Gorgeous print and a hit if you like baby doll
This is an oversized dress but the print is so cute and all the details are lovely. You have to really like the babydoll style otherwise you'll feel like you are swimming in fabric. There is a seam that seems like it should be under your breasts so women with a larger chest might feel like it fits oddly.

Cute design but worn out
I like the idea behind this bag and it can fit a days worth of things, however, this bag has seen better days.

Rent this!
I got a ton of compliments wearing this one. Overall very sexy but chic. The torso was a little short on me- if I pulled it down it showed too much cleavage so it was a balancing act all night. Length was perfect with heels.

Comfy romper
The scalloped sleeves were very cute and this romper was super comfy. It was not super form fitting but nice for a day of exploring.

Comfortable sequins
Short and tight but VERY comfortable. I felt like it made my upper torso/shoulders look large so it didn't photograph great. I was able to wear a regular bra with it even with the low back.

Sexy and fitted
Loved this unique dress! It is a beautiful color, form fitting, but VERY short in front where the fabric crosses. I didn't need a bra with it, probably couldn't have fit one even if I wanted to wear one. There is no give in the fabric once you zip up so if in doubt, size up.

Unique but shapeless
Very beautiful but was difficult to pull off. I don't think the dress flowed well in the wind- it instead was clingy and showed every seam underneath. Vibrant color and the ruffles are pretty but I felt shapeless. Maybe better on curvier girls or with a belt:

HOT (temp) vacation look
This dress is so adorable for vacation but it is HOT! There is a lining underneath so very well made, but probably best for the beach days when the temp drops and it gets a little cooler at night. The zipper on my dress got stuck but other than that, was a great rental.

Not quite structured right
This dress is conservative but gives a statuesque silhouette. My issue was with the shoulder area: there is rubber piping that's meant to keep the dress in place but the fabric folds over so it was exposed. The back also tended to gap showing the interior of the dress. Possibly better for a larger bust or shoulders. I received this dress with tags still on :)

Simple, sexy, safe choice
You pull this dress on so be sure to not have every hair in place before putting it on. Cons: I'm tall so it was not floor length once I had heels on and there is a shelf bra seam you can see through the fabric. Pros: It hugs every curve, you can wear a regular bra, the back train adds interest.

Nice thick dress with low neckline
This dress had a nice heavy material and was very comfortable. It is low in the front and has a high slit that elevated it from a super conservative wrap dress. The lining in mine hung below the outer fabric but I was wearing tights and boots so you couldn't tell. The texture was unique and overall, this was an ok rental for a work event or somewhere you need to be a bit low key.

Runs VERY small!
The top is cute- scalloped edges and long sleeves for the long arm gals, however, it is super tight. I would have felt comfortable in a large but it definitely shows each rib, pant seam, etc. I didn't end up wearing this to dinner because there would have been no wiggle room. Very nice, just order 2 sizes bigger than normal.

Perfect amount of sexy without showing too much skin
I loved the style of this dress- the shoulder straps were unique and were easy to move around in. The slit added a sexy element. I wore this to a work event and felt covered up enough but still dressy and cute. The material was great. It was form fitting but very comfortable. Highly recommend!

Curve Hugger
This dress was easy to wear and definitely accentuates your curves. I saw other reviews mentioned snags on the mesh cutout and my dress came damaged, too. It didn't bother me for this event but if I wanted things to be PERFECT, I wouldn't choose this dress and risk noticeable wear and tear. I'm 5'9 and the long was floor length even with 4 in. heels. I wore a 2 but absolutely would have preferred a 4 for fit/breathing room.

Eye catching blue and beautiful details
This dress is very pretty and feminine. The detail really pops on the bottom flair. Although formal, this dress can be worn at more casual events. I'm 5'9 and the length was perfect- might hit a little low on shorter ladies.

Large and short
I have a long torso and it was definitely too short- would maybe work better on a petite frame.

Flowy and beautiful
I loved this dress- such a flattering fit and the fabric is gorgeous. It didn't work out for my particular event but I would love to rent it again. It would make a beautiful vacation piece.

Pretty but tough to pull off
This dress is a golden/bronze and as much as I liked it- I couldn't make it work. The tummy area is very unforgiving- any little belly bump is visible. I think it would be a nice, conservative option for a holiday party as it doesn't particularly hug any curves. Very comfortable- the lining is a beautiful crimson.

Makes your figure pop
This dress is sexy but the length makes it appropriate for any event. It's very tight and may take some time getting used to. I wore a normal bra but the straps run long, I had to tug the top up to make sure my bra didn't show all night. Larger busts are probably best for this but it works for small chests too. I wasn't sure about wearing such a form fitting dress but ended up absolutely loving it.
