A bit short but SO flattering

This was my most worn piece this month!! I got this to wear to the office and it was a bit on the fence in terms of length, so I ended up wearing mostly for evenings and weekends. I’m 5’9 and the sleeves were surprisingly OK on me! The drop waist is super flattering for less-curvy people so I def appreciated this! Looked super cute with ballet flats!!!

Perfect LBD

Purchased!! Def a little short for the taller gals but the flare at the bottom helps a bit.

so flattering!

I wore this to a friends birthday party and it was perfect! It cinches and flares in all the right places—so flattering. My only complaint is the length. I had to be very careful not to bend over or I would have flashed some people!

Okay

I can see why other reviewers said this dress wasn’t flattering. The dress was okay. It kept riding up and the neckline was loose on me so the tag would show. Overall it was okay and I received compliments but I wouldn’t rent again.

Stretchy smocking, fitted on tummy

I liked this but didn't end up wearing it. The tight smocking on the waist wasn't flattering on me. Best for a more hourglass figure. It runs short

I wanted to like this but it was just too short to wear

This is a really cute dress. It’s well made and the material is nice and smooth. It’s got some weight to it but it’s not too thick. I may have been able to get away with wearing it but my husband hated it so it was a nope. I paired it with nice tennis shoes and it was cute and more casual but if you have more slender legs, a heel would be a cute look. I liked the gathers that go up under the bust-line.

Form Fitting LBD

Love the neckline on this one. It’s a thinner material that can be dressed up or down so could work for all seasons. I wore this 6 months pregnant and loved how bump friendly it is. I’m 5’4 and it was definitely on the shorter side

Fun twist on the LBD, but short

This fits TTS - I'm between a 4 and a 6 and the 42 fit perfectly. It's short - I'm only 5'4 and I definitely needed boy shorts to feel comfortable. This means it wasn't that appropriate for a more formal workplace. I would rent this again when it's colder and wear it with tights. I think I would feel more comfortable with the length at work with tights.

Overall Fit

Just right

Length

Too short

fun dress!

This is a fun black dress I wore to a french themed cocktail party. It is fitted but the material is stiffer, so it didn’t hug too tight.

LOVE

Love this dress SO much!! Even though the size I got was just a little too small, I still wore it multiple times and got so many compliments. Will most likely rent again to try the size up and consider buying! It’s an all year round staple.

6 months pregnant and love it!

Love this dress pregnant! I am 6 months and it shows off the bump in the most tasteful way (and I do not love wearing tight things while pregnant). Will be wearing this to lots of occasions while renting!

So cute but does ride up when you walk.

The length and fit were great, but it rides up when you move! I didn't mind it but would not buy for that reason. If it didn't, it would be so versatile to so many different events.

Too short, couldn’t wear

Wouldn’t have been able to sit down in this one and the boat neck hem was unflattering
