Too short for tall people
Cute dress. Very short for me. Also heavier material so it's not very cool in warm, humid weather.

It's fine, not great
This didn't "wow" me, and the cut is not super flattering. The shorts are pretty long and boxy, and the high neck is kind of boring. But I'm tall, and it fit well for a romper (I usually have a hard time getting rompers to fit well with my height.) Wore it twice. It's fine but not in love. Wouldn't rent again.

Light and pretty
Wore this around a very warm Lisbon on vacation and a couple times back home in Florida. Light and airy. Would recommend for hot climates. However, be careful on a windy day! It's short enough to need to hold down in any slight breeze. Fit a little loose but better for staying cool so I didn't mind. Probably would have been fine with a small but glad I got the medium.

Nice dress, tricky fit
Overall, the dress looked great and was a good find for my engagement party. The only downsides for me were the neck was stiff and somewhat uncomfortable and the dress was tricky to get on and off. Ended up wearing the medium instead of the small bc it was already tough to get on. The medium fitted a little loose once it was on, but I didn't want to deal with struggling to get the small on.

One of my favorite rentals
Beautiful and subtly sexy dress that I got tons of compliments on. Wore to the opening night of an opera. The 6 fit me but was very snug and uncomfortable. The 8 was perfect. While the entire dress was beautiful, the slit made it really special. Not too revealing but fun. Would rent again.

A jumpsuit for tall girls
I was shocked this jumpsuit fit me comfortably. As a tall girl, jumpsuits usually have too short of a torso (ouch) and too short length. But I was pleasantly surprised! Plenty of room in the crotch. The top is loose for me as others have mentioned but not unwearable. However, if I sized down to a 4, it probably would be too tight in the hips. Regardless, excited to find a beautiful jumpsuit that fits!

Rent it!
Wore it for Valentine's Day dinner and symphony performance. Got so many compliments! Fits well for my body type, which is tall and thin with hips. Not too tight, not too loose. Very comfortable but watch out for the slit -- it's easy to forgot how high it is when sitting. Wanted to keep it for another month (spring event season), but the deep rust color is best for fall and winter. One of my favorite rentals so far.

Great fit and color
Flattering dress that hugs curves but not too tight. Wore to work and out to parties, events, etc. wore so many times I lost count. Rent it! Wish I could have bought it, but was too expensive to buy.

Too small for my hips
This was way too small. I'm tall and thin but also have hips. "Curvy" cut jeans fit me best. Couldn't button these. Definitely size up one or two sizes if you're an hourglass like me. Bummed bc they looked cute and fit through the legs. Three stars for cuteness potential.

Stunner
This dress is such a showpiece but in a classy, not over-the-top way. The only reasons I took a star away is bc the fabric is a little course and the dress was a little tight near my underarms. Otherwise a great fit, and I could still wear shapewear. My boyfriend loved it, too, and I got several random compliments from strangers at the event we attended.

Great work dress that can transition to night
Really good rental. Comfortable. Doesn't wrinkle. And looks great. Wore it to work several times and got compliments every time. Also worked for some evening business casual events. If you're on the fence, give it a try!

Looks great, doesn't fit great
Wore to a business casual charity event in early fall in Florida. Looks great but, as others mentioned, is tight around the ribs despite fitting well elsewhere. Raising arms also proved difficult. Did not work as a workplace dress for me; I'm tall so the slip underneath was too short before the sheer layer began. Overall, very pretty and love the leggy front, but only rent if you want to sacrifice some comfort.

Pretty dress, fit a bit off
Such a pretty dress with a fashionable length and soft fabric. I took off one star bc the cut is a bit awkward-fitting on my tall, thin yet hourglass shape. The dress fit well across my hips, but the stomach/waist area was very loose and the top difficult to stay in place with my smaller chest. The adjustable straps helped but not entirely. Not troublesome enough to dismiss it altogether, though -- would still rent again!

Loved this one
This is such a great dress. So comfortable, sexy yet not over the top, and warm. Wore it three times! I did feel more confident in Spanx, but I wore it without, too. Would rent again and again.

Work appropriate but unique
Wore this twice. Once to my boyfriend's evening work event and once to my own place of work during the day. Loved it. Would rent again m, but it's such a statement piece that it's difficult to wear a lot bc it's so memorable. Beautiful, though! One of my favorite rentals so far.

Itchy and somewhat unflattering
This dress is OK. The cut/shape and style is great, but the fabric is itchy and highlights unflattering areas. Recommend Spanx (I didn't wear Spanx and regretted it). But the itchy fabric ultimately makes it not a re-wear or purchase.

Beautiful dress
This is a great dress. My boyfriend loved it. The cut is so flattering, and the color is beautiful. Decided to wear with Spanx to give a smoother look. The sleeves were a bit loose for me -- falling off my shoulders occasionally -- but it wasn't overly bothersome. The dress does loosen as you wear it, and it wrinkles easily. But these downsides don't distract too much from the overall look. Would rent again.

Pretty dress, but lots of maintenance
Loved the pattern, sleeves and cut. However, the dress took lots of maintenance to make sure everything stayed in place. I used a safety pin and tape to keep the top closed and was fidgeting with it all evening. The look is great, but it's difficult to feel and look comfortable/confident in a dress that might fall open any minute.

Fine but not great
Lots of compliments at work -- pretty color and pattern -- but too large. However, if I'd worn a small, it probably would've been too short. Also, difficult to wear even in the slightest wind. Fabric is light and catches easily in a breeze.

Great fit but thin fabric
Great pattern and easy, forgiving fit. My boyfriend loved it. But the fabric is thin and doesn't feel high-quality, if that's important to you. Would rent it again, however, because it fit so well.

My boyfriend loved this one
Beautiful color and sexy fit. Quite tight, but not uncomfortable. No bra needed, as other reviews mention. Rented for a date night, and my boyfriend loved this dress for its classic simplicity and form-fitting look. Took away a star bc it was a bit difficult to walk in. Otherwise, a great dress. If you're on the fence, rent it!

Beautiful dress, but hip fit a bit off
Gorgeous colored dress perfect for a holiday event in Florida. Fabric/stitching in hip area does lay a bit awkwardly and buckles somewhat so I wore the larger size. This meant the top part of the dress was looser than ideal, but it still look great enough to wear. Comfortable fabric and good length in heels for a tall gal like me. Lots of compliments. Again, not the greatest fit for a slender but wide-hipped person, but it did the job nicely.
