Weird fit in the chest area
I really liked the color and was comfortable to wear around NYC in a late summer day. However, the chest was weird. I'm a 34C and felt tight while also extremely low. The sides also had a weird area of extra fabric (please see my uploaded picture). Would rent again as I wore it with a jean jacket and mostly didn't bother me.

A safe bet
Post baby, my weight keeps fluctuating. Hence, was happy to have this dress, as it was very easy to wear and wide enough for my hips (40" 2nd hip). Wore it around NYC and 2 receptions.

Wish I had taken a pic
It made my outfit and absolutely loved it! Was worried since there is no adjustment, but seemed to fit me like a glove. Can't see a small fitting anyone that is not a 34C.

Shrunken top
When I first saw the top, I thought "no way will it fit!" I'd say it is highly shrunken from use, and it was like 6-8" wide. However, it stretched so much that it was not uncomfortable to wear and it me (34C). It's not the most flattering post baby, but wore it 3Xs (once as a skirt) and loved it.

Nice contrast coat
Rented this piece for a trip to cold weather. XS was fitting and just perfect. I am a 32B/34B and it barely closed without a sweater underneath. Very well-made, warm, and woven material. Having only one button did not bother me. Would totally rent again!

Fits me in the third trimester
This is truly a pregnancy jacket. When I unzipped the sides, my belly fit like a glove. Not sure if it would fit if I was 2" wider at the belly. Loved the faux fur accent at the collar. Was also very warm. At 5'3", it went to my knees so I loved the extra warmth when I was walking or sitting on cold benches. I will be very sad when my pregnancy is over and I will have to return it! Every pregnancy is different. For reference, I am in week 39 and my approx. circumference measurements are 30" above the belly, 40" at the belly, 38.75" below the belly, and 40.5" at the largest part of my hips.

The undershirt saves you
It was super cute with jeans. Wore to a basketball game and felt warm enough to take my jacket off. I loved that the under shirt look made it a longer fit because it covered my butt and belly. In my photo you can see that the belly would have shown otherwise as it's borderline too big for it. For reference, at week 39 my approx. circumference measurements are 30" above the belly, 40" at the belly, 38.75" below the belly, and 40.5" at the largest part of my hips.

Loved this dress! Wore it at week 37 & 38 for my wk 38 photos, around town with a jean jacket, & to a Friendsmas. The material was a tad bit itchy, which is expected with the composition. It was very stretchy and I know I could have worn it in earlier weeks because it did not look stretched at the belly upon receipt. For reference, at wk 37 my approx. circumference measurements are 30" above the belly, 39" at the belly, 38.75" below the belly, and 40.5" at the largest part of my hips.

Size up and they will be comfortable
I am usually a 0-4 so I decided to order the UK 10 / US 6 and it was the best decision ever. A week later and I’ve already worn these 4 times! I love them because you can adjust them to fit your belly. Legs are loose for good circulation. I am nearing the max length for the overalls to fit.

Fits me in the third trimester
This was a very nice sweater to rent. It was thicker than usual and had texture to it. The back had a mesh, so I wore it with a jacket in the chilly evenings. Note that for my belly, the front was a tad bit short. Not a problem with a skirt (pictured) or pants that went over the belly. A huge problem with my low-rise maternity jeans. Every pregnancy is different.

Super cute and versatile pattern. I also liked the quality. Great fit for my belly but not flattering at all. Because it is not fitted, it won’t show your silhouette. Every pregnancy is different.

Fits me in the third trimester
This jacket was really warm and fit around my belly... truly perfect if you are looking for something to keep you warm in the winter. It was sadly a bit too big for me because only size US 6 was available and I am usually a size US 0-4. This jacket won't be flattering when zipped up (looks like a firefighter jacket to me) because it has a loose fit and tucks in at the butt, adding to the round shape. I did like that it is reversible. The fleece side looked really cute unzipped. Every pregnancy is different. For reference, I am in week 37 and my approx. circumference measurements are 30" above the belly, 39" at the belly, 38.75" below the belly, and 40.5" at the largest part of my hips.

The sweater was just as expected. I sized up to a medium for longer sleeves. I didn't have to wear high waisted jeans (in photo) but would have been a better choice.

