Nice, but not for me
Shirt looked as expected, but I didn't find it totally flattering for my figure. True white, nice material, felt like a quality piece. I think it runs true to size (I am 5'5", 118 lbs and the XS fit just snug at the elastic waistband). However, it's overall amount of fabric overhwhelmed me. Plenty of room for large busts, and does not show too much cleavage, but would work best for those with very small waists/larger hips. May also be better for taller, wispy types and could look great with a belt.

Great skirt, runs big
Loved the idea of pair this skirt with a sleek black turtleneck and boots for a casual date night. Read the other reviews - at 5'5" 118, I am a size 2, but carry my weight in my chest and stomach, so even 26s can be a little snug sometimes. I got the 26, and definitely should have gotten the 25. It's a cute brown cordoroy with a raw edge, great staple piece. Looking forward to renting this in the right size!

Oversized and stylish
Loved this sweater - probably wore it 6 times. Lovely heavy knit, not scratchy, made me feel like a "cool girl." The XS fit perfectly - looks oversized without making you look massive. As others mentioned, it has a dolman sleeve so is a bit tough with coats. I found the neck on the XS to be a bit funky (it kept twisting at a weird angle at the seam) and the sweater looked fairly worn / had seen better days. If it were newer in better condition, would have given it 5 stars, or more likely, bought it.

Exactly as pictured
Rented this for my husband's black tie optional holiday party. It fit true to size, and given that the entire dress is very stretchy, was great for dancing/comfort. I could have worn a standard strapless a bra with this, but opted for a sticky bra to de emphasize my bust. I would have preferred it to be an inch or two longer (I like zero shoe to be seen!) but R was a good length with 3 in heels.

Chill hoodie
Got this light hoodie for holiday travel through the Pacific Northwest and cottage country to wear under my puffer coat with black leggings. It runs true to size, though it's much more thin and fitted versus large and comfy. I found the neck to come up slightly too high, so I think I would have preferred a size up from an XS to a S (if you are between sizes size up).

Perfect fit for a casual holiday party!
I paired it with black tights and boots. Very thin black trim at the neck and end of sleeves. Material is heavier (in a good way!), and length is to the knee. I felt this was really cute and flattering.

Wore this wine tasting in Greece and it was perfect!
I love this romper! Very on trend with the off the shoulder style. I agree with others that it runs quite large, but it seems to be the style (I wore a S and am a size 4, but could have easily fit a XS). You cannot wear this without a belt as it is very very loose/boxy but looks great one cinched in. I used my own belt for a more pulled together look, the belt that comes with it is denim on denim. Sleeves ran a bit long. Great for curvy girls as it has plenty of room.

Nice dress, not a standout
Rented this dress through Unlimited with hopes to wear to a play. Like other reviewers stated, this runs true to size (I typically have to size up in this brand). It didn't have the wow/sexy factor I was looking for, but fit nicely and was great quality. I think it read more as a work sheath dress to me, so didn't end up wearing. Would look great for a work day to night transition if you have after works drink or an event.

Gorgeous coat!
I typically wear between a 2 and 4 and the 36 fit great. The sleeves/shoulders ran a bit on the tighter side, so if you are planning to wear a heavier sweater underneath I'd size up. It's a good coat for 40 degree weather (so spring/fall). The fit of the coat is a bit on the boxy side, so you do need the belt to cinch and define the waist. It has a cool military vibe and the leather details give it a more luxurious feel. I rented through Unlimited and only returned as I needed the space to rent a gown for an event, will be renting again ASAP and holding onto for awhile.

Really loved this shirt!
Looks just like it does on the model, a great shirt that can be dressed up or down. I wore a size S which fit great, and this shirt has a lot of stretch/isn't at all constricting but still has structure (so good if you are a bit fuller on top (I'm a 30F UK). The black and white looks interesting and the fabric is a bit thicker/textured. I did end up wearing with a strapless bra as the top comes in just slightly too narrow for a full bra, so something to consider.

Beautiful dress, definitely tight!
I ordered this dress in an XS knowing full well I needed a S. I'm 5'5", 120 lbs, 35-26-36 ( 30F UK sized bra). If you are a similar size, get the small! Zipping it up took a significant amount of effort but once in I felt fine and looked great. One gripe is that the white is a bit dingy (when I pulled it out of the bag I was wearing a white shirt and this appeared less white). So if you were planning to match with a white wrap or anything like that, don't.

Great fit and look
I'm 5'4" and 120 lbs (35-26-36) and this fit like a glove. A few things to know: the fit is more bodycon and the fabric is on the casual side. Once I put it on however it looked perfect for work to happy hour. The way it lays accentuates curves. There is no zipper so you have to pull it overhead which isn't my favorite, but it's all stretch. It's great if you are looking for a lightweight easy to wear everyday work dress that would looks fantastic for drinks after.

Pretty but odd fit for me
I got this for a trip to Miami and was really hoping it would work out. It's a beautiful dress and fit true to size, but the neckline didn't work for me. It scoops very very low all the way from the shoulders (you won't be able to wear a bra) but with the heaviness of the sequins I wanted some structure for my chest. The waist and hips fit perfectly. The sleeves were a bit too long and not as fitted as I would have preferred. It's a great dress but just for a different body shape than me.
