Nice fit, note light blue in pattern
I styled this both open with some flared dark jeans and a white tank and buttoned with some split hem kick flare light tan linen pants. Fit was true to size. I didn't look closely and see the light blue in the pattern. I don't wear a lot of that color as it looks terrible on me but would be very cute to style with a light blue button up, dress, or slacks

Cute but runs a little small on top
This dress fits pretty snugly around the waist and bust. I styled it with a jacket and wouldn't have felt comfortable wearing it on its own. The material feels nice and substantial, and it is stretchy.

Flattering dress, low neckline
Really liked the fit of this dress; color was super flattering shade of beige Might have considered purchasing but neckline is slightly too low for me and was a little big in the bust.

Cute! FYI flowers in skirt and on back are unlined
I liked this dress and it fit very well. Just wanted to note for other users that the flowers have cutout holes; these are lined on the front bodice but not on the skirt or the back; on the skirt they go up pretty high, so needed to wear something under it to use for work.

Drawstring tie at waist
When I rented this, I didn't notice that it had a drawstring at the waist - not all the way around but only on the shorter side. I usually really like PS but I thought this made it look cheap and it did not drape well on the tied side. I wore it but didn't feel cute.

Didn't wear, see-through
Rented for New Year at home (traditional to wear white in my family). This zips up the front and the top runs a little big. The bottom was not tight on me but was totally see-through and it isn't clear how you would fix this as any underwear solutions would also be obvious. I wasn't even comfortable wearing it at home with my family. Sad :(

Great material, colors, and pattern. Runs big.
This dress drapes really well, material is soft and silky but substantial and not clingy, and I loved the pink on red colors (trying to wear bright colors and patterns to cheer myself up in these dark times). I wore it buttoned all the way up which I liked a lot, but could also be styled more casually with all buttons opened. The dress has a side zip that I did not need (didn't even notice until I went to take it off) because it was so large (usually a U.S. 8) so you may want to size down especially if you have a small bust. Would rent again.

Lovely bright print, comfy but fitted
There is a little elastic around the waist to help the fit, which is great. It buttons all the way up, but did not have any issues with gapping. Feels well made and the print is so cheerful. Recommended for these not always so cheerful summer days

Oversized T-shirt dress
The dress is a heavy t-shirt material and the shiny asymmetric ruffle part went past my knees on one side (longer than the model. Cute but very oversized.

Cute dress, pockets, long enough, skirt is a little boxy
Rented this for everyday/business casual. It was long enough on me to wear to work with no issues, and it did not wrinkle as easily as I expected. The material is pretty stiff and on me combined with the pockets that meant the fit around the hips was a little boxy. It might have looked better belted but I didn't have the right belt. Overall I thought it looked much nicer than the retail price would suggest.

Interesting construction, great color
This dress was new when I rented it through unlimited. Since the construction was a bit different I wanted to review for others. It has two pieces connected at the shoulder; the front is essentially a backless maxi dress that is long in the front and short in the back, and the back piece has ties that wrap around in front like the model picture. The effect is a dolman sleeve look and side slits on the leg and it was pretty flattering. The only issue was that there was some gapping under the arm on both sides, evident when moving around. I wore a cami under; would be cute with a bralette or for beach/resort. Definitely not a work dress. I am a big Vince fan and the color and fabrication were great. Vince does run a bit large if you haven't worn it before.

Not too much sparkle for daytime
I wore this blazer with black shirt & pants, and I think it looked really cute, but be forewarned that I thought it was gray/black when I left the house and it is clearly blue in the sunlight :)

Cool pants but very long
I was not able to wear these pants due to their length, even with my highest heels. I do like the style and wish I could have worn them.

Gorgeous and memorable skirt
I loved wearing this skirt and got tons of compliments. I found it to be true to size (size 8, wore the IT size 12). It was a little long, however: the pink part brushed the floor, so might not be great for shorter folks. I'm just over 5'4" and it was fine with heels. Also the dark color is navy, not black, if that is useful to anyone.

Great jacket, but runs very large
I styled this with a black sheath dress but also like the way it is styled in the RTR photo. I got lots of compliments. I sized down one size (from 8 to 6) after reading the reviews, but could have easily worn a size 4. The fabric is a cool shimmery jacquard. Will rent again.

loved the color and pattern - cool with dress or skinny black pants
I really liked the style of this jacket. The lining is really soft and the fabric feels thick and expensive. On fit, if you are pear shaped, I would get this in a size for your shoulders and wear it unzipped, otherwise it will look too big and probably still not zip around your hips.

very cool neckline on this dress
The size equivalency might be a problem here (size 10 and they sent me a 46). This was way too big - too much fabric everywhere. Since the dress is a knit and meant to be form fitting this was not great. I did some creative folding and was able to wear it - but wish I would have had a size (possibly 2 sizes) smaller.

Eye catching pants look great with a crisp white shirt tucked in
Fit is good if you are small in waist with bigger hips. Fabric is thick and substantial. Didn't like the pockets (although they do zip closed) and the pleat on mine was not ironed very well by the cleaners - would not lay consistently.

I didn't wear this since it was completely shapeless and oddly long. Recommend sizing down. Color is great.

Very cute but hard to wear
Top was too big but bottom fit well. You can't wear a bra with this and it is tricky to get in and out of (from the side) so not great for events where that will be frequently necessary or fancy hair! The color of this jumpsuit is more of a red than I expected. However I did get multiple compliments on it.

Well made and great for beach wedding
The fabric was thick and didn't need shaping garments which is great because of the cutouts. Dress is fairly modest for one with cutouts and a fun way to try the style.

This top is beautiful and the fabric is really more substantial than I expected.
I still wasn't able to wear it because the armholes were huge. I would consider trying this again two sizes smaller. Normally size 8 on top.

I really liked the style of this blazer but it had too much room in the chest and torso.
Normally a size 8 on top. My husband said it looked too big on me so I did not wear it to the conference I was planning for. I would rent it again in a 6.
