Feminine
High waist, so make sure to take that into account when selecting a top. Get something that can easily be tucked in. Construction is lovely, beautiful quality tailoring.

Beautifully constructed
Runs small, but I would not size up because I like the snug fit of this style (as long as you are not wearing anything bulky underneath). Great weight, construction. Versatile. Could be worn as part of outfit or as outdoor wear depending on weather. Mine did double duty.

Nice summer dress
Lovely pattern and silhouette. Would have preferred a little more length to up the sophistication level. Otherwise very nice.
Watercolor Bateau Dress

Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"

Great Pattern and Cut
Loved the pattern with its deep tones. The cut out on the shoulder made it a little different. An extra inch or two would have elevated its sophistication to the 5 star level. Still a winner.
Flow Play Sheath

Flattering Fit, Classic Look
I am a sucker for well-constructed dresses. This one qualifies. The fit is flattering, as well as the color blocking. The fabric is substantial but not too hot for summer. There is a lot of versatility in the garment...work to dinner and multi-seasonal. Enjoy!
Different Strokes Sheath

great fabric, print
Loved the longer length, the fabric and the pattern. Next time I would size up, however. While the dress runs "true to size" while standing in front of a mirror, it rides up a little when you walk. I am thinking a larger size could reduce the tendency for it to do this.

Professional yet on-trend
Conservative without being fuddy-duddy, this was a hit. The fit was flattering, loved the long length, and the colors were great. I know some others were surprised by the diamond part being more gray than white, but I think this is a more sophisticated palette. It is on my short-list to rent again. Enjoy, ladies!

Chic Comfort
This ran a little big in the hips. Next time, I will likely size down. The fact that I'm talking about next time says it all. Definitely a repeat item - chic, ladylike, modest, great length for tall women.

Did not wear
The pros: the weight of the fabric is very rich, tailoring lent to good construction that was flattering The cons: not for long-waisted women. The proportions dis not work so I could not wear. Also, the pattern was not as vivid as it appeared on the computer, which was a disappointment for me.

Clockwork Floral Print Dress
Yigal Azrouël
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 138lbs
Bust: 34D
Classic with a twist
Lovely, ladylike, and a bit of a twist on the standard sheath. The hemline is fabulous. Fits true to size. Would love to see in other colors. I paired with nude patent pumps, but it was a pink-based nude not a yellow-based nude, which I think is important with this shade. Deducted one star because it wrinkles if not placed in the garment bag just right, owing to unusual (but beautiful) hemline. I would wear again.

Tea Rose Side Slash Dress
Prabal Gurung
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 138lbs
Bust: 34D
Classic look
I love the retro cut if this dress, paying homage to Audrey Hepburn. The fabric was nice (though you need to plan your undergarments accordingly) and the color was striking. For me, the sizing ended up working out, but I deducted a star for the guesswork involved. This is not number sized, but rather comes in small, medium, large, etc. I'm normally a 4 or 6, so I had to choose between a small (2/4) or a medium (6/8). I was between sizes and went with the small. It worked for be but was a gamble. This doesn't matter so much for an Unlimited subscription, but if you are renting for a special occasion give this some thought.
Red French Collar Sheath
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"

Bust: 34D
Chic Comfort
I am typically a size 4 or 6, and I originally ordered this in a size 6, which I was unable to wear. I then ordered in a 4, and it was great. If you are on the cusp, size down. Best for tall women, because it is a lot of dress. My only complaint was that is was very wrinkled. Not the kind of wrinkled that comes from the fold of a bag, but all over. It required a pressing by me, so -1 star for that.

Striking neckline and color
The fit was true to size, though I would have preferred a little more in the length. However, that was a design choice and not a size issue. Would be perfect length on someone 5' 8"!!! Received many compliments.

Dorothy Dress
DSQUARED2
Size Worn: 44
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"

Feminine flair
This was a different silhouette than the fitted sheath type I usually go for, so it took a little getting used to, but that lasted about 10 minutes. Three compliments later, I couldn't help but feel special and ladylike in this dress. I wore it with a slip as a precaution for static cling, which someone else had mentioned in a review, and I had no problem whatsoever. I did not try it without the slip so I cannot comment on that. An inch longer would have made it ideal, but I'm tall, so that won't affect everyone. I would recommend pairing with sheer black hosiery as opposed to tights, since opaque tights would be a bit heavy looking for this filmy fabric. Just my opinion.

Back-up style
I didn't wear this dress. It was my second style back-up. My first choice dress was quite superior to this dress, so I am glad I had that availability. This dress lacked the structure I typically prefer in a garment.

Wore this to opening night at the ballet. The pictures do not do it justice. The jacquard skirt is a wonderful texture and has more detail than the photo would suggest. Loved.

Great Day-to-Night Dress
I wore this to work today with a short wool cape with leather toggles. Going out tonight and I intend to lose the cape. It looks very polished both ways. The fabric is wonderful - just stiff enough, and the leather is just soft enough, so together the result is a well-constructed piece. At 5' 10" I love the length of this, but could see it being a problem for those under 5' 8". Would wear again in a heartbeat.

Classic With a Twist
I am wearing this as I type this review. Ordered it for a work outfit, and it is perfect. Appropriate for the office given the modest length, and the long sleeves are great for the cold weather (and volatile HVAC system!) I feel like I've turned it up a notch in terms of style.

Great fit
The length was perfect on me, just skimming the knee, making it modest for work. At the same time, it was form fitting enough so that it did not look matronly. Easy to pair with a blouse and have a work-ready but on-trend outfit.
