Was a fabulous dress to dance the night away in! Styled with pearls, polka dot tights and did an updo to really showcase the neckline. 

I loved this dress so much I had to do a photo shoot in it too. Such a glam sleeve. It was a hit!

wore this for my semi formal. it was tight but not uncomfortable, short but not inappropriate, and fun without being over the top. i loved the ruffled shoulder, and it matched the evening's vibe perfectly. cannot recommend it enough!!

fits snug to your body. the material and structure is great for someone who likes to hide their midsection. 

This is the most amazing dress ever. I'm in between a M and a S and went with the Medium. Though a small would of been better. There is zero stretch in this and it's lined with almost a fleece like material so perfect for April. I got soooo many compliments on this. Would 100 percent recommend 

PERFECT Party Dress!! I wore this dress to a rehearsal dinner and it was a HIT!! All the reviews and pics were so helpful when deciding which dress to choose. This dress is fun, flirty, bold and most of all comfortable. I paired this with some sparkly shoes to add an extra touch of glam!! Would ABSOLUTELY Rent Again!! 



Super flattering black dress. A cool material that has a little sheen to it. A tad on the short side. But perfect for a night out!!!

I rented a small because xs wasn't available and it was too big! Luckily XS became available just in time for the event.  Loved this dress! It was flattering and fit perfectly.  Some people reviewed that this was difficult/revealing to sit in but I didn't have any issues at all.

This dress is exciting! Gorgeous shoulders, ribbed bust area for just enough cinch but warning, it is SHORT! 

This was a favorite of mine and I cannot wait to rent it again! I got so many compliments. It was giving Princess Diana vibes. Keep in mind, there is zero stretch and I had to play around with the shoulders when I first put it on, but still a 10/10

Let me start by saying that for all of those who said it’s short, are absolutely correct. Although for this 5’2 gal with a 26” inseam (longer torso than legs) it was a dream. 

Wore this for a West Texas wedding at the end of summer and while the material is thick, it was still comfortable in warm weather. Also a plus that it doesn’t wrinkle, and even after being in a suitcase and airplane, it never needed to be steamed beforehand. The top can be worn asymmetrical on either shoulder which is nice. 

This is definitely for petites though, as anyone much taller might be giving a peep show with the front slit, but I didn’t have any issues with it. I also found it to be a little roomy and could have sized down for a very fitted feel. 

For reference, I typically wear a 24 in pants, and XS in tops and have a very athletic build (wide rib cage, thicker bottom and thighs). 

Got so many compliments on this dress and would absolutely rent again in a heartbeat.

Tons of compliments on this statement little black dress. A little short but perfect for my 5’3” frame 

Felt so good in this dress. Neckline is gorgeous with the ruffles, but it is short! Hard to sit in comfortably but worth it 

I loved this little black dress. It was super cute. It runs small so def up size at-least one size up. It very fitting but very complimentary!  

Fun. Sleeves are dramatic but I loved it. Could’ve worn the L as well. Will rent again for fitting event.

Fit like a glove, snatched the waist, and got compliments all night!

Got tons of compliments! Great for a semi formal event. 

This dress is a timeless classic & incredibly forgiving in the waist & bust. Definitely super short but the top provides so much drama ;) RENT IT!

Got a millions compliments on this dress, and felt amazing in it all night! 

Great NYE dress with the right amount of drama. Runs a little short at the slit the front so chose to wear tights which was great. While the running was a little uncomfortable, it made sure my posture was correct 😜
Will definitely rent again. 

Loved this dress! Ordered a small and medium and the small was perfect. So comfy and cute!

A comfortable and flattering material. Short is the front but longer in the back, very classy cut. I am in-between a XS and a small, the small was the perfect option. 

It's TTS, but is on the tighter side. Super flattering though and got lots of compliments when I wore it

It’s beautiful.Parachute material so came a little wrinkly.Shows thighs &you need someone to zip for you. True to size and a lot of material on top of your shoulders so may need short hair or wear hair back! Love this dress!!! Black is always a great option!!!! I’m 5’5” and muscular. 122 lbs. usually wear 0 or 2.

This was such a fun dress to wear! It's flattering, formfitting in all the right places, the top stays in place and looks very pretty across the shoulders. And the length is super sexy! My husband really enjoyed walking around Vegas with me wearing this. I got tons of compliments from total strangers! Fantastic dress!!

This dress was so much fun to wear. It fit really well, was pretty forgiving, and got lots of love throughout the night. Would definitely rent this again. 

Gorgeous dress that is quite forgiving. Even though the boning on the chest was made for a significantly larger size than I am, the ruffle hides any size mismatch and doesn't gape, and I wore it without a bra which I pretty much never do. It is very short but doesn't ride up and there's a lining that keeps you relatively warm. And it's slightly swishy material that doesn't wrinkle (so stuffing it in your suitcase for Vegas? No problem!) Prepare to receive lots of compliments!

I rented this for a formal Christmas party, the dress was beautiful! I got compliments the entire night. Even though it was short it looked very formal. I did have to have a napkin over my lap when sitting down just because the slit shows everything when sitting. I wish I would have rented a large, but it wasn't available. It fit great, I would have just liked it a little more snug for support. 

This dress was structured in the most perfect way. The fabric is hefty and the way it was sewn gives you room to eat dinner in the waist and the slight offset in the hem makes your legs look so long without looking slutty. The ruffles were a nice structural touch and stayed put and I had no trouble dancing. I've never been told this many times how beautiful I looked. I'd wear it again in a heartbeat

I felt so great in this dress! Plus I received endless compliments all night. I am short and this was pretty short where the slit is in the front. The body has rouching and wiring throughout so I felt very secure. Absolutely loved it! 

I rented this pre-pandemic so admittedly can't remember if it ran TTS, but I think it did. I remember trying the XS and it wouldn't zip, and they didn't have the S available. Wore it to a wedding in NOLA and it was great! Short, but not too short for me

This dress is incredibly flattering and eye catching! I wish I could have kept it. 

The dress runs a little small so after reading reviews I sized up. The medium fit great and everyone loved the dress! Super comfortable and was perfect for a formal wedding. Definitely recommend!

Wore this to a wedding and got a lot of compliments. I ordered an XS because that was all they had but I would have been a lot more comfortable in a small. Def shorter in the front than the back but I am pretty tall and generally don't care about dress length- it covered everything it was supposed to!

This was just ok, didn’t do much for me. It fit true to size, but I didn’t think it was anything special. Kind of short in the front, but fully covers in the back.

I rented this dress for my engagement photoshoot. It was really cute and I got a lot of compliments on it, but my word, it was short. Much shorter and tighter than I anticipated. I couldn't bend over pretty much at all. I usually wear a medium, which I had, but I got the size up too just in case. Thank the lord I did because I couldn't even get the medium up my hips. The pictures turned out lovely though! 

Got a small and a medium and I went with the M.   I’m 5’7 135 and have an athletic build.
