Beautiful gown
Gorgeous, expensive looking gown. I’m 5’5” and usually a 0-2 top, 4-6 bottom. Only the 4P was available so I took a chance and it worked out although the 2P probably would have been better as the chest was pretty loose. Visually definitely added a few cup sizes. Paired with a 3 inch heel but could wear with flats.

Let it goooo
Ok this dress has major Elsa vibes but is so light, elegant, and beautiful. Loved the side cutouts and can wear it with a normal bra. I am normally a 0-2 top, 4-6 bottom and the size 2 fit perfectly. I’m 5’5” and paired with a low 3” heel but could also work with flats.

Not quite white
Heavier material than expected but comfortable to wear. Less white than I expected based on images and indeed very long. I typically wear a size 4-6 and this is the XS Regular.

Wanted to love it
Beautiful fabric and print but soooo stretched out in the waist. Literally larger at the waist than hips. Not wearable.

Not slimming at all, but a cute print. Very short waisted, so it kept riding up. I was constantly pulling it back down.

Loved this blazer for work. Comfortable and fitted. Rolled up the sleeves as the buttons touch and were a little noisy when moving my arms around

Good fabric, odd fit
I expected to love these pants when I took them out of the bag. The fabric is visibly high quality, feels soft and not itchy. For me the waist was super strange, the lower seam was more snug than the top seam. Not flattering in my opinion.

Good for casual or weekend wear
Rented for work but was too low cut for the office for me and didn't look as good with a tank underneath. Would definitely wear for other occasions, just didn't have an opportunity before returning. Color is bright and beautiful and fit was as expected. I didn't appreciate the sleeve/dropped shoulder detail until I put it on. Definitely a cute detail.

I loved this top with jeans but i also wore to work with a cardigan. Got several compliments on the pattern. Agree with others that it's a yellowish ivory, not white, and more textured than expected, but I liked that. Comfortable to wear, a little different, and easy to match.

Super cute but problem zipper
This is a such a cute dress that I had expected to purchase but unfortunately the zipper is very finicky at the waist seam. Suggest sizing up and having someone available to help zip it. I usually wear a 0-2 in dresses with this shape but feel like I would need a 4 in this dress to have some breathing room. Only other complaint would be that the floral layer is a very light / static prone material.

Well made blazer, great with jeans!
Rented this blazer for work but loved it more with jeans for a dressy-casual weekend look. Well made, good fit, and doesn't wrinkle. Looks professional and would pair well with several different colors.

Versatile option for work
Loved this top! Was confused with the reviews mentioning green, but now I get it. Also tried it on backwards based on another reviewer here and it definitely works! The shoulders were much poofier when backwards but the button detail was very cool on the back. I've never had issues with buttons gaping but did have some with this top. Would recommend an undershirt for work.

Great work and happy hour top
Loved the color and detail of this top. A little on the boxy side but the ruffle embellishments and floral pattern give it a very feminine look. Fit as expected, paired with a pink blazer instead of a cardigan as the sleeves fit better under the blazer.

Lovely and comfortable dress!
Liked this dress so much I almost bought it. Ended up being a colder night than I expected when I ordered it so paired it with black tights and booties. Sleeves are sheer but there's a built in black lining so unlike others I didn't feel that the body of the dress was sheer at all even without tights. I ordered a size up based on other reviewers and glad I did.

These were great pants for work. Paired with a wine colored sweater and pointed flats. A tad bit long on me (5'5"). Good amount of stretch so had a tailored look without being uncomfortable to sit in all day. Would definitely rent again.

I should've read the reviews. This top isn't wearable without safety pins. The front literally opens down to my belly button. No idea why this top exists.

Super bold, super big
I really, really wanted to love this blazer. The colors are beautiful and vibrant, and the silky blue lining is GORGEOUS and feels luxurious. It fit nicely in the arms and shoulders for me but it's so long and so wide I turned into a box with legs. I may wear it for a Zoom call but would definitely swap for a smaller size before wearing in public.

Comfortable work pant
First, I didn't realize these were navy until preparing to write this review. That said, I paired with a white top, black shoes and and black blazer and it looks fine. I'm 5'5" and these are well above my ankle. Like many others mentioned, I sized down and they fit well. Good amount of stretch make these super comfortable to sit in, a tad itchy initially, but didn't notice throughout the day.

