Amazing for pregnancy and postpartum
I rented these to get me through that delightful month after giving birth when you need supportive clothing, nothing pre-pregnancy fits, but you are officially sick of your maternity clothes. These leggings are amazing: thick with piping down the front so they work with a dressy shirt at the office, super supportive for baby bump and after. I wish I had these throughout my whole pregnancy- I probably would have purchased!

Love
Hatch is such a gorgeous and stylish brand and this jumpsuit is just that. Beautiful, soft fabric makes for a super comfy outfit even at 34 weeks pregnant. It's super cute, flattering, and extremely well made. A bit casual, so might not be suitable for the office depending on dress code, but I work in an anything-goes office and got a ton of compliments. Rent!

Cute and comfortable
32+ weeks pregnant usually means foregoing style for comfort (hello husband's XXL sweatpants), but this dress is as game changer. SUPER cute, SUPER comfortable, easy to dress up or down depending on shoes. It's a rib knit and fitted without being too bodycon-- so perfect for the office. The stretchy cotton keeps it from being too hot, and there is actually room to grow. I'll be holding onto this until my due date.

Soft and cute, just tight for 3rd trimester
Gorgeous fabric and really cute everyday dress. I found it a bit impractical for the 3rd trimester as it was SO TIGHT around the boobs and bump, but loose in the shoulders, so I'm not sure sizing up would be the answer. I wish I had rented this earlier-- would have been perfect for weeks 18-28.

Cute dress, a bit tight
I loved the color, the sleeves, the neckline. The fabric was very soft and stretchy and my husband even commented on how nice I looked for a cocktail party. I wore it at 28 weeks, and despite loving how I looked, I felt uncomfortable as the dress was just a bit tight and a bit too short. I think this is the ideal second trimester cocktail (mocktail?) dress, but didn't 100% work for me going into the third trimester.

Cute + super comfortable = ideal casual maternity dress
Oh the joys of being 7 months pregnant in the summer. I was visiting family in hot, humid St. Louis, and I wore this dress four days in a row (with flip flops during the day, heels for dinner out). The dress is a soft, stretchy jersey making it extremely flattering, cool, and comfortable. I also love that it hits mid-calf, and the subtle white dots make it possible to dress up or down. I'll be holding on to this one until my due date.

Beautiful fabric, huge!
This dress is a beautiful silk with a fun domino print. The necktie is a very cute detail. The only drawback is that it's very over-sized. I'm 18 weeks pregnant, (pre-pregnancy size 6/8) and I was swimming in a 6. Rent, just go two sizes down.

Perfect work-ready maternity dress
I'm 18 weeks pregnant with baby #2, and I LOVE this dress. It's the perfect marriage of being fitted without being tight and comfortable while still having shape and subtly showing off your bump. It's an extremely soft, navy fabric with tasteful pink/ navy/ cream/ metallic tweed accents: think Chanel doing a maternity line. Love this one.

The Jeanne Wrap is the best DVF
Why DVF ever bothered with other cuts of wrap dresses is beyond me. I find that that the Jeanne has ALWAYS fit like a dream: not too tight or revealing in the bust, fitted enough in the waist to be incredibly flattering. The color and cuff details make it polished for work or dinner out. Black and white chain print is different and elegant. Even if you haven't had luck with DVF in the past, give this one a try.

Beautiful print, comfortable, elegant
Unbelievably comfortable, elegant dress. It's a loose-fitting shift, but fitted enough in the shoulders to give it shape and elegance. The print is unusual and I loved the blue, marine greens, and cream colors. Gorgeous silk too... if you could wear an Hermes scarf as a dress, this is what it would be like. Additionally, for the ladies who are expecting, I'm 13 weeks pregnant and this style fit like a dream.

Gorgeous, very body con
I honestly loved this dress but there are some caveats. This dress is adorable, really comfortable, and the collar is super cute without being twee. However, it's very form fitting, and while the medium worked for dinner out or a cocktail party, it was way too tight for work. The knit is also thin, so (for me) shapewear was a must. I'd size up if you want to wear it to the office.

