STYLIST REVIEW
This dress was cute, but not my style. The fabric is a lot heavier than expected, so this would be a great choice for end of summer/fall events. The size 4 fit and I was able to get it zipped, however I wouldn't be comfortable for very long. I would recommend sizing up to almost everyone in this style due to the tightness around the middle. The band where the white fabric meets the printed fabric is very tight. This dress would look great with nude shoes and gold accessories!

STYLIST REVIEW
I loved this little white dress! The cape makes it super unique and very girly. The fit was great on this style, but you definitely need to wear nude undergarments with this due to the color of the fabric. It runs true to size and I can say I was happy with how the size 4 fit. It does fit a little like a shift dress, so it's not fitted throughout. However, the fabric has no stretch so curvier women should size up. Perfect for a daytime brunch or wedding event!

STYLIST REVIEW
Loved this style! I loved the fabric, the colors, the print, the fit, everything! Super flattering on and off the hanger, this would be a perfect style for a daytime event or wedding. The tightest part is the natural waist area since it is a fit and flare, but I found that it runs pretty true to size regardless. The neoprene is heavier than a lot of fabrics you may be used to, so keep that in mind for hotter days if you're attending an outside event.

STYLIST REVIEW
Cute, flirty romper! The fit on this Kate Spade style is pretty true to size, however the elastic band around the middle is pretty tight. For apple body types or women that carry weight in their stomachs, I would size up due to the tightness of the band. It's also a bit tricky to get in and out of, since there is no zipper and only front buttons. Would be a cute spin on the typical LBD that you see at most cocktail parties.

STYLIST REVIEW
Magenta is my new favorite color! This style was fun because of the interesting hue of the fabric. I was expecting this to be a more casual daytime-type style, but the fabric on this is very slick and heavier than expected, so it's definitely not casual. The high-low hem is perfectly on trend and the color is a bright, fun color for a summertime event. I would recommend this dress for evening events such as cocktail parties, wedding receptions, or formal presentations. The only negative about this style is that it ran a bit big for me. In Nha Khanh styles, I'm almost always a solid size 4, but this style runs a bit big and I would have liked to try on the size 2 as well.

STYLIST REVIEW
This is a very cute and simple style. I really liked the color, however if you have a light/pale skintone, I may suggest straying away since you might look washed out in this style. The fit was great and it fits true to size. The fit is supposed to be looser and not super tight or fitted. The tea-length and the chain strap detailing make this a unique twist on a formal style.

STYLIST REVIEW
This gown is super luxurious and special and you can definitely speak to the quality immediately upon touching this garment. The silhouette is also very slimming due to the ruching and the nice beading on the left side. I tried on the size 40R (2R) and it was a good fit, but a bit snug through the hips. I am usually a true 4, so I think that would have fit a bit better. I'm also about 5'7" and definitely needed the long length, so for heights 5'6" and up, if you plan on wearing heels I would reserve the long length. This gown is great for a summery black tie event.

Super cute cocktail dress! Runs a bit small in the natural waist area, so I would definitely suggest sizing up for your backup. The sheer panels are a fun touch to this style, while still keeping it sleek and sophisticated. Paired with black pumps, this would be perfect for a night out or a reception type event.

STYLIST REVIEW
This is a true Herve style, although I did appreciate the uniqueness of the one-shoulder. The fit was great, but in true Herve form, it is VERY tight, so curvier women or women with larger busts should definitely size up. The zipper is in the back and you definitely need a girlfriend to help you zip this style due to the tightness of the fabric. Super cute with nude heels and great for a cocktail party or a nighttime event.

STYLIST REVIEW
This dress was awesome, I really loved the color pop. It is definitely a bright pink, rather than coral in person so be sure to plan for that. It fits like a true shift and has a baggy shape to it, although I still thought the S was a bit big for my frame, so I'd like to try the XS next time. This is great for a day-to-night event in terms of versatility since you can pair nude or black with this style.

STYLIST REVIEW
This dress is so unique and fun! I really loved the print on this gown - definitely very unique in a sea of solid (mostly black) gowns for a formal affair. I would definitely recommend this for the girl who wants to stand out and be noticed. The print and the exposed back make this a very special dress and something that will look amazing in photos. The fit is pretty standard of a usual BCBG style and it runs true to size. For women with larger busts and/or rib cages, I would recommend sizing up. I also tried on a size 4R, but I am 5'7' and definitely would need to order the size 4L for length with heels.

