Felt great!

Loved the way this dress made me feel! Lighter fabric - felt like a slip dress - but classy enough for a wedding. Will rent again

Conservative with fun twists

Loved that this had a classic silhouette with less corporate details like a fruit print and a girly sleeve. Light and comfy!

Easy breezy

Good dress for hot, humid summer days. Length was perfect for me at 5’2 and thankfully not that slip dress type where you can see your belly button

Gorgeous but long

Fit just slips over the body - very feminine and pretty. Pattern is subtle but fun. I’m 5’8” and it was long on me. Does nice things for the waist without accentuating a pooch.

Fine - lacks shape

Love the silk. The print is actually a ditsy fruit print. I thought it was a floral but a fun surprise for me. I love the fit at the top but because the waist was so loose it looks really maternity rather than cute vintage. I managed to wear by safety pinning carefully on the inside to make it smaller but I wouldn't re rent. Not flattering enough for me. Very comfy tho. If you like a looser skimming fit then I'd recommend.

Nice casual maxi

Hugs the torso. If you have a belly, it does not hide it. I used a spanx product with it. Very lightweight, so good for evening event in warm climate.

Just Okay

This dress didn't have the oomph I was hoping for. It was also very clingy in the hips. Will probably not rent again.

Average

Pretty snug in the belly and the zipper down the side would bunch up A TON when you sat down which looked really weird. It was nice though at the top with the flowy sleeves

A must rent

So so flattering! Can be worn dressed up or down. The foot pattern is subtle enough that people only notice when they're really staring. I wore this 10+ times and received compliments every time. For summer weather, it kept me very cool because of the silky texture. In the cooler months, it is thin enough for layering with tall boots. A perfect dress!

Loved this!

This dress is so cute, comfortable and lightweight. I wore it on a beach vacation so it was perfect, but beware that the pattern is actually bananas and other fruits, so it might not work in other settings. I'd definitely rent again for a vacation!

So nice I rented it twice

Rented a 6 both times because the 2 and 4 were not available, but definitely fits true to size! I like things a little looser and it is so comfy and flattering. Almost too long for short girls but with heels it is perfect. Will probably rent again in the future

Adorable and comfy!

I thought this dress would either be “acceptable hot weather option” or I would hate it. But actually, I love it!! Wonderfully comfy lightweight silk, pattern that is subtle enough to be worn professionally, and an incredible fit that skims the body nicely.

love the material

it's silky and so comfortable. I was not able to wear it though because I have a large rig cage. I wear size 12 and other than that issue it fit perfectly. I think a 14 would have been too large though. would be a perfect travel dress as it takes up NO space.
