Tiny arms and awkward shape
I usually wear a M but rented this in M and L. Neither fit by a mile because the arms are so skinny-- which isn't the best in a slightly scratchy sequined material anyway! And as other reviews mention, the clasp and midsection drape oddly. Fail, didn't wear it.

Usual Size: 8

Nice but not much space
Beautiful clutch, but it's very flat-- even though it's dimensions are larger than other clutches it actually stores less.

Such a flattering dress, and perfect length!
I was going to a slightly more conservative wedding than I'm used to, but can't sacrifice a deep V :) the lace, feminine color, and length of this dress were a perfect balance – fitted and flattering but sweet.

Dress The Population

Such a fun but elegant party dress!
Loved this dress. It's been on my favorites list for about two years and I finally rented - it did not disappoint! The thick layer of sequins and beads makes the material heavy so it lays really beautifully. I have a long torso and my one mini gripe is that the waist seam hit higher than my natural waistline, so it was not fitted through the bust -- sort of halfway between a shift and a fit and flare. It was actually really nice that the dress was a bit looser fitting.

Such a fun dress
Got so many compliments. The sleeves were AH-MAZING. Material was lovely and flattering. I was worried about this being too much of a pencil shape since I'm curvier, but double Spanx underneath made the booty POP.

Flame Red Selena Slit Dress
Milly

Usual Size: 8

More flattering than the picture
I got this dress as a replacement for one that I had chosen that wasn't available last minute, and was wary - but it fit better than I thought it would! It's a very plunging neckline and the slit is high, so definitely a sexy dress; but I give it 4/5 stars because it's not very fitted or flattering around the waist, which is the area I most want to show off. Would be a great dress for someone who wanted to hide a bit in the middle.

Perfect for City Hall
Rented this dress for my civil ceremony at City Hall. Not a style I normally pick - I have broad shoulders and a narrow waist and don't normally do high-neck dresses. But this fit surprisingly well! The waist was a little higher than I would have liked - sat above my natural waist so it wasn't as fitted there. Also the color was more grayish than I thought it would be. But the fabric was really high quality and I got lots of compliments (so I'll reconsider this dress style in the future!)

A++ Party All Night Dress
Wore this to my bachelorette and it was perfect. Runs a little big (I'm a 6 and the S was still loose at the hips) but that's great because it's not tight and doesn't ride up - it's flattering without being ultra-fitted. The sequins are actually a little bit multi-colored so there's some dimension to the dress and it's gorgeous. Would rent again... except I only plan to have one bachelorette!

GORGEOUS dress. I would absolutely buy this except that I can get three more wears out of it on RTR. Fit like a dream and I got a ton of compliments. Felt like a movie star.

Great earrings. Got lots of compliments, and they definitely looked high-quality. Got a bit heavy after a few hours but that's the price of beauty :)
