Cut is wrong
In the photo, the waist of these pants tapers up from the hip slightly like every other pant in the world. In person, these are cut straight up from the hip like kids would do in a middle school sewing class. It means the drawstring is the only thing that keeps them from falling down or gives any shape, but once you tighten it there’s instantly a 4-5 inch bubble of fabric the entire way around the waist that puffs out like an air donut exactly where you don’t want extra bulk. In my opinion these aren’t wearable. This is a weird miss for BlankNYC.

Perfect
I didn’t expect to love this so much. Fit / cut / fabric are perfect and make this piece so versatile. I will rent again after summer and consider buying.

Daring
I definitely felt a little daring in these. They're not totally comfortable (they're probably not designed to be) but not uncomfortable either. A really striking look. Have to be styled right not to look too "biker chic".

Obsessed
Second time renting these jeans and I love them. They fall beautifully, are so soft and comfy and are a more subtle take on the tie dye trend. Really easy to wear.

Great top
I liked this a lot more than I expected to! Wore twice and enjoyed. Looks great with relaxed fit light denim and sneakers or with black skinny jeans and boots with jewelry.

Interesting proportions
I felt the shoulder pads made the top of the shirt feel disproportionately large compared to the length which then felt too short in comparison. It just looked a bit odd and unfortunately I couldn't wear it for this reason.

Breezy
I am 5'9 and it sat more like a crop top on me, but with high waisted jeans it worked.

Comfy and unique
Slouchy fit, unique design features, comfy/cosy and good quality. Really enjoying this piece and will hold onto it a bit longer!

Gorgeous!
Unfortunately I fell ill and was unable to attend the event I rented this for (so couldn't wear it), but I absolutely loved it. Flattering cut, beautiful color, fluid fabric. I will rent again!

Versatile and easy
The magnetic closure makes it so easy to wear, and the weight is perfect for a chunky wrist piece like this - not too heavy, not too light. Simple and beautiful design. Would rent again.

Cute and easy to wear
I'm not usually a dress wearing kinda girl, but I love Opening Ceremony and decided to try this piece. I'm glad I did! It was fun, easy to wear, a flattering fit and really comfy material. I wouldn't buy this piece but really enjoyed renting it.

WINNER
Makes a statement whilst being super comfortable. This is an amazing piece and I received compliments from friends and strangers alike every time I wore it. It's a very statement/memorable jacket that you wouldn't necessary want to wear year after year, which is what makes it the perfect rental. Pieces like this are why I joined RTR - to have fun with clothes, avoid fast fashion and stay on budget!

Wowzer
This is an incredible piece of clothing. The print, fabric, colors and construction are absolutely flawless. It gathers and flows in all the right places. Waistband has no give - this isn't necessarily a con, just something to be aware of if you're thinking of sizing down. I would say this fits true to size. Felt so great in this dress and would absolutely rent again.

Unique statement for everyday
Loved everything about this hoodie. Comfy and casual yet a bit daring and definitely not "ordinary". Will rent this again.

Versatile and simple
Really great size. I usually go with larger bags but this was a great mid-size bag I could still fit a day's worth of stuff in and even some basic supplies for outings with my toddlers! Really simple design that you can pair with anything. I didn't love the permanent tag and kept it tucked inside. Only returning so I can try the same bag in another color!

Didn't want to return this!
Perfectly oversized, great quality, striking color/pattern. A million compliments on this. I lost count of how many times I wore it. Only returned because I'm changing hemispheres for a month and needed to switch to a warm weather wardrobe! I LOVE THIS COAT. My favorite RTR rental ever.

Runs short for tall girls
Absolutely LOVE this dress. It is so beautifully constructed and the fabric is lux. However I'm 5'10 and the dress comes to just below my butt, so it's simply too short for me to feel comfortable wearing it. Returning unworn but would absolutely recommend to anyone who is either of more average height or who doesn't mind a mini!
