Quality but not flattering
This is a thick sweater and is cozy just not particularly flattering. I think the biggest issue is the word “bing” is a thick patch and prevents natural motion in the sweater. I should have ordered a smaller size because it was not flattering

Second time renting
I loved this the first time I rented but wasn’t at home this time so struggled to style it with the options I had. It’s a little too cropped for the proportions (shoulder pads etc made it a bit boxy)

I typically wear A Golde but this is the third pair of CoH that I’ve rented. All have been different styles but I really like the way they fit

The color, the fit, everything about this was amazing. The picture isn’t great. I wore it to dinner with heals and slimmer jeans but I also wore it to a casual evening

Wanted to love
The shirt is billowy. I am broad and the shoulders puffed oddly. I thought I’d wear it with jeans but it didn’t work so I wore it one day with linen shorts from another reviewer. It wasn’t flattering but was fine.

So glad I’m not the only one who thinks they run small
I’m a 26/27. Ordered the 27 and they fit but they are definitely snug. I sprayed them with fabric refresher, did a few squats and they were good! Love the jeans other than fit

I wore it
Because I took chances with a few other dresses, I had to wear this one. It has a short torso. Like shorttttt. I was tugging at it all day. The fabric is a nylon noises one that does not flow so I looked enormous. I was comfortable with the look sitting down. The color is fantastic. Standing up the waist seam was around my ribs and transitioned to a parachute. Awful

Runs small-Sheer material
I rented the 8 because I wanted to try this and with the style figured I could pull the waist ties tighter. It is made for a short torso it will pull forward. The fabric is sheet and light. The weight in the front, lifts the back upward. The neckline sits oddly. It did not work

Little House on the Prairie
Pieces like this remind me of how much I miss "Unlimited ". The color is different. I love a v neckline. The drop waist combined with the ruffle looked ridiculous. I even tried to pair it with a Balenciaga/Gucci colab belt to give it a waist line and bit of an edge. It was to no avail. I returned it, tags on :(

There is a lot going on
I am a 0/2. This dress fit but the 0 was very short and not work appropriate. It is red, fitted and short. Any one of these characteristics would be fine however the combination of all 3 was too much! Definitely order a size up.

Short for taller girls
I rented this for work on a corporate environment. Unfortunately it was too short for work and while I am a 0/2, it has stretch and the 2 was entirely too fitted to be appropriate. It is a cute dress and great shade of red.

A nice twist on a sheath
I rented this for a corporate environment. The color and fit was appropriate. The dress was long-I'm 5'8", definitely not for a more petite woman. My only complaint is the ruffles and fabric are heavy. I'm a 0-2 and rented the 2. It was big on me.

Lavender muted neutral
I received so many compliments regarding the color of this dress. It's a neutral but a color. It was very nice. I gave it 4 stars because the bottom is unlined and I prefer lined dresses.

Gorgeous
The color is simply stunning, the front panel lays perfectly and can be adjusted. I'm 5'8" and it was below my knees. It is long which was perfect however if you are on the petite side it is something to consider.

Love, Love, Love
I rented this for the 4th and I love it! It can be dressed up or down. It's simple but a beautiful red(red shades can be iffy). I am so surprised by how much I love this blouse. I considered buying it but it's red and definitely noticeable so I wouldn't be able to wear it often.

Love this dress but...
I love this dress and this brand. It is so well tailored and the fabric is always beautiful. I'm a 0/2, usually a 0 but I do order a size up with this designer. The only challenge is that I am 5'7" and this dress is SHORT. Too short for work but I threw a cream suit jacket over it and wore nude stockings (which I can't stand in the winter let alone the summer but they were necessary for a corporate environment).

Cute but not a show stopper
I liked this dress. It had pockets, was extremely comfortable and stayed up with no concerns. The lace is heavy so maybe not for summer. Also I've notice with this brand that the top is very fitted but the hips are wide. I rented one other one and had the same issue only due to the style the extra fabric in the hips was more prevalent. This was my back up and it worked out well.

Runs smalllllll but is adorable!
I am a solid 2 and this dress was nowhere near zipping. I am a 34B. It is also super short. I'm 5'8" and this was far too short however the fit and dress is amazing! I am going to rerent in a larger size because I loved the fit. My only hope is that a larger size will come with a few extra inches :-)

Loved it!
I loved the fit and style of this romper. I considered purchasing it. I didn't because I received so many compliments that it would be noticeable if I were to wear it again. It showed a lot more skin than I was anticipating. I tried with a white, navy and black tank underneath and settled on the black with black shoes and gold earrings.

I felt like I was floating
This dress has two light layers and loads of fabric. It does run big. I should have ordered the xs. I am 5'8" and it was long on me. I considered espadrilles but really wanted to be casual so opted for a blush leather slide. The straps are adjustable which helped. It was so pretty and light. It's everything that you think it will be and a little bit more.

Love this!
I rented this as I was having cosmetic surgery and needed a button up outfit. This dress was amazing. I had to order up but when tied it looked adorable. I received sooo many compliments. It's a bit too short for work but would be great for a day of errands or a casual event.

Great dress
I really liked this dress and wanted to wear it to a casual outing. Unfortunately, while I'm thin I am broad and the top was entirely too tight around. The chest would have been fine but there was no zipper.

Soft and flowy...
I rented this as a post op outfit for Memorial Day weekend. It is exactly what I thought I was getting. Soft, bohemian. I really am a fan. The only thing I don't love are the sleeves. I couldn't imagine wearing this for work or an evening event but it's a great casual daytime look.

I absolutely LOVED this dress and received multiple compliments.
The dress was absolutely fabulous. Very comfortable for a Monday in the office. The fabric was a bit heavy on the wrap but the fit and fabric were terrific. My only complaint isn't with the dress rather the condition of the garment. It was missing the bottom button on the shirt "dress" underneath the wrap. I noticed in a meeting when it was revealing a good deal of my thigh. I had to carefully sit and maneuver the extra fabric all day.
