Very chic, too long
I loved these pants! Wore them for a work conference, got several compliments. The pattern is subtle but eye catching. I’m average height 5’7 and they were a couple of inches too long for me even with a low heel. Also a little snug at the waist!

Perfect aprés sweater
Gorgeous sweater arrived brand new with tags. I am very sensitive to itchy fabric and this sweater had no hint of scratchy - it was perfectly soft and warm. Got multiple compliments of “that’s a great ski sweater” even though I just wore it out and about, so the apres vibes are strong.

Beautiful pants, run long
I loved these pants! They are warm and soft and perfect for a long work day. I am 5/7 and they just touched the floor for me with heels on, so might not work for shorter renters. They are also on the lower-rise side.

Super sparkly
I ordered this blazer to wear to a work meeting and did not realize the fabric is actually very metallic. It was too loud for my meeting but I wore it to the airport for fun. It’s a great blazer, just wasn’t expecting the sparkle!

I was not able to wear this item - it runs quite small and short and was comically skin tight!

Cute but scratchy
I liked this sweater, the varsity style is unique and fun. However I am very sensitive to itchy fabrics and this one was a little too scratchy for me.

Warm, comfy and cute - very oversized
I loved this sweater! It was perfect for WFH or for casual outings and was warm without a hint of itchiness. As others have noted it runs quite large even for an oversized style. I would have bought it if it were less expensive - and would have sized down. Will likely rent again!

Super warm and long
This dress is really cool and funky. It’s much longer than I expected - almost ankle length and I’m 5’7. It’s also super thick and warm - way too hot to wear unless it’s truly chilly outside. Would be great for a winter baby shower for example.

Very formal
Pretty jacket and luxurious fabric. I loved the unique sleeves, but didn’t wear as it felt very formal - like something you’d wear over a gown as a cover up or another formal event. Was way too dressy for a business meeting.

Just okay!
I rented this as a work dress, but it was a bit quirkier than I expected. The neck is quite low, so needed a camisole. The skirt is also VERY full. The colors are beautiful, and overall the dress fit quite loosely. I think it would be great for a derby party or baby shower, just not want quite right for what I needed - I’d size down, too.

Sleeper hit - I bought it!
I rented this dress with an extra spot and didn’t know if I’d end up wearing it. Well I did, and I loved it so much I bought it. The fit is beautiful and the dress is unique and well made. A little long, but fine with a low heel for me!

Very oversized fit
I was hoping this would be a great summer work dress but it didn’t work for me. I ordered my usual size and it fit like a potato sack on me - I think even if I had sized down the shape would have been unflattering. It’s not a bad dress, just wasn’t quite the shape I was looking for.

Fits loose, pretty day dress
Really lightweight and pretty dress that can work for lots of different occasions. The fabric is very soft and the length is perfect. The waist has a tie but it seems to only tie on one side which sort of bothered my symmetrical sensibilities. But still a worthwhile rental especially for warm summer weather!

Cute, but the belt doesn’t stay fastened
This is a really cute daytime dress. It’s very figure flattering but has no stretch. My only gripe was that the belt doesn’t stay fastened - the buckle slips and slides which can cause it to look awkward.

Gorgeous color, flattering cut
This dress was a big hit for an early spring wedding! It was warm enough for when the weather is still a little chilly and was sexy without being overly revealing. Very comfortable and the shade is stunning in person!

Too short!
The construction of the dress is beautiful, but it runs small and the underlay is quite a bit shorter than the lace. I wouldn’t have been able to sit or dance without flashing everyone, and I’m not especially tall.

Perfect dress for work. Beautiful colors, a flattering cut without being too low in the chest, and I love the asymmetric hemline.

Not a flattering fit
I wanted this jumpsuit to work so badly, but the cut is just super unfortunate. It fits snugly and the waist seam lies right above your belly and hips, so it really highlights any lumps or bumps. The fabric and colors are even more vibrant than the pictures, but the cut of the garment just did not work for me. Didn’t wear.

Beautiful color, right around the ribs
Very high quality fabric and stitching, but the zipper was quite sticky and the fit is a little tight around the ribcage so recommend sizing up if that is ever an issue for you. I didn’t end up wearing as it’s too formal for the work event I’m attending, but I think it would look better with a belt as it’s a little bland as is.

Super tight around the ribs
I rented this far a fall wedding, but should have sized up. The color and fabric are really beautiful, but the fit around the rib cage is really tight - I couldn’t breathe and it caused pulling in the back. Size up and it might work for you - definitely requires fashion tape too!

Really warm and nice color!
This sweater is really pretty. I loved the warm rust color and the arms hang nicely without looking overly saggy. It is a little bit itchy, but not terribly so!

Too much sideboob
I didn’t end up wearing it. The dress is super low cut, and also cut low on the sides. The straps are adjustable but were not super easy to adjust - so I found it really fussy to try to get it to hang evenly. It’s pretty, but not a worthwhile rental IMHO.

Beautiful, comfortable dress
I loved the vibrant colors and full skirt. This dress can be dressed up or down and is the perfect summer day dress for work or play. It really stands out without being "too much" and is very comfortable. It does seem to run large, I probably could have size down and gotten away with it but I didn't mind the looseness since the belt can be tied to help it fit better.

The length was a little awkward on me and the neckline very baggy, but the jacket does seem like it would be very warm!

Not for people with slim hips
The dress itself is beautiful - the embroidery is eye catching and the colors are even more beautiful than in the photos. However, this dress just didn't work for me. I am usually between a 2 and a 4, and the dress is cut in such a way so as to accommodate curvy hips. Alas, I have none, so it just created a weird saggy look around my waistline that was not flattering. Sending back unworn.
