Elegant and Quality - Tiny bit Big
Beautiful dress, chain detail is heavy and not cheap feeling. Good length. I would have liked if the waist was ever so slightly more brought in for a flattering fit, but given that I was wearing it to a work event I was ok having a slightly less "womanly" cut. Still very classy and elegant.

Fine, just didn't think it was that cute and like most wrap dresses was hard to keep shut over a non-large chest.

Comfortable, classy, but not the most flattering
I would have preferred a bit more form fitting in the waist, but the bigger issue was that the space around the armpits/shoulders were too large (like, the armpit inseam if that makes sense?) the material is thick and stretchy which was very comfortable, but found the overall bodice impression eas bulkier than I am. On the plus side though - POCKETS!!

Just okay
Did not find flattering - the material is thick and made my waist/ribs look bigger even though it was form fitting. The neckline is so wide and the shoulder material is so heavy that the puffy shoulders kept falling down, and I couldn't really wear a bra. Just altogether didn't feel sexy or comfortable (backed up by the fact that I didn't take any pictures).

Liked it!
Nice material that unlike many light work-ish pants, did not get terribly wrinkly. Fit well throughout and we very comfortable, but found them to be a bit unflattering throughout the crotch/hip area.

Liked it!
Loved this look overall, though think it would fit a slightly shorter person better. The waist hit a bit too high so I found myself trying to pull it down all night both for comfort and to have the definition/cinch at the right spot.

Just okay
Bit stretched and square. Doesn't really mold to your body and felt the neckline just oddly missed the mark on being flattering the way a square neck normally is on me (maybe cut up a bit too high?)

Beautiful flattering cut, but material is a bit more casual so feels a bit lost as to the right event in terms of formality.

Super Dowdy. Don't get the hype.
This shirt was dowdy and unflattering. It's long, with a lot of material waist down due to the ruffle and loose shape. Looked ok tucked into a pencil skirt that was appropriately snug at the waist, but still managed to be unflattering. Might be cuter on someone flatter chested since the ruffles do add some oomph in that area.

Nice Quality; Rise and Fit are Meh
Fit well through the hips, length was good, and enjoyed the zipper both for a touch of edge and versatility of fit. However, the skirt was an awkward and not particularly flattering mid-rise on me, and big at the waist at that. Didn't end up wearing since something I wanted more became available - otherwise would have work to work just fine as a basic, but wouldn't be jumping at the chance to rent again.

Fun for Fall
Loved this sweater top - felt chic and cozy at the same time. As another reviewer noted, the black stripe is sparkly, but not overly so, and I enjoyed the touch to fancy-up what otherwise could be frumpier. It is cropped, so I needed to wear with a higher waisted skirt (and skin still showed if I raised my arms). Overall, would happily rent again.

Adorable, Perfect Fit, POCKETS!
This dress has everything you could want in a casual summer dress. It fits like a glove in the bodice, with a flattering flare and length. Could dress up or down, and has pockets! Material is also reasonably cool and lends a bit of structure, but does wrinkle some.

Wanted to Like....
I really wanted to like this. It's boxy and masculine, but not in as chic a way as I would have liked. Could have been tailored a bit more narrowly. Didn't hate it, but wouldn't wear again. Also wrinkled easily, but not surprising for a shirt of this material (feels like a suit shirt).

Saggy Diaper
These were very unflattering - lots of extra room in the waist, inseam, and general butt and upper thigh area, while being weirdly fitted below. The material was nice and comfy enough, but would not rent again.

Unique and Elegant
A little on the large side of TTS. Nice thick material - sleeves can get in the way as others have mentioned, but worth it for the unique touch. Wore both to work and a farewell party for a colleague afterward - would rent again.

Unexpected Love
This top was super cute and super comfortable. A little awkward to put on (the zipper is only partway, so you have to pull over your head), but it's very well constructed, and a nice material. I would say it fits true to size, but is a little looser of a fit intentionally. One cool feature - despite being a crop, when I sat down, it covered some of the stomach rolls :-p I'm ultimately not sure how versatile it is, but looking forward to renting again.

Meh. Kinda fun but not flattering.
These were large in the waist, though not loose enough in the legs that sizing down would like improve things much. The sequin is fun, and I did like them as part of this particular ensemble as a fun alternative to a skirt in summer for a trendy dinner. That said, I pretty much hated the shorts with the blazer off - made my waist look bigger, and the proportions weren't flattering even on longer legs.

Fun, But Nothing Special
These fit true to size (snug at first but stretchy, so a little loose by the end of the day). They're thin, typical women's stretch denim, so I wasn't particularly impressed by the fit or construction. The dip dye bottoms are cute, but can't say I'll really remember this one a few months from now.

Felt flirty but sophisticated; A little bulky
I loved how this looked and felt, with a few caveats. It's high quality fabric, heavy construction, and a lovely pale pink. However, it was a little looser than I would have liked, and the lining tended to bunch a lot around where the waist cinches. This was actually visible at the waist and affected the draping in an awkward bulky way. That said, I did feel great in it and would consider renting again.

Cute but Limited
Cute and different (almost evokes a sort of 1930s thing), comfortable, and has pockets that fit more than just your fingers! I really liked the pleating, and the blue/black color is versatile. I would note that they are unlined and given the thin material, did tend to wrinkle over the course of the day. The side zip closure was also prone to sticking at the waistband. My main hang up at the end of the day is that they are somewhat restricted from a style perspective, which isn't ideal for a work pant. Given the wide leg and pleating on the hips, I found that they were only flattering when worn with a pretty closely tailored top and stilettos, and pinstripes don't go with everything. As a result, they sat in my closet awhile before I wore them. I may rent again when I want to wear these specific pants with something, but I did not find them to be the type of rental you rotate through your regular work wardrobe.

Cute and comfortable - liner shows
I loved the look of this dress. It fits close to the body but is not tight or restrictive at all (though there was a little room around the waist so I found wearing a belt caused some fabric cinching that didn't work for me). I love the sleeve and neckline detail - I felt feminine but powerful. I would say that the material was a bit thinner than expected, but it wouldn't stop me from renting again. My only real issue with this dress was that the pink liner was consistently showing slightly at the bottom (and moreso sitting down). I don't think it was overly conspicuous, but should be considered in conservative environments.

Cute and Colorful for Cold Months!
This is a great little sweater. It's very soft, and the colors are neutral enough to coordinate easily, but fun enough to make normally frumpy or serious sweater weather more exciting. It's both oversized and somewhat cropped, which won't work for everyone, but since it's not particularly structured and is lighter weight, I found that it still laid against my body shape and wasn't at all unflattering. It's not overly warm given how loose it is, but it'll do in a pinch. Will definitely wear again.

Not Quite for Work
When I first tried these on, I thought I would likely return without wearing. They are quite tight from the thigh all the way through the calf, but weirdly loose in the waist. Though very soft, they don't feel like an expensive garment. Ultimately, I did wear them to work but was very conscious the whole time that they seem far too tight for the office (I asked a few friends who agreed that, though not egregious, they probably were not the most appropriate). I will say they did grow on me over the course of the day (the zipper detail is definitely unique, the pattern makes it less bland than much work wear and they do effectively feel like comfy thick leggings), but ultimately I probably would not wear a second time.
