Itchy
This itched my neck like crazy, couldn’t wait to take it off.

Lots of compliments
Wore at 33 weeks, the fit felt off at first with the legs tighter than I would have expected and the belly area looser but everything stretch out with wear. I got a ton of compliments and they were very comfortable

So soft
Wore these at 32 weeks, RTR recommended a small but I got a medium given how pregnant I am, a small prob would have worked as they stretched out during the day. I was a 6 pre-pregnancy and have gained about 25 lbs for reference

Low cut
I put this on and thought it was damaged - kept looking for the top button. I got a small at 30 weeks (size 6 pre-pregnancy) and it fit great other than needing to wear a cami underneath - what you see in the pic is bra. Comfortable, good for a preggo fall

Would be perfect if it had pockets
I wore this 28-29 weeks having gained a little over 20lbs so far and it fit great, I didn’t find it small or tight the way other reviewers did and I’m glad I didn’t size up. Very comfy, lots of compliments. If it had pockets it would be perfect

Not maternity friendly
Given that this is stretchy it seemed like a good maternity option but at 27 weeks in my pre-pregnancy size it kept falling down, even though I kept pulling it over the bump. I don’t know how it would have fit if I wasn’t pregnant but definitely NOT a good maternity option

Bump friendly
I got this at 25 weeks pregnant in my pre-pregnancy size despite the fact that I’ve gained enough weight already that I’m sizing up in some maternity styles - this runs huge. I don’t think I would have liked it at all if I got it not pregnant but it works with a bump and this new butt I’ve grown. The buttons on the wrists are annoying

Casual and comfy
I rented this at 17 weeks, I would have gotten a medium but only small was available and other than it being shorter than I would have liked definitely worked. I will probably get it again later in my pregnancy in the medium

Size up
13 weeks, I went up one size from pre-pregnancy based on reviews (I’ve also gained more already than I would like to…) and they were snug when I put them on but they stretched out over the day. I love this type of maternity pant for the second trimester when nothing fits but it’s too soon for real maternity clothes. The legs are a bit flared which I didn’t expect.

Great winter maternity option
I wore this at almost 37 weeks and fit in my pre pregnancy size. Very comfortable. Not a maternity dress but still works!

25 weeks pregnant
Came NWT which is always fun. I probably should have sized up given I'm almost to 3rd trimester but it mostly worked. Definitely shows everything, would have been more comfortable for work if it was a little longer (which it may have been without the bump). Very comfortable though.

Maternity work dress
This showed up as a maternity style but it was clear from reviews that it's not actually a maternity dress. I got an 8 (pre-pregnancy size 6) and it worked for my 5.5 month belly, but definitely a little snug. I don't think it could reasonably be worn in the 3rd tri or by anyone carrying bigger than I am.

So many compliments
I rented this as a casual Friday mix up on my standard work sheath and it's truly one of my favorite rentals ever. I had no idea what the graffiti said until my partner read it to me when we were out after work (very versatile) - it says "art is truth" all over it. I've never had more compliments on an outfit at work. It does wrinkle but don't let that stop you. It's a standout piece - very Alexis Rose.

Cute, comfortable, easy to wear, probably too short for work but I wore it anyway and got multiple compliments.

SHORT
I got this to wear on a boat, and it really can only be worn as a beach/boat cover up. VERY short. Cute and easy to throw on. Don't try to wear this in public if that public isn't a beach. And don't forget to bring your mask obviously.

This was adjustable so it could be as cropped (or not) as you wanted. Very easy to wear, loose and comfortable. The camels are adorable.

And on quarantine day whatever...
I got this for my entertainment while in quarantine. BF loves it, although refuses to follow my black tie quarantine dress code and spent the day in PJs. If I was to leave the house, I might size down. I'm a solid 6 with no boobs but wide rub cage and I feel like a small would have fit better...but again, this gorgeous frock didn't leave my house. Stay safe and wash your hands!

Nonstop compliments
I was a little hesitant about this one because it gave me a "little house on the prairie" vibe but it was at my house and very comfortable so I went with it...and got more compliments from strangers than anything else I've ever worn. People LOVED this dress. Paired it with knee high brown boots and wore a nude bralette- you definitely need something under it. Completely true to size.

See through!
I got this with no reviews and it came with tags so I was able to learn that it's completely sheer. The "lining" is a sheer mesh like the top layer. The pattern makes it less obvious that you can see directly through, but only rent this if you're on with knowing people can see everything.

