Nice quality
Nice cashmere and cute design but fits quite small / short. I have a longer torso and this was tough to wear without showing midriff.

Beautiful jacket. Got several compliments on it the first day I wore it. Fits TTS or slightly large. I ended up purchasing it in a size down from what I had rented.

Great for maternity
I wore this for a dinner date with my husband at 37 weeks pregnant and felt amazing in it. I sized up to an XL from my typical M or L and it was form fitting but flattering. Looking forward to renting again for an event post pregnancy.

Beautiful for maternity
I wore this for my baby sprinkle at 37 weeks and it was perfect. The fabric is super stretchy but thick enough to be forgiving. I sized up and while it was definitely form fitting, it was still very flattering.

Just OK
Fits on the small side, but TTS for this particular brand. Quality fabric, but nothing special overall. The color also didn't do much for my complexion. Overall a fine everyday dress that works well into 3rd trimester, but probably would not rent again.

Tight in the rig cage
Didn’t wear because my usual size 2 was too tight in the rib cage and chest at 25 weeks. Light try the next size up when available because it looked cute otherwise.

Amazing for summer
Very light weight fabric but not see through, perfect for hot East Coast summer. Stretchy enough to wear with a 27 week bump (and probably beyond). Considered purchasing but the colors were a little outside my normal comfort zone. Super cute for vacation though - I wore it several times.

Loved this so much I bought it. Very stretchy fabric that fit great over a baby bump but will also work great after. Lightweight but not flimsy. Felt very stylish. Wore it several times.

Very short in the torso
I’m 5’7” with a long-ish torso and currently 26 weeks pregnant and this was laughably short in the torso. I could get it on, but barely, and it was un-wearable. I was bummed because the fabric felt high quality and the style seems cute.

Cute maternity option
Comfortable and great for baby bump. Could've stuck with my pre-pregnancy size (M) because it's quite stretchy. Fabric was a bit thick and sleeves a bit long, but I enjoyed wearing it.

Elegant and comfortable
This print is way outside my normal comfort zone, but I thought it would be a fun non-maternity maternity option. It definitely delivered. I sized up 2 sizes from my pre pregnancy size to an XL but could've gotten away with the L because it's quite stretchy. Very lightweight fabric and super comfortable. Would definitely rent again. Wore at 22 weeks pregnant.

Very stretchy and comfortable. Wore at 21-22 weeks pregnant and could definitely accommodate a bigger bump. Lots of compliments.

Gorgeous
I wore this 22 weeks pregnant (with my 2nd so bump is already bigger than it was the first time around) and loved it. Probably couldn't have fit the bump a month from now though. If I wasn't pregnant, I might have found it too tent like, but with a bump it was perfect. Felt so chic and elegant. I sized up 1 from my pre pregnancy size.

Amazing
I love IRO blazers, and this one was no exception. I find that they generally fit on the small side, especially for those with a bigger chest. But they are beautifully made and can be worn with so many different outfits. I loved this one so much that I bought it. I feel you can wear this blazer almost year-round as the fabric is substantial but not too heavy. I wore it with dress pants, jeans, and even over a dress, and always got compliments.

Just OK
This sweater was just OK -- not bad but not great. The fit was a bit awkward, especially with a larger chest. I would have preferred the zipper to go down a bit further. The sleeves also get bigger towards the end, which I did not care for. Would not rent again.

Nice blazer
I love the Rails Jac blazer. I own it in 3 colors have have rented several others. It's a great, boyfriend style blazer. I think it fits true to size, especially considering it is meant to be a bit more oversized and less tailored. The colors of this particular one were not my favorite - the green didn't work as well with complexion. But still a solid rental.

Tight in bust
This was a cute top, but I did not end up wearing it as it was a bit too tight in the bust for me. Based on other reviews with similar measurements (36D) I thought the M would have been OK, but it was just a bit too snug to look good. An L would likely have fit better in the bust, but maybe been too big / flowy around the middle. I think this top is probably more flattering for someone with a smaller chest. The quality felt nice and I liked the unusual neckline.

Stunning!
I ordered this to go with a Nicole Miller dress I was planning on wearing to a wedding, and ended up loving the necklace so much I wore it on another evening with a different outfit. It is truly gorgeous. If it weren't so pricey, I would absolutely buy it. I will be renting this again!

Great dress for wedding
I love Nicole Miller and own several of her dresses, and this one did not disappoint! I normally wear a 6 in Nicole Miller and this was true to size. The top is definitely roomy due to the open back (and I am a C-cup). I would recommend sizing down for smaller chested women, or at least planning to wear a stick-on bra of some sort for support. The color of the dress is great - a bit darker than in the photo. Would work well just about any time of year. I dressed it up with a big, sparkly Kenneth Jay Lane necklace and got lots of compliments. Gorgeous dress!

Cute party dress
I absolutely love the color of this dress - it is much better in person than online. I wore this for my 27th birthday party and got a ton of compliments. The dress does run small, especially if you have curves. I typically wear a 4 or a 6 in dresses depending on the cut, and normally my issues is with dresses being too tight on top (I am a 36C). I got both the S and M in this dress. The Small fit perfectly on top, but was a tad too tight around my hips. The Medium was a little loose on top and through my stomach, but fit well around my hips. If you are the "straight and narrow" type this dress would definitely work well. Girls with curves may want to order two sizes just to be safe.

Beautiful dress
I wore this to a friend's engagement party and received a lot of compliments. The dress is very romantic and flowy, and very flattering. I typically wear a 4 or 6 depending on the cut of the dress, and the M fit well. I think I could have gone with a Small too, given the flowy-ness of the dress, but with this type of silhouette I think it's best to err on the side of slightly large than too tight. I will say that fashion tape and/or safety pins are a must to keep the front of the dress in place.

Disappointing
I was very excited to get these tights because of the promising waistband design. I purchased them to wear to a wedding with the silver one-shoulder Shoshanna dress also from RTR. As I was putting on the tights, one snagged on my fingernail (not a jagged edge, just a regular nail) and ripped a huge run into the leg. I have had better experiences with $5 tights than these. Definitely not worth the price, in my opinion.

Very cute and very versatile!
I wore this to a friend's daytime engagement party, and then also wore it to work the following day! (Hey, a girl's gotta get the most out of her investment, right?). The dress is very cute and flattering. It does run a tad small overall, but definitely true to size for Milly (I typically wear a size 4 but always need a 6 in Milly). I wrote it with a thick gold necklace, nude heels and a blue clutch, and got a lot of compliments.

Great dress for weddings!
I wore this to a wedding last fall and really loved the style. It does run a tad small overall, but true to size for Shoshanna. The silver color is beautiful and is very weather versatile. I wore this with sheer pantyhose, but it would also have looked great with sheer black tights or even bare legs. The fabric makes it more of a fall/winter dress, in my opinion, but under the right circumstances I think it could be worn in the spring or summer as well.

This dress is very sexy and hugs your curves. Bigger chested women might consider sizing up. I am usually a 4 and had to wear a 6 in this dress. However, the stretchy fabric keeps the rest of the dress form-fitting while allowing more room up top. I wore this with Dannijo's Finley Earrings for New Year's Eve and got lots of compliments!
