Favorite designer - lovely, unique, flattering!
This designer uses a stretchy mesh - which may not sound comfortable or pretty and yet it's both. It's got layers to it, with beautiful prints and swingy flow. Arms are fitted but not tight. Absolute winner. I wore with jean jacket to concert. It was perfect.

Fuzzi Dresses WOW Me, So Gorgeous and Comfie!
This strapless beauty is truly for everyone. The color which skews orange is gorgeous (and I don't look good in orange normally). It's a mesh stretchy fabric so I could have worn the small but it wasn't available and I knew Fuzzi is flex. It's not form fitting but it's not tent like in the way it wears, it's just the perfect summer anything dress. Would love to own.

Stand Out Beauty!! One of Fav Dresses Ever!!
Silky navy blue with big white circles make this beauty a show stopper. I am never able to escape wearing a bra but this is sewn with a seam under the bust such that my 32DDD's stayed in place and I didn't need one. It's not see though at all and doesn't cling. It does wrinkle a bit but steams easily. I probably should have bought this one. I loved it so.

Love this versatile beauty, great color, great cut, goes with everything
Light weight floral blouse with collarless open neck. It worked with denim shorts, jeans, white pants - took on trip and I wanted to wear it everyday. It has that perfect nylon/rayon mix that falls well whether tucked in or not. Love it so much! Not too pink or peach. Right in between. Would look good on all skin tones.

Poppin Pink Check on Point!
High waisted, light weight, black ankle pant with a hot pink check are great for everyday. The fabric is a slightly stretchy poplin that doesn't wrinkle and broadcasts it's black and pink well. They were a little baggie in the hips and behind - but that's my norm. I'd say these fit true to size. Lots of compliments. Would work spring through fall - definitely not too heavy for summer.

Casual, Reliably Cute, Warm, Flattering
Orhers have said this runs large. Depends on how you like your fit. I would normally go small but this was very comfortable and while loose, had structure and with a jean jacket was cute on an outside tour day. I am 5'7" and normally a size 4-6 - if I wanted it very fitted for sure a small - it wasn't in stock. Easy to wear with boots, booties, sneakers even. Quite thick and warm, if your office or home is warm you might be unhappy. If you run cold and like a warmer choice it's like great and it is very very soft. This is one for "not sure what I'll want to wear this week" - it fits into a lot of situations.

Summertime in a Dress - AMAZING
Lovely colors, soft, crisp cotton that isn't too heavy but not at all sheer. Just perfect. The cut is not unflattering despite being roomy. The top fit a bit snugly but I was able to readjust it to work. For me, if the straps were an inch or two shorter it would have been perfect. I loved it just the same. Great pockets always a plus!

ADORABLE, Hangs and Twirls, Black Silk Bottom - YES!
LOVED THIS! I thought this might be shapeless but it was adorable. The fabric hung so nicely. It's not fitted, it has a boxiness, but the way it falls is so pretty. The sleeves are really flattering and the silky bottom ruffle has subtle shine and spin. Wanted to buy this, would be the kind of thing you would throw on a lot if you weren't sure what to wear.

Great LOOK, Smelled Like PERFUME Counter
I loved the hood and it was so warm and snuggly. It definitely adds bulk to your look so I looked a bit marshmallow-y in pictures. The big problem was that who ever had the coat before me, coated it in perfume an it must not have come out. We had to put it in the trunk on the way home, the whole car smelled so strongly everyone was getting a little ill. I'm not exaggerating. But if you got a non smelly coat, this is warm and cute.

Pretty Dress, Shows EVERYTHING underneath
Beautiful color and wanted desperately to make it work, really shiny nice fabric. I couldn't have kept the top shut, no way, fabric tape would've needed to be pretty strong. This maybe more for ladies with olympic fitness, with no lumps...it shows everything. Even nude seamless underwear were visible and it fit, it wasn't tight. That was just me, I want this to work and it looked great on lots of others!

Very Average, Love Printed Blouses, NOT this one
The arms cut half way down which is uncomfortable and not flattering. The print was not simple and pretty, it had more of picnic blanket gone wrong feeling. I love printed blouses, just didn't hit with this one. Not flattering on me.

Colorful and Warm. Fitted, Flattering, and Comfie
Bold stripes with shaping fit. Flattering neckline, ribbed fabric has give but shrinks back in like spanx to flatter. Doesnt make you look lumpy - its warm, so not great for temps north of 50 degrees.

Amazing color, shape, silk/tafetta fabric is a lovely classic a million ways. The waist is pretty fitted but the small worked for me worn a bit higher. LOVE this.

Beautiful Fabric, All Season, So Pretty!
Love everything Joie. Flowy, pretty, and never disappointing. Works everytime. Opening in front is low but it doesnt pull open. Waist is very forgiving. Its long, I wore 2 inch heeled boots and it worked but if you are under 5'5" definitely plan on heels!

Sheer, stretchy, polka dot perfection!
I love this designer. Guaranteed fun / flattering / comfortable and always unique. This is easily a formal dress but when that event was cancelled I decided it worked with a jean jacket, brown booties and turquoise. Tada! Made of two layers and as mentioned by others, BOTH layers are sheer. Don't let that stop you. Its amazing and you can make it work.

Netting of slightly sheer fabric is the best. Stretches for comfort and fit that is impeccable. Flutter sleeves really fun. Wore with black jeans and pale pink velvet heels. Love this shirt.

