Perfect for a specific use case, but it’s a lot
I needed a colorful, bright, patterned formal dress for a wedding. It was also 50 degrees and windy on said wedding day, and I am currently postpartum so I needed something I could wear a real bra with (to ease pumping) + helped me not be self-conscious of my extra few lbs. This dress was overall completely perfect for the occasion as a result, and it fit nicely (if anything, it was a little bit big in both the shoulders and the waist). However…it’s not something I otherwise would have rented. Both my husband and my three year old daughter told me it was ugly, and I was generally inclined to agree. So make sure this is totally your vibe if you rent it.

Not for hourglasses
This was cute in theory and I wore it for a day, but it was not flattering on my hourglass figure. Very boxy throughout, yet also somehow pulling at the bust buttons even though it felt like it had tons of room. Made me feel “blocky” up and down.

Love these work pants
It’s hard to love work trousers, but I loved these! Super comfy yet very professional and a color that is just interesting enough to be fun. Run large; I wore a 10 at 157lbs recently postpartum and had some room to spare, vs. I’m usually a 10 at 150lbs. Length was perfect on me to work with either flats (justttt off the floor) or a lower heel.

Really want to buy these
These are fantastic. I’m currently 159lbs, 2 months postpartum, and these are the first pair of “real jeans” that I’ve been happy with. Totally hold in my mom pooch and are comfy yet don’t stretch out. My butt looks perhaps ever so slightly perky than some of my other favorite jeans, but I think that’s due to the cut - which is modern without feeling silly wide. Great length on me too. Long enough I can wear a low heel if I want, but not too long for flats (although it’s close). Would buy if cheaper and if I weren’t still losing some weight.

Postpartum interview success
Needed a base layer under a blazer while 6 weeks postpartum, when my normal work clothes don’t fit yet. In one size up from my usual (albeit black halo does run small), this was perfect. I felt pulled together and appropriately attired with no weird pulling. On its own it showed more of a stomach bulge than I’d want, but under a blazer it was great.

Fine, weird length on me
Wore these 7 weeks postpartum (currently 160lbs) since my regular jeans don’t fit yet. They were comfortable and held me in well, but did nothing for my butt — it just looked kind of blob-y and flattish. They were also a weird length just above my ankles. Wouldn’t rent again but fine for a day.

A surprising favorite
I had no idea what I would think of these, but with (maternity) jeans postpartum this made me feel incredibly put together despite having a newborn. Some other mom couldn’t stop saying how impressed she was that I looked composed already hah. Heavy but comfy and cute, and very nursing friendly. Had a pink bra underneath that you could see a little but I didn’t mind. Would rent again in a smaller size when not immediately postpartum.

Cute for postpartum!
This was one of the first “almost real clothes” I wore postpartum and loved them. Cute, comfy, surprisingly flattering. I was around 170lbs when I wore these and loved them. A little cropped on me.

Great for postpartum
Wore this in 1-2 sizes larger than usual at a few weeks postpartum and loved it. Comfy, great for nursing, but felt way more pulled together than lounge clothes. Might buy it in a smaller size if it washes well.

Super cozy, runs big
Wore this at 29 weeks pregnant for my baby moon at a wellness resort, where the temperature tended to drop at night. It was the perfect cozy-yet-cute piece for the occasion! Did not want to send it back, but the sleeves / shoulders were pretty big on me even at this point of pregnancy so I’m not sure I would wear it post baby.

Loved this for work while pregnant
I’m 30 weeks pregnant and needed to look pulled together for a meeting on a freezing day. Wore it with a black shirt underneath, black maternity work pants, and a nice necklace and I felt both appropriately professional and still comfortable. Tempted to keep this one.

Didn’t work for formal but good with a jacket
I’m 18w pregnant with a big bump, and initially rented this for a BTO wedding option. It didn’t work for me for that, as the arm holes fell awkwardly low and the overall look was sloppy vs sleek. I think a smaller size would have been better as it had tons of stretch. However, I ended up wearing it for an interview with a blazer, and it was perfect (+comfy!) for that.

Fine, not really my style
This was very light and comfy without being see-through, and perfect for work. However, the pattern was just kind of loud / old in person in my opinion. It also made my butt look huge. Otherwise, a bit hard to gauge the fit as I’m 15w pregnant (161 lbs, mostly in my belly and chest)— I rented it one size up but I was definitely getting to the limits of making it work.

