Small and tight in arms
Cute, but it ran too small in the waist and bust for me to wear. Too restrictive in the arms for me to effectively work - I can't raise my arms up to shoulder level

Not for the large-chested
The problem with jumpsuits is typically the overall fit of the torso and legs. Seeing as it's a cropped leg, I figured my short legs will fit, which it did. Unfortunately, the torso is short. That wasn't the big problem though - this is for someone B Cup or smaller. I'm a DD, so clearly not for me. I had to lie down to get the chest area to zip up. When I got up, it was the most awkward feeling ever. Like it was cutting into my chest and at the same time, the fabric might flip open and expose me. I can't wear it around my apartment and feel safe. No way I'm going out in public with this.

Nice dress, too low cut for work
Form-fitting dress that works well for an hourglass body shape. It's a bit too low cut for work, but a bit too conservative looking (aside from being low cut) for a date

Warm jacket, runs large
This is my second Derek Lam jacket and it also runs large. I think I could have done with a size 0, but I opted for a size 2 so I could layer, which worked well. It was warm and somewhat basic, which is what I wanted. Not sure I like the fur, since it looks a bit cheaper than I'd like.

Nice dress
Nice dress and very spring/summer. I'd rent it again

Stiff fabric, very 60s
Fabric is pretty stiff, which doesn't have much movement in the skirt. Looks a bit too 60s in length and shape, but not in a good way

Everything I wanted
Nice, but not too much bling. It's a nice size too.

Nice material, but didn't fit quite well
Fit a bit strangely around the bust, but otherwise nice. Wore it around during a nice weekend

Super cute and looks adorable
I love this dress. Wore it a few times and it fits nicely, looks adorable and very work-appropriate

Nice bag, nothing special though
I liked how I could wear this cross body and it looks mostly like a messenger bag. If I just hold it by the handles, it's a bit more lady-like. The material is nice and soft. It fits my laptop and plenty of other stuff while still looking cute. It's nothing super special, but it's a nice everyday bag.

Great dress, no complaints
It fit nicely on a curvy body. The fabric has a bit if stretch to it and is just interesting enough to be more than a plain white dress for work. Easy yo pair up and no fuss

Nice dress for work, but nothing too special
It was a nice dress and the texture was interesting enough to put a bit of a spin to the dress. However, the dress is very understated. It works if you're looking for a nice dress to wear to work, but I wouldn't use it as a date dress by any means. It got the job done. I wouldn't have gotten it if it weren't for unlimited.

Nice coat, plenty of space, stylish and easy to pair with work or weekend wear
Size down! I ordered a 4, which is fine for winter where I'm expecting to have a few layers, but it was enormous. A 0 for nicely on the shoulders and had plenty of space all around. Comfortable and warm, this was a nice coat. I'd rent it again.
Seaside Pea Coat

Size Worn: 0
Usual Size: 4

Beautifully made and lovely color
It fit well, but the zipper was awfully difficult and caught in one place. Maybe it was the one I got, but it was almost impossible to get out of it. I think the color was lovely. Maybe it's because I have a full bust, so the dress may have fit awkwardly. The neckline was a bit high and cut into my neck a bit. The hemline was unique and pretty.

Makes people on the streets of NYC do a double take
Fits well, but the sleeves are a bit long. I cuffed up the sleeves to fit and it looks a bit more hip. I found it to be a nice compliment to a basic outfit. It's dressy casual and goes really beautifully with white. I wanted to keep this unlimited piece forever, but decided that everyone at work has seen me in this too many times. It's a statement piece in some respect, so the statement gets a bit muted with wear. Otherwise I loved it!

Surprisingly great
It looks really nice. I just wanted something simple for work and decided to get this from my unlimited subscription. It was really awesome! I didn't expect it to look as great as it did. The asymmetric hem is really nice and works really well for a full bust as well. The quality of the material is nice as well.

Angelic-looking, but the neckline cut my neck
The dress is nice, but it's a bit large like a choir dress. I wore a nice long coat over it, which gave it a bit more shape. The combo looks pretty nice, but on its own it looks a bit big. I don't know if it's because I have a large bust size, but the neckline was a bit too high and ended up cutting into my neck. Because of that, it was a bit uncomfortable. It managed to be both too loose and too tight at the same time.

Beautiful dress - plenty of compliments!
It's an amazingly beautiful dress! I kept getting compliments all night long from people I know to be stingy with compliments! I only had one option, 2R, for the weekend I needed. I scoured the reviews and I found that it may work. It turns out that it does! However, it's really long. I'm 5'3" and wore 4" heels. As you can see from the photo, the dress was barely sweeping the floor, so people kept stepping on it. If I had the option for a petite size, I would have taken it. It turns out that the dress was perfect! It was not too tight and not too loose. It's heavy because of all the sequins, but it moves really nicely. I like the fit and the fact that I could wear a regular bra underneath. That really makes this a beautiful but COMFORTABLE dress. I wish I didn't have to return this dress...
