Meh
This dress is just ok. The horizontal stripes are not flattering to the stomach area if you have ANYTHING but washboard abs. I liked the halter neck situation. But I should have known better with these stripes.

Cute Dress for Daytime Brunch
I wore this to a charity bingo brunch. It was cute with nude heels and a nude bag. I am very busty so it was a bit weird in the chest for me. I had to adjust it a few times throughout the afternoon so that is why I gave it 4 stars. The actual straps are supposed to be adjustable but I dont know if it is due to the fabric or just the specific dress I had, we couldn't make the straps budge one bit. But overall, very cute and flattering to the figure.

Love these jeans!
You can dress up with a blazer or dress down with a tank and white sneakers. So cute. Not a whole lot of stretch, if any, but they also dont seem to get stretched in the butt after wearing for a while.

Love these
So comfy and flattering. I like the lower rise of them and the wide leg is not too wide more of just like a relaxed fit. Looks super cute with white tennis shoes or some pointy toed pumps

Not super flattering
I did not like the way the tie sat on my mid section. I found it to make my stomach look larger instead of thinner which what belting usually helps with. The material and pattern was gorgeous but just not the best fit for my body.

Great dress!
Fit wonderfully. Got lots of compliments. Wore it to work and a work dinner. If you are tall, it's a great fit if you are short, this may be too long for you.

This fabric is horrible
The material of this blazer is horrible if you are trying to look professional. It gets wrinkled almost immediately. Additionally, the blazer really has no shape. It just hangs there and didn’t do my top heavy body any favors. This is probably one of my top 5 worst rentals.

Love these!
I love these jeans. I rented them 2-3 times and then decided to go ahead and buy them. I am tall and these were long enough for me to wear flats or heels with.

This jacket was just meh to me. Nothing special. The jacket is thinner than I had anticipated. I did feel it ran a bit small in the chest.

Runs very small
This ran so small. I sized up one since a lot of VB stuff seems to run slim but I should have sized up at least 2. It was also way too short on me to be appropriate for work.

Didn’t wear but very nice fabric
I didn’t end up wearing this. It was a nice feeling/looking fabric. Looked and felt expensive but the print and cut of the dress just felt too matronly to me, even to wear to work. But very nice quality.

Sunday Brunch
I wore this for family Sunday Brunch. I liked it and it was very comfortable. I am postpartum and so I enjoyed the give it had. Next time, I would order a medium to have a little less fabric as I felt like the extra fabric added a bit of volume that I did not need.

Great shirt for work
This fit well. I wore with jeans and dress pants tucked in. It is long enough to tuck but also not too long that it looks dumpy if you leave the tail out. I did think the sleeves were a bit short but still came to my elbow. I am tall and have long arms so it likely isn't short on most people. Very nice fabric. Great rental!

Felt classy and cute while pregnant at work. Dressed it up with heels or down with designer tennis shoes, hugged the bump and my body beautifully. I wore it probably 6 times while I had it rented. My top rental this year by far!

Pretty colors but runs big
This dress runs big. I rented it at 22 weeks pregnant to wear around town running errands or possibly for Easter but it is large even with a pregnant belly. It doesn’t photograph well either due to the excess fabric. Pretty in person with the colors and fabric but not super flattering.

Very cute but very short
I’m 22 weeks pregnant and 5’9 and have long legs and this dress was too short on my for work due to the slits. I will wear out to brunch with girlfriends as my bump looked so cute but not appropriate for an office setting.

I liked this blazer a lot but not enough to buy it. Wore it with white jeans and white tank body suit. It is for sure oversized but depending on how you style, looks super cool and chic.

Very cute and comfy
I really enjoyed this rental. The stretch in the top allowed for my 34G chest to fit in and stay covered. I wore to work with a blazer and out to dinner without the blazer. My fiancé thought it was adorable and very flattering.

