Nice color but weird fit
I wanted to love this dress but the fit is weird. I sized up based on the reviews. The arms are super small so I'm glad I sized up but the chest was too big and fashion tape didn't work well on this material. Too bad this dress had promise.

Beautiful dress for work
I received so many compliments. I typically size up for designer outfits but this was a little large so I think it runs true to size. I hope would rent again in a smaller size.
Sky Blue Suit Dress

Size Worn: 20W
Usual Size: 18
Height: 5' 4"
This was way too tight in the chest. Ended up returning without wearing.
Cute dress but runs very small in the bust.
Denim Flare Dress
LOST INK
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 18

Not great for apple shapes. Cute colors though.
I didn't wear because it wasn't flattering in the tummy area. I could have worn it with Spanx but I would have felt self-conscious so I exchanged for something else.

Nice coat for transitioning from winter to spring.
It ran rather large. I would go down a size if I ordered it again. I wasn't crazy about the faux fur sleeves, but the color is great and it was a very flattering coat.

Nice dress a little long for petites.
This runs true to size so I would size down if I rented again. I always go up a size with designer labels since they tend to run small. I'm petite so I felt like I needed to wear this with heels otherwise the length would be off. The dress is more green than bright yellow in real life.
Asymmetrical Pleated Dress

I love the peter pan collar. Great for transitioning from fall to winter.
It is a little big. I wish it came with a belt to cinch it, but it is still very cute and flattering.

Great dress. Wore to a networking event.

Great for work or weekend
I wore this dress a couple of times. The color and fabric are great. I recommend wearing shape wear because the style is a little clingy.
Carla Knit Dress

Size Worn: XXL
Usual Size: 18

Perfect for the theater
I rented this for a Saturday matinee and lunch. It was perfect. I got so many compliments. I recommend wearing a strapless bra because the eyelet design will make the straps noticeable. I usually wear a 18 in dressed but tend to size up to 20 for designer sizes.

Wore this to work for some meetings.
It is a bit low cut for work. I had to wear a cami under it. I also wore it with leggings.

I tried it on but I didn't end up being able to wear it out.
I loved this dress but it was way to small in the chest for me even though I ordered a size larger than I normally wear. Really disappointed it didn't work for me.

I wore this to work and got several compliments on it.
I read the reviews that this ran small so I sized up. I normally wear a 2X or an 18. I'm glad I sized up because the 3X fit perfectly.