This is really pretty!
Loved this and found it very lightweight on a hot day. Colors could work in summer or fall and were fun but professional. Note it runs big; I am 12w pregnant with a notable small bump / +8lbs and this was a little big.

Cute for work or play
The first time I wore this out to dinner, I wasn’t sure if it looked a little frumpy on top, but I was much more into it when I wore it for work with heels the second time. Really lightweight but not see through, great for a summer office day. Nicely hid my 12w pregnancy little bump. Would definitely have worn the 8 if not pregnant (and may have even preferred it now).

Comfy, great for early pregnancy or nursing, and cute
While a little boxier than I usually go for when not pregnant, this was fantastic for late first trimester with a few extra lbs on a really hot day. The bright color was so fun and the whole thing was very comfy-cute/

I’ve literally rented these three times in a row
I’m in early pregnancy and my regular shorts won’t quite button, but I’m not round enough for maternity yet. These are insanely perfect for the summer for this purpose. They’re lightweight, comfy, cute, long enough, and they have grown with me nicely. They do wrinkle after 2-3 wears, hence why I’ve been re-renting them, but they’re a great basic overall.

Beautiful dress, some fit risks
I had previously rented this in the black in the 10, and the 8 was much better even though I’m now 10w pregnant and 7lbs heavier than usual. It looks beautiful, is super comfortable, and it was super flattering hiding my small bump. That said, it loosens a lot as you wear it, raising major wardrobe malfunction risks. I ultimately wore it with a tank underneath and felt it was great (as long as there were no wind gusts!), but would be too nervous to wear it on its own.

Low key obsessed with this skirt
It’s definitely “a lot”, but paired with a more muted tee, I LOVED this skirt for a day I needed to feel powerful and confident at work. It has such great shape, it’s super lightweight and comfy (but not see through), and it’s just so fun. I’m also pregnant and starting to show, and in one size up from my usual it completely camouflaged that when I wasn’t ready to tell all my coworkers yet.

Too small and totally see through
Maybe something happened to the one I got, but it was completely unwearable. The bottom half was totally see through in any mild light. It was too short and tight on the chest too, plus the sleeves were tight and short. Did not wear.

Decent idea but not flattering
Combo of the horizontal stripes and the shirt part breaking in a weird spot made this not particularly flattering on me. It was fine enough for a day at work, but looked so much cuter on the hanger. Was also fairly big, which didn’t help. Might rent for early pregnancy if trying to hide as I think the style would be good for that.

Fit nicely but not my style
I sized up based on reviews and that was the right decision; the 10 fit perfectly. The silky fabric felt incredibly luxurious and the tailoring likewise seemed expensive. However, I found it too long for me and just too much dress that it felt frumpy. I love a good midi, but this has just 3 too many inches and combined with the bow it felt too old.

Very sharp, but runs small
Loved that this was a conservative work appropriate blazer that still had a bit of interest and was easy to match with navy and tan. It is slim fitting, not oversized, and hit roughly in the middle of my butt. However, be aware it runs small in the shoulders — I’m almost always an 8 or even a 6 in blazers, and think the 10 would have been more comfortable here. Sleeves were also borderline too short.

These were super cool and comfortable. My husband really liked them on me too, even though he usually scoffs at anything more trendy. Run really big — I’m almost always a 10 in pants and the 8 had room to spare in these.

Nothing special
I made this work tucked in with a belt and dress pants, but was underwhelmed with this one. Top buttons didn’t close, so it felt a little “look at my boobs!” for work given that it was also fairly tight through the top. Sleeves were stiff and less cute in person.

Cute enough but imperfect fit
I wanted to love this, but the fit was a little off on me. The top was way too open and needed a tank underneath, but it was also a smidge too tight through my hips. It was also too short on me without tights, but I expected that. I wore it with a black tank and thick black tights to a baby shower, which worked, but then the cute open back was covered in black. Ultimately wouldn’t rent it again.

LOVED this on me because it fit perfectly
This was a beautiful and stylish work outfit on me; the skirt was cool without being too much and the sweater portion was beautiful and incredibly flattering. I wish I had a regular sweater than fit as well as this top did! That said, I think the dress only will look good if it fits you perfectly, as it did for me as an above-average height hourglass. Would not recommend for anyone shorter than me.

It had potential but just didn’t love it
With the bra straps in place, this fit nicely, although it definitely would have fallen off the shoulders without the straps. If anything it was a little on the roomy side. However, just something about it wasn’t my favorite — it wasn’t that slimming, perhaps?