Collar is Crazy FUN, PURPLE! Everyone LOVED it!
Really fun coat, the collar is very soft on your face and a dark pink/purple so very different and notable. The coat is true to size and warm but not sub zero, NYC, windy winter warm. It was good for 40 degrees and sunny. It closes well (be sure to snap the hooks closed, I've never seen hook and eyes that snap shut but its nice because it keeps the coat closed). It's flattering because it isn't bulky, it won't add size to you. Soft, soft, soft. Nice pockets, great knee length. This coat is the exact reason I love unlimited - such a blast to wear for a while but I wouldn't have purchased it. LOVE!

Amazing colors, fun drape, tight at chest, size up for D cups
Love this dress and loved the colors. It was huge everywhere except the chest where it was really tight. Would be great choice for A/B and maybe C cups. D cups would need to size up and then the dress might fit too large? But it's flowing in the body so that might not matter. I might try again because the colors are so amazing and I don't look good in oranges, this one would look good on everyone color wise. Really unique and pretty.

Lovely silky, hearty fabric, cool flowing ruffles in back, straps are long which is an issue
Great detail, nice with jeans, would work with cardigan into fall. Loved the fabric, not too sheer but has a nice silkiness to it. The straps are really long which made bra selection an issue. I wore a strapless, low cut in back bra and still it was so low at the armpit area the bra kept showing. So if you can go without a bra or wear nubra, this would be great choice. Not terrific option for me. I loved it, but wouldn't rent again given the fit issues.

Comfortable, great looking, easy to wear for anything
It's large, it dragged the ground in flat sandals and I am almost 5' 7" but I loved the colors and flow and received lots of compliments. If I owned it, I'd wear it all the time. Perfect for picnics, more formal affairs with fancier shoes. Add sweater and wear late into the fall.

Loved this! Wanted to keep. Works year round, everyday, flip flops, heels, boots with cardigan!
Flattering. Nice elastic waist makes it comfie but belt keeps it flattering. Cut would work on anyone. Wore this so many times and probably should have kept but that's why I have unlimited! It's not too thick or thin so it's really good year round. Maybe best for early summer, spring and fall. Another "rent when you don't have a particular function but it's time to fill your unlimited closet". It's a great dress. Everyone loved it.

Rent when you don't have anything particular coming up...it's funky, great with jeans, FUN!
Could be worn over a tank. I wore with jeans and sandals and loved it. It was funky and fun. It didn't scream overly fashioned out or too hip for me (I'm old). It was cute, cool cut, really nice fabric - kinda thick but soft and quality. Fringe detail was not too much. I would own this and wear more than you'd imagine.

Flowy Fabric and Design - Perfect Formal or Semi Formal Choice
Gorgeous navy. Flows with specific attention to layered, lightweight fabric. When you move, it surrounds you in gorgeous. Cut is flattering but front top opening may require your attention. It can be easily pulled closed with a spot of fabric tape - it is loose so it won't pull back open. I didn't have any - no fashion faux paux here. It can be year round. Stop paging and pick this one. I got compliments all night.

Picture doesn't do it justice. Detailed silky blue skirt is amazing with fitted black halter
Flatter figuring black Halter was great but skirt is better than picture reflects. The fabric is a shiny patterned Lacey silk with interwoven blue circles and fringe. Bright fun and perfect for a wedding, summer party. Could be formal or casual with different shoes. Loved this. Amazing rental.

Versatile, beautiful, flattering - Amazing Stretchy Fabric - Love It!!
Gorgeous print, beautiful colors. Fabric has this thin meshy-ness to it that with its lining included is so soft and stretchy it doesn't wrinkle, it moves really nicely and is perfect for casual or dressy occasions. Waist makes is slimming instead of just saggy/baggy. Just rent this is so true. It's the best!

Gorgeous Blue Leopard Print Chiffon that Twirls and Flatters and soooo Lovely
Maybe this is my favorite ever. I've rented a lot and I think this is it. The fabric is insane. The blue is bright and gorgeous, yet classy. The cut is so flattering and the way it hangs and swings and twirls while you walk...if you see it available, just rent it. Wear it to the mailbox if that's all you have coming up. I promise you will thank me.

Warm and Beautiful! Love the Neck and the Cable Pattern!
If you are an unlimited member and it's a shoulder season (or winter) just rent this. It's gorgeous, the thick Cable, the big folded collar, the thin leather detail on the pockets are all much better in person than it photographs. Also - super cozy. Feels like a portable sleeping bag - but it doesn't look like one, I promise!

Really cool fabric and cut
I normally wear a small but it wasn't available so I went with the medium. Since it has a ruffled bottom the looser fit worked great. Really interesting scuba like fabric. Warm but not going to melt you at a party. Not my best color but the style and cut made up for it.

Really special sleeves, detailing and cut
Wore to Thanksgiving dinner at a resort and I got so many compliments! I didn't get a good picture - wish I had because this is really pretty and flattering on. I wore with a regular bra which would have been perfect if I'd remembered a bit of fashion tape. Made it work anyway. Sleeves are long and do get in the way of a full plate of food! That said, they are gorgeous. Fluted bottom great. Fabric is thick enough to hide flaws without spank and has good stretch. Loved this.

Super soft, edgy fun
As per the description and other review this coat runs large - although it has 3/4 length sleeves. The sleeves are stylish at that length - just reminder. It was soft, warm and really fun to wear but not super flattering on me - too boxy. When I held the collar closed it was very snuggly and warm. Not as warm with the coat's natural open v neck. I think it's a fun upgrade to a t shirt and jeans kind of weekend. Worth a rent for that.

Snug, thick scuba-like fabric this designer has used on many dresses I've loved. I was able to wear regular bra and didn't need spanx or slip. Dress smoothed all my curves. Slight sheen to fabric, so comfortable and fancy and pretty. I wore it as a costume (fallen angel) but would have been perfect for a formal. You will love!!
