Great pattern, kind of strange cut
This definitely required a belt and safety pins on my body, and even then it wasn't super-flattering. I think it runs a whole size large. Still, the pattern was pretty and the v-neck and button-up slit (left mostly unbuttoned in this photo) were sexy and flattering on an otherwise sack of a dress.
Jackie Knot Front Dress
Prabal Gurung
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 6"
Bust: 36D
So perfect that I bought it!
I rented this to take to Sundance and then kept it for a month or so before finally buying it. I was wearing it several times a week, and just couldn't let it go. It's surprisingly versatile for such a glamorous coat...I've worn it with everything from an evening gown to leggings and a plaid shirt. I've never had so many people compliment a coat (or ask if they could touch it).
Faux Fur Delish Jacket
Unreal Fur
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 6"
Bust: 34D
Flattering, comfortable, glamorous
I wore this on stage at the sundance film festival. The only size left was a 2L, but at a size 8/10, I made it work even though it was a little tight and long. Gold thread catches the light nicely.
Metallic Nixon Gown

Size Worn: 2L
Usual Size: 8

Bust: 34D
Great blank canvas for work or play
Listen to the reviews that say this dress runs large. I'm an 8-10 with a tummy and the medium fits perfectly. It disguises my chunk whilst looking elegant and modern. Without jewelry would probably look like a hospital gown. I plan on wearing it this weekend with open-toed booties, but have been wearing it causally with silver Birkenstocks. I almost took off a star since my rental has a couple of spots, but you can only see them in a certain light. Doesn't wrinkle much, even after sitting. I knew I would get compliments from women, but was surprised that my boyfriend also gave an unsolicited compliment. Win!
White Cap Sleeve Popover Dress
VINCE.
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 6"
Bust: 34D
Flattering, professional and fun
I've rented this DVF dress previously, and each time, I've received all kinds of compliments. It definitely requires a tank top, in my opinion, as well as some fashion tape or pins to make it work, but once you get it right, it's perfect. If it weren't for the high price, I'd already own it. Definitely one of the pieces that has made my unlimited subscription worthwhile!
Red Jewel Mikado Wrap Dress
Diane von Furstenberg
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 6"
Bust: 34D
Perfect, easy fit. Seriously considering buying it
This is such a simple dress, but it's comfortable, flattering, and can be dressed up or down for various occasions. I'm keeping this one for a while, and if it weren't so expensive, I'd already own it! For silk, it stays relatively unwrinkled, and fits true to size for Equipment.

Black Star Ruffle Dress
Equipment
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 12

Bust: 36D
Flattering and very (very!) comfortable
I was unsure of this dress until I got to work today. I have received so many compliments, and my office manager thinks it is one of my best unlimited rentals yet. This is the advantage for me of having the unlimited membership: I clearly have no idea what looks good on my body, and it is been great finding out what suits my current, curvier physique. :) I was going to send it back after one wear, but maybe I will keep it for a couple of days. FYI, the stripes that look a bit brown online, are very much olive-colored.

Beautiful dress, gorgeous fabric and colors
The fit is a bit tight on my tummy area, but that is no fault of the dress! :) I love this dress and can't wait to wear it this weekend.

Perfect dress for a less than perfect body! Compliments all night :)
This dress has so many positive reviews for good reason! It was challenging to get into, but once it was zipped, everything stayed in the right place. :) I am in a band that performs at weddings, and the bride told me I looked "amazing" twice. My musicians were a little more descriptive and said the dress was flattering to "the girls," so if you are well-endowed, be ready to be confident (or just grab some fashion tape for a bit more modesty). I will definitely rent this one again!
Fifth Avenue Showstopper Dress

Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 10

Great dress - just felt a bit small, so I couldn't wear it
I love this dress, and will order it in a larger size next time. I usually wear an 8 or 10, and the 10 wouldn't zip. There isn't any stretch in the dress, so keep this in mind when choosing a size.

I received compliments everywhere I went, from work to a special event to the mall!
This dress is so great that it is difficult to send back! Great fit, very flattering, and gorgeous colors.

Pink Nieves Wrap Dress

Beautiful detailing, but hugged my body in all the wrong places
I loved wearing a Herve Leger dress, but needed to wear a silky kimono over it to disguise how the back zipper buckled, and that the dress was quite unflattering to my hips. I bet this would look great on a thinner lady.
