Pretty sundress
I really liked this one. Fabric is full cotton and lined; pockets are nice. Fit well with a strapless bra. It’s a flattering cut. Was a tad more sundress-y than I expected from the photos.

Beautiful print, lightweight fabric
I’ve always liked block prints and batik, and I loved this skirt. Put it on and immediately went to check the site to see if I could afford to buy it (no, no I can’t). The price surprised me, actually, because it’s not lined, and no pockets; it’s a beautiful print but a pretty simple little skirt. Fabric is lightweight, good for warmer weather.

Didn’t love the details
Didn’t end up wearing this one, though it fit really well (including in the bust, and since I’m only an A cup, I imagine this would not fit someone more well endowed well). The non-functional buttons down the front didn’t really show up except to catch the eye as if there were a tear; the ruffles on the front felt too juvenile.

Pretty print; lots of fabric
I liked this one; didn’t love it. The pattern is lovely; the fabric is very light, with an underlayer that hit above the knee on me. It was longer than I expected, and I’m fairly tall. I also found, like others, it grew more voluminous as the day went on.

Fun to wear, if not quite as easy as expected
I loved this one. It’s a very flattering fit, and the fabric is gorgeous. It’s thick, so not the best choice for outdoor/warm weather, but laid nicely. Like others, I found the straps to be too long; I tacked them in the back and used fabric tape on my shoulders. I also found them slightly too wide for a normal bra, so wore a strapless bra.

Fit like the photos
Didn’t wear; it fit like the photos, just didn’t love it on. I felt like it was awkwardly between formal and more casual—combination of the poplin fabric and color and the length, which hit at my ankles. Ruched waist was a tad tight on me and would not have been comfortable sitting for a long time. Skirt is unlined and could be slightly see-through except I think there’s enough fabric for that not to be an issue. I’m wearing the most padded bra I own in the photos, if that helps you judge!

Lightweight
Didn’t wear; took a risk on the 12 when the 10 was recommended (but unavailable); 10 would have been the right size. Cream part of the pattern was more yellow than expected; I didn’t love it in person. Fabric is lightweight and skirt is unlined—this would be great for a summer outdoor event. Belt is sewn on, which I didn’t love. Pockets are a nice touch.

Fits like the photos
Lovely fabric and colors, and fit just like the pictures; just didn’t love on me. The back smocking gives it a good bit of stretch; I kind of wish I’d tried the next lower size. Fabric is nice, not scratchy at all, and fully lined (lining is sewed to the outer layer, which is nice), though that keeps it from being light and airy—I’d call it solidly mid-weight. Pockets and adjustable straps are great. Belt is sewn on in the back.

Compliments every day
I love this jacket—it’s been by far my favorite membership rental. It’s smooth, not too heavy, lays nice, goes with all kinds of stuff, and garners compliments all over the place. The recommended size (XL) was definitely right for me; fit well in the shoulders and length-wise. Too big in the bust, as is almost every other jacket that fits my shoulders; comes with the A-cup territory. Wish I could keep it!!

Brownish-red, didn’t love the details
Rented for holiday season, but the color is a bit too brown to be festive. I didn’t love the details; split cuff, ruffle (didn’t lay right, and I didn’t like it well enough to try to fix), gathers made it look weird since it was a tad tight in the shoulders (not an uncommon problem for me though).

Should have sized up
Didn’t wear it. I really liked the style of this one, but I definitely ordered the wrong size. The recommended size (LG) fit like a bodycon dress—*not* for me. I also found the fabric a tad bit scratchy, but I tend to be sensitive to textures.

Jacket-like fabric and boxy cut
I liked this one, but it’s not the kind of outfit to draw exclamations of adoration. The cut is very boxy, and the fabric is stiff—not uncomfortable, but doesn’t form to the body at all. It’s the kind of thing I would buy on super sale for lazy dressing days.

Lovely embroidery, heavy dress
I ended up not having a cocktail event to wear this to, but loved the embroidery so put on a blouse over and wore it to a work dinner event. As others have noted, it’s heavy; I could see the thin straps being less comfortable for someone who didn’t fill it out, but I found it true to size. The colors are more vibrant in person.

Gorgeous and flattering
Great dress. Fit was true to size, though I would have needed to tack the shoulder straps a bit (because A cup). The fabric is a medium weight, and the colors are nice; part of the gold pattern is metallic and part more matte, for a pretty dimensional effect. I’d thought I might not like the racer-back-y back, but it looked fine.

This is a lovely structured dress. Fit is true to size; would have needed the long (as the size guide recommends) to wear heels.

Slinky is not for me
The material is thin, for velvet, and almost slinky. Nice that the straps are adjustable, but there’s just not much to this dress.

Probably could have made it work, but I didn’t love it enough to try. As others have noted, the straps are very long. The pleating on the bodice was pretty.

Lovely dress, but not super-flattering on me
I've had my eye on this dress for months, and couldn't wait to wear it; when I tried it on though, I was just underwhelmed by the fit. (Would be stunning on someone with a different body shape, and perhaps skin tone.) Both the 10R and 12R fit fine, though both were a little short (I'm 5'9", but don't wear heels, so usually regular length works). The beading was lovely, but scratchy under the arms, and while the pattern covered minor bulges, etc., the overall shape just didn't do it for me. I ended up going with my backup dress.

Flattering and Comfortable
I loved this dress! Very flattering, and very comfortable. (Plus, pockets! Genius!) I was a little worried that the top would be too baggy, since I was in between sizes and went with the larger size, and am small-chested to begin with, but the drape of the fabric worked and made everything look nice. Just a note--the red is pink-toned, rather than deep red or orange-toned. Would definitely recommend!

Comfortable and pretty
First, DON'T EVER rent without a suitable backup option hanging in the closet!!! The "overnight" replacement option is only guaranteed to arrive by 8pm--too late for just about every any formal event I've ever attended. I was literally pulling out of the driveway in a cocktail dress on our way to a formal even when we saw the UPS truck down the street and I chased it down like a madwoman. All that said, this is a nice dress. It was much lighter-weight than I expected, so if you prefer a tighter fit I might actually recommend slimming undergarments. The 12 was roomy on me, which I expected, and was VERY comfortable. A very pretty dress--classy but still interesting.

Lovely colors, unique material
The size 10 (my normal size) fit, but with the pleats at the midsection, it accentuated my stomach, so I went with a size 12. The material is unusual for a dress, but was great for a fall wedding that was a little chilly. The length of the dress and stretch of the fabric made for a very comfortable evening.
