So much sparkle!
This dress was such a hit. I got many compliments. I usually wear a size XS but there is a lining in this dress that isn't stretchy. So I ended up wearing the S as it was a better fit. The length is great for short people. The dress is black and gold - for some reason I thought it was navy and gold so just FYI. The area near the armpits was a little bit scratchy but not so much that it caused irritation (my sister in law in the pic, her dress caused irritation bc of the sequins). Would recommend to anyone for a night event!

Standout color and fit like a glove
I am obsessed with this dress. It is actually the second time I rented it. The dress has some stretch to it so it literally hugs your body. Can wear regular underwear and not have it show through. The material is heavy and has some sort of lining so beware if you are wearing to an event where it will be hot out. Even though it has cap sleeves there is no restriction on your arms. Would recommend this dress. Plus the length is great if you are short like me!

So many compliments!
I rented this for a wedding and absolutely loved it. To me it seemed like the color was a bit more muted that the picture - more of a buttercup color. But def yellow so you need to like color for this dress! I got complimented by strangers on this. The length was more tea length for me as I am short. The material is a bit stretchy so hugs curves but shows everything - had to wear short-style spanx to not get VPL. One caveat - you cannot really raise you arms so dancing was a bit interesting - my husband kept calling my dancing "t-rex moves!" But other than that, loved this!

Perfect for a summer night out with friends
I absolutely loved this romper! I am usually an XS but the XS they sent me has frayed straps and I was afraid it would break while out. The S fit just as fine though! You will need someone to help you go to the bathroom as the back has a zipper and 2 buttons and it is impossible to button by yourself! But overall, a great rental! Would recommend to anyone!

Not for the shy type!
I rented this dress for a March wedding in New England. I am short so the dress did not look as short on me as it does on the model. The fabric is thick enough for a winter wedding but has absolutely no give. I could dance in it but I could not raise my arms past shoulder height. I am average chested so I was not showing too much cleavage but just enough. I highly recommend looking up the duct tape method on the web to do this - extremely helpful - as there was no bra that would have gone with this dress! I got a ton of compliments and enjoyed myself in this dress. Would recommend to anyone who is not broad chested given the non-stretch-ability of the fabric. I am usually a size 0 but the fabric just underneath the chest was so tight the size 2 felt more comfortable.

Loved this dress as it immediately made me feel like summer!
I rented this dress for my son's christening in July. It was very demure in its cut but so fun to wear. I got a ton of compliments! I paired this with nude espadrilles and gold bangles.

Dress fit perfectly. Very true to size. Color is a bit on the pink-ish side, which I didn't get from the picture online. Also, I agree with the other reviews that the hem is narrow - not stretchy at all. Only an issue if you want to bend down - had to hike up which was not so pretty :)

I rented this and the size ran big. Because of the fit, it looked floppy on me and not flattering at all.
