You won’t be disappointed! Flattering!
Was nervous to rent as I have never worn anything like this style. As soon as I tried it on, I knew it was the right choice! The fabric is very forgiving so I felt very comfortable all night. My husband kept complimenting me all night and asked if I could buy it! I wore it to a dinner in February and was warm (as much as you could be in a dress in Feb).

So confused
Ran so small I could barely get it in. When I did, I was comical how short it was, but not short enough to be a crop.
High Low Crossover Top

Cute, casual top
VERY A Line shaped. Perfect if you want to hide a mid section or layer. Neck and shoulders fit true to size. If you don't like the extra fabric, you could always cinch with a belt or tie, or through a blazer/jacket over it

SO COMFORTABLE
This is ADORABLE. I rented for a wi yet wedding, but I didn't feel like it was quite right for the occasion. I will DEF be renting this is the summer! One caveat: it RIDES up when you put your arms up!

Fun dress, not for curves
Fun dress! It reminds me of a salsa or flamenco style! I LOVED the cut of the top, but the bottom was a little straight cut for me (as you can see in the second pic). It's not quite an A line. If you wore spanx, you may be ok, but this would work best on a straighter body type. Bummer b/c it's adorable! The quality of the material and lace is top.
Timeless Lace Midi Dress
Keepsake
Size Worn: XLR
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 175lbs
Bust: 36DD
Felt so Glamorous!
I rented this for New Years and it was perfect! I rented my usual size and wish I would have gone up one size (at least). I made it work by getting creative with shape wear! Even with the shape wear, the dress was still incredibly comfortable and has a little stretch to it, so I loved my curves! I could dance and move easily. This dress is glamorous, sophisticated and fun. You'll be getting compliments all night long! One downside is that it's a little tricky to get on yourself. I had my nails done longer for NYE and it was almost impossible to clasp.

What?!
I THINK this top may be cute, but only on a very specific body type. Pretty print on the fabric though.
That's A Wrap Top

BEAUTIFUL top
I was a little worried this wouldn't fit as I am normally a 12 in tops, but I think because you don't wear a bra with it (you don't need to but could if you wanted to), it made "room" for the girls. The peplum lace is see thru, but not inappropriate, especially if you wore higher waisted jeans.
Black Lace Keyhole Top
Marchesa Notte
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 14

Love the fit!
So comfortable and cute. I'm more of a pear shape, so the placement of the ruffles balance my wider hips out perfectly!

Sleeves are such a great detail
I liked the sleeves of this sweater, but I am longer torso'd and this was just a little awkwardly too short.
Alana Sweater
AMUR
Size Worn: XL
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 175lbs
Bust: 36DD
Very specific fit
There's NO traditional sweatshirt stretch with this style. It's very cute and was disappointed. My style is more casual, however, so I wouldn't be styling it formally.
Navy Darlin Sweatshirt

Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 175lbs
Bust: 34DDD/E
Scratchy
There's a lot of metallic in this, so made the fabric rather scratchy. It may be ok if you wear a tank under. Cute style.
Terry Ruffle Sweatshirt

Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 9"

Bust: 34DDD/E
Perfect for a winter birthday
I'm 5'9 and have a longer torso so most jumpsuits are too short in the rise. This one was perfect. I'm a 34DD, and tried it with a bra, but it was very chesty. I ended up going brakes and didn't have to use tape. I was comfortable throughout the night and got a lot of compliments!
Kate Jumpsuit
Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent
Size Worn: LL
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 175lbs
Bust: 36D
Great versatile dress
I rented this for a fall wedding, but didn't end up wearing it due to the weather. It's a cute dress otherwise! The top is tight, but stretchy, so it was comfortable to wear a strapless and feel supported. The flair in the skirt is a perfect blend of flirty and sexy, but leggy ladies beware; my inseam is 33in, I'm 5'9 and this could be a little challenging in windy conditions!
