New meaning to oversized
While I expected the shirt to be oversized, this was beyond exaggerated. Not only wide, it was incredibly long too. It also wasn't as sheer as I expected. I ended up not wearing it

Great skirt, huge slit
Loved this skirt- very comfortable and flattering- only issue was when you sit it opens pretty wide!

Polished and fun
I absolutely loved this blazer! Definitely boxy, but part of its charm - I got more compliments than I could count wearing it (paired with a white t, black leather joggers and white sneakers)

Poolside to WFH
I lovedddd this romper. The material had some heft so it hangs well but I wasn't too hot wearing it poolside on a 90 degree day. I got the large because I'm 5 months pregnant and needed room for my growing bump but otherwise the medium would have been great. I'm 5'7 - so not super tall but do struggle w romper length sometimes- even w the bump it didn't ride up. Definitely give it a try :)

Love this vest!
I really liked this piece! It's well made and lays quite nicely. It really elevated a simple outfit!

Who knew a leopard denim jumpsuit could be a staple!?
This was the wardrobe staple I didn't know I needed. Comfortable, cool, and baggy but not unflattering- it was the perfect throw on and go outfit. Cannot say enough good things about it. I can't wait to rent it again.

Easy Basic
This easy to wear closet staple fit true to size and was super comfy. I often find exaggerated arms a bit hit or miss (with some making me look like a line backer- and not a fashionable one) but there were great (probably because they start below the shoulder. Super cute- excited to rent again to try with other bottoms :)

Romantic Stunner
I was obsessed with this dress the moment I saw it (and may or may not have purchased something I had at home to make room for it right away) It is truly beautiful and well made. Super comfortable and wore well as I walked around all day on vacation. It is a slightly thicker fabric and there is a LOT of it. I think I would size down next time - i have a larger chest so I get nervous with dresses with buttons but I definitely had room in this.

From backyard BBQs, to work, to rooftops
I absolutely loved this dress! It is well made, super flattering and just so cool! The bra situation is an interesting one. I want to believe that there is a regular bra or a strapless that can be worn with this.... but I couldn't find one. I ended up wearing a nubra but if you size down enough you may be able to get away with none. I think it's super versatile too! I wore it to a bbq party for my father and also to work (with a cropped tee over it) and then (without tee) to a rooftop.

Effortlessly cool
I loved this romper. It wasn't too difficult to put on and looks great. I wore the medium and it fit well, but it was a tad short in the torso- perfect on the legs tho. If you have a longer torso it may not be the most comfortable thing in the world.

Comfy and Casual
I rented this sweatshirt just to wear around during a weekend with friends. It was cute and fairly comfy. I grabbed the large because it was all they had in store but it's fairly oversized (but not long)- fabric was a bit stiffer than I expected.

Fine, but nothing special
I found this dress to be middle of the road. It looked fine on, but it wasn't anything special. It had cut-outs and slits, but didn't feel sexy. And yet it's long with a high neck and you can't wear it to work. I was also really thrown by the fabric. It's a houndstooth pattern but the fabric is slick - now I was wearing it in late spring so definitely didn't want or expect a heavy houndstooth but felt it was still a bit odd. Overall the fit was a bit on the small side. I normally wear a medium but only the large was available and after wearing the large I'm not sure the medium would have been ok. The fit on my butt wasnt great - I would expect a dress like this to hug my body, but instead the fabric pooled a bit.

Such a unique dress!
I really liked this dress. It takes a minute to figure out how to style, but when you get it it's totally worth it- plus the wrap is fairly versatile so you can play around with styling and figure out what works for your body. And like other Tome wrap dresses I've worn before, it looks like an impossible amount of fabric when you first put it on that somehow just works (although if you're between sizes - definitely size down!) The dress is a shirt dress material and I found it to be on the see-through side- but nothing nude underwear and a nude tank couldn't fix (or a slip).

Beautifully made
This shirt is really beautifully made! I do think it ran on the smaller side- it's is a fairly short crop and flows throughout except for the waist. I liked how while it was sheer throughout there was paneling in the chest area. I wore it with high waisted jeans for a baby shower with nothing underneath. I plan to wear it with a nude tank and jeans for work. Very cool and different :)

Easy, comfortable, cute
I rented this for a family trip to Amsterdam where the weather was going to be in the 60s. This dress was amazing! It was perfect for the weather, looked stylish without having to travel with anything to add to it and got tons compliments to boot. Also POCKETS. Another wearer noted that they thought it would be too much fabric but when worn on the tightest belt loop it was fine- definitely agree! I was afraid it would buckle but it ended up folding over nicely. I could have sized down tho- I have a large chest so get nervous sizing down when buttons are involved but I think it would have been fine. The only thing to watch is the wrap's slit- it can open fully in a breeze. I think a well placed safety pin would solve the issue but I ended up holding it a bit while I walked around to keep it together.

