Love!!!
This dress was such a great find. It was so flattering and has pockets! The only hard part was the neckline is so wide that it’s hard to wear a normal bra. Would still highly recommend this dress, though! Also, I wore this a week after I got my appendix out so I was very swollen and bloated and it still fit. Based on that, you could probably size down or wear this over a bump!

Itchy and weird fit but unique
Received this NWT! It wasn’t the most flattering fit for me, a little baggy in the middle but the neck was very tight so I’m not sure I could have gone smaller. Ultimately this was just ok. I wore it to work on Halloween and told people I was a martini. Some people laughed. Wouldn’t wear again because my neck was so itchy at the end of the day. Luckily I wore a shirt underneath.

Weird arms, two belts? But pockets!
If you don’t need to lift your arms over your head, this is the dress for you. Wouldn’t rent again but did the trick as a one time wear for the office. I loved that it had pockets, the material was sturdy, and I got lots of compliments. There were two belts, one would have been better. Couldn’t wait to take it off when I got home and just raise my arms.

Very cool, wish it had pockets
It was nice and loose in the hips and still felt flattering. Need a racer back bra with it. Zipper started to rub on the back of my neck a bit by the end of the day. No pockets.

Material is weird, large fit
The material felt like something my grandma would make curtains from. It was large on me, and usually I’m a solid XXL in HHH. I don’t think I would rent this again, but it was nice that there was no cleavage so work appropriate and had pockets.

It’s a dress…not a skirt
I thought I was just getting the skirt when I ordered it, which honestly would have been much better. Loved the fabric and look and feel of the skirt but the attached shirt looked like a weird nursing uniform. Wore it to work once and immediately put it back in my bag.

Love this. Has pockets, lightweight for summer, structured enough to be flattering but not constricting, thick enough straps to wear a normal bra. No notes!

Shows all sweat
Loved the bright color of this dress and that it has pockets. Didn’t like the spaghetti strap because it forces you to wear a strapless bra, there wasn’t enough support in the dress for my chest without a bra. The worst part was the sweat. If you sweat anywhere while wearing this dress, the fabric will show it and somehow make it look worse. It also felt a little long on me so might be better for taller girls who are less curvy than me and don’t sweat as much!

Comically short
I got an XXL, my normal HHH size. The dress was so short that it didn’t even cover my butt while standing. The bust was so large that it left tons of extra material, and I’m a 38DD. I have no idea who this dress would fit, but it’s not me.

Weird fit and shows all sweat!
I had the biggest sweat stains everywhere I sweat, it was like this material amplified it, more than other material I’ve worn. The neck was also high and stiff and irritating. I was excited to take it off. Bonus- pockets!

I couldn’t get this over my hips, didn’t wear. The material has no stretch and it clearly wasn’t designed for people with curves.

This was weirdly tight in the hips, which made it not fit.

Gorgeous but weird fit
I loved the pattern, there's a ton of material but it makes the dress really flow. It is hard to scoot into a booth though without ending up with a twisted mess. My issue was with the Chest- it was way too tight across the buttons for me, but then way too loose in the waist, resulting in a weird fit that was hard to work with. I ended up just unbuttoning and wearing a bralette beneath

Cute but had a hard time styling
Cropped and oversized, hard to tell if it's better to wear buttoned or unbuttoned. Comfortable but probably should have sized down so it wasn't so blousy.

Scratchy, impractical
I wanted to love this bag and it was really cute but that's where the fun ended. It has no clasp to close the top and only one inside pocket that is very small- not big enough for a phone or keys. I could fit a hotel room key in the pocket and that's it. The material is stiff and scratchy- I rented it for a beach vacation and it irritated my skin- it also sticks out and catches on everything that you walk by. Not practical.

Great sweater for layering or on its own
Loved this sweater! I usually wear a XXL but that wasn't available so I tried an XL and it still fit just with a bit of a tighter look. I thought it was flattering without being bulky and so easy to throw on over an outfit.

Great shirt! Sturdy yet breathes
Loved this shirt! It is definitely cropped so as long as you have high enough pants and are comfortable with that, you will love it. Does run a bit large, but I think that's the style.

Cute and lightweight
Kind of confusing because it's a summer fabric and style but a black dress, which doesn't really scream summer. I paired it with this sweater for fall. I wished there was a little more fabric around the middle, size up if you've got a booty!

I loved it but it was a bit fuzzier than I thought, like a blanket. My husband thought it looked like a muppet! Chain detached, big enough for a phone and then some.

I was hoping these would pop a bit more but I also had my hair down. They are a little heavier than I'm used to for daily wear but I expected that with these, as I rented them for a formal event.
