So many compliments
This dress was comfortable and stylish. I got so many compliments and wore it twice. Would have purchased, but own something similar.

One of my favorites
I’ve rented this twice and really probably should just buy it at this point. I love this dress. It makes my chest look great, it’s so flattering. I’ve worn it to a work event, a bar mitzvah party and a nice dinner out. My husband, admittedly, doesn’t love the pattern… he can tell how much I love the dress and thinks it fits well, but he is always a bit turned off by the pattern and color scheme.

Love love love
This dress is a little more rust colored than it appears in the photo. I loved it! Needed to steam it a bit, because the ties got smushed in transit. I’m seriously considering going to get this dress in black full price at the store, I loved it. The color was amazing and I got so many compliments, just wouldn’t get as much wear out of it if I kept it. It’s a bit fancier than I’d wear for work, but I wore it to a “business cocktail” event and it was perfect.

Oversized cozy sweater
I wore this sweater multiple times… with jeans and leggings. It’s casual and easy for everyday, but can definitely be dressed up a little for work. It’s long and covers your bum.

Cute fit, but really bold print
I did not end up wearing this dress because the print is bright and not for me. It felt like a tablecloth. The fit was nice - it's a square neck, so you need to be careful of which bra you wear, but it was a flattering fit that ran true to size. I just couldn't pull off the print, even with a jean jacket.

Basic blouse - good for jeans or slacks
This was a very easy blouse to wear with jeans or slacks. I wore it once casually and once to work. It's a thin material, easy to travel with and flattering. Nothing special, but definitely worth a spot in your subscription if it fits your style.

Loved it with a leather jacket over
I really loved this dress while wearing a leather jacket over it! I don't think I could have pulled it off without... I wore a lacey bralette under, since it was fairly lowcut, and the straps are not exactly straight - so you'd definitely need to go without a bra or a very lowcut strapless if you don't use the jacket. But otherwise, the color and length were perfect! I wore this with short heels to a party at a cocktail bar and felt great in it.

Great summer dress
Wore this to a summer baby shower and got so many compliments. If the pattern allowed me to wear it more frequently, I would have purchased. It’s fairly low-cut, so not work appropriate - but could wear to dinner, day events, brunch… Loved it!

Huge. Couldn’t wear
The straps were so long that they wouldn’t stay up, and the top was so large that it didn’t feel like it matched the bottom for this hourglass girl. Couldn’t wear it.

A little pajama-like but very comfy
I wore this one time with a jean jacket… It’s a perfectly fine dress, very comfortable, but alone looks like pajamas. I am 5’6” and it was long… wore with flat sandals, but going up stairs, I needed to hold onto the bottom so as to not trip. I wore a crossback bra, which worked fine. Nothing special though.

Loved bringing this dress on vacation. I used those little gel breast lifting covers and fabric tape to keep everything PG. the rest of the dress has great shape, isn’t too fitted, and I loved it.

Great color, OK dress
I brought this dress on vacation and did wear it, but don’t think it’s anything special. The neck ruffles were hard to steam, the neck closure was a bit of a pain, and there was SO MUCH fabric. But the color is beautiful, it was light and airy, and easy to wear with a strapless bra.

Fun spring pant
These pants are not anything I would normally wear, and I honestly considered buying them. They are a nice, thick material that give such a fun pop of color. I wore with a white tank and jean jacket - once to work, and again to a girl's brunch. Loved these!

Loved this dress
Will definitely rent this again. The puffy sleeve is just enough to make it special. It hits mid-calf, so work or everyday appropriate, and just feels pretty. The color is a bit muted, but doesn't bother me one bit.

Cute everyday jumpsuit
The opening was a bit short, so it took some effort to get in and out and was challenging when going to the bathroom throughout the day. With that said, it was really cute, I got lots of compliments and it was comfortable as long as I was just in it.

Love these wide leg casual pants
If they weren’t so unique and I could wear them all the time, I would have bought them. The color is awesome. They are easy to wear casually and just made me feel easy breezy and cool. They do wrinkle easily and if you are near water (or even just wash your hands), they get very distinct water marks (that of course dry). Love them.

Pretty, formal gown
I didn’t end up wearing this dress, but it was my runner up. The dress is long and flows nicely - I have hips and didn’t feel like I needed shapewear. The top has a cut out, so you wouldn’t wear a bra. And at 5’6” I needed high heels or platforms for it to not drag on the floor. It could possibly benefit from a small belt to add some shape at the waist, but I wasn’t planning to wear one and it was still pretty.

