Has anyone used girl meets dress?

Hi I have a work black tie event next month and need a new dress as anything in my wardrobe will sadly be at least one size too small as will be from pre DC.
Given that I very very rarely wear a full length evening dress these days and I hope to lose the excess weight I am thinking of hiring something on the grounds that I can get a dress that I wouldnt be able to justify buying for one wear.
Has anyone used them and would you recommend them? - Specifically I guess want to be sure the dresses are in good condition!
Had a quick look on their website and there are a few that could be lovely.

I have. They were punctual and helpful. The dress arrived in a box and was creased, which was not great as I was short on time. Ultimately I sent it back and wore something else, wouldn't put me off using them again though.

Thanks for reply - what was dress quality like ?
I think I live close enough I. Oils maybe go and try on and then collect it to avoid the creasing issue - that is not good !

I was going to use girl meets dress for an event that recently happened.

But, I hedged my bets that the other attendees of the event that was being touted as a 'ball' would mostly be attended by the over 35 crowd and glamor was going to be dictated by statement heels and clutches. I was right. I wore a LBD and accessorized with some stately jewelry.

Apologies, late reply! Dress quality was perfect, and as described. Just creased! Was worried about ironing it for obvious reasons.

Thanks both. This do will definitely be full on long dresses etc.
Might start another thread to see what other ideas people have. If it weren't for my weight I would be much more open to buying something.