Nice color scheme
I loved the colors. It gave a 80's vibe and nicely paired with bell bottoms and booties or boyfriend jeans and white chucks. I ordered a small and it was really high and fitted (I am a 34B for reference). Next time I'll be ordering a medium for more breathing room.

Not ideal for an hourglass shape
I struggle with a small torso and wide hips (size 2 and size 8). However, this has stretch so I have it a try. The material was so pretty but the dress was too short and the chest area too stretched. I felt like even with stickies (none pictured) the straps were too far apart to provide good coverage. Maybe this dress shrunk as I didn't see this in other reviews. Maybe a size 4 would have made me like this. Unfortunately, I went with another dress.

Cardigan with a twist
It looked weird buttoned up with my hourglass frame, so I left it open and paired it with a white and then a black turtleneck. It's a really warm and non-itch material. Loved that the sleeves flair, giving your traditional cardigan a twist.

Really warm and versatile
This light gray peacoat is more of a staple. I wore it with a thin turtleneck with/without a cardigan and was really warm with it in 50-60 degree weather. I like that it's smaller on the waist so it's not too boxy. Deep pockets and great quality!

Not made for my curvy body
I feel that this dress was true to size, BUT it was pretty straight all the way and had no stretch. You can see in the picture that it fit in my hips, but was loose in the back since my waist is much thinner. Definitely not for those with curves. Unfortunately was unable to wear to a wedding.

Embroidered dress
The design and details are prettier in person. Ex: the cuffs have velvet ribbons on them. The dress was loose on me (size 4) but size 2 was not available. Since I wore a jacket most of the day and it was black, the loose sides didn't really show. Overall nice dress for a party.

Still dreaming about this coat!
I rented this coat for the Nutcracker ballet and Christmas parties. Received many compliments, I was SO warm in it, and loved the deep pockets. Pretend like you get to bring your favorite furry blanket around and this is it. Beware, it is pretty 'thick.' I loved that about this jacket and found it true to size.

Do not size down
The problem with this sweater wasn't that it was too cropped (which it was). Instead, the sleeves were short and too tight on my thin forearms. It felt like I was trying my baby cousin's sweater as my hands barely went through. Had to take it off immediately upon trying it on. A true bummer, as it has a really pretty design. If you're 5'3" and about 115 lbs, do yourself a favor and order a medium! I am typically an XS/S.

Cute and stretchy dress
This dress was golden!! Sequence did not get stuck anywhere and I felt great in it. I'm a size 0-2 on top and can be 6-8 at the hips (yay hourglass), so I always struggle with bodycon dresses. However, because it stretched, the bottom did not feel tight or too high. It was perfect!

Wore this to a conference and received many compliments. I am a 32B bust size with narrow shoulders, so I wish the size 0 was available. However, after a while I gave in to a size 2 and after rolling up the sleeves, it did not look too big.

Warm, comfy, & compliments all around!
I received so many compliments at work, at the airport, and from family. What I loved: it is so lightweight, reversible (you'd have to buy to remove the tag), you can roll up the sleeves for a different look, and it's super warm. Pockets are solid. Not your typical teddy bear jacket. Can't wait to rent again!

Casual look
I'm usually a small, so I ordered an XS to shy away from the oversized look. Was truly comfy for work and also wore it on the weekend with jeans to run errands. Note you will definitely need a sweater underneath to stay warm. It's more of a blazer and has no buttons. It also has no hems, so it looked weird when I rolled up the sleeves.

Too loose
The waist was the size of the skirt, so for people with small waists (me), it was not flattering. Would have to wear a big sweater to cover that but that is also not flattering for my body shape (hourglass).

It fit perfectly and was super cute!
True to size, given I have a small waist and big hips (34 to 38") I was worried it would be too tight but the stretch material made it fit like a glove.

Cute and stylish, downside: it is very puffy.
I ordered XS after I saw a review suggesting it for a less-puffy look, but quickly regretted it. I'm petit on top (bra size is 34B) and the XS was uncomfortably small at the shoulders. Could really only wear it unzipped. If you typically wear a small, stick with it.
