OMG.
Was not expecting much from this one, but loved the color so I got it, but wow, it has blown me away. I am normally a medium and they only had a large, so I took a chance on the large and it fits like a glove. I would say it runs a little small, but also the fabric is like a thickish Lycra, so it’s very very stretchy- no zipper or anything, just straight over the head. Color is a beautiful, vibrant blue that really pops. I tried it on with a seamless compression garment underneath as it will show every lump and bump. But for me, it’s a winner!

Halloween fun
Even though this arrived the day after I needed it, I managed to work it for Halloween, and got so many compliments. It's beautiful and high quality, but that also means it's heavy, and the elastic in the waist wasn't strong enough to keep it from slipping down. It didn't fall off but I had to keep yoinking it up again.

This was an easy dress to wear, it fit pretty true to size although I sized up from my usual 8 to a 10 since I've gained a little lately. Received many compliments.

Stunner!
I rented this dress for a gala themed "Midnight in the Garden" and it was perfect! As other renters mentioned, it is extremely long, even the R length was super long on me (5'5" in 4in heels) but I found that I could tuck the top of the skirt up under the boned corset top and the black velvet ribbon did a good job of hiding it. That way I could walk without tripping, although I did have to keep making adjustments to keep it there. I am a standard size 8 and it fit like a glove everywhere else.

Voted unofficially best dressed! Lol
I debated for a long time whether to wear this dress to a fancy winterfest party or choose another option that allowed me to eat, as this dress is very tight and figure hugging. I finally decided I could probably suck it in for one night and for once I was glad! I had initially rented a size 6 but ended up returning and ordering the 8 so I would size up if you're between sizes like me. The silver embroidery was stunning but do note that you can't wear a bra so may need some sticky boob thingys.

Super cute cropped sweater
This was slightly more cropped than I had hoped - but I made it work and got so many compliments. It was warm and a very high quality knit and it had a boxy feel to it which I really liked. The colours were vibrant and really popped in a sea of winter grey and black. Recommend.

Perfection!
I rented this for my vacay in Australia where it was winter - and it was fantastic! Perfect for dressing up jeans and a t-shirt. Definitely size down as it runs large and is sort of boxy. Even in the small it was oversized but I loved that about it! Wore it several times for indoor catch ups. Will rent again for sure.

Cute but SUPER cropped!
I was really looking forward to wearing this, and I knew from the other reviews that it was cropped, but I didn't realise how cropped it was! Even my high waisted jeans left a lot of skin showing in between! I ended up making it work with a high waisted pencil skirt (left over from my maternity wear!) and a denim jacket. Wore it twice and sent back.

Not my style
I love a VB blazer and the cut and quality of this one was no exception, however it was a little thicker than I wanted for Florida autumn weather (hot) and also on me it felt a little lab coat-y for some reason. Returned without wearing.

Beautiful color- tight in the waist
I had been eyeing this skirt for a while and was excited to receive it. Reading the other reviews I sized up and was happy I did- even in the size 8 (40) it was tight in the waistband but not uncomfortably so. The fabric is a thick but float and the slits up both sides make it easy to move in. It took me a while to find a top to go with it though, as most of my long t-shirts/cami's became bulky around the hips and butt when tucked in. Finally I decided on this cropped white one and was happy with the result. Love the color, I will wear it a couple of times and send back.

My new favorite!
I was looking for an everyday dress that could work for a number of occasions and this Becken dress was perfect. I have worn it so many places! It is quite long (midi length on 5'5") and a heavy fabric that moves beautifully and is not too warm for a Miami spring. It is figure hugging but mostly forgiving and the v neck is not too low to be worn in a professional setting. This dress is super versatile and I wish I could keep it, even my husband asked if I could buy it but alas, a bit too pricey for my budget but I'll definitely rent again!

I only just received this dress which I added to my unlimited order at the last second, and I'm so thrilled! It's really beautiful, fits perfectly and is extremely flattering. I could wear this anywhere- date night, a work dinner, a wedding or birthday party. Sorry ladies, I am holding on to this one for a while!

Nailed it!
The night of the party, my husband decides to mention that the dress code on the invitation (what invitation?) says "evening chic". What does that even mean?! So then I'm panicking because the Uber is on its way and I'm wearing jeans and T-shirt. I threw on a black blouse and this skirt with heels and ran out the door and I have to say, I'm so glad I did! I absolutely nailed the evening chic look and received so many compliments! It's a great skirt, true to size and quite weighty. The metallic sheen makes it a difficult one to dress down for daytime, but I'll wear it again with a black T-shirt and flats. It hits just above the ankle for me (I'm 5'5").

