Couldn't get sizing right
I tried 2 different sizes but couldn't make it work. Very pretty and love the pockets! If the sizing is right, could wear without a bra.

Perfect!
I was struggling to find a dress for a black tie optional wedding at 12 weeks. Not showing yet but up 2 cup sizes and rented 4 options--only this one fit and it was perfect! I could wear a regular black bra, it was comfortable, and the perfect length. Strangers went out of their way to compliment it!

Rent it!
I wore this a few times and hesitant to return! Wore out to dinner and to the theater. Ankle length on me so could wear flats. Wore end of first trimester/beginning of second and felt good on my changing body.

Fun but small!
I wore these to a concert and loved the look. Just tight around the waist so would size up next time.

LOVED but size up
I really loved this for the holidays! The large silver buttons add a little something extra. I just wish I got a S instead of the XS. Still wearable but tight in the arms and looked better unbuttoned.

Loved it!
Fun print, perfect for jazz fest in the NOLA heat. Easy to go to the bathroom in. Only downside was that arm holes were pretty gaping. I wore a tank bc otherwise my bra was showing when I lifted my arms. I'd still rent again!

Great summer bag!
So cute and goes well with anything--casual or dressy. An easy clasp but it doesn't zip so items aren't super secure. There is one internal zipped pocket.

Didn't wear
It just didn't do anything for me, looked a bit like a potato sack. Maybe a belt would have helped but didn't have one that worked. Looks cute on others in the reviews so hoped for the best but just didn't work for me.

Good but not great
My usual size worked but was very form fitting; if I went up a size I think the arm holes would have been too big. Liked it for a night but wouldn't rent again.

Gorgeous and comfy!
Perfect length for petites and easy to wear all night. I am 5'3 and wore the regular length, which worked even changing into sneakers. Could wear a regular bra and just tuck one strap. Such high quality sequins and got a lot of compliments!

Favorite rental yet
At 5'3, it's rare to find a jumpsuit that is the right length and the petite was perfect. I wore this to dinner and a show and it was comfy, possible to zip myself, and just the right amount of sparkle. I thought the sparkles were going to be silver but they were multicolored. A really fun outfit for a night out--highly recommend!

Wore over and over
I loved this coat! A woman stopped her car to compliment it while I was walking to lunch--that's how cute it is. Also very warm for 40/50 degree weather. I also got caught in the rain and it dried fast/still looked great. I'll definitely rent it again!

Perfect!
I wore this to a wedding in France where the attire was “festive cocktail” and thought it was perfect. Very light and easy to pack—it didn’t wrinkle at all! Could wear w/o a bra and the colors/ruffles were so pretty. I was able to wear with flats and at 5’3 the dress didn’t drag on the ground at all. I got a ton of compliments. Highly recommend!

Loved it!
Reviews were really mixed but I thought the crop was the perfect length with high waisted shorts and the neckline showed a little skin but not too low cut. I was worried about it being too warm in the NOLA heat, but I wore on July 4th at an evening BBQ and it was great. I wouldn’t wear mid day in the blazing heat but great for a summer evening. Paired with white jean shorts and felt cute!

I wore this on our trip to France and it was perfect for the 60ish degree weather. I usually wear a size 0 but it runs small so the 2 was perfect. Made any outfit seem more elevated and I got tons of compliments.

Amazing
I loved this bag and considered buying it. Perfect for every day, vacation, or dinner out. Held everything—sunglasses, phone, wallet, sunscreen etc. It is hard to button but I left it open and everything still felt secure. I liked the removable strap option, thought the strap was good for daytime and no strap when I went out to dinner.

I love this and am considering buying it. I get so many compliments when I wear it. Both times I've rented it I've worn it to a festival in the pretty brutal heat and it's perfect.

Mardi Gras magic!
This was perfect for Mardi Gras weekend! I could have sized down for a better fit but only the 2 was available and it worked just fine! Also the pant length worked great with just a slight heel/platform. Highly recommend if you want to sparkle and get a ton of compliments!