A conservative dress with some flair
I didn’t end up wearing this dress, but I did sincerely consider it. I normally wear a size 10, but went up to a 12 and am glad I did. It was a little blousey in the top, but I needed the extra size for my hips. If I owned it, I would have probably gotten it taken in a bit on top, but probably not necessary. The swooped collar that drapes down the back is what makes this dress special. It definitely would need to be steamed, but easily. I would consider renting this again for another event.

Sexy yet comfortable and flattering
I loved this dress. Rented as a backup, but it was certainly the winner. I definitely needed shapewear to smooth everything out, but this dress was sleek, comfortable and easy to wear. I am 5’6” and could have worn low heels or high, as the dress was not too long. You can wear a normal bra easily. The slightly puffed shoulder gave it a little bit of youth since the velvet can be a bit of an older look. I got so many compliments and would definitely rent again. I don’t actually feel like the photo does it justice.

Nice dress, but odd print
The dress looks nice on, better than I expected from the hanger, but the fabric is totally like wallpaper. Just completely unappealing to me. The arms are a bit of a winged fit. I have hips and this went over them perfectly. Fit is very complimentary.

Love this dress!!
I am between a 10 and 12, and based on reviews I went with the 12. It was perfect. The ribcage has no give, but it’s flowy and so pretty and I loved it. I wore this to an event that had attire of “daytime formal” and it worked perfectly. Could have used some boob tape for when I sat, but it wasn’t necessary. I am considering purchasing, but since it’s pretty colorful compared to my normal wardrobe - I’m not sure how often I’d wear it but will definitely rent this again.

Couldn’t wear this
This dress looked ridiculous on me. It was just bizarre. The fit in the shoulders, the length and the color - all combined for a mess on me. The body fit was very flattering and slimming, but not enough for me to wear it in public.

Cozy comfy sweater
I normally wear a size L sweater and got the size 4. It’s perfect. It’s long, hits just below mid-hip, and super cozy. Wore it with a tshirt underneath and can easily wear with jeans or leggings. If it was a little less wintery-looking, I’d definitely purchase but will absolutely rent again.

Oversized heavy and great for winter
This is a casual, comfortable and heavy sweater perfect for winter everyday wear. It’s long and oversized, so I can’t picture making this really “cute,” but I brought it to NY and wore it twice — once to casual dinner and again to an outdoor light show. It served its purpose perfectly! Not itchy.

Once belted, very cute!
This dress is really versatile. I wore it to a red carpet event, but could have easily worn to work, dinner or with sneakers. It just kind of hung there, so I belted it to give it some shape. The arms are really long, but I scrunched them up to my elbows and it was still very comfortable.

Versatile and stylish
I loved this jumper. Wore it with a leather jacket to an awards show. It was edgy and stylish, but totally comfortable and flattering. I am normally a size 10 and ordered this in a 12, and I'm glad I did. It went over my hips easily, and I was able to tie it at the waist to give my shape good definition. Could be dressed up or down. I would definitely rent this again.

Great dress, easy to wear
I got so many compliments on this dress. Wore it a few times... to work, out to dinner, casual on a weekend... It's smocked up top and I personally felt like it ballooned out a bit in my midsection to almost make me look pregnant, but it must have been in my head because everyone told me it was flattering and great. The slit on the side is high, but not inappropriately so. Considered purchasing, but would definitely rent again.

This was an easy-to-wear top that could be casual or dressed up a little more for work. It smocked up top and was a little shorter than I expected, but not cropped. It was perfectly fine, but not memorable. Good colors.

Great, casual dress
I wore this dress twice - once to a baby shower, and again to work. It was light and casual, and went well with both heeled sandals and flat sandals. Very easy to wear. Not constricting at all. There are hook and eyes holding the chest together, and at one point I noticed they came undone and needed to be refastened, but nothing alarming. Would rent again!

Loved this dress!
This dress was perfect for a Sunday afternoon outdoor wedding. It feels formal (has pretty gold shiny design throughout that I didn't see so much in photos), but probably not black tie. The material is flowy, there's a lot of give in the torso, and it's fairly low cut, though I was able to wear a regular bra (added bonus!). If it wasn't so expensive, I'd have bought it, but will definitely rent it again.

Tight, and a little too open for a work function
I rented this for Emmy weekend, and even if it wasn't too tight (I could zip it, but it wasn't flattering), I wouldn't have worn it because the cut out isn't very work appropriate. I would have also needed spanx and couldn't have worn them because of the cutout. Just didn't work all around.
