Beautiful but very small
Very pretty, structured gown with a great weight to it but very very small. I ordered my usual size and it wasn’t even close to zipping. Would likely have to size up one or two sizes for a good fit.

Amazing!
I NEVER fall in love with pants and I bought these the hours after putting them on. Great fit, super soft and comfortable, and got so many compliments! The ties are adorable. They can be dressed up or down easily, look just as good with heels or slides or sneakers.

So flattering
Beautiful dress with a super flattering fit. Works for the office or dressier with the right accessories! I would love to wear this again

Amazing!
Definitely one of my favorite rentals ever! The fit was perfect- such a flattering silhouette and a length that works for a date, wedding, or even the office. Fabric was gorgeous and all the little pleat details were so delicate and perfectly placed. The one con was the zipper: it is a bit sticky in transition spots but well worth the struggle. If I could spend 4 digits on a dress I would buy this one!

True to size and super flattering fit. Love the design and the way it emphasizes the waist. Considering renting again and buying it!

Loveeee this dress
Amazing fit. Flattering, slimming, and just the right length (I'm 5'3 so most regular long gowns are too long on me). The bow and peplum detail is simple but festive. Perfect for a holiday party!

Almost!
Cute, true to size but the dip in the front made it far too short to wear to work (even with tights). I'm 5'3 so things are rarely too short! Would be cute for a non-work occasion.

Love this shirt! True to size with a flattering fit AND without any gaping at the bust! lovely details in the piping and buttons. Will reorder for sure.

Very pleasantly surprised!
The dress without the belt is quite shapeless so I was a bit worried that it wouldn't be very flattering on, but once belted I really loved it! The neckline is great and the back detail makes it stand out (though I do recommend going bra-less or using a strapless one that you can wear low in the back). Super comfortable and lightweight- perfect for a rehearsal dinner on the beach.

Fun and work-appropriate!
Great fit. Definitely form fitting but a nice material with a bit of weight so I didn't feel to exposed. The skirt is so much fun! Loved this dress

Love it but note it runs large
Pros: great quality, super comfortable, figure flattering Cons: runs really big. I am usually a 2 or 4 and got the XS. It was still a roomier fit than i had expected for an XS but still was very cozy and looked great. Perfect for work. If you want a tight, bodycon dress than you really should size down twice

Really Cute!
Love this dress despite it not being exactly what I expected. It's comfortable but figure flattering with the waist tie. I rented it as a dress for work but actually found it a bit short (I am 5'3) to wear with tights so wore it over leather leggings and left the bottom half unbuttoned so it was more like a tunic top. I ended up loving the look! Will rent again.

Almost perfect
Loved this top! Super cute ruffles and great fabric/color for summer. I had a little trouble keeping the strap from falling down, but honestly an insignificant problem given how fun this was to wear. Very figure flattering!
Lavender Tate Top

Liked but didn't love
Pros: beautiful fabric. The colored spots were lovely colors and gave the fabric a great texture. Very appealing to look at. Cons: it's not very figure flattering. It's doesn't really enhance the waist and is very narrow around the hips. There is also no slit at the bottom so it's tricky to walk up steps/ get into cars. Also a bit low cut for work. Pretty but just not for me

Lovely dress
True to size and lovely waistline. The neckline is so beautiful yet delicate enough for work. A very fun spring color in a great fabric.

Beautiful but size up!
Lovely midi dress with a beautiful, colorful print. Not great, however, for curves and it definitely runs small. I usually wear a 2, sometimes a 4, and ended up getting the size 10 here that ended up fitting just right, almost a bit snug across the hips. Worth experimenting with though because the print is so vibrant and fun.

Excellent top!
Perfect, flattering fit that emphasized my waist and also brought a lovely architectural element to me outfit. Really fun with pants or a pencil skirt. Will rent again!

Almost loved it
I wanted to love this dress. It was flattering shape-wise and the fabric had a great feel to it. However, I found the slit very high and couldn't wear the dress to work. I ended up wearing it to dinner and definitely had to be a little cautious with the slit to prevent a wardrobe malfunction. Beautiful top but the bottom just didn't work for me.

I found this dress lovely. Very true to size and flattering fit. The fabric is beautifully textured and perfect for spring. Would happily rent again.

Great dress!
Great fabric, soft and thick enough for fall or winter. The colors were a bit more muted than in the picture, but lovely and earthy. A bit short (I'm only 5'3") but work-friendly with tights.
Graphic Lucia Dress
Marni

Very pretty for work or play!
The dress is pretty loose-fitting, so a true size or size down works depending on what fit you prefer. I found the smaller fit to work best. The pattern is beautiful and the fabric feels light and soft. Easy to dress up or down. The only complaint is that the dress wrinkles easily while you're sitting so leaves some crinkling across the front/middle section.

Great, versatile dress
Loved this dress! The fabric is a good weight, not super light or heavy and holds its shape well, making it really flattering on curves. The collar detail is super cute, and detachable. Long/conservative enough for me to wear for work with heels or flats. Also easy to transition to dinner/night out with a statement necklace, strappy shoes. I would keep this one if I could!

Amazing!
I wore this to an outdoor wedding that was both formal but had lawn games to be played, and it was absolutely perfect. True to size and very flattering fit. I'm 5'3 and the pants were a perfect length to show off the shoes, while the skirt was a bit longer and had a lovely train. It was light and airy, and the fabric fell and twirled just beautifully. I can't say enough good things about this!

Lovely
Great fit, very slimming at the waist. Light fabric and the sleeves are sheer so it works even in the summer. The only tricky part was the row of tiny buttons at the sleeves but not too bad with some help or a few extra minutes. Highly recommend
