Tailored fit, very feminine
Fabric was high quality. Pretty blue color. Nice slim fit, not too baggy in the waist. Long enough, even when I have a long torso.

Nice fit, quality fabric
Good length if you're tall. Hugged the right places. Quality fabric.

Flattering fit, wonderful subtle pattern
Fit was great. Herringbone pattern was subtle, so not too overwhelming. I'm tall and the length was still work-appropriate. Fabric was medium-weight, not overly thick in an office.

Very elegant
The fabric and neckline gives this dress a very elegant look. It is VERY firm-fitting and doesn't hide much. Fabric is a thin, high-quality, scuba-like fabric. My only complaint is that the liner kept showing at the neckline.

Classic dress, but runs extremely small
I'm normally between a size 4 and 6 - I got the 6 and it was skin-tight all over. I have another L.K. Bennett dress in a size 6 and it was borderline too big. Inconsistent sizing... Otherwise, the dress is pretty color in a classic cut.

Vibrant color and unique design
The color is stunning. Length was great for a professional environment - hit just above the knee (I'm 5'10). The fabric was high-quality, but thin (not super forgiving and did need pressing when it arrived). Overall, I really liked it!

Beautiful color!
The colors were far more beautiful than the pictures show. The dress was true to size, but as with a lot of Black Halo dresses, it tends to bunch up in the waist (giving a pouchy look). I have a long torso and the dress hit just above the knees.

Black Halo
Size Worn: 6

Classic black dress in a sturdy fabric
Fabric was high-quality, thick(ish) and pretty forgiving. I'm tall and the length was great for the office. I'm between a 4 and 6, and I should have gone with the 6 instead for a perfect fit. The bows on the arms give this dress a cute flair.
Black Trinu Dress
L.K. Bennett
Size Worn: 4
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 145lbs
Feminine alternative to the normal work dresses
Very pretty design. Fabric was light, but not overly revealing. It ran a bit small, but pretty true to size. I have a flat(ish) stomach and the dress was a bit snug around the waist. Would rent again.
Black Floral Lee Dress
Reformation
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 6

Pretty, but revealing
The design was very nice, but a bit too revealing for work. The slits on the side were high. It wasn't just the sheer part that was see-through, you could see the outline of my legs all the way up.
Jolanda Mesh Dress
Baum und Pferdgarten
Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 145lbs
Professional look, soft fabric
The fabric was very soft and didn't wrinkle. Length was professional, even if you're tall. The fit was nice - it wasn't overly baggy in the waist and hugged my butt a tiny bit. The only reason I didn't give it is 5 is because there was just something a little boring about the dress.

Leota

Super-clingy fit
The fit was skin-tight. The fabric was fine, but nothing special. Nice dark green color.
Green Ponte Sheath
Slate & Willow
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 145lbs
Beautiful color, short torso
The color is a unique deep blue and the pattern makes it more interesting than the average dress. I didn't love the fit though. I have a long torso and found the bodice to be a bit short. It wasn't particularly form fitting. Appropriate for work, but didn't love it.

Great fit, not super-unique
The fit is perfect for work. Style-wise it was nice, but not terribly unique.
Lou Black Dress

Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 6

Unique and a great fit!
Great length of you're tall. The lace details give it a really unique look. Fabric has a little stretch, but it's pretty form-fitting.

Beautiful blue in a quality fabric
The blue color was gorgeous and the fabric was nice with a little bit of stretch. Length was great for work. The only thing that I didn't love is it was very roomy in the stomach and tended to ride up on the hips (my thighs are slightly large, so this is a common problem on straight-line cuts).

Love!
Soft, stretchy material. Hugged just the right places. Cropped ankle. I could not love these more.

Beautiful color, average fit
Dress runs small, so size up. I'm tall and the dress was a little short. Nice color. Didn't wrinkle. Fabric in good condition.

Perfect work dress!
Super soft fabric. Nice cut. Can be longer or shorter depending on how much you scrunch it in the middle. Runs large though.

Fit like a glove!
I love the way badgley mischka fits, and this was no exception. I am on the tall side and this hit right at the knee. The color was a beautiful light purple and the fabric was a quality medium-weight fabric. I would have given it 5 stars, but the garment was pretty worn - the slit in the back was torn and the fabric showed signs of serious wear. Still happy I rented it, but RTR should probably take it out of the rotation fairly soon.