This skirt was super cute on - I loved it! It sits at your natural waistline, so it's definitely a high-wasited style. This would look great paired with a crop top or blouse and can be dressed up or down.

STYLIST REVIEW
This dress fabric is so cute and fun! I was instantly drawn to this dress because of the fun fabric that it's made from. Almost vintage in feel and texture, this dress is truly a unique piece in an otherwise common A-line style. The fit was great as well, although the middle is a bit tight so busier or curvier women should size up for their backup. A standard bra could definitely be worn with this style as well. This look would be great for a summer wedding or a daytime event. However, I would note also that this fabric is heavier than it looks, so I wouldn't wear it when the temperature is overly hot.

I loved this crop top! This was super cute on, as well as in pictures and on the hanger. Easy to wear and very comfortable. I love the crop top trend for summer, but I especially appreciated the intricate lace detailing on what is usually a common silhouette in crop tops. I would pair this with a high waisted skirt or pants, but not something too detailed in order to let the top shine for itself. This would look great with a statement necklace as well.

STYLIST REVIEW
This top has a very cute printed fabric that I love, but overall it wasn't spectacular. It may be because I tried this top on with a skirt I wouldn't normally pair with this, but this top lacked the wow factor for me. I can say that the garment overall is very comfortable, lightweight, and easy to wear. I would recommend this style with some skinny jeans or pants on the bottom, since the silhouette is somewhat trapeze-like and you don't want to lose your figure with wearing something oversized on the bottom. This top would be great for a day of shopping or a daytime lunch with girlfriends.

LOVED THIS ROMPER! I absolutely loved this romper and the fit was spectacular. This definitely fits true to size, however if you're an apple shape or someone that carries weight in your stomach or natural waist area, I would size up due to the tightness of the elastic band. This romper is perfect for a daytime event or a Sunday brunch! It's definitely very casual, but super cute!

STYLIST REVIEW
This dress is pretty similar to other Clover Canyon styles that I've rented in the past. It fit like expected with the neoprene fabric and the sheath silhouette. Because of the print, I felt that it was more appropriate for resort or vacation wear, but it's definitely a unique dress appropriate for a night out. The only negative for me, was the length of the dress. I'm about 5'7" and Clover Canyon styles usually hit about mid-thigh on me. This dress was almost to my knees and felt a bit too long to wear out for a night event. Nothing a little hem tape can't fix, but I do believe that this style would look better on women 5'7" or above.

STYLIST REVIEW
I loved the fit of this style. The length is perfect for a conservative or modest event, while still maintaining some flair and fun. I love the print of this fabric as it brings some detail to an otherwise all-white dress. I would recommend this style for an afternoon event or daytime party. I don't know that it would be appropriate for a wedding since it's mostly white, but the pleats definitely give it some edge and it would killer for a non-wedding event. The only negative thing I have to say about this style is the elastic band that fits you around the smallest part of your waist. I found it to be VERY tight, even though the SR was a good fit for me. I'm usually about a size 2/4 and I thought that this elastic band was pinching very tightly in the stomach. I would say for apple or straight & narrow body types, to size up for this reason. If you don't have a small natural waist, the size up would probably be more comfortable.

Stylist Review!
I LOVED this dress. The fit, the length, the color, everything was perfect about this dress! I tried on the size 4R and it fit like a glove. It does have a side zipper, so people with a larger rib cage or bust, might have trouble getting it zipped. I wore this with no bra and it was perfect. It has a very deep V on the front and the back, so you would need to have the proper bra or go without for this style. The color is beautiful, but I would stay away if you have a paler skin tone as it might wash you out. Perfect for a destination wedding or a daytime wedding!

This dress is very pretty in person, but not a good silhouette for me personally. The style would be great for a black-tie affair or wedding. The color is beautiful and a very true blue. I think silver accessories with blue accents would complete this look and give it a nice finish. I tried on the size 4R and it fit me pretty well, although it was large in the chest and shoulders. I am 5'7" and with heels the length on the 4R was pretty good, although it was a bit short in the front. Great dress overall, just not for me.