Great Christmas Party dress
I thought this dress was a little frumpy when I first tried it on and I almost didn't wear it, but I was glad I did because I received a lot of compliments during the evening. It is a great color- fire engine red- has plenty of give in the waist and wasn't too revealing.

Super cute but weird fit on the shorts
I was really looking forward to taking this romper on my cruise as it felt like the right balance for "resort chic". It fit beautifully except that the cuffs on the shorts flopped down quite a lot which was annoying and looked weird. It was a lovely weighty silk with a beautiful print, I received a few compliments, and I only wore it to breakfast!

Beautiful but was full length on me!
I rented this for a thanksgiving dinner, and found that the only disappointing thing about it was the length. On the model it looks to be a midi length but on me (I am 5'5") it was floor length making it more formal than I wanted. The fabric is stunning, and the embroidery almost glows in the light with a gold sheen to it. Perfect fall colours!

Gorgeous but very booby!
I had rented this for an event for my husband's work, but found that it was a bit too low cut for that sort of occasion with my C cup chest. If I were planning to wear it to a fabulous party it would be gorgeous. The crepe fabric feels expensive and the cut is very tailored with statement shoulders and is a gorgeous deep green color. It's fairly true to size although I've lost a bit lately so I'm probably somewhere in between a 6 and an 8 and the 8 fit like a glove.

Gorgeous, light and flowy but too long!
This dress was quite different than I expected, as I had thought it would be cotton with some sort of embroidery, but the design is printed on to silk, making it incredibly lightweight and gorgeously flowy. The details are beautiful and classy with the cutouts and low back- although you really can't wear a bra unless you are okay with the strap being seen at the back. I am a medium in some labels and a large in others and I felt the medium was perfect and flattering without being too tight or too loose. It was however, extremely long so I had to wear super high heels (I am 5'5") so that it didn't drag on the ground which is a shame as I was hoping to wear this dress as a more casual "brunch with flat sandals" dress. Otherwise, it is stunning and I don't want to send it back!

Exquisite, flattering and versatile
I had rented this dress for a business dinner - and it may have worked for it too, however I went with something more conservative and wore it instead to a "black tie optional" gala and it was perfect!! It is so beautifully made, the fit is ideal, with just enough skin- especially if you undo some of the buttons on the skirt. I went bra-less but you could easily wear a bra- if it were low enough at the front. Definitely true to size, comfortable, great for dancing! I never ever want to send it back and I feel I could wear it to a plethora of different occasions. Love!

Beautiful fabric and cut
I rented this for a night out in Vegas and I absolutely LOVED it! The zip was unbelievably difficult to do up, we needed three people to do it, but once it was on I never wanted to take it off! The lace is very heavy, but simply gorgeous, and the cut was fantastic. I'm a very standard size 8 although I may have had a few extra lbs on me at that time and it was snug but flattering. (More flattering than in the photo!) I got so many compliments and a wedding dress designer came over to me at a bar to talk about the jumpsuit and look at the lace. I would actually say that this jumpsuit would be a fantastic choice for a bride looking for something a bit different as the quality is apparent immediately. Would definitely rent again for the right occasion.

Bridal shower perfect
I searched the site for ages to find a dress for a bridal shower with no dress code on the invite, and I'm so glad I ordered this one! It was the perfect balance of feminine and classy, dressy and yet relaxed. Although it was difficult to get on over my bust or up over my hips (had to try both ways!) it fit beautifully once it was on. I'm a pretty standard size 8 so I would say it was true to size, although the /sleeves were ever so slightly too constricting but not uncomfortable. The colour and print is just gorgeous, and the fabric was light and floaty but not see through. It would look great on any skin tone. All day I had that wonderful feeling that you get when you feel like you're wearing exactly the right outfit for the occasion!!

Stunning dress!
To be honest, I did not have super high hopes for this dress, but as we were attending a Tango themed gala, I figured it was the right cut and color and ordered it anyway. I'm so glad I did! It fit like a glove and was so flattering! I'm a pretty standard size 8 and the fit was true. The material was thick but not heavy, and for someone still carrying a little bit of baby weight around my "muffin top" area it was super flattering as it showed off my waist but flared out to cover that troublesome area. The shoulder straps were slightly loose and slipped down occasionally but it didn't mean the dress slipped down at all so it was fine. The sleeve bit across the upper arm was flattering, and as I have pretty solid upper arms, I was pleased that it fit comfortably and wasn't too tight like other dresses with a similar style. The color was truly a bright, fire engine red- gorgeous! Didn't need a bra at all either which was great. I received a plethora of compliments all night which and it was easy and fun to dance in! Recommend!

Very flattering on a post baby figure and super comfortable. Very versatile and pretty. Also as someone with broad shoulders, it was still flattering as an off the shoulder.

