Just v. Leger
It has the Leger qualities you'd expect: sucks one in like a corset, smooths out every inch. Putting it on is an adventure, but it's a head turner for sure. This was the first Leger I've rented and while I anticipated it to be tight, the top seems to be a lot more snug than the bottom. My hips are a lot fuller than my chest and I had trouble breathing in it. Will probably rent again if I need a confidence booster, just a size small.

Sure way to get compliments
This is probably the "loudest" print mix I've ever worn yet it totally worked - the genius of Simon Miller. The sleeves are dramatic and long, had to watch myself when eating. Was surprised it still allows for a bra with the keyhole detail. Well thought out garment - rent it, throw it on and wait for the compliments to roll in.

A comfy showstopper!
Absolutely stunning yet easy to wear. Straps are adjustable (thank goodness!), could wear a straplsss bra if desired. Requires steaming but then holds up well all day. A little big in the waist but still flattering. 10/10 recommend.

Compliments at every turn
Fits TTS but also have some wiggle room given the silhouette. Fantastic fabric, wearable from spring to the hottest days of summer. Does not require ironing and would travel well. Just one of those really great, well designed and executed pieces.

Versatile and comfortable
Definitely hugs all curves, but also conceals imperfections. Fits true to size, foot amount of stretch. Classy but sassy, with a bit of cleavage showing. The only downside was the amount of tags attached - I counted, there were 12 of them. While in a better location than some (towards the bottom) I still felt them all day which took away from the experience.

Pretty but high maintenance
The dress wrinkles super easily. It looks great on freshly ironed but will be a lot less polished as soon as you sit down. Ironing took a while due to various elements. Lots of compliments otherwise, comfortable and has pockets.

Great brand new
Loved this coat when I first rented it, it had tags on. The second time around I could see it does not hold up well with wear or dry cleaning.

Better than you think!
The fabric is light but the ruching is placed strategically. Extremely flattering.

Great quality, but super long straps
I love a knit dress more than most people and was super excited to receive this one. It is flattering, but unfortunately the upside of a thick fabric was its weight. The dress "pulls" down and the straps are super long - this is coming from someone with a long torso, too. Wearing a bra with it meant tugging and pulling up this dress all day. Will not rent again.

Gorgeous color, strange fit
Rented for work, was drawn to the color. I have a small bust and it was quite tight - yet the waste was probably too sizes too big. Couldn't remedy with a belt. Would not rent again.

Well made staple
High quality, great investment piece that could last decades. That said, it didn't give me the confidence that some of the other standout pieces did.

Showstopper
Yes, the dress runs extremely small. I usually rent size 2-4 dresses, got a 6R and could have probably used an 8. That said, I believe this dress can make anyone feel like a million backs. Skin-right yet beyond flattering, beautifully cut and so comfortable. I would buy it if it was a lot less expensive.

Not as photographed
I wish I was more thorough with reading reviews. I rented this dress because of its dramatic open back and was disappointed to see it didn't have one. Overall flimsy, too. Does not feel expensive