Love love love
I should just buy this dress already. It's my second time renting it and I'm so happy with it. As others said, it is SNUG on top and the zipper is difficult to get past the seam at the waist even on the hanger. The size 2 definitely fits like a 0 but the fullness of the skirt means it works well for us pear shaped ladies. The fabric is thick and luxurious, the details of the floral pattern fantastic. Also, pockets.

Good quality work pant
This was my first pant rental and I was very nervous as I typically struggle with fit as my hips are a 4-6 while my waist is a 0-2. I would say the 4R fits like a 2 waist, 4 hip which worked out OK for me. There's minimal stretch so although snug in the hips, I wasn't worried about busting a seam at all. Definitely a solid work option, not particularly flattering in my opinion due to the ankle length combined with full size pockets that added bulk in the hip area.

Great top for work
Fit as expected. Comfortable, light, quality fabric. Cut a little shorter than some similar tops, but stayed tucked all day with a higher waisted pant. Sleeve length was great, and cuffs weren't tight at all (I got my hands through without unbuttoning).

Beautiful dress for a formal event
Great dress. Definitely helpful to have someone else do the buttons on the back. I'm 5'5" and wore 3 inch heels. On hard floors it was perfect but on carpet it got stepped on twice so I wish I'd worn slightly higher heels. There's a lot of fabric, and two separate layers, so it takes some effort to get up and down stairs without tripping on it. Otherwise great experience, lightweight and comfortable to wear!

Great unique dress!
I typically wear a size 2 but it wasn't available so I wore the 4. Worked out well since there's not much stretch in the hips. Pear shaped ladies, be prepared to size up. I wore nude undergarments because as others have said you'll see any other colors. That said, it's a beautiful dress and so unique! So glad I was able to wear it.

Classy, comfortable dress
The fabric of this dress is so gorgeous in person. The lining is gold, not nude as it appears in pics. Very classy and perfect for a fancy dinner. As others have said, the sleeves are snug, but I didn't need to go up a size for that, although I definitely needed help zipping. The pockets added more bulk than I'd hoped around the hips. While super comfortable, I didn't love the shape with the extra fabric on the sides. Overall a very nice dress.

Stunning dress
I've actually rented this dress in gold and was surprised that the fit was a little larger in the bust for this specific dress, assuming just due to wear. As with the other, it's a flattering dress for pear shapes, accentuating the waist leaving plenty of room for hips. It's a very classy, stunning dress, and little heavy from the sequins. I got compliments all night!

Fun, flirty dress!
Kate Spade makes fun, amazing dresses that fit well, are flattering, and usually have pockets which is always a winner. This one is no different. The pattern is really fun and bright, the fabric is high quality and moves and feels great. The only thing that confused me was the seam down the front of the dress. I belted it for contrast but you could go without.

Another great dress!
I read several reviews to get the size right and ended up ordering a size up for my backup, but should have gone down instead - thus the added belt. If you're pear-shaped and have a small bust and waist, definitely order on the smaller size. There's plenty of room in the skirt, which has just enough structured poof to give the dress a great shape. It's a very light fabric, and to my surprise, had a built-in coordinating slip in case you end up wearing on a windy day! The fabric has a great shine so it can be worn to a formal event.

Beautiful bling!
The necklace looked exactly like I expected from the photos. It was fairly short for the dress I wore, so I used a safety pin linked to the clasp to give it an extra inch and it looked great. Really sparkles under the light!

Sooo poofy!
I received this as a backup dress when the one I ordered wasn't available. The other reviewers aren't kidding: the skirt is HUGE. And it starts above the waist which felt weird. That said, I sent pics to friends and they loved it, the style just wasn't for me.

Another Kate Spade win!
Loved the dress! Heavy, good quality fabric that holds the skirt shape but has plenty of movement. As with several of the Kate Spade dresses I've worn, the zipper was difficult so my husband had to help.

The perfect showstopper
This dress definitely has the wow factor! The quality is obvious and it's really beautiful in person (and heavy!). I typically wear a size 2 top, 4 bottom and got a 0 and 2 based on other reviews. The 0 fit perfectly and still had some room in the hips. The zipper was a bit tough, which others have mentioned, but I found it extremely comfortable and no issues with the sequins scratching.