Cute jacket but I didn't wear it
I liked this jacket a lot, it was high quality and a beautiful fabric. I rented for a visit to Nashville in winter but didn't end up wearing as it was very cold and the cropped length of this jacket meant that it wasn't warm enough. Love the military style and orange piping.

Soft and warm
I rented this coat for a trip to see friends in Nashville in Winter. We're from Florida so I don't have a lot of cold weather options and this was perfect. It was very thick and heavy which made it quite warm, but it only buttoned up so probably not your best option for below freezing temps. But I loved it! Very fashion forward and high quality. Runs true to size with room to wear a thin sweater underneath.

Not my favorite and was too big
Recently I rented another dress (completely different style and brand) in a Medium, and it was waay too tight, so, figuring the holiday eating had caught up with me, I decided to rent this in a large as part of my Unlimited package. Big mistake. I am probably a Medium most of the time, and the large on this was way too big and caused it to be very roomy and unflattering. The fabric is a lovely, heavy and warm fabric, and quite thick so it sort of hung off me and with the numerous layers at the back it made me look huge and voluptuous. It was also a little longer than what is flattering on me, coming down past my knee to an upper/mid calf length. I generally prefer a slightly more conservative length, but this was all wrong. Perhaps if I had ordered a Medium, it may have worked perfectly, and I do like the concept of the open back and bustle layers, but I won't be ordering this one again. My husband was not a fan either.

Gorgeous! Received lots of compliments!
I wore these to my husband's boss's Holiday party and they were a hit. Had lots of compliments and since I wore them with a simple black dress, they were the main feature of the outfit. They are little heavy and quite large so I was thankful that they were clip ons, as my holes are a little sensitive and don't like heavy earrings. I also have a small toddler that likes to touch and pull earrings so there was less risk of her hurting me with clip ons. They stayed on all night without falling off, but weren't so tight that my earlobes hurt so perfect overall!

Not bad but nothing special
I was very excited for this dress. Living in Miami, I am always in need of light and floaty but work and play appropriate everyday dresses and I thought, Rebecca Taylor being one of my favorite designers, that this one would be perfect. There was nothing wrong with the dress, it was light and comfortable, and the fabric is soft, pretty and flow, but the sizes run a little large, and the skirt is fuller that I thought it would be and I found that this was not as flattering on my figure as I expected. Overall, it was not one that people complimented or felt particularly special, but it did the job and was a cute everyday option.

Gorgeous colour and very flattering
At 5'5", I normally shy from jumpsuits that aren't waisted or belted, but this one was a winner with the flared legs. It was very long in the leg, but I was in 6" heels for my birthday dinner so it worked to lengthen my look and was very flattering. The crotch was a little low for me, but it didn't look silly, and my girlfriend who has an unusually long torso and can never wear jumpsuits tried it and it fit her perfectly. The bust area was firm but not tight, I wore a strapless bra but would have felt quite comfortable going without. Also, being a gal with slightly broader shoulders and larger arms, this one provided a flattering cut for shoulders and arms. I wore with a cute cropped black leather jacket and my hair pulled back in a bun with dark lips and the look felt very chic. The only thing I would say is that because of the cut at the side of the legs, it is not super warm if you are planning to wear it in cold climates.

Very classy
This jacket is a fantastic addition to Rent the Runway as it's not something I would pay the retail price for, but is a very elegant, comfortable and versatile addition to any closet. The fabric is soft and stretchy and the texture means that its very flattering, even in white. Reminiscent of a Chanel blazer, the Rebecca Taylor blazer is a little more edgy and I received lots of compliments, both at work from male and female colleagues, and while wearing it out at night. Definitely one I'd love to keep a while longer!

Too small in the arms
I had had my eye on this piece for a really long time and was excited to wear it to a dinner party, however even though the dress fit beautifully in the bust, waist and hips, the black mesh over the shoulders and arms had absolutely no stretch in it, and was really too small to even get it on properly. I wouldn't say I have super large shoulders and arms, but I'll admit that they may be slightly out of proportion with the rest of my sizing as I often find sleeved tops a little snug in that area. I would say that if you're an exact size and completely in proportion, or have petite shoulders and arms, this would be a beautiful choice. Sadly, it didn't work out for me.

Cute, comfortable and different.
I liked this ring a lot, and it was more comfortable than I had expected and fitted my middle finger perfectly, although as a mom of a small child, I would not wear it everyday as it was a little impractical when doing fiddley things such as cooking, cleaning and playing. I wore it for coffee dates, nights out, shopping trips, etc and it garnered a few compliments, or "how unusual!" comments.

The leather is soft and lovely, it adds a touch of class to any outfit.
