Gorgeous color but not flattering
I wanted to love this dress, but it just wasn't flattering. It's both short and very wide. But the color is beautiful and the fabric feels high quality.

Ruffle Neck Charmeuse Dress

Beautiful, unique, not 100% flattering
I rented this dress for a wedding and loved it, although it definitely wasn't the most flattering thing I've every worn. It felt a bit matronly, but the open back and side slits made it edgier and the pattern is gorgeous. It was very unique, feels like a special dress. Can definitely be dressed up or down.

Loved it! So glamorous
This dress definitely runs small (I rented a 14 and and am usually a 6-8 and still couldn't zip it all the way up) but it is stunning and very unique. I didn't have the tight arm issue that other reviewers noticed - the sleeves can be adjusted with the ties. The back zip doesn't have a hook-and-eye closure so it will come unzipped a bit, but I left it ~1" unzipped and it was fine, not noticeable.

Awkward, didn't wear
I rented this for everyday wear but didn't end up wearing it because it is cut so awkwardly. It's oddly small around the chest but then balloons out like a trapeze. I couldn't tuck it in to make it looks better because there is SO much fabric and the way the side slits are cut make tucking awkward

Very tiny in the chest!
I rented two sizes larger than my normal size and still couldn't zip it over my 36D chest - probably not a good pick for larger chests

Did not wear
The slit came up very high and the lining underneath was awkwardly exposed which made the dress look quite cheap. The skirt is also extremely long as others have mentioned - it looked ridiculous.

Didn't wear - unflattering fit and colors
Really wanted to like this sweater, but the fit was unflattering and the colors were awful. I thought it would look fun/unique, but it doesn't hit the mark

Huge sleeves!
I didn't wear this sweater - the combination of the bubblegum color, the cropped length, and the massive sleeves made it look ridiculous

Nothing special, fine for everyday
The sweater isn't flattering and the color is drab. I wore it once but felt frumpy, wouldn't rent again

Unique details, lovely color, strange fit
I wanted to love this sweater because of the color and sleeve details, but it looked strange on me. The cropped length with the puffy sleeves made my shoulders look super wide, but the color is beautiful

Pretty and flattering
I loved this top! It was flattering and dressy enough for a night out. It is fairly low cut, so I wouldn't wear to work.

Cute but not super flattering
Nice everyday sweater. Comfy and unique details, but the cropped length and large fit were not very flattering