I LOVE THIS DRESS. Beautiful forest green, comfortable, and lined. It is well tailored and hugs your curves for maximum femininity without being OTT for the office. It falls just past the knee and the 3/4 sleeves keep you warm in winter. Gorgeous and elegant. RENT.

Winter chic
Loose fit, comfortable, very warm, stylish. When I first put it on I was worried it would be "too much fashion", but I loved the look with flats and skinny jeans and received quite a few compliments. This top is exactly why I love RtR: I would never buy a mint green jumper with a built in scarf, but turns out it's fabulous and fun.

Tory is all about the '70s lately and I'm here for it. The dress is a gorgeous silk and the colors are vivid oranges, ambers, and blues. The length was great for the office.

Opening in front!
Pros: gorgeous fabric, length, loved the sleeves, and beautiful feminine details. Lovely to wear to dinner or a party. Con: OMG it's basically open in front. I might be fashion-challenged, but I couldn't figure out how to tie the dress so I wasn't showing a bit of my stomach. So this is not a dress I could wear to work, especially I work with a bunch of dudes in a tech company.

Super cute jacket-- try it with the dress as in seem in the photo!
I rented this bomber with the dress as part of my unlimited subscription, and received tons of compliments at work. It's a very warm, fun jacket that works with jeans and a t shirt or a dress.

Lovely dress-- just formfitting!
I rented this dress with the matching bomber jacket in the same style. The cut of the top and sleeves are lovely: I appreciated a high neckline for the office and the sleeves are perfect (I wish I could find more dresses with this kind of 1/2 length, loose fit!). It's so comfortable, warm, and flattering, and I loved the red diamond pattern. One caveat: the dress is very form fitting below the waist, and I definitely needed shapewear to feel confident in it.

Beautiful, comfortable, chic
This is such an ideal top for everyday: comfortable, fashionable, and flattering. It is a heavy, soft cotton that drapes beautifully and the cobalt blue is stunning. Versatile as well: I wore it with jeans and heels to work and with stretchy ponte leggings and sneakers on the weekend. Lovely top.

Very cropped!
Beautiful color and fabric. Loved the weight and groovy zippers on the sleeves. It is just a bit too cropped for me! I felt awkward wearing it to work as one false move and I'd be showing way too much midriff for the office. I wish I had a high waisted skirt to go with it.

Consider sizing up
This skirt is very form fitting and the fabric is not forgiving. I should have ordered a L (I normally wear a 6-8), because the M was so tight on my hips that even with shapewear it just showed too much. I wanted it to work as it goes SO WELL with the matching Tory Sport turtleneck (which is TTS).

Wanted to love, but meh
The fabric and print are just exquisite. The dress is also lined and comfortable, and I love the sleeves and simple details like the covered buttons. I just thought that it was a bit shapeless and did nothing for my figure. If you prefer a bit more tailoring, this might not be the dress for you.

Love the colors and the fabric, not for my shape
I wanted to like this dress, but it just wasn't flattering on my shape. Since it's a thick, tight, ribbed knit, it's not very forgiving.

Beautiful and versatile top
Our hot water heater is broken. The dishwasher isn't working. Work is insanely busy. My son is a teething nightmare. I wore this top and felt like a million bucks. It's tailored and structured with a thick fabric-- meaning it's incredibly flattering. The dark green color goes great with jeans and short sleeves makes it a perfect transition piece from early fall to winter. It is slightly big, so consider sizing down. RENT!

Lovely- just huge
Beautiful top. The leaf-green color goes perfectly with blue denim. The fabric has some weight to it, so the hang and draping is beautiful and flattering. It's cut very large though, so consider sizing 2 sizes down.

Don't let the bunching of the fabric on the front of the dress turn you off. I find that Tibi can look odd on the hanger and then fit like a dream, and this dress is no exception. Beautiful tailoring, love the fabric, and just unusual enough to feel oh-so-stylish at work. RENT.

Beautiful fabric, color and fit on the body of this dress. I wanted to love it, but the puffy sleeves were a bit too "Little House on the Prairie" for me. If you love that trend, go for it.
