Cute but really short and tight
I was unable to wear this as the bottom hit at the wrong place on my torso. It fit fine in the chest/arms but not so much otherwise.

Love this sweater
Pros: Fits well, warm but not too heavy feeling or itchy, got a lot of compliments Cons: Material pills a little (not expected at this price point), and the color palette isn't my favorite combo (if it were I might be tempted to buy it!)

Nice warm sweater
Great fit and color - it's a little heavy for me but I tend to run hot. It was long enough for me to feel comfortable wearing with fitted pants.

So many compliments!
I am just starting to wear earrings again after a long hiatus and this was my first "big" pair and I was surprised by all the great feedback! These were easy to wear and not too heavy.

Cute sweater, fun color
I really liked this - it was comfortable, bright for a dreary winter day, and fit well. It's a little short but I expected that from the pictures and it worked fine over a denim skirt. Would rent again!

Super cute but longggggg
I really liked this but had to fold over the elastic waste band 2x so it wouldn't drag in the floor. I'm short for my size and don't wear heels so it may work for others!

Too firm fitting fir my taste
It was very firm fitting and showed every lump and bump and curve. I don't think the item photos had a full figured model or I'd have noticed right away and skipped it. It was too clingy for me to feel comfortable in and I never wore it.

Cute and comfy
Love this dress - the skirt has a flattering drape and the neckline isn't that deep so for once I didn't need to wear a tank underneath! Dressed up with flats for work but also wore with converse sneakers for a casual day out.

I rented this to add color to zoom calls and it worked well! The material is not too heavy and is soft. I ordered up a size and it fit fine - I tend to not like tight sweaters though.

Love this so much
I'm keeping it for a second month because I don't want to give it back. Warm and cozy and stylish! It's oversized so perfect to wear with sweater or blazer underneath. Only nit is the sleeves are long on me (I have short arms) but it was easy to fold them under. I'm tempted to buy it and have the sleeves tailored!

Confusing material and tragic waist!
First off the material surprised me - I expected something knit but it's a slippery woven material. It's very straight/narrow and shows everything. The waistband was a bit loose though so it didn't feel constrictive. I paired it with a long black sweater and tights and it looked nice. I wore it to church and partway through the service, we get up to greet one another and I stood up and the skirt fell to my ankles! Only one person noticed (I think!) but it was embarrassing. Won't rent again!

I'm 5'4" and the length of the size 20 was a bit too long but liked it. The material was a bit heavier than expected - not really great for hot summer days! But overall would recommend.

LOVE THIS COAT
I really love this coat! It's cozy and warm and transitions from casual to dressy (not that the pandemic provides a lot of dressy occasions, but one can be optimistic). Pockets are a nice size and there is a bonus one inside! I got it a little big so I can wear layers underneath but it's pretty much true to size.

Nice wrap dress for colder weather
I really like the fabric on this dress - it's heavy enough for warmth, but has a nice soft feel. The thickness does impact the drape a bit when it's tied, so it is a bit bulky looking even if it doesn't feel that way. The ruffle hem is a nice touch, and the gray color is neutral without being boring. I think I could have sized down to cut down some of the bulk across the top of the back, but I was happy with the fit.

Perfect for a September wedding
This was perfect for a fall wedding -the material is thick, almost tapestry like, but the short length and fluttery sleeves made it nice for warmer weather. The colors are vibrant and happy. I sized up but it was a little bit big in the shoulders - but I am not sure the smaller size would have fit me in the chest. At first I thought it was a bit boxy-looking, but it moved well both on the dance floor and walking around the reception, and the fact that it wasn't tight or restricting was very welcome. And, it has POCKETS!

Cute and flirty - and POCKETS!
I absolutely loved this dress - it's cute and flirty and still classic-looking. And POCKETS! Unfortunately, it was just a tad bit too tight in the bust, and so I couldn't get the side zipper up along my bra line. I honestly almost wore it with a sweater, I was so in love with it! But with no time to upsize, I had to choose another dress. Would definitely order the next size up for a future occasion!

Stiff and heavy - not right for summer
I never wound up wearing this, as the material is very stiff and heavy, and not appropriate for a hot summer work outfit. The zipper is also difficult to close, especially if you live alone and don't have a dresser on staff! Pretty colors, though

Comfy dress and POCKETS!
I really like this dress The fit is nice and the striped fabric a nice subtle classic look. The pockets are a plus! My only issue is that the fabric is heavy and it's lined - so not ideal for a hot summer even though the style itself could work in warm weather.

Super cute but not as described
I really like this dress. It's light and comfy and a great silhouette. It is NOT a wrap dress by any stretch of the imagination. It is a button front dress with a full skirt - nothing wraps. You wouldn't tie it to the side like in the photos because the ties are placed evenly at each side to tie in back (it front)! As I says, though the style was flattering on me. I'm confused by the reviews about sizing as it's clear if you read the size info that this designer had decided to call xl/xxl a Large. Makes no sense but it's spelled out if you read fully. I like this dress enough I am tempted to buy it - but the "hand wash or dry clean" label is a deal breaker.

Comfy and flattering
I live the look of this dress and the two contrasting fabrics. It's light and comfortable. Since it's a wrap, hard to judge the fit other than the one tiny button that holds it closed. It was too tight for me - if I owned the dress, I would've moved the button but I used a safety pin instead. And then I loved wearing it so much I bought it! ;)

I loved this so much I bought it after 3 days!
Seriously this is one of my favorite bags ever. It's a great roomy size, without being too heavy. The color is beautiful and fresh - and the little surprise of the lining is fun. I also love the strap and clasp - it's thin and delicate but holds the bag closed nicely. I couldn't be happier that I now own it!

Cute dress!
I like the color and the way it drapes - sleeves are cute too. The 20 was a little big on me, but I was afraid the 18 would be too small. It's fairly heavy, though, so better for fall than for spring. I'm still going to eke out one more wearing before my month rental is up!

Pretty but beware of the back peep hole!
From other reviews, I knew to size up (usually an 18-20), and the fit was fine (a little big but i prefer that over tight). However, I don't have any bra that would work with the placement of the back opening! I tried wearing it with a black tank underneath but it looked silly. Also, the pretty ties at the wrists were a wrinkly mess when I received the dress. Annoying!

This is a nice well-made skirt but in plus sizes the "pencil" shape is lost. Was more of a square than a rectangle. Better for slimmer gals.
