Strange fit...
I usually wear a size 0 or 2, but I had to get a size 4 delivered last minute because the sizing on this dress ran so small that I couldn’t even zip the size 2 backup I’d ordered. I probably could’ve worn a size 6 and been fine, so plan on ordering 1-2 sizes up minimum (seriously) from your normal size! The main sizing issue was across the chest area. It was so strangely tight, and I could tell I wasn’t the only one who’d had an issue as the size 2 and 4 dresses I was sent both had a snapped stitch on the chest area where people had busted out of it. The torso was also oddly tight. Overall, I liked the color and pattern of the dress, but the fit/proportions left something to be desired. It was not my best RTR choice - order with caution.

AWESOME flattering maternity fit!
Wore this to a rehearsal dinner when I was 7 months pregnant, and it was a GREAT choice! Definitely stretchy enough to accommodate my bump - and comfortably/flatteringly so! People even told me they couldn't tell I was pregnant unless I turned to the side (I think because the fit of the dress was so nice!). I usually wear an XS/0 in dresses, but I sized up to a S for comfort, which I'm glad I did. I ordered a M for my backup size, but that would've been far too large elsewhere in the dress; as it was, the size S was even a little loose in the arms for me and hit me below the knee. Bonus: being able to wear a normal bra with this dress was really nice at 7 months pregnant ;) P.S. - the measurements I have in my profile are pre-maternity. At the time I wore this dress in Size S, I was probably more like a pregnant 34D and 130 lbs.

Perfect for many occasions!
I rented this jumpsuit for an outdoor dinner party. I rented at the last minute, so there was only a size 2 left, and I fluctuate between 0 and 2 depending on the designer/brand, so I was a little concerned this might be big. It was not. Size 2 was perfect so do size up if you’re at all concerned. Fabric was thick but stretchy, and the jumpsuit was really comfortable (it had pockets and a pleated front which gave me perfect space to feel comfy eating a large dinner!). I didn’t/couldn’t wear a bra with this, but the fabric was thick and supportive enough that I felt comfortable regardless. Wish I owned this because you could wear this for many occasions!!

Great choker
Loved the necklace! Great pop of color to go with a black jumpsuit I rented. I would caution those out there with larger/wider necks that this could be too small for you - it is a true choker with no stretch at all!

Versatile dress - but runs small!
Rented this dress for a wedding. I'm normally a size 0 or 2, so ordered a 36. I thought I ordered a 38 for my backup size but somehow ended up with a 40. 36 was way too small - like so small I couldn't even get it all zipped - so my only choice was the 40. The 40 was really only *slightly* loose, but I wore it anyway. It was actually sort of nice having it be looser, as the waist, bust, and armholes of this dress are cut quite small, and the bigger size was far more comfortable to eat and drink! Fabric was spotted from dry cleaning fluid on some of the light gray flowers. Overall, dress was great for a non-cocktail attire wedding to another nice dinner I attended that weekend - very versatile and flattering to many body types with a unique, colorful pattern.

Be careful - runs LARGE!
Definitely order the size down! I ordered the XS and it was too large, unfortunately. I was surprised because I've owned and rented XS Parker dresses before which have fit my small frame very well, but this particular dress was baggy, which totally doesn't work given the cool lines and look intended with the dress. Dress is well-made and would've been very pretty if it were the right size and I could've worn it...

Great conservative yet edgy accessory!
I wanted to make a dress I rented for a wedding feel a little edgier, so I rented these earrings and one other accessory with which to style the dress. These were great. I have relatively tiny earlobes and was afraid that the ear crawler wouldn't look right and would have a gap between my earlobe and the crawler part. However, these earrings were great because there were several holes that would "resize" the earring to fit snugly against your earlobe. I hate and can't wear big earrings, so this was the perfect way to get away from studs and add a little edge to my outfit! Would love to own these!

Wonderful, cool dress!
Rented this dress for a wedding rehearsal dinner, and it was perfect! Received tons of compliments from strangers and from friends/family alike! Totally comfortable because it is not skin tight, but fabric is not stretchy. Ran short (in a good, not icky, way) on me, and I'm only 5'3", but taller girls might need to beware depending on the occasion. Bright pops of neon green and fuchsia are really cool against the dark background of the fabric - the pics don't really capture that. Could be worn almost all year round but was perfect for transitional mid-fall temps. Dress is also really high quality (fabric is almost a grosgrain feel) and feels great on; it's also lined in some really great satin that feels so nice and smooth! Would definitely recommend this dress for so many occasions because it's so versatile. It could work for anything from a professional event to a wedding to a date night out! :)

Great, body con fit!
Rented this for a wedding in FL, so the bright colors were perfect! Runs true to size (38=0). Dress was nice and tight but stretchy so that it is still somewhat comfortable for sitting and dancing. Can be made dressier or more casual depending on your occasion; the colorful part could make this go anywhere from sundress to cocktail attire depending on how you style it. Easy to accessorize with black shoes/purse. I still give it 5 stars, but the fabric on the colorful part of the dress was a bit faded. You wouldn't be able to tell unless you looked at it very closely, but I could see it was slightly pilled and faded on the bottom...

