Awesome fit, super comfortable, cool yet classy - perfect summer work dress.
The title pretty much sums it up! I usually wear a 0 in derek lam but got a 2 so i would have a looser fit for work. I got a million compliments and was so comfortable all day. Since I'm on the shorter side, the dress fell just below the knees (so longer than on the model), but it looked great with a pair of chunky black platform sandals. Totally effortless outfit.

Showstopper elegant b+w dress
I rented this dress for a black tie wedding in late June. When I say this is a show stopper I mean it - guests, photographers, servers, band members all literally stopped in their tracks to tell me how much they loved this dress. And I felt fantastic wearing it. Definitely best for women with small busts given the deep V and white silk top. I wore nipple petals and used some fashion tape to make sure the top stayed in place and was completely comfortable all night. I paired w a Dannijo necklace I rented which was also perfect. Highly recommend.

Awesome leather jacket that can be dressed up or down.
I rented this jacket with my unlimited subscription and kept it for about two months during the spring. I LOVED it and would have purchased it to keep had it been less expensive. I wore it with everything - jeans and a tank, short and long dresses, skirts and tops, and even over a dress to this wedding. The XS was relatively fitted so couldn't wear anything thick under it but the weather was generally warm enough when I wore it that didn't need to. The jacket is metallic and a little shiny so it is great as a statement piece or as a staple for someone who likes a little flare in their wardrobe.

Beautiful attention grabbing dress
I rented this for an early fall wedding in Colorado. The color, cut style are all very beautiful and the dress looks and feels much more expensive than it is. The only issue that I had was that I didn't receive my backup size and the XS was pretty tight. It worked but it was a little hard to walk up stairs and sit super comfortably for someone who is petite but muscular. Other than that, highly recommend!

Incredibly elegant and flattering white drape dress
I rented this for a black tie Halloween masquerade ball in NYC (hence the mask). Since it wasn't a wedding, it was a great opportunity to wear a white dress and this one was beautiful. The material and draping of the dress are both very elegant and classy and the length was perfect for a petite woman like me - long enough to be formal but not so long that I had to wear 5" heels (I wore 3" silver and gold pumps). Not sure how the top would work for a bustier woman but it was great for me with no bra - just stick ons. Highly recommend!

Standout dress for wedding in Spain
This is a gorgeous, standout dress for any occasion, but worked particularly well for a wedding I attended in Spain. The color is beautiful and the bell sleeves are awesome - super fun to dance with. Loved the off the shoulder on this dress, which sat in the perfect place and stayed in place - not like some off the shoulder dresses that you have to keep adjusting. The dress is form fitting for sure, but thick enough that I didn't feel like every single bump could be seen. I couldn't manage to find a strapless bra that didn't create a line in the fabric, but the dress was fitted and thick enough that I didn't need one. Highly recommend.

Super fun jumper for 30th birthday!
I wore this jumper for my 30th birthday party - a daytime backyard party. It was exactly what I was going for - fun, unique, not too dressy but still put together. It was great for the weather - sunny, mild spring day - bc of the shorts + long sleeves. Every single person at the party complimented me on it and it was comfortable enough to completely relax and not worry about what I was wearing. The only con was that for a petite woman with a relatively short torso and narrow hips like me, the top part was a little long but I was able to tie the belt in such a way that made it work. Totally recommend.
