if (when) I rent again.

Cute
It’s not as oversized as the matching top, but I’d still size down if I rented again. Without being able to wear the set together, my millennial self who uses RTR mostly for work struggled a little to style this for the office (it sits very low on my hips) but I still loved wearing it and received many compliments

So many compliments
I loved this. It’s very work friendly but so comfortable and I got compliments every time I wore it. Boxy but not oversized, looked good with just a white tee under. I snagged when it was released and regret returning because I don’t think I’ll be able to get my hands back on it for a while.

Shoooooort, not for tall gals
I have been looking forward to this skirt being available for so long and rented it fully aware it wasn’t going to be a workplace option but it’s too short to wear out of the house for anything. Like… butt cheeks are out while standing up straight/you can see my underwear before I bend down/seams on my tights were visible level short. I think an issue could be that the waist runs big so it won’t sit how it’s supposed to but this is being sent back unworn 💔 Short gals, please rent it it’s so cute

A little big
Pretty dress! I wore for Valentines date night and it was perfect for the occasion. I thought it ran a bit big in the waist compared to other Farm Rio pieces and would have been more flattering for me personally if it was more true to size. I also couldn’t wear a bra without it showing from the back.

Flattering
I hated this the first time I put it on because of the asymmetrical neckline and armhole situation but once I found the right bra to wear with it, I was obsessed. It is soooo flattering. I wore with boots and with loafers for work but I imagine it could be more dressed up for a fancier occasion.
