Runs both small and large somehow
I really wanted to love it and I did love the look at feel of it in person but the sleeves were super small and tight while the chest was huge. It was a good length though and fit perfectly in the torso. Just disproportionate all around.

Really cute in cold weather
This dress is really tight. The material is thick but also stretchy and is very flattering. I would rent it again, just not for a big meal!

Absolutely loved this dress. Snug fit but flattering. It was so warm and comfortable, I can't wait for it to get chilly so I can rent it again!

So many compliments
This dress is beautiful and the material is just luxurious. I got a ton of compliments. I would rent it again but comfort in this dress depends how comfy you are overall with it being soo flowy. It's pretty baggy so it just depends on your personal taste.

Love this romper so much!
I loved this romper! I want to live in it. I got so many compliments wearing it and it was so comfortable. The only problem was how hot I got wearing it in the dead of summer but honestly it was worth it.

Beautiful but so long
I love the colors and pattern. This piece is so beautiful but the pants are way too long, even with tall heels or wedges. Other than the length, it fits great everywhere else.

Pretty but too long to be functional
The dress is really nice and the material is great. Fits fine everywhere except the length. It's just too long to work.

Perfect for cooler evening
I rented this for a cooler night out on vacation. It's very thin so it's perfect for a breezier evening without overheating. It's really cute and easy to wear.

Great top for summer
Sheer but works great with a strapless bralette. It's perfect for hot summer days with high rise shorts or pants. It's very flowy and fun to wear.

Beautiful and comfortable
It was a little loose in the torso but really comfortable and the perfect maxi length. I kept this one for a while and lost track of how many times I wore it! Always got so many compliments. As other reviews say, it is pretty sheer and thin but didn't seem totally see through.

Super fun and comfortable
As other reviews say, it is pretty short but you can adjust the straps to your comfort. Otherwise fits true to size. Got lots of compliments. Really fun to wear for a night out. Bonus: it doesn't appear wet when water gets spilled on it and dries fast.

Gaps too much under arms
This top is so pretty, I was very disappointed I couldn't wear it. The body of it is too wide and the arm holes gap away too far.

Extra bulk
I wanted to love this and the fabric was so comfortable. I like the flowy wide leg look but this was just very bulky and the legs were incredibly long, couldn't even wear with heels.

Really cute romper for a hot day
I loved this romper! It was so fun and summery. The top is a little loose and so are the shorts but I loved how it flowed. Perfect for a hot day outside.

Not even sure whether it runs small or large??
The dress is beautiful. The material and design is gorgeous. But it does not fit right. The top half is huge, the sleeves are super tight, and the bottom half is small and makes the top half bunch up even more.

Gorgeous dress for birthday celebration
I absolutely loved this dress. Although it was a little loose and the skirt was heavy like others described, it still fit beautifully. I got so many compliments and it has such a great bohemian vibe. Can't wait for another occasion to rent it again!

Super cute but baggy
This was adorable! I got so many compliments. It's baggy in the torso but still fits okay. You can't really pull that drawstring to be any tighter. I wore it twice for casual weekend events. Will rent again!

A tiny bit tight but overall beautiful
It probably wouldn't hurt to size up. It's VERY form fitting. But it's overall so well made, very high quality material, simple and very chic.

Can't figure out if it runs big or small
Overall I loved the material, it was thick and comfortable. But the torso was huge and the hips were very tight. It kind of looked okay if I arranged it a certain way but I felt uncomfortable and kept having to fix how it fell.

Adorable and fun weekend top
I absolutely loved this top. I got it for a fancy brunch on the beach and it was perfect. It does run a little small but fits great when you size up. The outside is entirely made of subtle (not scratchy) sequins and the inside is really soft and comfortable. I'd rent it again for another beachy event or in the summer!

Cute but not the most flattering
Really nice material and I loved the color. It's much more low cut than on the model so it doesn't feel appropriate for work. Something about the waist isn't flattering, I think it made me look bulky in the middle.

Loved this fun top
I really loved this top for a night out. The photo on the model doesn't show that it's a crop top but it's not too short with high waisted jeans. It still looked tasteful enough for a fancier event and works for a fun night. The material isn't the softest but it's not uncomfortably scratchy. I would rent again!

Just ok dress
Very nice material and feel to it but runs large and baggy so not the most flattering. Maybe it works better the taller you are.

Really strange fit
I liked the material and even the sleeves because they had such an interesting design. I'm usually a fan of flowy/baggy dresses but this one was such an odd shape and so tent-like I couldn't make it work from any angle.

Awkward fit
I rented this for work but didn't end up wearing it. I'm not super tall but it was incredibly short and the ruffles made it even worse. The fitted band in the middle was weird too. It didn't look right pulled down but turned the dress into a shirt when pulled up around the waist.

Great for work
I really liked the smocked fit. It was loose and comfortable but not baggy. It's a little short, especially if you have to lift your arms. I styled it with tights and boots for a chillier day. Overall, a good fit and a really nice, deep purple. I liked the front pockets a lot!

Perfect for everything!
I originally rented this dress for work but loved it so much I found every excuse to wear it. I got so many compliments everywhere I went. It's so light and flowy but also looks great in colder temps with tights and boots. I kept this one for a while and will definitely rent again! Runs true to size.

Stylish and professional!
I loved this jacket/blazer. I paired it with a black tank top, black skinny pants, and black booties. It's cute both zipped and unzipped. The sleeves are a tiny bit short but it looks cute with sleeves unzipped so they flare a little. Overall good fit in the torso when zipped. I don't think I would recommend sizing up because then it might be too baggy.

Not made well at all
My experience with this dress was exactly as others had described. Although it fit fine in the torso and arms, I can't understand the rest of its design. It's so short and flares out SO wide. It's not wearable no matter how many angles you try to look at it from.

Really cute top
I originally rented this for work but it's deceptively short. I'm 5'5 and any time I moved it became a crop top. I love the back detailing-it's held together by buttons all the way down. But the bottom of the back (where the buttons stop) flares when you move and shows skin too. So instead of work I wore it to a party and it was perfect for winter weekend wear (it's very warm where I live). I recommend it, just maybe not for work.

Professional and stylish
After reading other reviews, I sized up one size and it fit perfectly. It's form fitting and very flattering because the fabric is thick but it also has some give and is really comfortable to sit in. It did ride up a little bit while walking but it wasn't a big deal or unruly to manage. It's a little short but works really well with tights. I would rent it again!

Black tie wedding
I rented this for a formal wedding and was absolutely in love with it. It does run a little small but only because the material around your ribcage, waist, and chest has no give. Regardless, it is very comfortable, and the stomach and hips have lots of room and flow. I loved it so much, recommend it to everyone, and I can't wait to have another event that I can rent it for!

Black tie wedding
I rented these bangles for a black tie wedding but I didn't end up wearing them. I thought they looked a lot nicer online but are kind of gaudy in real life and didn't feel very elegant.