Loved this dress.
Fit true to size. Long enough but the top keeps the dress sexy. Wore to work and on a date. When I wore it to work, I paired with heeled sandals and a cardigan and on the date, I wore it with some high heeled sandals.

Love this bag
Such a fun bag. Not huge and no zipper so you have to be careful not to over stuff but comfortably fits my iphone, lipsticks and keys. It has a zipper pocket inside for cards which is nice that they weren’t floating around with the bag being an open hobo style.

Fabulous!
Loved this dress. Wore it twice. Once for a work event and once for a wedding welcome reception party. For work, I had to wear a black cami bralette under it so that I didn’t have too much cleavage. Great material. Doesn’t really wrinkle and very breathable. Can be styled so many ways. For work, I wore with boots and for the party, I wore with some strapped black sandals.

Runs very small and short
Thought this may be cute for work but too low cut for work and while I sized up and I could get it on, still felt tight in the chest and too short to wear to the office. Didn't end up wear it.

Beautiful, rich fabric
I was bummed I didn't wear this. As other reviewers noted, size up! I got my usual size 8 thinking I could squeeze in since it was unavailable for my dates in a 10. I got it on but couldn't zip it over my chest. The colors are so rich and this dress looks expensive. Made of heavy velvet and the details are divine. Wish it would have worked or I had the backup size but will look to rent again in the larger size and see what happens.

Really wanted to love this
I wanted to love this. The fabric is stretchy with a bit of sparkle in the green thread. It is gorgeous and I sized up per the recommendations from other renters. It fit great except very unforgiving in the stomach area. Looked like I was 5 months pregnant (and I'm not). Maybe it was because the fabric is so stretchy but it wasn't for me. Gorgeous color for a fall/winter wedding or event.

Beautiful dress.
I normally wear an 8 but sized up for this dress. It fit like a glove. I have a curvy shape and a 34g bra size. Easily wore my strapless bra under this. Didn't have to adjust at all even after dancing all night. A bit on the longer side but I'm 5'9" so didn't look weird on me but just a word to shorter ladies.

Very interesting top
Very cute once you get in it. To be honest, quite difficult to put on. Had to reference the photo on the app to ensure I had it on correctly. It showed cleavage but not too much. My boyfriend loved it and I got lots of compliments at the party on how interesting it was. Could have probably gone with a medium as the shoulders were a bit broad for me. Not sure my chest would have fit in the medium though. Cute for a one time wear but not something I would buy.

Gorgeous!
Very versatile! I rented it for Christmas Eve with my family for our annual party. Can we worn with tights and a turtleneck if it is cold or a thick sleeveless bodysuit or cute tank top. Short on my long legs but not too short. Can be worn with family without being too scandalous but still sexy. The material is nice. It is faux but doesn't look cheap. Definitely will wear and style again.

So cute!!!
Love this dress. It is stunning. I was worried the fabric would be cheap looking but very classy. I sized up to a 10, usual wear an 8 but I don't like super tight faux leather outfits. Makes things look cheap. My large chest fit wonderfully in it. My boyfriend couldn't take his eyes off of me.

Pretty color but unfortunately didn't work for me
The cut outs bit weird and showed mostly my arm pits. I have a very large chest and so possibly that is why it was a weird fit. Pretty color and nice knit fabric.

Great dress for transitioning back into the office
I love this dress! Fits perfectly. Not too long but not to short. For reference, I am 5'8" and it hits me about mid thigh. You can dress it up with heels or wedges (which is how I wore it) or you could wear a flat sandal if you can get away with it at your office. Nice fabric, thick but stretchy. Will definitely be looking for more DVF to rent in the future.

I loved this dress! Got so many compliments!
I think it fit true to size. I ordered the 8 and the 10. The 8 fit but since I am very large chested, there was a little too much cleavage for a work holiday party. I went with the larger size but for another event, the size 8 would have been fine. Very form fitted so looks very good if you have an hour glass figure. I would definitely rent this one again!
