Not for me
Did nothing for me. A bit frumpy, heavy and unflattering.

Nice
Nice shirt. Nice overall fit, pretty colors, nice but kind of thin material, but the turtleneck part was a bit loose (stretched out or designed that way?). Wore with jeans and with work pants.

Flattering on a tallish person.
Really liked this blouse. But the material is beautiful, the look unique, and it can be worn on many different occasions (I wore it to a museum). Although it is sleeveless, the material is somewhat heavy so it can be warmer than it looks.

Nice. Wore it for night and day
Light, good for warm weather, very bright and cheerful, and quite unique. Wore it several times and got quite a number of compliments.

Didn't wear it
Shoulders were too small and the length was a little short for someone of my height.

Didn't wear it.
Kind of clown-like when I got it on. Shoulder frills were asymmetrically ironed and bottom was way too blousy and full. Didn't wear it.

Nice, comfy, pretty blouse but too big
I got a large (recommended size) but it was definitely too big. So its hard to say if it was "true to size" because I usually wear a small or medium. Nevertheless, I enjoyed wearing it. It was quite comfy and perfect for summer.

A bit too old-lady
I loved the material and it was well made. My husband complimented me on it as well. But I thought it was a little too frumpy for me.

This was a bit too masculine for me and also the material is a bit heavy for summer.

Nice blouse for work and zoom
I wore this several time and enjoyed it. Looks great on zoom. Several nice compliments. I did think the material was a bit itchy, otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

Many compliments
It's funny but I didn't love this shirt--the material was a bit itchy and it seemed a bit too blousy and shapeless. But I got tons of compliments on it so I guess over all, it was a pretty good choice.

Pamina Abstract Blouse

Nice for zoom and work with a few caveats
I liked this shirt. It looks good on camera and is flattering colorwise. But the sleeves are quite baggy and long so its not great for actual hands on work. Also, the material is kind of heavy. Next time, I would only rent in cooler months.

Loved this shirt. Its bright and cheerful and looks great with a pair of black jeans. Would rent again.

Didn't wear it; no appropriate for work
Didn't wear it. I'm not terribly buxom and the neckline was too low for me to wear to work/on zoom.

Nice enough but not terribly comfortable.
Pretty dress. Received compliments but the dress was uncomfortably scratchy wherever there was no lining (upper chest, arms). Also, the zipper was not easy to use. I wouldn't rent it again. I just prefer comfort to appearance.

Lovely dress.
Nice dress. It fit well but I think works better for someone with a slightly larger bust to fill out the front. I had to wear a padded backless bra to fill it out and keep the sides from gaping a bit. The material is quite heavy which I enjoy. the long is not terribly long. I'm 5'8" and it was just the right length with two inch heels.

Lovely, comfortable, formal dress.
A beautiful dress for a formal occasion. The color, which is bluer than in the picture, is quite flattering. I originally hoped to wear an 8L or 10L but only 10R was available. It was the perfect length, even with 3 inch heels and the dress fit well. It's possible I could have done better with an 8, but not much better!. I received many compliments, even from strangers. I have rented 5 or 6 times from RTR and this was among my favorites.

A little too matronly for my taste
My first choice dress at the last minute was unavailable. This dress was chosen for me as a substitute by Rent the Runway. The dress hugged my curves, was the perfect length with 3 inch heels, and was comfortable but, overall, I felt it made me look too matronly and I wore my second choice instead.

Pretty color, loved the way it draped and moved
The gown was my second choice but I ended up wearing it when the other dress proved too matronly. I enjoyed the gown. The color is lovely and it flowed beautifully. I had to struggle a bit with the zipper. Also, beware because the dress is long even with 3.5 inch heels.

Nice but not a wow for me
The dress is pretty but I wasn't blown away. Perhaps this is all because I would have done better with a larger size. The dress fit well except at the waist where it was too tight and caused the dress to wrinkle a bit in front. The length was perfect with 4 inch heels. I did get a few compliments from strangers (this was not an event where I knew anyone) but I didn't feel as glamorous as I would have liked.

A lovely dress but could have used something a little more glitzy
The dress was lovely. Pretty color, floaty and silky. The size definitely runs big (maybe I should should have used a 4?); I would have been lost without the fashion tape at the neck. In the end, although I liked the dress, I could have used something with a little more glitz and perhaps more form fitting for this holiday Xmas charity ball, especially when my date has more jewelry than I do! This is perhaps a better dress for a less formal affair.
