Unfortunately unforgiving
I thought this would be a softer, more romantic top. But even though it fit in the shoulders and sleeves, it was a bit loose in the chest and felt tight and short in the waist. Maybe it would work on younger women or something? But even with basic high waisted jeans and trousers I felt like it was really uncomfortable and looked off

Adorable!
I loved this little gingham dress from Ganni. So comfortable and easy to wear. The neck and sleeves are nice details, and it's easy to style in a variety of ways.

A lot of pattern and fabric to pull off
This dress just didn't work on my petite frame-- too long to be midi but with the dropped waist it looks just off as a maxi dress. The sleeves were also far too long, and the patterns are just a lot of look.

Uncomfortable fabric on comfy style
This dress almost falls into the nap dress or beachy coverup category-- but it's a scratchy cotton with a sweaty polyester lining. Plus, as a petite woman, the ruffles are just ... a bit too much on my frame. So close!

Sparkly fun
I wore this skirt with a sweatshirt and sneakers. It's super fun and eye catching. I got tons of compliments. It's a pain to wear though because it doesn't have a slit and is a fitted skirt so you have to take tiny little steps. Additionally, the sequins on the internal hem chaffed my legs slightly. Worth it, but I wouldn't buy it because of the lack of slit to make it easy to walk in.

Comfortable but interesting casual dress
I wore this 3 times before returning it. It's super comfortable, but the details make it more interesting than a standard t shirt dress. I got a lot of compliments too. Considered buying. Great summer dress!

Love the details and design
This is a very cool, easy to wear dress that looks fresh and unusual. It's definitely a look that will stand out and draws attention. I wore this to a spring day time party where most women were in floral a-line dresses. This got tons of compliments from other women and I loved it. I also wore it layered with a blazer to work. Another thing i loved is that, unlike a lot of more unusual cut clothing, this dress actually worked on me as a petite/smaller framed person. At 5'3, it's more ankle length than midi but I wasn't swallowed by too much fabric. It's also a comfortable, breathable fabric that works in both sunny outdoors and air conditioned office. Only negative is it wrinkles when sitting. Would buy if it was less $$

Comfy fun blazer
This is a fun, casual blazer in a lose knit fabric. I wore it twice -- once with jeans, once with houndstooth pants and hot pink sneakers. Its a nice lighter layer.

70s man repellent joy
This dress elicited sooo many compliments from women and I loved wearing it with flats and giant sunglasses and jewelry. My boyfriend and dad totally side eyed it, because they lack joie de vivre. Rent this and be comfortable and vintage chic like a middle aged Liz Taylor.

Quite thin but otherwise good
This kimono is a warm weather only piece and much thinner than I was expecting. It looks cool and fun but I returned it bc it looked odd with a long sleeved top underneath and it wasn't warm enough over a tank top for SF spring time. I'll rent it again when it warms up.

Beautiful PINK dress
I loved this dress although I was just wearing it out and about not to a special occasion where it would be more appropriate. The knit is not super forgiving but it's so cool and cheerful. Really liked it.

Warm oversized jacket
I rented this for a trip to colder weather and it works as both an outdoor coat with layers or a substitute for a blazer/cardigan with a sleeveless dress. The only annoying thing is that the pocket are entirely false-- theres just a slit in the jacket?! As I'm not a time traveling woman from the Renaissance, I do not in fact wear pockets as a separate garnet and I found this a bit ridiculous. Call me new fangled, but coats should have pockets. Or is this old fashioned? Humbug.

Cute casual cheerful
Rented for work and weekend wear via unlimited. I got a lot of compliments from other women... I liked it & it's comfortable to wear, but it's extremely hard to get out of and needs a side zipper. I'm narrow-shouldered and pretty flat so I can't imagine what it's like if you're curvier or broad shouldered. It's a fun fall yellow color, but it's probably not for everyone.

Bold and beautiful
I have never gotten this many compliments in my life. The color and flow and pattern are beautiful and the cut flattering and sexy but not overly so. It's dramatic but somehow easy too. I'm short and not curvy, so the snaps were tight on my rib cage and the skirt was long enough I had to wear heels. Overall I adore it and feel like some boho goddess...

Baggy but comfortable
These feel like actual pajamas, and are about as flattering. I'm fine with the trend but these were pretty baggy and the drawstring didn't tightened them. It definitely looked borderline undergrad in pj bottoms at work. Fine but not my favorite ever.

Teeny tiny
I own and have rented a lot of theory clothes over the years and I thought I knew my size! Um, not in these pants. Did they change their sizing this year or is just these pants? I could not even get them on when another pair of theory work pants in the same size are a bit baggy?! Anyway order a size or two up ladies!

