Comically short. Not for taller women!
I'm 5'9" and I couldn't wear this. It was comically short - as in, my butt was literally hanging out the back. The quality is nice, so if you're on the shorter end, I'd recommend! But definitely not for anyone even remotely above average height. I rented one size larger than what I normally wear (2 instead of 0) based on previous reviews and had I been able to wear this, that would've been a good fit so I recommend sizing up one.

Super cute and casual!
I love this nude shade with a slight gold metallic sheen (well, nude on me at least) because it ever-so-slightly-and-subtlety adds an element of flirtiness to what could otherwise be considered a boring top. I selected "true to size" fit because it's supposed to be a looser, boxier fit, and my typical size made that fit look appropriate on me.

Super cute - and there is a zipper!
I thought this was cute, though I'm on the taller side and it was long on me - in a good way! - but just keep that in mind if you're a bit shorter. I read in several reviews that's it's super tight in the bust, and I would've agreed if I hadn't taken advantage of the concealed zipper on the side. Not saying that other people didn't find that zipper - but I know that when I tried to put it on without unzipping it, it was really hard to get over my chest. When it was unzipped and then zipped back up once over my chest, it fit fine there!

Ordered a size larger bc of reviews, but ended up being far too large
I studied the reviews as I do for every garment I rent, and so many reviews on this skirt said the waist is snug and recommended to size up. I usually wear an XS/0 so I ordered a small, especially since I tend to be larger in bottoms than in tops. My experience was that the waist was waaaay too big for me! It sat low on my hips and didn't give me a defined waist the way this skirt is meant to be worn. The pic shows the waistband of the skirt on me (don't worry, that wasn't the top I wore with it!). As always, make your own judgements based off of the reviews you think are most relevant to you, but I should've stuck to my size.

Beautiful!
Fits very true to size and was a beautiful, vibrant, classy color and shape! I wore this out to a formal dinner in Paris with my boyfriend and I got compliments from other patrons at the restaurant. The ruffle makes it fun, but isn't by any means overwhelming in its presentation.

Very cute and slimming, but super short if you're tall!
This was super cute - the top part was very slimming. However, if you're taller, I'd caution against this rental - it's pretty short. Any small twirl in this dress led to my entire butt being exposed :(

Gorgeous, classy dress
Wore this to my birthday dinner with my boyfriend and his parents in Paris - was a super formal restaurant, so it fit right in. The raised neckline (turtleneck-ish? is there a descriptive word for that style neckline that I don't know? haha) and ruffles made it really classy, and the slit kept it young and fun. I'm tall, and the shorter front and longer back meant the regular looked normal despite my height. Would definitely rent again!

Super cute and well made!
The front zipper is AMAZING for whenever you need to go to the bathroom or whatnot - such a great feature! I kept this casual with a denim jacket and nude patent flats for a daytime birthday party, but it can easily stand on its own.

Very short if you're a tall girl
Definitely cute, but at 5'9", this dress was short enough that you easy get cheeks hanging out if you bend over to any degree. With tights and with caution, I did wear it out during the day, but wouldn't have worn it bare-legged due to how short it was.
