Too tight around my waist
Unfortunately, I was unable to wear this dress, as the waistline had no give and was too tight for it to fit.

Beautiful stand out dress!
I really loved wearing this dress. I did have to use a few pins to make the top fit my bust--it was just slightly too loose--but otherwise it was a beautiful dress and fit well. I wore it to a fall wedding, which felt like a bit of a gamble given the bold print, but I'm glad I did. I received tons of compliments and felt great in it all night.

Sadly, not the dress for me.
I didn't end up wearing this dress for the wedding that I rented it for. The top was just not the right fit for me--it was a bit too large for my chest and the tie straps and ruffle along the bottom of the dress made me feel like this was a little too juvenile looking for me.

Not thrilled with the fit.
Unfortunately, this dress was a backup that had to be sent after the one I wanted wasn't able to be shipped to me because of a late return. Honestly, I just wanted thrilled with the fit of this dress. The material was heavy/thick and the fit felt a little boxy. The top also felt large to me. I didn't wear it and wouldn't recommend for a more formal event.

Loved this, but didn't end up wearing it.
I got this dress thinking I'd wear it to a wedding, but loved the second dress option more--so I didn't end up wearing this one. However, I did like how this looked on! The length was perfect, and the colors really pop. Maybe I'll have to rent it for another wedding in the future :-)

Elegant, sexy, perfect summer dress
I absolutely LOVED wearing this dress. It was lightweight and flowy, which was perfect for the summer wedding I attended. The color was a perfect complement to my skin tone and I loved the funky print on it. I received a ton of compliments and felt super confident in this dress.

The color is outstanding!
I really loved this dress and received so many compliments. It's HOT pink, and I loved the lace overlay. It felt appropriate for the wedding ceremony I went to (I threw a blazer on over it) because even though the base is a mini skirt, the lace overlay drops past your knees. I wore a belt to help accentuate my waistline, but that was only a style preference for me. It's very form fitting, and looked great.

Fun and flirty
I really loved this dress, although the fabric felt a bit heavy for an August wedding (when I wore it) but the colors were perfect for the time of year. It was great that it had pockets, and the design for the back of the dress was beautiful. It fit a bit awkwardly--a bit too tight in the waist, but the straps the criss-crossed in the back were a little loose. Overall, I still felt great in it. I received loads of compliments, too.

Work appropriate, but still fabulous
I loved wearing this dress to an annual fundraiser for work. It made me feel professional, but also chic. It fit great, and I paired it with a blazer. Got a ton of compliments from colleagues.

Lightweight and chill for a summer wedding.
I really loved wearing this dress in early September for a summery, outdoor camp wedding. I livened it up with some bright yellow feather earrings and yellow heels. It was fun to wear, and kept me cool in the hotter temps since the wedding and reception were outdoors.

Perfect vibe for a winter wedding
I wore this to a December wedding, and felt like a rockstar wearing it. It flowed beautifully, and I loved the one shoulder strap. It did run a little small, with the waist being particularly tight, but overall I still loved wearing it (paired it with heeled booties and a shawl.

So elegant and form fitting!
I absolutely loved this dress. It fit me so well--it was definitely tight, but because it is a modest dress (long sleeves, and covers your knees) I didn't feel awkward wearing it for a work event. I got tons of compliments on it, and felt very good wearing it. I loved the long sleeves. It was a little challenging to get it on and off because of how little give the material has--I think maybe sizing up to the 8 would be helped a little with that. But I'm still happy with the 6, and would love to rent this one again.

Should have sized down.
I wish I had gone with my instinct and sized down for this. I ordered a medium, but didn't end up wearing it because it was too big on me. I should have gone with the small. I wish it had fit, because it's a beautiful blazer and would have been perfect for work!

Incredible fit, made me feel elegant and professional!
I really loved this dress, and will very likely rent it again. It made me feel really confident--it's professional (I wore it most of the day at work with a blazer) but also the lace gives it some added flare. It fit perfectly, and didn't bunch or snag anywhere. I loved the sleeves, too. Everything about this dress was great.

I felt fabulous in this jacket!
Wow--I literally cannot describe how much I loved wearing this jacket. I rented it for my birthday party, but ended up wearing it to work on a Friday, for my birthday party Saturday night, and out to dinner with my family on Sunday night. I'm seriously considering buying it, that's how much I loved this jacket!!!

Loved the sparkles on this dress and the open back.
I really enjoyed wearing this dress. It's cute, flirty, and fun to wear for a party. I wore it for an office holiday party, and everyone loved it. It was a little scratchy under my arms because of the sequins, but nothing that bothered me too much.

I really enjoyed wearing this sparkly blazer. It was a fun way to dress up the black jumpsuit I wore for NYE. I got lots of compliments and it really fit the evening!

Loved the gold floral pattern
This dress was great for my body type--I have a small chest, and it was tight and didn't slip down at all. Made dancing easy, as I wasn't worried about pulling it up all night. I loved the length of the dress--came to about midway down my shins. It felt perfect for the wedding I went to at a golf club, and I felt elegant and received tons of compliments on it.

Perfect for a fall wedding
The ML was just a tad too long for me (I'm 5'9") but overall I LOVED this dress. It's simply beautiful, with the sheer fabric at the sleeves and maxi skirt. It made me feel elegant for the fall wedding I attended, and was perfect for the setting (the wedding was out at a farm and refurbished barn in Lancaster, PA).

This was the perfect dress for a work event. Made me feel confident, and looked professional with a blazer that I paired with it. Loved how sleek it was, and felt appropriate for the event--not too tight as to be "too sexy" for work. I also really loved the neck line!

Way too small at my bust
I am only an A-cup, but my chest/back is pretty broad, and this dress did not suit me well at all. The snap wouldn't stay, and kept popping open, and it was extremely tight around my shoulders and in the arm holes. I really wanted this one to fit, but unfortunately, it was a no-go.

Runs a bit small, hard to zip up the back.
I couldn't get it to zip up. I have a broader back and shoulders, and so the top would zip up all the way, and it sat weird around my hips and crotch. I just don't think I'm suited for jumpers, as cute as they are and as much as I want them to look good on me!

Gold for my birthday!
This dress is amazing. The open back was gorgeous, and I love the way the skirt portion is shorter in the front and longer in the back. I was able to wear it without a bra, which is always a plus (I'm 36A) and felt really beautiful for my birthday party. I cannot believe how lovely the material was, and how perfect it fit. I also loved that it had pockets!

Made me feel long and elegant!
LOVED the way this dress fit. I'm fairly thin and athletic, and I was a little worried that the top wouldn't fit me right, but it was perfect. The dress made me feel long and elegant, and I was getting compliments all night long at my friend's wedding. I was able to wear it without a bra (I'm a 36A) which is nice. The pockets were a huge bonus. I can't say enough good things about this dress.
