Voluminous statement dress with pockets
This dress is so special! The fabric is beautiful; some sort of a technical fabric. The pockets are everything. The dress lays nicely on the body and you can wear a bra because of the position and size of the straps, which is such a plus when you have a large bust. Definitely size down. I think this is one of those rentals that either looks amazing on you or awful. If your frame can handle a voluminous dress, give it a go! Only downside is that it gets wrinkly, but I just steamed it before I wore it.

Received NWT. Sadly not for me
This dress is lovely and I wish it worked, but sadly it made me look and feel very “busty” but not in a good way. On the right body shape this dress would be beautiful. The straps are a bit hard to tie to make them look nice, but that means that the dress is very adjustable. The band at the back is great because you can wear a bra! Sadly I won’t be wearing.

A bit frumpy
These pants were a bit of a disappointment. For Max Mara they didn’t feel luxe or that special. Unfortunately they also looked frumpy on me. Maybe they would look better on someone who is slimmer? Sadly I’m going to return them with the tags still on.

Just OK
This one was a bit of a miss for me. It’s nice, just not as super special as I thought it would be. I loved the black piping detail, but didn’t love the fabric the shirt is made of. It seems a bit see through to me. It’s quite oversized IMO. I sized down one size and probably could have done two sizes smaller.

Voluminous pants!
The shape of these pants are great. I wish I had sized down one size though. These were nice and long so I could wear any of my shoes with them. I think they would be long for someone who is petite.

Great jeans for your butt. They run small!
These jeans are a nice fit. I find Le Jean runs small and these were no exception. They were a bit tight around the hips so I could have sized up one and they might have been more comfortable.

Very figure hugging
This is a nice dress and if you have no rolls or bumpy parts it might work for you. I thought it looked strange on me and it sort of hugged in all the wrong places. I might have needed shape wear. The dress itself is lovely quality, but sadly I didn’t wear it because I felt too self conscious.

Too big - size down!!
I got these pants NWT and unfortunately they were a lot larger than I expected. As you can see in the picture there is a few inches of space at the waist band. It’s a shame because they are beautiful pants and very well made. I could have worn a belt, but it looked a bit bunchy around my waist. I would rent again in a size down. They were also quite long so could be good for taller ladies!

Love this blazer. It’s oversized so size down if you want a less boxy look. It’s long so might look odd if you are very short.

It’s ok. Very boxy
Meh. I had high hopes for this jacket. Maybe it’s because I have a bigger bust, it just looked very boxy. It was ok, but not amazing. I sized down and would recommend sizing down as it is oversized.

Not for tall girls!!
I LOVE these jeans, they are soft, comfortable and look great…. but they are way too short (I’m only 5’8” so not super tall). It doesn’t mention that they are cropped in the description… I still wore them, but I wore them with big platform boots to play up the cropped pants. If you are shorter these jeans would be a perfect length.

This top is so chic and would work for all different sizes. I usually don’t rent basics like this, but this one is such a great piece. It is made from thick fabric and it is beautifully made. I feel so good wearing and I might end up purchasing.

Stunning designer dress - so chic
I loved this dress. It is so well made and the fabric is luxe. The little cape detail at the back is lovely and it has POCKETS!! I found it to be large and will rent it again a size or two down so it’s not quite so boxy.

Fun top - runs big
I love this top. The big sleeves are so fun and flattering. The front is quite open so it works for work with a tank top underneath. I found it to be large, but it worked. If I rent again I will probably size down.

Love these Ganni pants!
These are an animal print pant with a little difference because there is a bit of a pink wash. I got these NWT and they are so comfortable. I love that they are a unique color. I would say they are TTS. Such a cool pair of pants!

Stunning dress, wanted to love…
I like this dress. It’s not going to look good on everyone. When I received this dress I was impressed with the quality of the fabric. It is stunning. The design of the dress can make it look a bit frumpy (especially if you have a full bust) I wore it with boots to work because I hadn’t worn it yet and was about to return it. It’s very elegant and I imagine if you’re taller it would look even better.

Chic structured jacket
Veronica Beard doesn’t miss when it comes to jackets for work. I love this jacket and wore it a few times. This is why I enjoy RTR so much, this jacket was fun and I enjoyed wearing it, but I don’t need to own it. I can’t wait to rent another one of her jackets. They fit so well and look great. I took off 1 star because there is a zip at the front and I’m not sure what it does. I tried zipping it up, but it looked weird.

Stunning dress
I love this dress. Sometimes long black dresses can feel heavy, but this one is light and airy due to the sheer layer over the slip. When I first tried it I wasn’t sure if it would fit my bust, but it did and felt great; not too tight. For work I just pulled up the slip in the front and that worked to cover the cleavage. If I was wearing to a party I would just leave it as is and have a really deep V neck. Sexy and sophisticated. Veronica Beard is so well made. The fabrics are luxe and feel expensive.

LOVE this bag!
This is such a great everyday bag. I kept it for a few months. It is made of soft leather and an excellent size to throw everything in. I took off one star because the inside of the bag is not lined so the back of the leather sort of sheds all over your stuff - do NOT put anything velvet in your bag, it will get covered in leather fluff.

Oversized!! Size down.
This is a really cute sweater. I got it NWT. Didn’t end up wearing it because it was too big. It is meant to be oversized, but the medium was swimming on me. It’s basically cut like rectangle with arms and a neck hole. I wish I had gotten the Small and I probably would have been able to wear it. Unfortunately I had to send it back with the tags still on.

AMAZING dress!!
I LOVED this dress. Wore it to two separate formal events. It is well made and fits like a glove. I was able to wear a black bra with it and it looked fine. The only thing to consider is the fabric is quite thick and the dress is lined, so it is pretty warm. I wouldn’t rent this for an event in the middle of summer unless you know you’ll be in AC the whole time.

Gorgeous design - very little stretch!
I got these NWT and they are so cute. The bow detail on them is lovely. The only issue for me was the lack of stretch around the waist and crotch area. They felt pretty tight and uncomfortable to me, but fit everywhere else so I’m not sure I would want to size up. If you have curvier hips these might not be the right fit for you.

Not able to make cutout smaller
I really wanted to love this dress! It’s a nice fit, but unfortunately the cutout isn’t adjustable. It was too big for me and no way to make it smaller. If you’re ok with a bigger cutout this would totally work for you.

Love this oversized coat!
This coat is so chic. I love that it is a boxy fit and the sleeves are a bit long (they hit right at the middle of my hands). Definitely size down if you prefer a more smaller fit. The fabric is pretty light so it is a perfect fall coat. Or with layers in winter. I’ve been wearing it every day since it started to get chilly.

Love this top!
This top is so flattering. It has a sort of boxy shape, but doesn’t look too matronly because of the front slits and the pattern. I have a large chest and it was the perfect size (slight gaping, but I’m used to that). It’s really comfortable and I think you could dress it up and wear to work or do what I did and wear with jeans. Love it.

Nice pants, bit tight in waist
These pants are really nice. Great cut and the length was perfect for a cropped pant. Unfortunately the waist band was too tight for me. Such a bummer because otherwise they were great. I have quite big hips so it just cut in too much at the waist. I ended up returning them.
