Wear with tights - scratchy material.
I misjudged the size I would need on these pants. They run LARGE. Luckily, they weren't too long, and I could get away with 3" heeled boots! Classic appearance, just beware that they're on the large side.

Double-breasted cardi? Yes please!
The fit of this is very nice. The placement of the buttons worked well for my petite frame, and although the arms were long -- that was easily solved by rolling the sleeves. As a short person, I'm constantly rolling up the sleeves on blazers, sweaters, you name it. It didn't detract from the nice fit and appearance of this sweater. Would definitely rent again. The color is a nice neutral dove gray and cream that matches well with many pieces.

Flattering and quality material
The quality of this blazer is wonderful. It was a soft and comfortable fit, while being tailored and stylish for the office.

Great fit to wear buttoned
If your shape is like mine, then maybe you also have noticed that many blazers are NOT flattering or fitted well when wearing them buttoned. That's not the case with this jacket. It was a terrific and comfortable fit when buttoned. Looked equally great with jeans and slacks. Wore to the office and to casual dinner. Would definitely rent again.

Perfect fit, easy to wear, tons of compliments. Hem tape fixed the length issue for me (I'm super short.)

Comfy casual pants
Great for casual wear - intended this for work, but they're not quite dressy enough for my office environment.

Great tailored fit
So many sweaters are too long on my short torso - however this was a wonderful length. Many compliments on this harvest-colored sweater.

Not heavy at all - lovely color
The material looked like a heavy brocade but was only moderately heavyweight and very comfortable to wear. Lovely rich color.

Very sharp!
This blazer has great color. The cream with blue stripes is a really great contrast. Looked great with navy trousers for work, and after work with jeans.

Long slacks.
The material is terrific, mine arrived with the tags still on and the quality is very nice. Unfortunately, because I am 5'1" the slacks were much too long for me to wear. These are not for petite gals. However - if you are average or tall height, you'll love them!

Great shape, great color, LOVE the sleeves
Normally an 8 Petite, I wore the 10 for comfort, as the waist is a bit high. The sleeves are SO cute. Compliments all night, very very wearable.

Wore to an annual fundraising gala. It was perfect!
Great dress for a fundraiser we attended. Deep navy is beautiful color. Waist sits high on me, almost like an empire waist. Bust is not generous, and would probably fit better on C-cup or smaller. Very comfortable, nicely shaped. The length is great!

Beautiful dress, not worn due to size.
Not worn. I couldn't get the zipper up past my ribcage. I have a 36D chest, so it happens sometimes. The dress itself is beautiful! Both the 6R and the size 8R were too small.

Wonderful dress for awards dinner
The length of the high-low hemline was perfect. I am 5 feet 1, and wore 2 and a half inch heels. The low hemline was about an inch off the floor in my heels. Perfect. The neckline was great - no tugging or adjusting all night! The fit is slim through the bodice, and the skirt begins to flare mid-torso. I loved the pockets. The dress is light, but very well constructed. The best part is the double-fastening for the bodice in the back. There is a flexible boning liner that fastens first, then the conventional zipper layers over that. No need for a bra with this setup! I loved it. Easy to move in. Many compliments all night. Very very happy with this dress!

So many compliments! The dress was the perfect length & fit.
Loved this dress, and it was actually my backup dress. The rose-gold dress I rented didn't flatter my skin tone after trying it on, and so I wore this gorgeous little number. Perfect for work Christmas party! Beautiful dress that fits nicely in the bust, the waist, and was the perfect modest length. It hate it when you sit down and have to tug at a hemline to preserve your dignity! This dress delivered on all its promises. The color is deep an looks GREAT under lighting. The neckline is flattering to many different lengths of jewelry. Good quality materials, and a pleasure to wear. Thanks RTR!!
