Huge letdown. Size down!
This dress looks beautiful on the model. I got it newest tags tried it on and it was super big. I could've probably gotten an extra small. The dress has elastic in the back and the arm straps are adjustable. There is a tie in the back that allows you to tighten the bust area, but no matter how tight I tied it, the top kept loosening up. The straps were too long. The dress was just big and not right the color combo looked horrible on me. Runs super big. I could've probably sized down to an extra small or even an extra extra small, it looked really frumpy and dowdy on me. It will be going back New with tags so hopefully somebody else can rock this look because I sure did not.

Not worth taking a photo
This is a gorgeous shirt made very well. Very detailed and feminine. It looked horrible on me. I'm going to have to be more careful of what I rent now that they've raised shipping prices. Definitely not worth adding a shipment just because I want the matching set that was a waste. The set looked horrible on me.

Didn't wear
I actually paid for extra rentals to get these pants so that I could have the matching set. They are beautifully made the elevated lace and embroidery is gorgeous. However, they have just a weird fit. The lining fits and the outside is big did not look attractive and looked very heavy on me. I felt like it added 10 pounds.

I've noticed this designer always runs large. I love the pimple cut on this shirt. The V is a bit low, but I got tons of compliments. The print goes it a very unique look from other pieces by G ANNI.

Surprisingly a favorite
Love the color there is some blue in this shirt goes great with jeans. Gives them an elevated look runs true to size is very body con but the neck and the fit and print all combined make it very flattering. It is very lightweight and comfortable. Perfect for this time of year.

Just right
This top is made well runs true to size. It has great detailing and a very flattering fit. It does have some stretch. The bottom does curl up slightly if you took it in that will stop that from happening. My only complaint the inside tags were a little irritating. A definite must run.

Very weird luck
I gave these glasses four stars because they are made well. They are unique and classy looking. They just look horrible on me. I was so disappointed They're not stretched out of shape either so they fit and do not fall off your face. I just think the double frame look with the gold was a little too much for my face. and I kind of look a little ridiculous in them, so I only wore them once.

Not for me
I loved the picture of this outfit on the model. I actually added a shipment just to order it. When it arrives and I tried it on I was extremely disappointed. I guess stripes are not for me. It was just way too much and I couldn't pull it off. It does run true to size. The material is heavy. The neck line is like a boat neck. I just think the stripes were too overwhelming the top without the pants or the pants without the top would probably look better paired with a solid alternate piece.

Great style
This top runs true to size. It has a great fit. I love the high neck and rushing on the sides. It is not cropped, but you can tuck it under so that it meets high waisted pants at the right point I love the fit and it was very comfortable. The high neck and cut of the top shows off your arms and is very flattering. My only complaint was the neck was really hard to button. If you have nails it is a pain in the butt.

Strange fit
Love the dress great style the fit is just off. I'm not sure if the photo shows the true extent, but the draping in the back pops out on the sides. It looked like I had wings or it looked like the dress had detached itself from the back strap, it should have laid flat. And other members reviews their photos do not show this so maybe it just did not fit me right. It does run true to size and is a little bit long so heels would need to be worn. I was unable to wear it because it just did not look right poking out under my arms like that.

Awkward to Karey
This is just a basic white almost bucket style bag. The way the handles are makes it a little awkward at first to figure out the best way to carry it. It's also very plain and it tends to make it look cheap but I wound up getting used to it and actually it's the perfect white every day summer purse. It does fit a lot. There are no internal pockets. There is a hook to hook your keys on.

Wrong size, but love
I wound up getting these pants in my alternate size 6, which is way too big. The picture does not show how big they were. I managed to pull it off and wear them and just love them. They are lightweight. They hang and drape just right. definitely get your size or size down for a tighter fit. They do run long. I am 54 and the regular was a little bit long for me. I had to wear heels. Hopefully I will be able to get them in a size 4, but it's never available which is one drawback of this website, the limited sizing.

Great fit stripes too much
They fit true to size. They are kind of heavy if you're in a hot climate and the material is not overly soft. I thought it was uncomfortable the stripes, especially when worn with the shirt are just not attractive to me so I returned it without wearing it.

Great colors
Gorgeous top runs true to size. The neck line is very draped and it has a tie in the back to help secure it a little better. However, that's not enough. Beware when you bend over if you go brawls with it, I ended up putting a bandeau top under it. There is a little bit of an inside lining, but it is not enough or maybe the top just did not fit me exactly the way it should have. I got tons of compliments and I definitely recommend renting this top.

Unique and classy
This is a beautiful dress. It is a lovely shade of blue and the embroidery and detailing are perfect. It runs true to size. The top part of the dress is more fitted and the bottom part kind of drapes over your hips and waist The back is longer than the front and the embroidery give it a unique hem line. The dress is lined and zip up the back. You may need help with the back zipper. I could not get it the last 6 inches but then again I am not that flexible. This is a definite must rent. I love all of Jonathan SIMKHAI's dresses and clothing. It never disappoints and this one definitely will not disappoint. Do rent.

Great fit
I love these pants. I rented the style they got last year which had the darker stripe on the side. The fit is great. I usually wear a 26 but my knowledge of mother's jeans told me to rent a 27 and it was perfect . The style of these jeans, elongates your body and makes you look taller It is the perfect style for everyone.