A little too twee and frumpy
I love a good summer dress or wrap dress ala DVF but this was a step too girly and twee for me. The pattern looks like wallpaper and the cut is a little too conservative and vintage-y. No wow factor or anything to cut the sweetness. Lots of people like it so it's probably just me!

Cute wrap dress
Wore this to work and on a date. I'm a zero or two and the 2 fit perfectly. It's flattering and forgiving and like most DVF dresses, I didn't require any pinning and no embarrassing gaps.

Reviews are right
I picked this without reading the reviews. As others noted it's not that flattering and it's just quite large especially in the bust. Definitely not going to work for anyone smaller chested like myself (gaping and falling straps)

Attractive but high maintenance
My boyfriend loved this dress, and it's a nice blend of sweet and sexy. That said, it flew up multiple times in the wind, it kept slipping so had to pin it closed up top (even though the neckline was theoretically fine), and the fabric was a little clingy so could only wear certain undergarments. Very pretty pattern and flattering but I think other DVF or other brand wrap dresses are easier to wear.

Uncomfortable but cool color
These are the same idea as the ubiquitous Rachel Comey style pants.... which I've realized i find deeply uncomfortable in every brand I've tried. Not entirely sure why? I loved the bright, saturated saffrony yellow, but I was glad to take them off at the end of the day.

Lovely spring/summer dress
This is prettier in person. I'm an A cup and the dress actually fits and isn't baggy so I'm assuming it's not going to fit above average chest? I love the pattern and twirly skirt.

Cute, casual and flattering
I wore this twice already. The fabric is lovely high quality silk. The pattern could be too twee and preppy but the cut and the watercolor style design makes it work (at least for me). I styled with a form-fitting midi dress and black pants and a blazer. Really like this item!

Cute fun pants
These are cute casual pants, and they can be styled a ton of different ways. I actually found they are great for matching with other prints. I wore with everything from black turtleneck and heels to green print blouse to graphic t and pink chuck taylors. They run a little loose : I'm a 0-2 and the 0 was wearable but I could've worn a size smaller. If you're between two sizes I'd get the smaller...

70s fun
Wore these with a white turtleneck and chunky heels. These are extremely fun and comfortable pants with lovely fabric and great detailing. Because im short, they were just wide leg not culottes/cropped. I loved wearing them, but I will say they're not the most versatile pants in terms of styling. They have a atrong 70s-chic vibe.

More awesome in person
This looked interesting on the site, but I wasnt 100% sure it would work on me. The top is extremely flattering, but note you can only wear a strapless bra. I styled it with chunky boots and a leather jacket, and then a scarf and dad sneakers. It would also look great with heels. I got compliments from coworkers and strangers. Wish I could buy:)

Structured mini with cool details
I wasnt sure how this would fit based on reviews, so I ordered up a size. It is pretty much straight up and down and in a structured, thick fabric, so I shouldve ordered my usual size. If youre curvy/ have hips this might not work or you might want to size up. I otherwise liked the skirt, though it's a mini and too short for any professional setting. I wore it with a turtleneck and tights and liked it, even though it kept turning because it was too big.

My office loves this dress
I got a ton of compliments on this dress. It has a fun pattern, is totally work appropriate, and moves well. Generally very comfortable and forgiving cut. I loved the top half but wouldve liked it a couple inches shorter being a not tall lady.

Not all that flattering
I conceptually like this cheerful casual dress, but it was a little blah on me and I had trouble styling it. Ended up returning it without wearing.

Its fine
Its a cotton high neck sweater. Its chunkier knit than I'd assumed so it looked a little frumpy and bulky IMO. Ultimately wore it around town but I didnt feel particularly stylish and I dont think it was especially flattering albeit nothing eggregious.

Awesome but less warm than youd think!!
This dress is deeply cool, checkered mesh and knit turtleneck midi dress. Note that the magenta panels are essentially transparent and have very wide holes. I wore black tights and a tank under it. It was still a little chilly on a crisp SF night-- dont plan to be toasty in it...

Insane but amazing
I've worn this a few times after renting through unlimited, and it always brightens my mood. It's obviously a bold, over the top look. But it's fun and happy and totally makes me feel like I'm tipsy on champagne and in AbFab. My kid said I looked like "a beautiful fancy cheetah" and asked for one too.

So flattering and unique
I have and have rented a lot of form-fitting midi dresses, and this one is my favorite. I had a barista, my boyfriend, friends, coworkers, and strangers all stop to tell me repeatedly how cool this dress is. it's just one of those cool, versatile, and unique pieces that's fun to wear to a lot of occasions. Sexy but not over the top.

Liked these a lot. They're a bit different cut but very comfortable and easy to wear. They're a linen like fabric which makes them more casual, but also makes them a good option for at least 3 seasons.