So comfortable!!
The material feels like loungewear but it looks completely polished and professional. I wore this to work two days in a row (different offices, different people), got lots of compliments both days, and was as comfortable as if I was wearing PJs. There's no zipper, you just pull the whole thing on and off. Bathroom trips were easier than other jumpsuits I've worn. Highly recommend!

Size down!
Gorgeous green color, runs huge. I'm very much a size 6, in some designers (Black Halo etc) need an 8, And this hung off me like a potato sack. I could probably have worn a 2.

Very JLD on Veep
I went a size up based on reviews and shouldn't have. The 8 was definitely wearable, but the 6 (my normal size) would have looked much better - there was obviously too much material on the 8 for my body and it didn't hug like it should. The color is gorgeous in person and it's a nice thick but not too warm sheath. Perfect for work, rent your normal size.

Emerald city
Rented this without any reviews so went with medium (I'm a very true size 6) and it was too big and a little boxy. The belt helps, but it was also too big and hanging below the dress so I had to tuck it into itself. Gorgeous color, size down.

LOVE
Rented for vacation and used this bag to death. It was perfect. The size was great - small enough to be cute to wear but also held everything I needed (change of clothes, wallet, iPad, sunscreen, towel, chargers, water bottle). I literally used it every day for 8 days straight and couldn't get enough. Went to the beach, hiking, etc. Sorry for all the sand that was returned with it...

Not waterproof!
Rented for vacation, it was a great light windbreaker for when the temperatures dropped at night but did learn the hard way that it's not waterproof. Very cute though, fit with the tropical ambience of vacation. Like others said it's slightly cropped, I sized up to have an oversized fit

Couldn't wear
These are designed in such a way I couldn't physically get them on my ears. The back hoop gets in the way of the earring actually going through the hole. Impossible to wear. Don't waste your time.

Easy to wear
I'm a solid 6 and the 38R was perfect, slightly tight in the thighs, but I'm an athletic build and it wasn't tight enough to make the pockets pop out. I could keep my phone in the pocket easily. The jumpsuit is so comfortable and a nice thick material. I didn't wear a bra, obviously, and there was definitely a risk of nip slippage because it was loose on top but somehow everything stayed in place. Overall comfortable and flattering, easy to dress up or wear out.

Sort of weird fit - definitely tight on the arms and couldn't wear over a sweater. Like others said, very boxy.

Mullet dress
Should have read the reviews. The fit was perfectly true to size but like everyone else said, way too short. I'm 5'6" and thought I would be wearing this to work - NOPE. Just barely covered my ass. Business up top, party on the bottom.

This is sans safety pin
Clearly this requires a safety pin, unless you're cool with flashing. I guess you could use fashion tape and make it dramatic? Just don't wear a cami under it, that looks silly. It came with holes from previous safety pins and a quick pin makes it more appropriate. Not something I would wear twice, but it's fine.

Fun and light
It wasn't fully clear from the model's pictures but this is definitely cropped. It was very comfortable, cute and flowy. Perfect for a hot summer day. It's a little low cut and there were a few times my bra was definitely showing so beware.

weird fit
I put this on and the person with me told me it looked like it was too big (I'm a size 6, was wearing the small). It runs both too big and too small. It was too big on the top but tight around the butt. I'm pretty flat chested so the gaping in the chest was ok, but would have required fashion tape to not flash people. Overall the fit was too bizarre to actually wear.

So itchy
This is much more conservative than it appears and made me look matronly. It was also SO ITCHY. Didn't end up wearing, I can't imagine what an entire night of that itching would have been like.

Lots of compliments
The material is surprisingly thick and sort of bunches - it definitely runs big, I had more than enough room in the small and I'm a solid size 4-6. It's sort of a thick spandex so very stretchy and form fitting. It's not something I would want to own, but made a good rental.

Not work appropriate!
I loved this dress. Fits like a glove and looked amazing on. BUT this is not at all work appropriate. It's short and tight- would be great for a party or event but not something I could wear to work. Will likely rent again for the right event.

Sexy but classy
This arrived as I was about to walk out to go to the event I rented it for. I tried to do a quick change but as everyone else said, the straps are way too long. If I had more time I could have taped them down and made it work but I didn't. Definitely a sexy dress, but the midi length makes it appropriate.

No belt!
Like others, I didn't get the belt. Made do with a skinny black belt. The fit was true to size and the pants were very comfortable. Definitely wear with a tight top so you don't look frumpy!
