Cute, but a lot
Cute, but a bit overwhelming on my small-ish frame, especially the sleeves.

Cute and comfy
These were super cute, soft, and comfy. I'm only 5'1" and they hit right at my ankles. If they had pockets, I would have kept.

Best rental yet..so I rented it again!
Gorgeous dress and easy to wear. The fabric is very light and has just enough give in all the right places. It's very flattering on a curvy figure!

Lavender Brandy Gown
BCBGMAXAZRIA
Size Worn: 4P
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 1"
Weight: 115lbs
Bust: 34D
Gorgeous dress, but not made for a petite frame.
This dress was gorgeous! I loved the way the skirt flares out a bit, and I think it would have been super comfortable to wear. I usually wear a size 4, and this size 4 fit comfortably (not too tight or loose), but it just didn't fall right on my frame. I'm only 5'1" and I couldn't get the dress to sit right on my frame...the waste didn't hit at my waste and it bunched a bit in the back. The overall length was actually great (a few inches above my knees), but the proportions were off.

Black Tess Dress

Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 4

Perfect amount of sparkle
These were beautiful and easy to wear; not too heavy. My style is fairly understated, and these were just sparkley enough for my taste.

Gorgeous and comfortable dress!
Gorgeous dress and so comfortable. I loved that it has pockets and that I could wear a standard bra with it. I'm quite short and the v-neck hung quite low...low enough to show my demi-bra. So I pinned it at the shoulders and left my hair down, so it wasn't obvious. Otherwise, it was a great dress!

Very nice
The pair of earrings I ordered were not available, so these were a replacement pair, but I really liked them. A bit heavy, but otherwise great!

Noir Marks the Spot Earring
Oscar de la Renta
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 1"
Weight: 115lbs
Bust: 34D
Beautiful and comfortable
Beautiful, unique dress! Loved the pockets!! The fit was a bit snug in the bust, so I sized up and wore the 6. Also, I'm quite short and the straps were long on me. So the dress hung a bit low, and the top of my strapless bra was visible through the sheer material. It wasn't a problem, though, since it looked like part of the dress. Overall, I was very happy with this dress.

Kiss From A Rose Dress
Milly
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 1"

Bust: 34D
Fun and perfect for a party!
Super fun dress, perfect for a party and a nice alternative to a lbd. Very nice fabric with just a bit of shimmer to it. I have a fairly full bust, so it was a bit snug up top and I opted to wear the bigger size. It's fairly low cut in the front, but it's easy to wear a bra with this dress (as long as it plunges fairly low) because of the way it's cut and the little internal strings to hold the straps in place.

My Little Secret Dress

Great dress!
This was a great dress! The fabric is a bit metalic, which made it stand out more than the average little black dress. For the most part, it's true to size, but it did run a bit small in the bust. It's also a bit low cut in the front, but definitely appropriate for a party/night out. I would definitely wear this again!

My sister ended up wearing this dress and got tons of compliments! She's rather petite, so it was a bit long and we had to pin the halter behind her neck a bit, but it worked out well.

Loved this dress, but wasn't able to wear it because it was too snug on top. I'm petite (usually a size 2, sometimes a 4) but wear a 32D bra, and the size 4 wouldn't accomodate my bust. I was a little nervous about the length because I am so short, but the length was perfect. I'll definitely try renting the size 6 for another event.

Cute dress!
I rented this as a back up dress and didn't end up needing it. It was very cute, but a little bit tight in the chest and shoulders. Otherwise, it fit great at the waist and everywhere else. Recommend sizing up if you have a full bust.

Beautiful and comfortable
This dress was beautiful, simple, but elegant. It fit great, was slimming, and was super comfortable. A bit long, even with 4-inch heals, but I just held it up a bit when walking and it was fine.
