Stripes are glittery
I rented this thinking it was going to be a normal ribbed sweater, but the dark stripes are glittery/metallic. Not a bad thing, but not my style.

Empire waist for tall women
A lot of reviews on here say that the waist is odd. It isn't! I think it's just closer to an empire waist than a natural waist, and it's designed for taller women. I'm 5'9" and thought the fit was perfection. I would have bought the bottom hem were finished, but it isn't, and it's already fraying a little. SUCH a cute print though!!!

Easily the best thing I've ever rented.
Fits SO well, and long enough to be conservative in my business formal (ish) office.

I wish I'd realized there were metallic sparkly stripes...
If you want a holiday party dress, this is great! If you are thinking about wearing this to work and your office wouldn't be thrilled about you looking like a piece of tinsel, mayyybe pick a different dress?

Too short to wear without leggings
I'm 5'9", and my butt was hanging out of this. Sent it back without wearing.

Adorable but short and low cut!
This top is absolutely beautiful--I'm sure I'll rent it again. It's short, which was tough on my 5'9" self. I definitely needed to wear it with something higher-waisted. And it's pretty low-cut / loose up top; I wore an underpinning because if I leaned over, everyone would have seen everything! But those two negatives are outweighed by the fact that the sleeves are actually long enough, the silk drapes beautifully, and the print is one of the most beautiful prints I've ever worn. My boyfriend told me repeatedly I should buy it, and I frankly might the next time I rent it. It's that good--go rent it!

Gorgeous dress
Loved this dress! It was long enough for me (I'm 5'9"), and the color and wrap was really beautiful. It's a true wrap / unlined -- I figure folks renting a DVF wrap know what to expect on those fronts! The ruffle sleeves were beautiful, not overly fussy like I was worried they would be. Rent it!
