Print not Flattering
Fit was fine but the very large print was overwhelming on my frame and made my body look larger.

Classic Work Frock
Lovely little work dress. A little bit snug in the waist and over the belly. Worry that a 12 would have been too big, so some heavy duty spanx saved the day.

Summer in Dress Form
Such a fun and happy dress. Fit like a dream and very comfortable. Not enough chest to fill out completely, but adjustable straps were the saving grace there. Wore for summer evening flitting about the sunflower fields. Nice fabric for spicy nights.

Fancy in Floral
Fit for an hourglass shape - perfection. Teeny bit snug in the arms but when perimenopausal, we work with what we’ve got. Felt so beautiful. So many compliments. Is a bit warm since it’s a heavier dress. Keep in mind for summer wear.

Beautiful, Tropical Island Worthy!
Stunning. I wish all wrap dresses fit so well. Everyone at work asked me to whisk them away on whatever tropical island I was on in my mind. One of my favorite rentals yet.

Fun Dress But Awkward Fit
I wanted to love it - the style, the pastel colors, the unique shape. But it just didn’t work. The top half of the dress felt out of proportion with the slim fit and ruching of the bottom half. I felt more football linebacker than svelte mermaid. And I couldn’t get over the location of the tag. Nice idea but execution needed a bit more thought.

Snug in the Hips
First time trying Farm Rio, and the dress was too tight over my hips. Will try an XL next time. Regardless of the fit, it’s a beautiful dress!

Great color contrast but swallows the body
I wanted to love this dress because I love the black and yellow contrast and the animal print. But I felt lost in this dress, even at 5'9". The length was awkward as it wasn't a full maxi dress but hit my calves in a weird spot. I felt frumpy.

Tiger Stripes are the new Leopard!
Stunning dress from the shape to the material. Feels so luxurious on and makes a statement! It's a little fitted over the hips but still manages to drape the body beautifully.

Perfect Shade of Green! Great for the upcoming Holidays!
I received so many compliments on this dress. It flares a bit along the hips, so it's not so fitted. I found the 12 a little big in the waist and hips, so I'd say it runs a little big. The high neck and billowy sleeves give it a 70s vibe that I love. Debating keeping this one a little while through the upcoming Holiday season since it's such a deep shade of green. Really beautiful dress all around.

Love the Red Lace!
One of my favorite Rent the Runway Rentals. Love this dress so much I now own it! It's more of an orange red than a red with bluish undertones, so it's that true fire engine red. It's short on my 5'9" frame, but it's so figure flattering that it somehow elongates my legs. I also love the back details and how comfortable it is to wear.

Standout Sparkle and Shine!
This is a sweet little dress with subtle sparkle. If you want some shine without going full on disco ball, this is your dress. It was a little shorter than I would have liked, and since I went with a 12 instead of a 10, it was a little roomy in the waist. Was perfect for date night and a night out in Nashville!

Romper, Date Night Magic!
If you're not a romper fan, be prepared to be converted! This lace beauty will be your date night go-to for the rest of time. Tall ladies be warned, your ass will hang out. But it's worth it! On my 5'9" frame, the shorts hit mid-thigh. However the way the shorts are cut, they actually elongate your legs, even with heavier thighs. I chose a 12 instead of a 10 in the hopes for a looser fit with a bit more length. It was definitely a bit roomy in the waist. Loved this so much I bought it!

Perfect Animal Print Dress for Fall!
This dress is the cutest! It looks great with flats, heels and booties, making it versatile for work, night and everyday wear. It was a tad short on my 5'9" frame, and the flirty skirt definitely flips up Marilyn Monroe style if it's windy. Received tons of compliments on the look and fit of the dress. Material is nice and light and very comfortable. The longer, ruched sleeves also give it some of those extra little details. Add this to your list for fall!

Work
When this dress arrived, I thought there was no way I was getting it on my body. But after wiggling myself into it through the neck (as described), I was surprised how well it fit. It's definitely body conscious but not in that too tight, super sexy kind of way. The best thing I can compare the fabric and feel to is a wet suit. This dress definitely flatters your curves and sucks you in at all the right angles and places. If you're on the petite side, you may be swallowed up by the length. I was surprised at my height to see the dress just past my knees. Only issue with the fabric is that it's the kind of black fabric where all marks leave a chalky residue that's hard to brush off.

Mostly wore this for work and out on date night.
I love this jumpsuit so much, and if the length of the pant legs were a little longer, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. But at 5'9", the pant legs were a little too short so I had to wear flats. Even with flats, the jumpsuit was a tad too short for my liking, but it made my body look fantastic everywhere else so I ran with it. I rented this as part of the Unlimited subscription, and I kept this baby for a few months, wearing it as much as I could until it was past its prime. The back button up detailing is beautiful, and I received so many compliments. Only minor issue from a work standpoint is that the top is a little revealing in the sheer areas around your bosom. I wore a black bra underneath so it gave the appearance of a black tank. Hands down favorite rental ever.
