Too big but somehow is still unflattering on your chest, immediately gets wrinkled, changed my shirt before 11am at work because I disliked it so much.

Weird fit and zipper
Didn't wear because short and tight. Also zipper was tough to move up or down.

Runs small but beautiful colors for summer
Had to go 1-2 sizes up but then the fit was perfect and the colors were beautiful for a summer night out.

Great dress
The reviews recommended sizing up and the dress was a little too big around the waist portions but perfect in the chest area so depending on your body type you may not need to size up. Otherwise loved this dress.

Pretty dress that is very comfortable
This dress fits true to size and was very comfortable to wear all day at work with a pullover and then to a birthday dinner. The colors are perfect for summer and the dress was great for a day I wanted to look good but could not put too much effort into it.

Great black dress runs small
I read the reviews that said to size up and definitely the right move. The dress is normal size everywhere but the chest area where it runs very small. I am always a medium and wore the large. I wore this dress to a wake and felt it was a great dress for the occasion.

Amazing Formal Dress
I'm usually a size 8 and this 8 was very roomy but comfortable and flattering. I would say stick to your normal size. I wore this to a funeral and it was so appropriate.

OK Dress
I read the reviews and they said to size up so I did. It was definitely necessary as the waist is pretty tight. The dress was a pretty red but pretty see through so wore a sweater at work.

Pretty Color, Nice Length
This dress is a pretty color and a nice length, especially with the slits on the side. However, it is pretty shapeless. I am normally a size M and I could have done the small as it stretches out a great deal throughout the day.

Flattering
This dress is great. I wore it to work and out for drinks/a show afterwards and felt confident and comfortable in both environments. The way the dress sits is very flattering and the color is different than the normal work dress colors. I would definitely recommend renting.

Unreal jacket
This was so fun to wear, so warm and made me feel very confident. I was stopped everywhere I went for people to compliment it (always women - men seemed to think this was a bizarre coat choice ha). It does run very large, but it was part of its appeal in my mind. If you are thinking about renting this to spice up an outfit/you're sick of your boring winter coat, this is a great option.

Wore with jeans and still looked great
I wore this top with jeans. I did not need a bra and the fit was comfortable, loose on my arms and stomach and tight enough on my chest to feel supported. The top dressed up a pair of jeans and made me feel confident all night. The jeans were high-waisted a bit of skin was showing but not too much.

Comfortable work dress
This dress is comfortable and appropriate for work. It runs large, I would recommend going down a size (I will next time). Despite the fit issue, it is still something I would rent again as it is a great winter work dress.

Lackluster
Normally a cut out at that part of my body is very flattering but this dress just did not sit right for some reason. I did not want to take off my jacket the evening I wore it. The dress always runs longer than it seems it should. It just generally is not flattering.

Easy work dress
Wore this to work one day and felt put together and comfortable. It does run a bit big but still sits well on the body. It lasted through a giant pasta dinner post-work and still made me feel put together while also comfortable.

Basic Sweater
I liked this sweater though it is not particularly memorable. It looks good and is warm. I think it runs true to size or a little bit large. I wore it tucked into the Navy Gunilla Theory pants and received a lot of compliments at work that day.

I wore these pants to work and a work gathering afterwards. Received a ton of compliments but did not feel my best in them - the hips seemed tight while the waist/legs were big.

Comfortable, Different Skirt
I wore this skirt for a family event with a black tank. Other reviewers have mentioned that it is unforgiving on the top but I thought it was flattering. I am between a 6 and an 8, I wore the 8 because it was available but this skirt does not run small. It is also pretty long, I am 5'8 and the skirt went well below my knee. It is not appropriate for work because of the shine to the fabric.

Perfectly Fine Dress
The color is pretty and I like the front zipper - otherwise it is a non memorable but flattering and perfectly appropriate work dress. I wore it as part of my unlimited membership to a nondescript Tuesday at work and felt good, while also comfortable, all day.

Never felt better
I have never received more compliments on a dress. It is black to the knee (I am 5'8") with long sleeves so appropriate anywhere woth the shoulders to spice it up a bit. It does run large, i am a 6/8 and the S was perfect.

Beautiful dress that can be dressed up for a nice evening or worn to work and still look professional. It runs a bit big in the middle area. The fabric is gorgeous and received tons of compliments.

Comfortable Dress that Can be Dressed Up or Down
I wore this dress twice - one day to work and again for Christmas Day. This was the perfect comfortable dress that could be dressed up with a blazer and pumps for work and just booties for a more casual look. I would recommend.

Comfortable and Warm Dress
Wore this dress for work. At 5'8 this can be a little short when I walk but nothing that was scandalous. It is comfortable, warm and looks work appropriate while not feeling too stiff. You could also wear with casual shoes and dress down. I liked this dress a lot. I am normally a size 8 and the medium was a perfect fit, not tight and not too loose.

Fun Pants!
I wore these a size up as the reviews said to size up and they were available in limited sizes. I think you can wear your regular size though as these fit just a little loose (although the hips/getting past them is the tightest part and if you struggle with your lower stomach these pants might not be your favorite). These pants were great to wear to work and out for some drinks after. So many people commented on them and they are very comfortable.

Great Dress
This dress makes you feel like a million bucks. I am 5'8 and normally a size 8 and wore the size L (Regular). The dress was loose but the chest area was tight so that was probably the best option for me, but if you are an 8 and have a smaller chest the M will definitely work. The length was perfect for me with flats. Everyone commented on this dress, from strangers on the street to friends. It is also very comfortable, although a bit low.

This top is beautiful and well made. Got a lot of compliments. I wore a size bigger than I normally do and it was large, but not huge. It's probably true to size. It is also very comfortable.

This dress is very comfortable, stretchy fabric and great length for work. It does run big though - I am normally an 8 and the medium was big. It was comfortable to wear for a long work day.

Amazing Dress
This dress fits true to size, although as other reviews have mentioned the shoulders seem a little small (but nothing you can't work with). I received so many compliments throughout the work day. It made me feel like a million dollars - contemplating buying it.

Cute Dress
This dress was comfortable and flowy. It is a little too short for work and the sides go very law (you can see your bra - goes to your ribs at least). I liked this more on than I thought I would.

Good Work Dress
This dress was great for a workday when you want to feel stylish but appropriate. The slit is not too high (and I am just short of 5'8"). It is form fitting and the white might show undergarments if you aren't careful.

Good Work Dress
This was a comfortable (slip on style) work dress that received a lot of compliments. I personally felt a bit self-conscious because it is so form fitting (felt like it made me look wide) so would not recommend it if form-fitting dresses are not your style. It would be perfect for a workday where you have an event or something after work where you want to feel appropriate but also like you're dressed to impress.

The fit runs a bit large but with the cut outs and the short length it works - definitely not huge. It was a hit!
