Not for taller ladies!
The torso is about 2 inches too short for me. Otherwise, great fit and super cute.

Doesn't fit AT ALL
The neckline is basically open forcing you to wear a cami underneath, which spoils the look. The bottom half is weird, the ruffles are far more pronounced.

Love this!
I received so many compliments. Fits true to size, and best for a taller frame. Will rent again.

Cute work blouse!
This is more of a statement top. The ruffles really flare out, and it is flattering on an hourglass frame. It was a smidge short in the body, but I made it work.

Fun accessory.
This was fun. The gold is very bright, and didn't really match my other jewelry. It was also really heavy.

So pretty!
Very pretty top. A little boxy and ran short in the front, but looked great with high waisted skinny pants.

Slit went too high!
Silt was too high for me and made it not work appropriate. Great pattern though.

The pattern is unflattering.
The pattern is unflattering and makes it look like pajamas. I was unable to wear it.

Nope.
It was a weird fit. Super long, boxy, but then tight in the bust. I couldn't wear it to my event.

Cute summer work dress.
I loved the fabric and design of this dress; it was a little big in the waist and hips. It's conservative enough for work but could easily transition to brunch.

Classic dress, perfect for work. Slightly large throughout the hips.

Pretty rosy color!
This is a cute jacket. The color is very pretty. It is a strange fit -- a little right across the shoulders but wide across the bottom. It still looked great over a sheath dress.

Sadly, this is a miss.
The color is gorgeous -- the fit leaves much to be desired. It's about 1-2 sizes too big. I should have rented a 10/12.
Laurela Aqua Dress

Weird fit.
This dress is proportioned for someone under 5'7. It barely came below my hips.

This is a great dress!
This is a great versatile dress. I loved the red color, and it hugged my curves. I still wore Spanx underneath, just to make sure everything looked great at all times. I ended up buying this dress in black on the retailer's website.

Pretty for day!
This dress fit perfectly. With the ruffles, it looks super pretty when you move. I paired it with a navy blazer for a work-appropriate look. You could wear this for a lot of events.

This dress is really beautiful and feminine however it is far more plunging than it appears!

Super cute for Halloween outfit -- probably couldn't wear it elsewhere.
This dress has a "babydoll" cut -- not super flattering for bigger busts. I wore it with Day of the Dead makeup for Halloween. It came about three inches below my rear -- a little too short for my taste. Beautiful details and color. Would be fabulous for a slim frame.

This dress is just fantastic. I felt like the dancer emoji. Perfect for work and after-work drinks.
I felt overall it was a little big and I could have sized down, but the ruffles perfectly complimented my shape so I wasn't complaining. Amazing fabric, gorgeous color. I might have to buy it!

Dress wasn't wearable.
The dress hasn't been cleaned. It had a body odor to it; I couldn't wear it.

This dress is perfect.
It's romantic, flattering, and stunningly beautiful. I'd buy it if I could afford it, but it was perfect for my boyfriend's birthday dinner.

So bright!
I rented this originally in a Large, but that wasn't available so I rented an XL. It was big in the bust and the hips but it fit nicely. The colors are far brighter in person than online -- definitely hot pink and not coral, as I thought from the photo. Pretty dress and was very comfortable in the heat.
Caridee Popover Maxi
Lilly Pulitzer
Size Worn: XLR
Usual Size: 12

Confusing.
First, this dress is super tight. I'm normally a standard size 12, but I can sometimes wear a 10. This dress was skin-tight, and even with spanx, I held it in and didn't eat all night. Second, the arms are a little constricting -- the off-the-shoulder aspect looks great on, but it is not practical. Thirdly, the silhouette is not flattering. It kind of holds your arms down at your side, making you look super broad across the shoulder.

Show-stopper!
This dress is breathtakingly beautiful! The lace, print, and sheerness in the layering is exquisite. I loved wearing it, and received compliments all night long. Would definitely rent again if I don't end up buying it.

Perfect Mod-Bohemian-Preppy Mix!
I wore this under a navy blazer for the office -- it was a breath of fresh air! The fabric and details were impeccable, as was the fit. Shoshanna dresses seem to accommodate a curvier figure, which I really appreciated. Would definitely rent again.

I didn't love this.
I loved the top portion, which fit really well. This dress is not designed for anyone with curves -- the straight skirt hit awkwardly and the gold buttons really through me off. I ended up not wearing it as one of my Unlimited picks.

Fun dress for work!
This is a great dress! The cut and fit are impeccable. It is a tiny bit too short -- I wore it with tights to get away with it at work. I paired it with camel peep toe booties for a bridal shower. Super cute.

Too short for tall girls!
This dress is cute, a little boxy if you're busty. It was far too short to wear for me.

Perfect fit! Loved this dress!
I LOVED this dress. It is perfect for an hourglass frame. I wore it a work-holiday function. The sleeves, collar, everything was perfect. The length was fantastic on my 5'11 frame.

Super tight with NO stretch!
This dress is a great print, but I couldn't get into it. It was so tight across the bust and the hips. Size up 1-2 sizes.

Kate Middleton-esque style.
This dress fit like a glove. The waist nipped in at a perfect spot to give me a true hourglass shape. The skirt was a little tight, but not unflattering. The only thing I didn't love was how high the slit went in the back. I wore it with a statement necklace and nude pumps for a press conference at work.

Bohemian style with a flirty edge.
This dress is perfect. The pictures -- even mine -- do not do it justice. I do not want to take it off! The detailing along the sleeves, the A-line skirt, and the embroidered waistband (omg -- so perfect, nips in at the most flattering point), it is so on-point. I wore it with suede over-the-knee boots for a date, and then threw on a blazer, tights, and ankle booties for a casual Friday.
