Size down
Love this but it's a whole lot of coat! I plan to size down x2 when renting again.

Love it if they sent the petite!
I loved this dress but unfortunately, the petite size I ordered didn't come so it was big in the shoulders, armholes, length, etc. I ended up choosing a backup idea I thankfully also rented from RTR just in case (for a single event). However, I'm going to try again for a wedding that's coming up and fingers crossed I'll get the petite sent to me this time!

WOW definitely a dress to impress
My only wish is for this to come in petite sizing. I went to an awards show with this dress and nearly every person I encountered complimented it. This is a fantastic dress that is so surprisingly flattering. It hugs in all the right places and poofs in all the right places. Plus the POCKETS. Absolute heaven. You can see sometimes the fabric bunches a little because I'm more suited to petites, like around my elbow / inner shoulders / lower back / & top of the hips, but it was a minor issue that I could solve with a little tug here or there as the night progressed. It was worth the little bit of work!

Comical fit
This is too funny. It's definitely very tight in the bodice for an XL but way too long in the arms. Did I miss the point of that?

So hard to say goodbye
If this sweater weren't so expensive, I'd keep it forever. And ever. And ever. But I'll have to settle for holding on to it until it's no longer cold here. Where do I begin about this sweater? The grey color is perfect - not too light and not too dark. The braids make the sweater stand out stylishly, and the placement down the length of each arm is appealing. The sweater looks expensive in person and is pulled together; the fabric seems high quality. The neckline has structure, stays put, and is out of the way of my chin. While it's not super soft, it's also not scratchy on exposed skin. The sweater is much warmer than I expected, and it's comfortable. It doesn't look or feel bulky. On a curvy type like me, it hugs the curves. It's also more of a crop cut. The look of this on the model in the product image is wholly different from what I'm experiencing in terms of implied length and slouchiness. I'm seeing none of that in reality on my end. On a curvy petite frame with a full bust, I am experiencing this sweater as form-fitting and cropped at the hemline (cropped at the top of the hip, and above the pelvis for sure).

Just warm enough and cozy
I enjoyed this sweater. Tip: It requires a long-sleeve layer underneath because the fabric is just a tad itchy on any exposed skin. I thought it would be too warm on a mildly chilly day, but it turned out to be just right. Glad I borrowed this one.

For smaller chests: great quality, nice flow, soft fabric, lovely dusty rose color
Being a 38G, this would not work on me, but I had to try. I love Vince stuff in general, but this dress isn't generous enough in the bustline to fit a large bosom, even if it was available in a larger size. On all my other curves, this dress was perfect. Giving it high marks for the great quality, nice flow, soft fabric, and lovely dusty rose color; for smaller bosoms, though!

Surprised to fall in love this
Lovely deep green color and subtle texture. Lots of room inside, which was unexpected. I had more room than I needed despite looking compact from an outside view. I really like the creative way it seals when closed, so all the items feel secure inside. This bag sat around for a week before I got around to using it and I wasn't sure what I thought at first, but now I'm in love. That said... I can't buy more bags! But I might hang on to it a little longer!

Very heavy weight, glam buttons, but works
I didn't think I would like this coat as much as I do. It's very heavy in terms of weight when carrying it or changing in/out of it, but it doesn't feel so heavy when wearing it. The buttons are a bit over-the-top glam, but it manages to work, especially for fancier occasions. I love the structure that allows the collar to stay popped. I might borrow this for a little while. I'm a comfortable size 14 in most clothes & coats, but this fit well sized down to a 12.

Warm, soft, cozy, nice fit
I loved this jacket! Highly recommend it for cold seasons. It's reversible. I always wore it with the fuzzy side inside. The color is pretty and it looks pulled together.