Great fall/winter colors and pattern!
I loved this dress! I wore it to a cocktail attire wedding in late September, and it was perfect. The fabric was thick and stretchy, so it felt more substantial for the changing season and chillier weather than other dresses might have, and the colors were perfect for the more muted season but yet still bold and stood out in a sea of black dresses. The shape of the dress was nice, but I had to wear a strapless bra, and there was a bit of a gap just next to my armpits where (I think) the dress might just have been too big or maybe stretched out from previous use? I have a pretty big bust for someone of my size, so an XS dress shouldn't have presented a problem, so it might have been due to previous use. Regardless, it wasn't much of a problem, and the rest of the dress was a nice fit that accentuated the waistline yet still was a comfortable, cute fit with the flowy skirt. Great with black accessories, which makes it easy! I would definitely recommend this dress but would suggest minimal accessories because of the bold pattern - it doesn't need much! Definitely order your true size if not one down because the bottom half of the dress allows you room, and you probably want the top to fit nice and tight!

A little much...
I rented this to go with my dress to attend a wedding. It ended up being too large (not in its fit around my neck but just generally large for a necklace) and too much for the dress I rented, which was made from a bold, patterned fabric. I think this necklace might go great with a solid-colored and simple dress. This necklace is cool, but it's more on the statement side than the "go with anything" side, which is the only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5.

Bright and form fitting!
I rented this for an island destination wedding with casual cocktail attire. It was PERFECT! The color is brighter than it appears in the photograph. My husband described it as "day glow" (but not in a negative way!) It was great for the summery, tropical weather. The cutouts were fantastic - not in unflattering places yet gave the dress an on-trend update from a traditional sheath. The front cuts in quite a bit, so I didn't wear any type of bra, strapless or regular, just silicone pasties. It worked for me just fine because the 0 was tight and thick enough through the bust so that I felt supported. The only slight negative was that the bottom was pretty tight to walk or climb stairs in. But, that's the price you have to pay for the sleek fit of the dress, which is generally (honestly) comfortable and stretchy! I rented the 2 as my backup size and felt it was almost as tight at the bottom as the 0 but just slightly roomier in the bust area, which did not suit my needs.

Cool and versatile clutch
Clutch would go for many occasions from dressy casual to cocktail or even maybe a black tie. I rented it for an island destination wedding where I wore a casual cocktail dress. I liked the look of the clutch, but beware: it could only hold my cell phone and one tube of lip gloss! This is why I rated it 4 stars instead of 5. If you tend to carry keys, makeup, gum, phone, etc. (as one might for a long afternoon/evening at a wedding), this is not the clutch for you! As a side note, my husband complimented my clutch when I first finished getting ready. This is totally unusual for him to even notice an accessory like this, so it must have really caught his attention.

Awesome addition that's trendy, a little edgy, and elegant! My friend said I should buy it. It would go with anything from a casual outfit to dressier occasions, so it'd probably be worth it! A little difficult to figure out how to get it on, but otherwise great!

Too big, couldn't wear!
Pants were a cool idea for a night out on the town, but I did not end up wearing them. Ordered a size 0 and 2, and even size 0 was too big. Pants have no sort of adjustment or drawstring to adjust waist size, and I had at least an inch or two spare room. I understand the fit is supoosed to be large, but this wasn't the way they were supposed to be. Even if they had fit, the waist band was a ribbed cotton material that had pilled up and the sequins were not as vibrant a blue as they looked online, so i wouldn't have been 100% excited about them anyway.

Cute, casual fit that was perfect for an outdoor rehearsal dinner
This was a great fit for me in size 38. For once, the length was perfect for me because I'm on the shorter side. The fit around the waist was really cute and cinched me in. I got tons of compliments on the dress from fellow attendees and even from the restaurant's hostess. The dress is on the casual side and can transition from hot summer day to night easily, which was perfect for my event. The texture is really cool and comfortable. My only point of concern was that it was a little tight in the chest area, so much so that there was a bit of side boob happening... If you're a larger chested girl, maybe go a size up for your backup dress.
