Cute but neck choking
I love a turtle or mockneck but this was Very very tight around the neck. I decided not to wear it because I didn’t want to feel like I was being choked all day.

Summer Show Stopper
Wore this out for a night with friends and it was so comfortable and stylish! I sized up for the length and I'm glad I did- however it was a little big in the bust from doing this. If you're long in the torso like I am, I recommend sizing up for the extra length. Definitely a must rent!

Dance the night away in comfort and style!
I loved this dress and it was great for a summer wedding! It was super comfortable and the cut in the waist was very flattering- no need for spanx! The one shoulder and slit were the perfect amount of sexy and the material was good for a summer night. I loved the length and was still able to wear heels without it seeming too short.

Gaping Busy
The dress fit well everywhere except the bust as it gaps horribly. I tried using fabric tape to keep it together, but the fabric was too thick for it to stick. I think it would work if there was a hook and eye to keep it closed.

Springtime Blue!
I loved this dress. It's light weight and super comfortable. I think it runs a little on the big side, so if you're in between sizes, go for the smaller one (because of the elastic provided at the mid section). The color is super vibrant and I can see this dress from being daytime casual to a night out.

Your grandma's smock
A couple of things to know before renting: - there are gold strips of fabric in it and is a bit shiny and I feel it cheapens the style of the dress - it's kinda itchy - from straight on it looks fine but from the side, I felt it made me look bigger in my midsection- perhaps a belt would fix this?

Fun print but runs small at the top
I didn't get to wear because I couldn't zip it around the chest. It also runs very high waisted. If you have a larger chest or longer torso- size up

Pop of color top
Wore this for works zooms to add a little color. It was perfect for that need. It's a little short in length for those with longer torsos.

Easy winter dress
Wore this for work and it was comfy, but I wish the top was a little bigger so it felt like a shirt tucked into the skirt like the model shows. It could be because my torso is longer. It's on the heavy side, so good foe a cold day.

Perfect Spring Dress
I wore this to work and then afterwards. It is so comfortable and figure flattering! The one downside is that the clasp at the bust kept coming undone. I wore this with a bandeau as it was a little too revealing for work.

Unflattering Smock
Where do o begin with this dress. Like others said, it ran big- size down. I added a belt to give it more shape and try to make it more flattering. While it was so we all comfy, it didn't really do anything for me.

High waisted every day dress
The dress was overall comfy but for me it was high waisted. I also felt the arms were a bit tight. The tie at the waist was nice but a little poofy- I should have tied it off to the side

Hot Pink Show Stopper
Wore this for a date night and it was super comfy and light. The only thing I wish that was different is the length on the shorter side for it to be longer.

Unique but tight
I really liked this top and would have given it 5 stars but it ran pretty small on the top. I'd recommend sizing up if you have a larger chest. Otherwise it was comfy and super fun and flirty.

Best on taller gals
I loved the length but can see how it would swallow someone on the shorter side. The color was fun and it was an easy dress to just throw on and look really put together. I loved where it hit me at the waist and the pleat detail. It is a bit heavier so may not be best for really warm weather.

Your grandmas couch dress
I went out on a limb and tried a different pattern than I normally would have. I felt the print in the picture looked better than in person. I felt I was wearing a couch fabric pattern that you'd find in a grandmothers home from the 1960s/70s. If it was a different style of dress maybe it would have worked but I wasn't really feeling it. It fit fine- the touching up the middle kinda made it look like someone had cut you open and sewed you back up.

Heavy but moveable
The dress is on the heavier side but still comfortable. I liked that you were able to tie the straps tighter to provide a better fit at the top- without that it would have been too loose. Overall, it's fun, flirty, and classy. I did wear this with some shape wear to smooth out the midsection.

Long torsos beware
I really wanted this to work as it's a great color and style that can go from work to happy hour but alas it was too short. I initially ordered the regular length and boy was that short! I then ordered the long and it was still too short- major CT. This jumpsuit is not intended for those with long torsos as the extra length just applies to the legs.

