A dress with no place to go
I loved this dress but didn't have a place to wear it! It was a little busty but not in a bad way - still too much for work events which means I was reliant on a social event that never came to fruition. Sadly had to return so I hope I can wear it another time!

Kinda boring
I wanted it to work but the top fit oddly with the arm holes a little too low but to fix it the shoulders sat funny. Tried with a blue jean jacket but the colors weren't complimentary. Not the statement I hoped for.

Wanted to wear it but that ruffle...
It fit everywhere but the butt ruffle! What in the world? I tried it on twice hoping to make it work because I loved it from the front and the peekaboo sleeves but felt I was a peacock from the back and not in a good way! Maybe if it was a little longer it could work but unfortunately a no go for me.

Blue Jean Style
I enjoyed this unique dress and got a lot of compliments. It fit fantastic when standing (once I safety pinned it from chest to bellybutton. When I sat down, the gaping began and showed I needed to pin it more. I liked it, but not for sitting!

Summer love!
I loved it! So easy to wear with a strapless bra as you can adjust the shoulder length with the tie. It was easy and comfy. The only issue I had was the highness of the side slits. Difficult to wear shorts underneath for those of us who need to. I wore a little lace pair and just let them show through the slits because I loved the easy breeziness of the dress. This went to work with me adding a jean jacket and to the beach for sunset dinners. Loved it!

Still a hit!
My second time wearing (a smaller size this year!) and I still love it! The top is a little larger even with my DD but I made it work. It's just so much fun and different. I forgot to wear a belt with it this time but it still worked beautifully!

Stylish and fancy
This dress worked for many occasions. I wore it to a retirement party and (unfortunately) two funerals along with work functions and felt stylish and fancy every time. The material has a little noise to it as it moves against itself (arms) but not annoyingly so. I would happily rent again - hopefully no longer for funerals.

Gorgeous but too much showing
Loved this look but couldn’t risk stepping on stage with this much cleavage. Didn’t end up wearing but wish I could have because the brocade is gorgeous and it fit well, except for the girls.

Easy summer dress
Kept intending to wear it more than once but it never happened. Fit was large, maybe should have sized down, but it worked for my church and running errands kind of day.

Cinch those stripes!
Loved that I could cinch the sides and top to make this dress fit me. The vertical strips were great and this was easy to dress for work, a garden event, or just out to a graduation dinner. My only complaint was needing an inch more of fabric in the back to cover my bra closure. No need to dip that low, designer! Thankfully, my hair was long enough to cover but it would just provide a little more class and less worry.

The perfect sweater for getting snowed in!
I LIVED in this sweater while we were snowed in for 7+ days on our little mountain . I loved the warmth, but not too warm - it was soft and cozy, no itches. It was a perfect length with black leggings and I stayed in it for every moment I could before sending it back. Not the most gorgeous colored sweater but unique and I’d rent it again for more lounging in a heartbeat.

A little mod fun for work
With tights, it fit great and I liked the full black look. Wished I’d had the right colorful jewelry to make it pop, but it still worked great. Comfy to move and sit in. The sleeves were long but I could roll them one time over and they stayed fairly well because of the brushed feel of the material. I had a long sitting meeting and had sitting creases(picture) when I got up but it was not a bother. Definitely want to rent it again!

Silky dressing gown
Felt like I put on a silk robe that i couldn’t keep closed and the wrist bands for sleeves didn’t help. Wanted to like it. Did not succeed.

Chest too tight!
I would have loved to have worn this because everything else fit and it was fun! The chest was too tight and the buttons pulled so far that no under shell style top would have worked for coverage, just embarrassment for a too tight chest.

Classic style
It was something I’d picture my stylish grandmother in and it brought be back to my young days. The dress was easy to wear (once ironed) and hid all the trouble spots with the front tie. I did pin one spot in the chest to keep from gaping but there was plenty of room without being too much. A great fit and I received many compliments on my Sunday wear to church and the children’s theatre.

Perfect cocktail
I loved this dress and ended up purchasing to wear again. I wore it 2x for cocktail events over the holidays. It was easy to wear, had just the right amount of sparkle, and tons of compliments. Worked great with black heels and sparkle heels. Look forward to wearing it again to another event next year.

Sleeves were too much
I liked the fit with the tie waist since I could tighten as needed but the sleeves were just too big for me to wear comfortably. I did not end of wearing it because I felt the long sleeves were wearing me. I also didn’t love the pink part of the plaid.

Perfect for a party!
I preferred too late for the holiday parties but I loved the fit and hope to order again in the future. The touching in the front is very forgiving and the cut not too low. Quite an attractive and elegant yet simple dress.

Zipper issues?
Tried to get it on, but between my weight and the zipper catching at the ribbon waist, it was a no go. The household didn’t love the look of it either so it quickly made its way back into the bag.

Rock it if you have a smaller chest
I enjoyed the rockstar vibe this dress COULD have brought but sadly did not work. The dress fit except for a lifting of the top leather ruffle thanks to my larger chest size and showing the pink lining underneath. The leather accent was cool, if styled right, but heavy. The sleeves felt a tad short but would have been fine.
