The double layering under the chest area was difficult to get right at first, but it was fine!

LOVED-perfect for vacation and summer
Usually this kind of style dress is not flattering on me because I have a bigger bum and really small chest, but the cut of this dress and the way it falls was perfection. I had to wear nipple covers because when I bent or leaned over the dress gaped due my (said) small chest, but loved this dress so much. Almost bought it

So cute!
Really liked this sweater, would've worn more but I didn't have enough places to wear a sleeveless sweater rn during the winter but I would've if I had shirts/tops to layer underneath. I normally get a medium in sweaters and the small was plenty big and oversized in an intentional way. I have a bigger butt and because this was longer I was afraid it was going to cover my butt and pull the fabric and not look cute (happens often) but this looked super cute and didn't have that issue!

Loved
Recommend this sweater, so comfy, so cute. Loved the red details -- I hate sweaters that show makeup from your neck rubbing off onto the sweater (iykyk)...this definitely didn't do that and it was unique and got a lot of compliments

Glittery?
I didn't realize the thread of the pattern on this was kind of glittery until it arrived. I still wore it and it is cute, but it definitely wasn't what I had in mind. So just be aware of that fact. Good quality. Probably wouldn't rent again, but would still recommend it to people that don't mind it being a little more flashy than just a normal patterned collared sweater.

Really small neck hole
Nice quality but if I rented again I would def size up because the neck hole is so small--and I don't have a large head. The fit everywhere else was nice and pulled together my causal/athleisure outfit.

Good rental
Only wore this once because I had a specific outfit in mind to wear it with, and shockingly it actually all came together. Comfy and not stiff at all, but made my outfit look pulled together. Had pockets which was convenient. Overall recommend this blazer and would definitely rent another pattern/color in same style from the brand if they have it.

Obsessed with this coat. So comfy, literally feels like you are wearing a duvet. The color is stunning. I have worn so many times and am sad to send it back. I receive so many compliments whenever I wear. Love love love. I normally get a medium (at least) in coats because I hate for them to be too small when I am wearing layers-the small was plenty big and oversized in an intentional way.

High hopes, eh..
I liked this sweater enough...but I wish the sleeves were less "ballon" style. The sweater was not thick but the material was not breathable at all--it retained all heat and not in a positive way...since this sweater I bought to wear for early spring.

What is going on...?
I love 525 America, frequently rent items from them, but something is off with this top. I have a very small chest, no matter what I did to make this work it just did not. Idk how it would work on someone with a larger chest. tried wearing it backwards, thinking maybe the criss cross in the back would be cute, still no. The criss cross had too much fabric, resulting in constant adjustment. And then the arms were too tight but lose in the armpits? Don't recommend

Oversized - Statement - Loved
I rented this jacket to wear overtop of a dress for a wedding rehearsal in early Feb. i ended up wearing to several other places I.e. bday brunch or just around casually. It's definitely a statement piece and it's definitely oversized--I probably should've sized down more than I thought I already did, but was still able to pull it over. Loved it and received so many compliments on this jacket it is so unique but definitely attention grabbing. Warm, comfy, loved!

Such a fun piece
Got so many compliments when wearing this and it was so fun to wear! Wish it had 2 pockets, but having only the one was fine. Also, as other reviewers mentioned, the long strings I didn't know what to do with so I tied them behind the back and it was fine. Warm jacket but you can unbutton it and wear it open if you get too warm.

Barefoot dreams blanket - but sweater form.
Obsessed with this sweater it was SO soft and so comfy, felt like barefoot dreams material. Small was perfect for me, normally I would size up to get a longer and more loose sweater that I can wear with leggings, but based on other reviews a small seemed like it would be perfect and it was. I would've kept it for longer but it started getting warm again, so wasn't going to be wearing it for a few weeks. Def would rent again in the cooler months.

Size Down
I am a 27R in other Madewell jeans, but these were way to baggy and not in a way that looked intentional. However, I will likely order them in a size (or two) down because I liked them and they were comfy and not stiff. Only other con is that they were a bit too short for me. I would ideally order these in a long, but on regular is offered. I am 5'7" and have long legs for reference.

Airy and thin material
This skirt fit my waist but was unflattering in the way in hugged my midsection. The material was much thinner than I was expecting and was crepe-y which I also wasn't expecting. This might be good for summer and hotter months, but even still the length was oddly shorter than pictured, in my opinion, and I am 5'7"

Fit well, I have a smaller chest but the ties for the shoulder straps helped so I could tighten and there wasn't any loose fabric. Nice length and got lots of compliments.

Really pretty dress, just didn't fit my frame
Really pretty dress, just didn't fit my frame well which isn't abnormal. I have a small chest and a big butt, so adjustable straps are always a pro for me which this has. However my butt pulled the fabric, which made it tighten around my waist in an unflattering way and also not the style to the dress which is more draped and not meant to be form fitting. The dress is probably better suited for more straight frames, with a bit larger of a chest than me and less of a bum. Really wanted to love!

Who was this made for?!
The top half of this jumpsuit was made for someone who has a larger chest but the bottom Half of the jumpsuit was made for someone without a big bum. I was mystified by the fit of this jumpsuit. Looked like they sewed together the top of a large and the bottom of a small/XS. Was not flattering on my small chest/big hum frame, so I didn't wear.

Loved so much I bought it
Very flattering, adjustable straps, and with tie waist band so you can fit the jumpsuit to your frame. A lot of times jumpsuits are not long enough and cut me at an unflattering point in my somewhat larger calves, this does not do that. I have a bigger bum but this is comfortable and doesn't pull the fabric in weird ways like some can. I also have a smaller chest so I can get away without wearing a bra with this! Can be dressed up or down, highly recommend!

Not flattering
Great quality, pretty detailing. I have an athletic frame-small chest, big bum, thicker thighs and calves. Adjustable straps are nice. The dress draped over my frame wasn't flattering. The fabric tightened around my butt and waist, but was loose everywhere else in an unflattering manner. Probably best for me those without as big of a bum but have a larger chest than me, so you have some shape but on the upper half rather than the bottom so the dress doesn't make you look like you have pudge.

Fit is Off
The fit of the upper portion of the dress around the is off, IMO. I have a very small chest but normally high neckline and racer back styles are very flattering on me. The arm holes are not structured so a lot of side boob action if you are not paying attention to it. The racer back was a lot lower than what I thought I was going to be and the fabric just pulled in weird directions. I wanted to love this dress and the slit was not too high. Ultimately didn't wear for a bachelorette weekend