Great fall dress
Nice, flattering design. Good professional length, if you're tall. Fabric was a high quality light wool. The pattern was a nice black and white tweed with some subtle red and yellow accent stripes. Will definitely rent again.

All-time favorite!
Love the fit, love the color and love the fabric. Nice length if you have a long torso. Ended up buying it.

Gorgeous color, sizing completely off
Gorgeous color, pretty lace pattern. The sizing is so off. I'm normally between a 4 and 6 - I got an 8 and it was still a bit too small to be cute. Ran a hair short for someone tall too. The lining also dipped below the lace - it looked a bit odd.

Great maternity dress
Even though this isn't technically a maternity dress, it's the only way I can see it working. The stomach isn't just a bit loose, its 6-8 months loose. Otherwise, the dress is great. Gorgeous color, great fabric, cute design.
Burgundy Multi-Stitch Dress
Tome
Size Worn: 4
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"

Intricate details and a nice fit
The dress was a perfect knee length for work. There was a slight shimmer in the top which made it a bit dressy, but not too much for a formal office. Very intricate details coupled with a high quality skirt fabric. The skirt tended to puff up in the stomach area and the top was a little pouffy, but overall a very pretty dress.

Great fit, perfect for fall!
Good length for work, flattering in the right places, but not tight. High-quality, soft material.

Jason Wu
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"

Nice fit, very professional
The color was a beautiful fall green. The dress isn't particularly unique, but well designed in a quality fabric. My only regret is that it runs big. Had I gotten a size smaller, it would have looked flattering, but unfortunately it hung like a paper bag.
Green Madison Dress

Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 10"

Beautiful color, unique style
Very nice fit, especially for tall ladies. The flaps at the bottom were fun and unique, but a bit difficult to de-wrinkle. I steamed the dress and the flaps still looked a little wrinkled. Overall, very happy I rented this dress!

Form fitting in a vibrant red
Quality fabric in a beautiful true red. Very form-fitting but a good fit. Long enough for someone tall.

Nicole Miller

Cute LBD!
Great fit - snug in the bodice, nice flow in the skirt, hit just above the knee. Fabric was nice quality and lace stripes made it a bit more interesting than the normal LBD.
Marielle Combo Dress

Beautiful dress, but slit was too high for work
The dress was a beautiful blue color in a high-quality fabric. The fit was flattering. The slit ram really high (can't really tell in this picture but it rode up every time a took a couple steps). It was so high that I don't feel comfortable wearing it at work (and my work is not conservative). There was also something weird going on with the neckline - the dress' lining was popping out a bit.

Beautiful coral color - perfect for the office!
This dress was a lot more flattering to than the pictures conveyed. I'm 5'10 and the length was appropriate for work while at the same time form fitting. Beautiful coral color and a high quality fabric.

Loved it!!
Striking red color. Worked well in the office because of its conservative design. Long enough for taller ladies. Fabric felt high quality.

Perfectly professional!
Great fit. Length was perfect (I am on the taller side and this is often an issue). High quality lightweight material. Will definitely rent again.
Grey Spring Ruffle Dress

Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 6

Pretty spring dress!
Pretty summer style - the embroidery lines made it a bit out of the ordinary. I am usually between a 4 and 6, and the 6 fit very snugly. The fabric was high quality, but had a different color and texture than came through in the pictures. I am 5'10 and it was still a good work length.
Coral Stacie Dress
Shoshanna
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 6

Feminine style, great for work!
The style of this dress was even prettier than pictured. It fit well in the upper torso and it was a good length, but it was a little baggy around the waist. The fabric was light and hugs you form - if you get it in a big enough size, it looks nice, but if you go tight it shows every bump.

Beautiful pink, perfect for work!
Beautiful color in a high quality summer fabric. Fit well all over and it was a great length for work (I am tall so this is a big deal for me).

Nice dress, but short
Pretty color and style in a high quality light fabric. Didn't end up wearing it because it was too short for work.

Such a fun skirt!
Got lots of compliments on the his one. Runs a bit small - I'm usually between a 4/6 and I went with the 6 and it was form-fitting, but looked nice. I'm pretty tall, but with the larger size, the length was fine for work. The fabric was a great combination of a fun pattern with a high-quality finish. Huge fan!

Snug, but very pretty
I'm on the border of so 4/6. I got the 4 and it was snug, but still appropriate. I'm tall and the length was just right. Very pretty, feminine style that hugged in just the fight places. Quality fabric. Loved it!