Not super work friendly
I initially got this dress to wear at work but the key hole is much lower and gaps more than I thought it was going to. Dress was overall comfortable and really great length for a tall women. I added a light version of spanx just to keep things smooth. The white really stuck out and was a super clean yet modern dress with the asymmetrical hem.

Fun & flirty summer dress
Wore this dress to a friends pool/bbq party. It was overall comfy and surprisingly breathable given the fabric is a little thicker. You'll want to make sure you're wearing a black bra or bandeau as the top part of the dress shifts and at times exposes your under garment. The slit is adjustable where you can determine how much leg you want to show.

Easy work to play dress
I wore this to work with a sweater over it and then transitioned to a after work dress sans sweater. The material is silky and bit thicker so I warn against wearing it outside in the summer heat as it doesn't breath much. The print is super vibrant and cut is figure flattering. I had people come up to me complimenting the dress which makes it even better!

Comfy but needed readjusting
Overall the dress was comfortable. I did find myself having to retire the wrap to keep it tight and from exposing my chest too much. You'll also want to watch out getting up and from a table as the wrap tends to get loose and widens the opening at the bottom so wear you may expose yourself. I recommend wearing a strapless sticky bra to provide additional coverage and lift.

Easy and chic dress
I typically wear a size 10 but they recommended a 12, I wish I got the smaller size as the 12 kinda hung on me. I was able to fix it by adding a belt. The material is super comfortable and very light. Print was fun and the added ruffle at the bottom added good dimension.

The dress, while on the heavy side was overall comfy. Its not super moveable however- think needing someone to help out your shoes on and not being able to raise your arms.

Comfy but short
I loved the print and the material was perfect for hot Louisiana summers- thin and breathable. The only thing that made me give it 4 instead of 5 stars was that it was super short and I would have loved to have an extra inch in length.

Dress was comfortable but there was major gapping in the buttons. It also came with a button missing but I was able to hide it with a tie. The arms were a little tight too.

Breathable Bodycon dress with Flare!
The dress was overall comfortable. While the material is thicker- think those bodycon fitting, it was breathable. I felt it hit in all the right areas. I would have given it a higher rating but it was difficult to get it over my head as that space is very tight and not very giving.

Cute spring/summer dress
The dress was comfortable but I wish I went a size smaller and the one that was available to me gapped one the hips and stomach area making it seem more frumpy than fitting. It is a heavier fabric so if you're in a warmer or more humid climate it doesn't breath a whole lot.

STUNNING!!!
This dress is a dream! The fabric is lush and the fit is sexy and flattering. I would wear it around my house and vacuum in it- its that comfortable! I do recommend wearing a sticky bra to provide a little lift for the girls as it comes off a little flat without.

Fierce Print Dress
Wore this to my birthday and I loved it! I was concerned that it would hit me weird with my height but it worked out very nicely. The ruching around the midsection made it super figure flatting and I felt I should have gone down a size to not make it so baggy. Received a ton of compliments throughout the night.

Big in the chest
They recommended me to get the larger size and I did. While it fit in the hips and waist it was super baggy and big in the top area (as evidence by my bra showing). The color was alright- a little too orange for my taste. It's thinner material so better suited for sprint or summer. The pockets are a nice detail though.

Easy and comfortable
Wore for work and it was super comfy. The sleeves were super fun and adding a necklace to it brought some needed detail to the dress. It doesn't cling to the body and provided a little give so it was easy to move around in.

Green with Envy
The dress was super comfortable and work appropriate. The zipper embellishments on the sides and the sleeves add some cool funk to the dress. I got a lot of compliments on the dress and the color- really broke up the monotony of the winter blues you get in the Midwest. I did wear this with spandex to provide a slimming effect in the tummy section.

Just Eh
I enjoyed the pop or color and print but I felt the fit was a little frumpy. This is partly on my end because I wore the dress with the tie in the front and not the back (I didn't realize this until later in the day). It was comfortable and easy to throw on.

I loved this dress! It was comfortable, work appropriate, and slimming without needing any spanx . The ruching and overlay hits perfectly around the midsection and the length is great for us tall girls! The slit makes it fun but not too overtly sexy for work. I liked it so much- I bought it!
