Runs short
Very cute blouse that makes you look put together with little effort. I have a long torso and this shirt is definitely short, difficult to keep tucked in if I raise my arms. I would recommend sizing up.

Beautiful dress but not for me
It’s a beautiful velvet dress and I did end up wearing for work event. However, I think I was the problem and not the dress. I have an athletic build and this dress made me feel very broad on top. Was hoping the corset would push up and support the girls but it didn’t (maybe better on someone larger chested?). Was extremely difficult to get into but if you plan for that it’s not a big deal. It did give me an hourglass figure which was nice. Overall, I think it would have looked much better on someone who is petite up top.

Girl boss vibes
I was pleasantly surprised. This is an excellent blazer. Nice quality and tailored fit. Serious enough for an important meeting but the color is the exclamation point in the email. You know what I mean.

Very shiny with shoulder pads
This coat was sooo shiny in person. It also had shoulder pads which I felt was overkill when it already had such a masculine feel. This one wasn’t for me, didn’t end up wearing.

The jacket has structure to it which I think is why I like it so much. Great everyday jacket you can throw on and go.

Get the set, cargo on trend
The long size was not available so I got the regular size and it still worked. True to size. The set is adorable. Dressed up for a work function with small heels, also wore dressed down on vaca with nude sandals. Loved the cargo look but I don’t want to commit to the trend by buying, so this was perfect.

Get the set
Wore this multiple times, I loved it. Cinches your waist and hugs the girls. True to size. Could easily have worn with jeans but the set was so cute. Can be worn dressed up or dressed down. Didn’t want to return.

I loved everything about this dress. The material feels very high quality, stunning color, gorgeous design and moves beautifully when walking. The versatility was an added bonus, could dress up with heels or dress down with white canvas sneakers. Received so many compliments.

High quality and perfect for spring. Runs maybe a tad big but not enough to size down. Beautiful piece to spice up corporate workwear.

Other reviewers are right, I sized up one size and I should have 2 sizes. The waist runs small. Also, these are so short. If you are tall, don’t even bother.

Pretty in pink
Felt polished and chic at work. Endless compliments. Fits true to size. One thing I will point out is the buttons. I did realize how noticeable they were until I received the piece in person. They’re odd snap buttons and it almost cheapened the look. Nonetheless, I still loved this piece. Would 100% rent again.

Beware shoulder pads
This runs extremely large. I’m a true size medium and the xs fit comfortably. The medium was so big and bulky, it way too oversized. I exchanged for the xs and I couldn’t get over the shoulder pads, they felt excessive. Didn’t end up wearing.

Sexy sweater
If you want to wear a sweater with a sexy touch, this is it. Could wear a regular bra, fashion tape should probably be used just to keep things in place. Slightly itchy like other reviewers said but totally tolerable. Unfortunately didn’t end up wearing, but it’s a cool sweater for the right occasion.

Get it
I was on the fence about this one. Needed a leather trench coat so I just went for it. There is a fine line between western fringe and contemporary fashion fringe. This is contemporary fashion fringe perfection. I wore this so many times and I cannot tell you how many compliments I got. It does fit on the larger side but it gives you room to layer. A jacket like this is the reason one does rent the runway. Not something I’d normally purchase but I absolutely loved having it. If you are on the fence, get this!

Cute sweater. I felt unbuttoned gave it a fresher feel but was good either way. The top button did come undone occasionally like other reviewers mentioned but only if it was pulled. Wasn’t a big deal. The color was my favorite part.

Chanel vibes, so cute
I unfortunately was not able to wear this. This is better suited for spring versus the winter. However, it’s so cute and the fact it’s a skort makes it even better. Total Chanel vibes. If you are in between sizes, size up. Runs a little on the smaller side. Might give this another try when it’s warmer outside.

This is so bulky and super fuzzy. Made me look really big. My husband said it looked like something from monsters inc. Can’t say he was wrong. Design is cute but the material is a fail. Did not wear.

Unflattering and boring
This dress did nothing for me. I didn’t want to wear it but was in a pinch and couldn’t find anything else for a shower event. It was so unflattering in pictures especially. Runs super short, hence the black tights. A dress like this is not why someone does rent the runway. Boring.

Fits true to size. Can’t really be worn like the model as I feel it does require a shirt underneath. Felt expensive, loved the color. Solid work top, got lots of compliments. Didn’t want to return.

Beautiful and high quality dress. It was adorable. I wanted it to work but it was too short. Would be perfect for a more petite frame. Keep in mind the slit in the back might not make it appropriate for some workplaces.

Amazing for tall girls
These are AMAZING. Long and slimming. The description says they have a 34” inseam so it’s no surprise they are long. I got away with sizing down, normally a 28/29 and the 27 fit PERFECT. Stretches a little as you wear them. If you are tall, GET THESE. Im 5’10 and could still wear small heels. I don’t know how I’m going to part with the pants, I’m want to keep them!

Have stretch, perfect for tall women
At first glance these look like leather pants on the model. But after looking further into it they indeed are not. These are long, great for tall women (I’m 5’10 and they were perfect length even with small heels). They have the slightest “shimmer” to them and lots of stretch. I’m normally a 28/29 and wore a 27 with no problem. They were okay, didn’t love the painted denim feel but I did get compliments in them.

Amazing fit
I am typically a medium. I rented the medium and the small and ended up wearing the small. I am 5’10 and unlike other renters, I did not feel the straps were too long. But I think my height and long torso contributed to the dress fitting right. I LOVED this dress. Since I sized down and the dress was fitted, I didn’t need to wear a bar. I want to buy this dress, I got compliments all night. The colors, fit, material… all of it was a home run.

Flattering and comfortable
Wore this to a wedding in the winter, it was warm and very flattering/forgiving. It is very low cut, however, there is a hook you can fasten if you don't want to show too much cleavage. My only complaint is it was a little short for me but I am 5'10. Other than that I LOVED this dress, didn't want to return it.

Simple and flattering
I normally am a size 6L, they didn't have that available so I went with an 8L and it fit fine. I could wear a strapless bra, the straps on the dress unhook in the back and are adjustable which was great. The long was perfect length, I could wear small heels and it grazed the floor. Dress is a bit simple, almost too simple, but perfect for a formal work gala that I needed it for.

The dress was form fitting but not the most flattering. Kind of blazé, didn't look as good in person. Wouldn't rent again.

Flattering!
Awesome dress. I am 5'10 and the length was perfect for a classy affair. Thick material which made it flattering to wear and I could wear a normal bra with it. I have a small chest, I imagine there would be a lot of cleavage for someone with a larger chest. The dark green color was beautiful. The slit on the side came up a little high when I sat down but it wasn't bad. I wish I didn't have to return it!

Great dress for a formal affair
Loved the dress. I listened to the other reviews and ordered my normal size six, but also sized up. Ended up wearing the size 8. Fit like a glove. The dress is tight in the chest/rib cage. Would not recommend for anyone with a large chest. Has a very defined hip area, I have a long torso so it lined up nicely with my hips. Wore small heels and the long was the perfect length. Would definetly recommend!
