SO ITCHY!!!
Sensitive people beware. Worn for 30min until I couldn’t take the itchiness anymore. Had to switch tops before leaving for work.

Runs big for CeCe, bulky
This runs big for typical CeCe. I'm normally 16 and 14 fit perfect given my small chest (36A). The bulk of the fabric plus the pillowy cut made this not a flattering piece on my apple shape.

The white light colored stripe in the middle makes it unflattering in the midsection. Super comfy and warm though. Not itchy at all.

I’m 5’, 190lb, apple shaped, and small chested. I was pleasantly surprised by how incredibly flattering this dress was on me. I got compliments all day long! I will definitely rent this again and potentially purchase it once the price goes down enough for me to buy it.

Lightweight perfect for hot summers
Fits TTS to a bit large. The color is a little less vibrant in person than the photos. It wasn't super flattering on my apple shape but also wasn't so bad I didn't wear the item. I wore it to casual work Friday with white sneakers. I would have worn it more but it's starting to cool off and the dress is super breezy. Will rent again in summer.

Love this blouse in both colorways
This blouse is incredibly flattering. I’ve worn it backwards and with the buttons up the back as intended; both ways are beautiful. It’s easy to dress this blouse up for work with slacks or down for everyday with jeans. I might purchase this one.

Comfortable and flattering sundress
Received several compliments on how well this dress flattered my apple shape. The thin tie belt allowed me to raise the “waist” of this dress to where my natural waist is (short torso). Fully lined, so I didn’t have to worry about the dress clinging to my legs or my undergarments showing. The bodice is meant for someone with a fuller bust (I’m a 36A), but it was fine for my use (everyday wear). I would need to wear something underneath or pin the neckline closed to make this appropriate for the office.

Just ok
The blue check is a strange shade of navy blue. Against other navy blue, it looks black but looks blue against black. I had a difficult time styling this one. Looked ok with a white v-neck tshirt for a casual work day. Probably won’t rent again.

Flattering and easy to wear
Wore it once to brunch with flats and another time to a gardening swap and resource fair with white sneakers. Easy to dress up or down with footwear. The liner is a tad short, but still work appropriate thanks to the mesh dress’ length. Flattering even on my apple shape. Loved this one. Will rent again 100%.

Not for apple shaped girlies
It’s not clear from the pictures, but this dress has an extreme drop waist that is not flattering for anyone who has a tummy. The fit is weird. Small in the hips but enormous in the torso and arms. I’m used to wearing clothing with oversized sleeves; these were unruly and looked sloppy rather than stylish.

Like other reviewers mentioned, the arm holes are too large to wear the dress without something underneath or over. I didn’t find this to be a deal breaker. I wore it with a petal sleeve black blouse under and got compliments from several coworkers. Will rent again!

Versatile piece! True to department store sizing
Runs large if comparing to designer sizing, true to Nordstrom/Macy's women's "fast fashion" sizing. RTR suggests XL for my size and I did wear the XL a number of times before the L became available again. I'll be purchasing the Large. Sleeves are perfect for petites but might run short on average-tall heights. The fabric has a good amount of stretch and is perfect for pattern and color mixing. I'm wearing it for work today with bright red trousers, white and black striped t-shirt, and roses/skulls doc martins. I've worn it with jeans and band tee as well. Rented the skirt this time around and will be wearing with cream tie-neck blouse and black pumps. It's really versatile!

Super cute with jacket
I'm purchasing the jacket in Large but I'm still iffy on the skirt. The waist is TTS but the hips pull the pockets a little too much. I have a large bum, so I'm not surprised. I may purchase the skirt to have the set, but we'll see.

Wonderful for SoCal season transition
This is the perfect sweater for Southern California falls and springs. I'm tempted to purchase for myself. It's a cotton blend, so don't expect tremendous heat. I found it perfect for the office and WFH. The cashmere makes the cotton ever so soft without adding bulk. I wore as is and with base layer; is thin enough to wear under a coat if needed. If this was machine washable, I would have purchased in a heartbeat. I typically wear 12-14 bottoms and 10-12 tops; I rented the XL for an oversized look (it was perfect), will rent a L next time to see if I like a fitted look better.

Not great for my apply shape
I'm a 12/14 apple and sized down to a 10 based on the reviews about the chest area. The top was still too big and the bottom hugged my tummy in a not-so-cute way. I'm glad I tried something way outside my comfort zone but wouldn't rent/wear this style again.

Rented twice I loved it so much!
FARM is my new favorite brand and this jumpsuit did not disappoint. Rented the Large first based on measurements, but it felt too oversized. I renturned and rented again in a Medium and the fit was nearly perfect. I'm a size 12/14 apple shape, so there was a little bit of pulling at the buttons near the waist, but I still wore the heck out of this. My 18yo tried to talk me into buying it because I wore it so much. I may rent again in the fall if RTR doesn't add more of FARM's line. I would wear every single FARM jumpsuit if they had them. I received so many compliments, especially when I wore it to the World Famous I-Bar (Naval Aviator bar from Top Gun).

Strange fit. Didn't wear.
This sweater lays oddly. The torso is short and boxy, the sleeves extra long comparitively, and the slit was not at all flattering. Sized down from L to M after reading reviews but it wasn't cute. Didn't wear.

Extremely flattering for my size 14 apple shape!
It's difficult finding form fitting dresses that are flattering for a small-chested apple-shape. This dress was fire! It hugged all the right curves (hello booty!) and hid my midsection flawlessly. The dress I received did have the liner ripped at the gathering site, but this is the only reason the dress fit my ample booty. Had the rip not existed, this dress would not have made it over my rear! Overall, extremely satisfied with this dress. I loved that I was able to adjust the length with the cinching cords. I had mine up pretty high for my Valentine's Date.
