Perfect winery dress!

Very lightweight, layered a leather jacket, perfect for a day of wine tasting. If you have a larger chest it does pull a little funny, but I made it work

Beautiful, stylish, and flattering

This dress is super flattering. I liked it so much I bought it. Beware: This dress has a cutout on the side that shows skin, so if you are wearing it to work, I highly recommend a form-fitting camisole underneath because the cutout reaches your ribs.

Lovely lightweight long sleeve dress!

It was bias cut, so there is some give in the dress. The lightweight material and waist cutout make it ideal for outdoors in warmer weather if you have something a little more conservative to attend. I wore it to an outdoor Shakespeare performance.

cut out cutie

super light weight, cotton material with a fun cut out/ bungee at the hip that gives off a nice hourglass shape. loved the length and sleeve. very comfy and eye catching pattern. 10/10 would rent again.

Luck of the draw

Selected this dress on a whim, and it ended up being one of my favorite pieces! Great for an any day wear! Added an oversized black denim cropped jacket (also Rails, not rented) since I wore this to church. The one sided open waist view adds a simple sexy modest, when appropriate. Worth considering for purchase 🍀

Curves all the right places

Great fit! I’m 5’2, 135, 34D. It’s super light weight falls so perfectly along your body. The little keyhole is kinda weird and not necessary but not entirely noticeable. The colors are bright and cheery. Will probably wear with nude flats and/black sandals. I thinks it’s a good day to night dress.

Flattering and beautiful print

Fit was perfect and comfortable. Wore on a winter day when it wasn’t too cold as little keyhole around the waist. Got lots of compliments and loved the color.

Beautiful Print, Elegant!

I wore this dress on vacation. The print is absolutely stunning! As another reviewer mentioned, the shoulders have a square look to them which is a bit 1980s looking. I love the vintage look, so it didn’t bother me but it might not be for everyone. The cutout was a bit large for how petite I am, but it didn’t bother me. I received a ton of compliments on this dress and would rent again.

Perfect fit, would rent again

This dress fit perfectly, wasn’t too snug around the arm pits or hip area. I’m 5’4” and 135lbs, the sleeves hit just at the wrist bone, which was perfect for me. Great unrestricted movement. Looks amazing as well, very flattering fit!

Very pretty, form fitting

This probably would look great on those longer waisted than I, it fit a little weird around my belly but I added a belt and tried to make it work. Great dress otherwise, super pretty pattern

Little awkward with the side opening

But really cute, fun pattern. I love the shoulders and the back. I still bought it and have worn it several times.

A “No” Due to the Awkward Cut Out

Beautiful material and I made it work with the Jacket. I missed that the dress has a cut out, a style which hardly ever works for my short self. All of my undergarments peeked through, and the dress bunched up in strange places. However, tall goddesses will look fabulous!

Peek-a-boo fun

Got so many compliments on this refreshingly cool dress. The peek-a-boo cut out on the side was just the right amount of interesting without overpowering the fun silhouette or pretty print. Paired with oversized jean jacket and clogs.

Sexy and comfy

Boyfriends called the cutout sexy. Wore it to sushi and a movie. Casual or dressy depending on how you style it. Fit my short torso and pear shape perfectly. Love this brand!! Dry clean only so returned and renting again right away.

Cutout

I rented this for a work event and didn't realize it had a cutout on the side. I wore a cami underneath and got tons of compliments. I would rent again for a non-work event so I could "use" the cutout. Great fit

So cute and comfortable

I love this dress so much. I usually wear a small but went with medium because that was listed as 4-6 and it was perfect. So it probably runs a little small. It’s so cute and very comfy.