Great in the cold, wind, and rain!
The pink trim is adorable. Plus, it's warm, it's waterproof, and I love the roomy hood that has just the right amount of structure. I ordered one size smaller than I should have (my size was out of stock). I was pleasantly surprised that the smaller size zipped fully and seemed only a little tight over bulky layers. My area has been cold and rainy, which is super unusual, so I didn't want to invest in a coat purchase. I was thrilled that I could rent a waterproof coat! It's primarily an in-between solution for walking my dogs and running to/from my car during these strangely cold-windy-rainy-days, so I was ok with it being a little too tight over my layers. I just needed it to do the job. And it did! My correct size would've been perfect, but this is pretty close. In fact, I'll hang on to this coat a little longer since we have another few weeks of messy weather ahead. I definitely recommend this coat.

Wore for zooms shoulders up: below was too short and tight
This sweater is ok. It's warm enough. Not scratchy but not really soft either. I like the bell sleeves, minimalist color-blocking, and the cutouts above the hips. However, it's much more suited to someone slimmer and less busty. I got my usual size, which looked too tight from the chest down for my body type

Warm, soft, spacious
The color in my pics seems off. It looks more green in person with yellow threads woven in. Pretty colors. Probably better suited to someone who has a smaller bust but this is so cozy that I didn't care one bit. The sleeves are long which makes sense for the oversized nature of the sweater. The neckline seems more like a cowl neck than a turtle on me. Still cozy!

High quality, great colors, almost too warm
The quality of this sweater is great. I added a layer underneath because I thought it'd be scratchy, but I didn't notice it when wearing it. I wanted a warm sweater for the winter chill, but it got so hot that I took it off periodically in the office. The neck feels a little bit constricting after a while due to retaining so much heat. Regardless, I liked this enough to revisit it in the future, especially for ski trips. Also, the sleeves are just a bit long for petite people, but I tend to like that in warm winter sweaters.

Hard to return!
Love this deep purple color. I wore this several times since it arrived and it's hard to return. It's warm, not scratchy, fits petite shoulders and arm length nicely but is very forgiving in the waist and hips.

Soft, warm, would size down
Gorgeous color! I loved wearing this sweater. The neck was great. Also, not at all itchy. It was soft and warm. However, it was really big in the shoulder area for me and was roomy enough throughout that I would size down confidently for narrow shoulders.

Sturdy, great color!
The color is gorgeous and it's well-built. I may never send this back. Almost too small for essentials and an iPhone, but it all managed to fit. The design has openings on the bottom, so you don't want to put anything small in it that could fall out, like coins or earrings.

Kept this a long time
Such a pretty little bag. It's sturdy, sunny-bright, clicks closed on the magnet reliably, and fit just enough essentials, small wallet, and iPhone. The chain was very heavy and could be a bit loud when it bumped a surface or was put down. Also, the chain moves in the purse loops, so the yellow leather strap moves around awkwardly. I was adjusting it a lot. That said, I kept this for a long time and will rent again if I can!

Great color, fabric, and drape
Love this top. It's got a silky finish with some sheen, pretty muted yellow color, and a nice cut that flatters. I ended up not wearing it out because it requires a more polished/upscale camisole than what I had on my trip. I'll try again later when I'm back home with more complimentary options.

This was too small to cover my chest yet too large everywhere else. That said, I love the colors. Wish it fit busty bodies so the top would close.

Loved the color and fit
This top is so cute. Great blue color. The straps would fall off my shoulders a bit, since I have a petite frame, but I got around that by adding a knit cardigan. I was surprised that it also paired well with a sports bra for a more casual sporty look without the cardi. Neckline was perfect. Not too low. Forgiving for large bust and a little extra weight in the torso. Hides it well.

Nice shape
This was nice on my busty figure because it made my waist look tiny and balanced my bust with the hip-length flare. I could see how the bottom flared part could fly up if there were a breeze. Strictly for indoor occasions unless you don't mind showing some midriff.

This has a slight pink hew that I didn't expect which made it work for all sorts of things in my closet. It can be worn as a choker or not. The clasp is huge, sturdy, and super easy to use. Also, great for work or casual or dressy events alike.