Stylist Review!
I loved this style! I would have not picked it out myself judging from the photos online, but in person it is very beautiful and very flattering! The color is very vibrant and the material is really lovely. I tried on the size 4R, but it was a bit big in the arms and body. I would have liked to try a size 2R if available, but the jeweled collar may have been too tight at that point. This gown is perfect for a destination wedding or a semi-formal dress code. The color is very springy/summery, so I wouldn't suggest this for a fall or winter event, but it's absolutely perfect for the warm seasons.

Stylist Review
I was so obsessed with this dress in pictures, but it was not what I had anticipated in person. The material of this dress is great; a thick, heavy neoprene material that does wonders for problem areas and slims overall. The only complaint I really had about this style was the length. I am 5'7" and was wanting this to hit me above the knee, however it came down past my knees and has an extremely large circumference. The skirt itself is very stiff and heavy and can stand up on its own. The sequins on the bottom of the dress are such a cute touch, as well as the female face pattern, however this style is way too much for a last minute outfit. This would be great for a themed party or as a statement look.

I loved this dress! This was the perfect long-sleeved LBD that was sexy and sleek, but still sophisticated. The material is very heavy and thick, which is great for hiding problem areas and smoothing lines. This dress is also very comfortable and easy to wear. There is a metallic element sewn into this dress, but it's not scratchy or uncomfortable like some styles can be. I loved the cutout in the back for a hidden surprise as well. This dress is great alone or paired with tights and boots for winter.

Stylist Review
I rented this dress as another option for a party I was attending. I love the look of this dress in pictures and thought it looked like something different than the typical LBD. The dress is a really cute and unique style, however it's definitely more of a casual look. The material is very lightweight and almost like a linen blend. The fit was a bit strange, however. I am generally a solid size 4 and the 4 fit me, but it was a bit big across the shoulders and in the stomach area. The size 2 probably would have fit me better. I would definitely size down in this dress for your backup size! Overall, this is a cute look but save this one for a casual event.

I rented this dress for a friends birthday party out on the town. This dress looks so different in person than it does in pictures - for the better! The sequin detail is really lovely, but doesn't give you the feeling that you're wearing a giant disco ball as it's a subtle pattern. The size and fit ran a bit bigger than I had anticipated. I wore the size S, but it seemed to be looser and bigger as the night went on. I probably could have gotten away with the XS for a better fit. The material is a heavy mesh, but still a bit see through when it's on, so I would recommend nude undergarments. Overall, it was a great choice for a winter night out.

This dress was so fun! I tried on the size 40R (US 2R) and it fit great! I'm normally a size 4R, so this particular size was a bit tight throughout the natural waist and mid-section, but still comfortable. The tightest part of this dress is the seam where the skirt meets the bodice, so women with a larger midsection, should consider sizing up. I'm also 5'7" and this dress hit me about mid-calf which is a great tea-length. This style would be great for a more casual black-tie event.

This jumpsuit is something unexpected! After viewing the pictures, I wasn't sure that this would be flattering on me. But this style was a huge surprise once I had it on! The material is very light-weight, soft and stretchy. The fit is pretty true to size and the material is very giving. I tried on the size 2R, but am normally a size 4R and I feel as if it would have fit even better in my correct size. Overall, this style is very loose fitting and casual. For women with larger bust sizes, I wouldn't recommend this style because of the deep-V (it is REALLY deep) and you wouldn't be able to wear a bra. This style would be great with heels for a day brunch or a early evening event.

This is such a gorgeous dress and a very unique style for a black tie event. I tried on the 40R (US 2) as that was all that was available at the time. It was a bit snug on me, as I'm usually a size 4. The fabric is much more stretchy than I had anticipated and the dress itself is actually very comfortable, considering how fitted this style is. The length was an issue on this particular style however. I'm 5'7" and the length of the regular hit me at my ankle bone. Even if you're 5'6", I would still consider the long length. Overall, the style made me feel as if I was in an old James Bond movie and I think this would be a huge hit at a formal affair!

This jumpsuit was amazing, I totally wish I could keep it. The material is a bit heavier than I expected, but very soft and very comfortable. I opted for no bra since the back is open and there is a bit of boning on the sides; it worked just fine! I would advise wearing a sticky bra for those with larger chests, but smaller busts can get away with nothing. I would also recommend seamless undergarments so you aren't showing any lines. Overall, this is a killer look for an outdoor, summer event. You could pair it with cute sandals for a casual look or some open toed heels to dress it up a bit. 5 stars all the way!