Extreme shock
I was pleasantly surprised with this top. I did not expect it to look as good as it did for the price point. It definitely is made well. It has a side zipper, which makes it easy to get on. The neck line is a little different from your typical crewneck more of a boat neck. Is the perfect color for this time of year. It compliments anyone's skin tone. it's a definite must rent. The top sits just at the belly button or slightly below, depending on your torso length. The detailing on the outer shell looks like some of the more expensive pieces I've rented. I was really happy with this rental.

Disappointed
I was really excited when I was able to rent the pants with the top. I did not like the material. The pants were made of the zipper did not stay up overall it was just not the outfit for me. It looks great on the model and some of the reviews with pictures. It looks great on the people that have rented it. It just was not for me. It is kind of a heavier fabric than I thought. I thought it was a shooting material because as usual, I didn't read the description. If you can rent this set, I'd definitely recommend trying it, especially if you're tall and slim.

Perfect jacket
This jacket has the perfect crop for high waisted jeans. I can also be worn kind of as a top. It is super lightweight and of course the color navy goes with almost everything , perfect for this time of year. It fits tight at the waist and has a slightly bubbled look on the body just a very great silhouette.

Perfect color jacket
This jacket is really great. I was very surprised I liked it. It has a crop fit and bubbles a little so I guess it's like a bubble jacket. The color is perfect and can be worn with the most anything. It is a really strange material which I did not expect but I wore it on a day that was like 58° and I was hot. It did keep me warm. That being said perfect for early spring and fall. It really is a great luck.

Perfect transitional jacket
I love this trench style jacket. It is very lightweight but has a great fit and look and is perfect for spring. It does run a little bit big, but I got my normal size and was very happy with the fit. It is supposed to be a looser fit structured at the waist with the belt. I wanted to buy it but could not see spending that on a jacket when I have bought so many from RTR. It also blends well with the STAUD. magpie pants. The browns are slightly different but paired with the right top underneath makes for a nice look.

Cute but tight arms
This wrap blouse is a really cute piece. My only complaint is it was very loose everywhere else, but if I moved my arms forward, it was very tight so I had to unbutton and roll up the sleeves then it was fine. If I had sized up. It would've been way too big. I just think the arms are cut either a little narrow for the type of fit they're going for. It definitely recommend renting it great for spring looks great with a light pair of jeans. I wore out to a game night/party and got tons of compliments, which was surprising because it's just a blouse.

Great fit
These pants run small but if you can manage to get the right size, they have an amazing shaped flattering fit. I normally wear a waist 26 or a size small or four in these pants. I wound up sizing up to a 27. I probably could've sized up to the 28 and been fine also. Great flared two-tone jeans, but definitely size up.

I rented this because I love the set when it came out. Without thinking rented a small in the shorts which is my usual size, but I would prefer shorts like that to fit a little looser so I did not wear them, but they are amazing. super cute. It's just too cold to wear them right now. I will size up in rent in the future. They do run true to size but if you want a looser or more comfortable fit size up.

These pants I got brand new and was very disappointed with the fit. They run large and had a strange fit on my figure. They made me look short and squat and bowlegged. I have Warren barrel style pants before, but these just had a weird fit and I could not try the smaller size because it was gone. On a positive note they are made well and are perfect for sprain. Just not perfect for my body type.

Great print and color
When I first got this jacket, I was disappointed did not realize it was as light as it is. However, pleasantly surprised very versatile. It can be worn as a shirt or a jacket over your favorite T-shirt or Tank. It is definitely cropped and it has kind of a shiny texture so can be dressed up or down. Size up if you do not want it to be so cropped and fitted. I did give it four stars because the pockets hit right below my boobs, and if I turned a certain way or move to a certain way, they popped out and not in a flattering way, but other than that, love this piece.

Perfect
This jacket is the right amount of thickness. It is warm best for late late winter right before spring or fall. Can be buttoned at the knack for a more tailored look or left open for a more relaxed look. Has a slight military vibe and is definitely one of those pieces that will not go out of style. I am still debating over whether to buy it or not.

Simple but sexy
I love this top and love the fit. It has an elegant, sexy, look to it. You can dress it up or down as seen from other reviews. This is the one top that I can say it almost look good on every single person. It has a structured fit around your waist line so you can wear it tucked in or out and a very appealing drape around the neck line. It is a sheer top, so make sure you have a cute bralette or Cami to go under it

Tried on
After a week of waiting for my order, I received these jeans. They are very thin and because I listen to the reviews the sizing was perfect. However, they made me look gigantic in the hip area and they look terrible from behind. I did not wear them. I've read the reviews and looked at the photos and they look great on everybody else except me lol maybe if I had tried with heels it would've been better or maybe I'm just too old for that style.

It took forever for me to rent this shirt. I wore it to my brother-in-law's birthday out at Ruth'Chris steakhouse. Hair is great with black FAUX leather pants not too heavy. The fringe was a little bit of a pain in the butt but other than that I love this top. I would've bought it, but I don't think it's the type of top I would wear more than once or twice. It's very memorable definitely a statement piece. The fit is amazing. True to size compliments any figure.

I really like the sweater and I love the style. It is a boxy slightly loose fitting sweater because of the thickness it’s a little hard to tuck in in the front in tighter fitting pants. It is a little teeny bit itchy but not bad and I am over sensitive. Definitely a must rent very warm. Love the sweater.

Great fit
I loved these pants and they looked great with the jacket. It made a very unique eye catching outfit. I gave it four stars though, because the pearl button was not secure on the pants and I did get them new. Because of this, it didn’t line up evenly with the zipper And I kept having to adjust it. I was afraid the button was going to fall off if I decide to buy this, I will take it to a tailor and have it reinforced.