Didn't want to take this off (and almost couldn't!)
I absolutely loved this dress. It is SO well made, flattering with the cinched waist and comfortable with the soft fabric. Only issue is that it had a VERY sticky zipper that was hard to pull up past the extra material at the waist- needed help getting it both on and off. Roomy in the bust which is great because buttons can pose a problem for bigger chests - I wore this in a US 8 and I'm a 34E Also so many compliments!

While I'm not loving how this dress photographed, it was really nice on! It was quite comfortable and perfect for a Sunday afternoon wedding. Would definitely recommend!

Hot dress! Both in looks and feeling.
I loveeee this dress. It fits well and is very soft. I got a ton of compliments! Just note that you will sweat- there is nothing breathable about this.

Cool or kitsch?
I ended up really liking this easy tunic- I paired it with leather-like leggings and a chunky black boots and ended up getting tons of compliments. Part of me thought that it looked a bit older and wasn't 100% fitting for me but it was super comfy and easy to wear!!

Gorgeous, comfy, cool
I absolutely loved this sweater. I wore it with high waisted wide legged jeans for shopping and over a hunter green dress with a Peter Pan collar for work (pictured) I cannot stress how warm it is. The sleeves make coats a bit tricky but I ended up not needing one because it did the trick on its own (on a fairly brisk fall NYC day)

Coat so good you'll never want to take it off
I absolutely love this coat. The classic color and style plus the on-trend collar makes it a season staple. I never want to hang onto an item because I LOVE getting new shipments every week, but this coat is worth taking up a spot for a few weeks. Like another view owner said the collar is a tad itchy but totally worth it ha. It's not incredible warm but should be good through the fall!

The perfect dressed up basic
I loveee these pants. When you hear "leather culottes" you don't think "easy to wear" but these so are! Comfortable, flattering and very stylish- these pants can easily be dressed up or down. I think next time I would try to size down- but overall I think they are true to size. Will definitely rent again!!!

Easy to wear but nothing special
I'm not sure that I had the highest expectations for this dress - which is good because it would not have lived up to them. Like some other people commented- the dress rubs very large on top. I am a 34E and the top draped open - while it was nothing a pin couldn't solve it was just a bit odd. The dress itself was just fine- super easy to wear, cute innocuous pattern- but nothing special

Sexy, yet work appropriate?
I loveddd this dress. It was such an interesting shape but really flattering that made me feel professional but also a bit sexy (you know... in that powerful way!) would definitely rent again (and again and again)

Compliments galore :)
I LOVED this dress. I wore it to work and then threw it on for the playground on the weekend. While the picture doesn't show the whole story I thought it did a great job showing how versatile it is. I looks polished with a pair of blush heels at the office and then was able to run around with my daughter at the park in a pair of flats. Super flattering shape! I think I could have gone a size down and still loved it tho!

Beautifully versatile
I wore this beauty for work with a pair of blush mules and got tons of compliments on it- but could easily be work with straps sandals for an event. I picked it up in store and they only had the 10 but looking forward to trying the 6 or 8 because I think it will look even better!

Versatile Beauty
I LOVED this skirt. I wore it a bunch of times in the 2+ weeks that I had it. From work to dinner with friends to even a trip to the park with my daughter- I felt this skirt was super versatile. Wear either with a tucked in right shirt or a relatively cropped crop top- waist skimming crops worked for work but anything longer and you end up looking frumpy because you miss the cinched waist :)

Beautiful and well made
I could not wait for this shirt to become available and it didn't disappoint- so well made and absolutely beautiful. It is boxy but it hung beautifully. I wore an 8 but would have been comfortable in a 6 or even a 4.

This sweatshirt fit true to size. I know it was supposed to be cropped but I found it a bit mid length. I really wanted it to be a bit shorter or a bit longer- but was great over a chilly MDW

I loved this dress- but just know it runs on the small size. worked great with a pair of white sneakers and a denim jacket for work. The fabric does get super wrinkly tho!

Almost great!
This is a great work dress! Good length, relaxed fit- I got a bunch of compliments on it. Does run big though One big complaint : the fact that the inside of the dress is white is super disappointing. Every time I moved my arms you would see a flash of white from inside the sleeve- it madd the dress feel cheaper than it was

Both form and function
This dress fit like a dream and was insanely comfortable (you can wear a strapless with one strap if you choose!) i loved how the dress flowed :) From the pictures i thought the dress/fabric would be more structured but it was actually super silky and flowy- perfect for the weddig i wore it to in Mexico

A dress I couldn't love more and customer service that really can't be beat.
This dress fit like a glove. It's curve hugging while still being beautifully elegant. I'm often skeptical of dresses where you don't wear a bra (especially with my bust size) but this dress is so well made it wasn't an issue. I had to order the long because rtr was out of regulars but I am so glad I got it- I'm 5'6" but with 3 inch heels the length was perfect. Only con of this dress was the constant worry if someone stepping on the train- but the train is so elegant so totally worth it!
