Super cute but beach appropriate only
It's a TAD see through if you have a little light behind you. Found that out while standing against a large office window. Better at the beach or as a cover up.

Not made for people over 5'7
I'm barely 5'9 and 130 lbs and this was UP MY business. Do not rent if you're over 5'6-5'7. Otherwise - looked very cute.

Sundown Jumpsuit

Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 9"

Great jumpsuit. Not for gals over 5'9
Great jumpsuit. I'd say if you're between sizes size up for sure. Not too much length in the torso. If you're over 5'9 with a long torso this wouldn't work for you.

Black Floral Wide Leg Jumpsuit
Diane von Furstenberg
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 127lbs

Great everyday dress
Great easy dress for work. You absolutely need to size down even if you like to wear your clothes a bit boxier (like I do). Very comfortable.

Navy Ruched Dress
VINCE.
Size Worn: XS
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 127lbs
Bust: 34B
Beautiful colors, flattering cut / fit
I choose "true to size" but as someone who is typically between a 2 and a 4 but a smidge closer to a 4 - I was able to fit into the 2 very comfortably. So maybe it does run a touch larger than usual. Great length, very on trend. Looks better in person that it does in photographs. Highly recommend.

Blue Floral Bell Dress

Size Worn: 2R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 9"

Bust: 34B
Sweet pattern, ran a little small
I'm tall and have long arms and legs. It was a little too short in the arms for me and a little tight on the shoulders. That said, most dresses and shirts are like this on me because despite having a small frame, I have broader shoulders. I wouldn't say it's true to size. A 4 was between a 2 and a 4 for a shift dress. Cute pattern. Fabric didn't feel completely premium.

Ivory Gothic Floral Shift
Tibi
Size Worn: 4
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 135lbs
Bust: 34B
Beautiful color palette
I'm typically between a 2 and a 4. I usually purchase size 4 clothing in most brands. The dress is great for everyday / desk to dinner. Runs a teeny tiny bit small if you want it to truly fit like a column dress (which is what I feel would be most flattering). If you have broad shoulders or a big rib cage or chest go with the larger size if you're between sized.

Pink Printed Ruffle Midi Dress

A compliment every 5 minutes
Runs large. I'm a pretty consistent 4 (but occasionally a 2 but with broad shoulders and a decent rib cage. The XS was perfect (and I'd normally go for a S). Gorgeous pattern and cut. Beware of a traditional wrap that needs a safety pin.

White Floral Wrap Dress

Cute but casual top
I was hoping to be able to wear this to work (in our LA office) on a Friday, but it was a bit too casual due to it being a true cotton top. It's a true 2 so it was a bit tight across my chest and shoulders. If you have broad shoulders size up. Would be super cute with jeans and some fun slides on the weekend.

Classic but modern LBD
No doubt to size down. Easily 1-2 sizes too large. I'm a size 2-4 (closer to a 4) and wore an XXS. Gorgeous dress though. Pretty weighty. Great for a work event.

Well I ended up buying this from an online store so I must have liked it
Creative blend of a wool fall / early winter coat meets motorcycle jacket cut. Love the color. Great coat.

Perfect for the Arts Gala I was attending
A perfect fit would have been a 4 in the top and a 2 through the waist, hips and behind. That's fairly standard for me. A little tight across the chest, neck, ribs. Fabric and fit is beautiful. Perfect spring special occasion dress.

Wearing a dress I'd been wanting to for a long time
The dress. I felt sparkly and the color was totally beautiful. The sheer nude back was super pretty. Great fit and true to size.

Perfect size for your wedding day essentials. And wasn't too flashy to take away from my gorgeous dress.

Literally one of my favorite things I've ever worn. Fits true to size. Very structured and flattering. Rich yellow color. Looked good on my super pale skin and light red hair...who knew I could wear yellow.

Ray of Light Dress
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: 4
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 9"

comfortable but sexy.
i'm 5'9, 127lbs, between a 2 and a 4 but with broad shoulders, and a slightly broader rib cage for my otherwise small frame. the xs fit perfectly (which is good because they were out of the small). if you are between sizes i would recommend either sticking to your size or going down if you need to. since the underpart of the dress is fitted it's nice to have it a little tighter than not. it's also definitely a blue red and the fabric is a really nice matte. very versatile.

Crimson Catwalk Dress

Great fit
I'm 5'9, 130 lbs and a very true size 4 (SOMETIMES a 2) and the Small was a perfect fit. There was a decent sized hole in the side seam (which is the only reason this is not a 5 star review) and a small stain on the skirt - so that wasn't so ideal. Other than those two things it was a great fit and not too short for someone that is 5'9 if you're wearing tights.

Ivory Glam Dress
Opening Ceremony
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4

Beautiful cut and color but DO NOT rent this dress if you're over 5'6. WAY too short to go to a wedding or anything for that matter.
Member Fit Notes
I ordered the 2 and the 4 since I can be inbetween sizes depending on the fit. Since I'm smaller in the "rear" and hip area I chose the 2. I could have easily worn and 4 and it would have been fine but the 2 just hugged my body a little better wear as most things don't in the back! The purple is the same as in the photo - almost black. It was a modern day scarlett o'hara dress in the sense that it made me feel like I'd just had it made out of curtains. Wore it to a rehearsal dinner. Was sexy but appropriate due to the length. Cute little dress.
