Very cropped and snug
This was unwearable on me. Maybe I should have sized up to a large. But the cropped and tight fit paired with the large shoulders was not a good look. Was also stiffer than I’d hoped.

Warm-weather, easy worn dress
I rented this in the wrong season, but it would be great for spring or summer. Very light and flowy. It was not super flattering on me, but it’s the type of dress I like for work - easy and not right or revealing.

A tiny bit snug
Very nice blazer and I enjoyed wearing it. It was a bit snug on me, not sure if the next size would have been too big.

See-through in the wrong places…
I rented this for a beach vacation and had to wear it as a cover-up only because the fabric right at my underwear line was pretty sheer. There are also a bunch of “S”s all over the dress which is not my style. Overall this is fine but I would not rent it again.

Super fun and flattering
This was my first foray into the high waist, wide leg trend, and I loved these pants. I sized up per the other reviews and I think it was the right choice, although I may have been able to fit in my usual size. Only regret was that I didn’t get the matching top.

Looked like a clown
I did not wear this, I felt that it made me look like a clown. It was also really large, even though I’m between a small and a medium and I rented the small.

Pretty blouse, neck is low
Great blouse for work, nothing too special but I liked it! I didn’t realize how low cut it was until I got to work - a co-worker had to bring me a safety pin.

Fantastic, especially for travel
I packed this dress for a work conference and it was fantastic! Packed down easily and didn’t wrinkle. It’s flattering and fitted but not too tight. I felt really great in it and will definitely rent again.

Remarkably ugly
I didn’t believe the other reviews, and I should have. The pattern is A LOT in person, and the cut is unflattering. I almost wore it anyway bc it was in my closet, but my husband and I agreed it was too ugly for work.

Comfortable but put together
Rented this sweatshirt around Christmas time and it was perfect for relaxing and feeling put together for errands around town. Would buy if I could wrap my mind around spending this much on a sweatshirt. I'm a S/M, usually go for a small when something is looser fit. The small was perfect, including the right length (slightly cropped but not too much) and sleeve length

Pass on this one
This sweater was disappointing. The neckline is really high and thick, which made it uncomfortable for me. The sleeves are weird, the shoulders are really big and heavy and the sleeves are too long. The knit is kind of loose so you'd have to wear a shirt underneath to go out without showing your bra. And the colors reminded me of rainbow sherbet. Not cozy, not attractive, don't recommend!

Weird fit, didn't wear
It feels silly to say "the sleeves are weird" when, obviously, that's what makes this sweater interesting. But it wasn't just the puffy shoulders, the arms were just really loose on me. Maybe a small would have been better, I don't know. But I didn't wear and wouldn't rent again.

Solid fall dress
Rented this for Thanksgiving and wore it to work as well. Just a solid fall dress. I liked that the waist tie is attached to the dress. The waist was a little higher than I was expecting but it was ok. I think it fits TTS. I'm usually a 6 but only the 4 was available, the 4 fit ok but I'd try the 6 if I was renting again!

Super cozy, annoying buttons
Loved this jacket, it was so warm and comfortable and great for holiday travel. The color is really nice and I like the reflective details for early morning walks. Downside was the buttons -- hard to fasten and unfasten. Would be perfect if it had a zipper or even snaps! Definitely size down, I'm a S/M and the S was still oversized (in a good way).

This was different and fun to wear for a few Zoom calls. Comfortable Rails flannel with a fun sleeve. I see why people say this runs large, but I was comfortable in my usual Rails flannel size (M).

Great dress for multiple occasions
Loved this dress! And I'm not a huge fan of wrap dresses. I wore this to work and then for hosting a holiday party at home. I wore a slip underneath just to be safe. Considered purchasing. My usual Madewell size S fit well.

Fun, different jacket
I'm not a huge animal print person, so I liked that this jacket had just a pop of animal print, enough to be fun but not over the top. It was comfortable and warmer than I expected. As others noted, it doesn't have pockets!

Loved this jacket and have thought about buying a few times since I returned it. It felt like typical Madewell sizing (slightly large) to me. I really loved the front pocket in different fabric.

Lovely and unique sweater. I rented it because I thought it looked thin and we were having a warm fall. It was actually very thick and warm! I was able to wear it once or twice and would rent again when the temperature is right.

Has the brand's name written all over it
I didn't realize "Joie" was written all over this dress. Not my thing! It was also very loud (as in it crinkled when I moved) and a lot of fabric that was pretty stiff. Didn't end up wearing.

Meh.
This was fine, very casual and not very flattering on me. Did the trick for some road trips to the mountains but I prefer the Rails Hunter flannels and wouldn't rent this one again.

Fantastic work-to-happy-hour dress
I rented this to wear to work with a cardigan but ended up loving it and wanting to wear to everyday social activities as well! The material is really breathable. The neckline is almost like a racerback, which I didn't realize. I wore an athletic bralette underneath. There are snaps to hold in your bra straps. I rented my true size 6 bc I wanted the shift look. I probably could have sized down but if renting again I would personally stick with the 6!

I received SO many compliments on this dress from both coworkers and strangers. Simple and comfortable but still interesting. The Small fit but I think the Medium would have worked too.

Unique and flattering
I was unsure before renting but really liked this dress! Wore it shopping and to afternoon drinks. The hemline and embroidery are so unique. I almost sized down but I'm glad I didn't, even though the skirt is loose, the waist/ribcage is snug. My usual Shoshana 6 was right.

Beautiful spring dress
Had been eyeing this dress for a while and so glad I rented it! Really pretty color and a flattering and unique cut. I wore a regular bra with it and used double-sided tape to keep it from showing (I also could have worn without a bra). Dressed it up for a nice dinner and down for my last wedding dress fitting. I am usually a 6 but rented a 4 and it was a great fit, not snug at all.

So cozy!
Rented this as an option to wear in case it got cold at my outdoor mountain wedding. It was perfect! Luckily the weather was beautiful and I did not need to wear the jacket, but I will definitely rent the jacket this upcoming winter. It was so soft and cozy and unique.

Lots of fabric, great colors, easy to wear
I liked this dress but struggled to figure out when to wear it bc it is kind of poufy. Ended up wearing it to a nice-ish outdoor dinner. Sized down and it fit perfectly. Fully lined and didn't need to wear a bra. Might rent again if I had somewhere to wear it to!

Too much fabric
This was my first Black Halo rental and I wasn't really a fan of this dress. I sized up per the reviews and I think it was the right choice but also felt like the 8 had a lot of fabric and it just didn't make me feel good. The color and pattern were pretty, though.

Great if not for the straps!!
I don't know why I thought I would be exempt from the strap issue, but I was not! Too long! Otherwise really liked this jumpsuit for a birthday dinner. It was too thick for me to wear in the Denver daytime heat this summer. In addition to the straps, it felt a little big in the hips, though I'm not sure I could have fit in a 4.

More of a babydoll dress, not what I expected
This dress was nice, but a different cut from what I expected based on the model pictures. More of a babydoll style. It was comfy and relaxed, pretty standard Madewell! I rented my usual Madewell size S and I think it was right - M definitely would have been too big.
