Cute and quirky
Very easy to wear although I struggled on pairing footwear. I wore it to a casual Friday at work and to the movies. Nice thick cotton and perfect length for me.

Impossible zipper
This fit fine but with the restrictions of the sleeves I could not react to zip the dress all the way on my own. I was traveling for business and ended up asking a random woman in the hall of my hotel to do it for me. I had no choice. Getting it off was just as difficult but I managed on my own. Also it was low cut. Thankfully it was easy to safety pin closed to ensure work appropriateness. I would not rent again.

Great color, awkward fit
I got a lot of compliments on the color but it was a bit of a frumpy, awkward fit. The armholes were too big and the empire waist was unflattering on my petite frame.

Petite size was smaller all the way around
I first ordered the 4R because the petite wasn’t available and I planned to wear platform heels so I figured I could pull off the longer dress. It pooled on the floor and was roomy in the bust. It just wasn’t flattering. The 4P became available but I couldn’t wear it either. Not only was it still long but it was quite tight and uncomfortable in the bust and very difficult to zip. It also was fine but nothing special. The pattern in the picture is much more apparent and rich than in person. It was kind of drab.

Heavier throughout the day
These are great for a night out or an event but I wore them to add something to an all black work outfit, and they ended up feeling quite heavy by the end of the day.

Unflattering
Oversized and awkward. The drop shoulder and poof of the sleeve was very unflattering. I like an oversized sweater but the added poof ruined the look. I didn't wear it.

I felt it looked best with high heels, given I’m only 5’3”. Although a lot of material and a somewhat conservative look, the fitted bodice is very flattering.

Love this dress but it’s not breathable and the slit made it difficult to sit appropriately while on stage for a panel event. Otherwise, I loved it and got tons of compliments.

Unexpectedly flattering
I rented this specifically for a rodeo themed event at work and also ended up wearing it to a broadway play. I got so many compliments. My 16-year-old nephew and his friend said “my drip was fire.” It’s sized like jeans and I went with my normal jean size. I might end up buying it, I liked it so much.

Tight in the bodice
I should have listened to other reviews and sized up. It was tight in the bodice. The buttons were straining a bit but it wasn’t uncomfortable. I do have a straight middle/ribcage/waist though so your regular size may fit if you have a slender middle. It fit well everywhere else. I got so many compliments though. People stopped me on the street.

Easy outfit
This dress was comfy and cute. I got a lot of compliments. It’s a breezy fit so it’s a little shapeless but the pattern is fun and it’s so easy to throw on. It’s a casual look but I felt pulled enough together for work.

Little house on the prairie?
This dress is a bit dowdy, at least on me. I’m shorter and with the pattern and umpire waist, I get a sister wives vibe. Higher heels probably would help but I don’t have any in an appropriate color. Also it’s tight in the arm holes but quite voluminous in the skirt. I did get a compliment from our elderly security guard at work, so it appealed to someone!

Perfect summer work dress
I’ve worn this so many times and have considered buying. I’ve had it a full month now and get compliments every time I wear it. I think the picture angle and how I’m sitting shows more cleavage than it actually shows. It’s lightweight enough to wear on a hot day but with the long sleeves it’s perfect for an air conditioned office. It’s great day to night, especially for after work work events. Rent this!

Size up if you have a chest
I wasn’t able to wear this as it was too tight in the bust and waist. I may size up and try again as it’s a nice weight and easy option for a casual day dress. I’m usually a small or sometimes even extra small in most brands but I’ll have to try a medium next time.

Size down
Loved the bigger, baggy fit. Cute with a smaller top to run around for errands or casual day out. I got my normal size (26) and they were quite large in the waist and stretched out with wear. I should have gone down a size.

I wore this to my holiday work party and got tons of compliments. It’s form fitting so it shows everything. It’s also synthetic and it made me super hot. It’s not breathable. Great for the party but I won’t rent again.

Great work pants
I got a lot of compliments. They added a little character to my work wardrobe while still being a good basic. They are thin so I wouldn’t wear on a colder day. I sized up as I usually do with Reformation and they were a little roomy but quite comfortable. I’d rent again.

Relaxed look
I went two sizes up based on other reviews. The waist was a little big but I liked the look. I actually ordered them a size down in my next rental and although they fit better in the waist I didn’t like the look as much. I wore these comfortably on a flight and around town on a trip to Asheville. I got a ton of compliments and I wish I purchased them. I looked online to buy new but they’re sold out.

As others have said, if you have a bigger bust, it’s very tight and you might want to size up. It fit great everywhere else and I got compliments but I could only wear it for a few hours.

Easy day to night
With the slit and open back, it’s fun for evening. Slip on a jacket and it is great for work. It’s a thicker material. Easy to adjust with the ties. Fit comfortably. I’m shorter so the slit wasn’t too revealing. I can see if you have longer legs it may not be work appropriate.

Cute
I’ve gotten several compliments the few times I’ve worn this. I’m considering buying. It’s 100% cotton and washable, which is a plus. It does poof a little in back given it gathers so tightly at the waist and there is a lot of material. I just left the belt end hanging, which seems to work best. I’d rent again if I don’t end up buying.

Lovely
Great work blouse. I love that it’s 100% silk as I don’t love synthetic material. It was breathable and comfortable. It fit perfectly and didn’t gap at the bust like another blouse I rented. I got several compliments. It isn’t exactly my style as it’s fairly bright but it was nice to mix things up.

Awkward fit
I loved the way this is styled on the website; however, it was too warm to layer the day I wore it. It’s a great pattern. It just didn’t work for me. It gapped slightly at the bust but fit everywhere else. A problem I sometimes have. The sleeve cuff style was also awkward. It would slide up and get stuck at my elbows, which wasn’t particularly flattering.

Super cute but not leather!
I got so many compliments on this coat. It’s stylish and warm and fit perfect in the XS. I thought perhaps I’d purchase and when I went to look at the price I was flabbergasted! It’s listed as leather in the description and a similar coat on the Ipsos website also states leather, but the tag in the coat says 100% polyurethane shell and polyester padding and lining. No way is this s $1500 coat! Very disappointed.

Awkward fit
I saw a lot of great reviews for this dress but it didn’t work for me. The sleeves were super long (I am petite so to be expected) and the material was loose and oddly puckered in the torso area. I don’t think sizing down would have helped.

Unremarkable
I’m normally a 4 and although the 6 fit fine, the 4 probably would have fit as well. It was comfortable although the elastic at the bust eventually felt a bit restrictive as the night went on. It hit at a weird spot. Overall the dress was just meh. I feel like it looks better in pictures than real life. Not a dress I would pick up to try on at the store and I wouldn’t rent again.

Classic and comfortable.
I’m 5’3 32D and usually 122. I ordered the dress for a charity gala and then proceeded to gain several pounds on a two week trip to Europe. I was nervous the dress wouldn’t fit. But it did! It was comfortable and forgiving. The velvet and cut out details elevated the simple black dress. It was slightly longer than tea length on me, which was perfect for a formal event. I usually struggle when renting longer dresses since I’m short. This worked perfect. I would definitely rent it again.
