All eyes will be on you in this Herve Leger stunner. The neckline begs for a great statement necklace, like the Badgley Mischka's Decadent Deco Necklace and tall black heels will complete the look. Everyone will realize that gold isn't the only thing that glitters once you top off this expensive ensemble with Lancome's Juicy Tubes Lipgloss in Miracle.

Perfect dress for my senior year formal in college!

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

Fit wonderfully! It can be a little tight in the chest, but a nice strapless bra can help make you look less flat. This is a little different for a Herve, which is what I liked about it. Great for curvier women, as it helps create an hourglass shape. Overall, loved the dress!

I was complimented by a swimsuit model in this dress!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Party

This dress runs VERY small! I managed to squeeze myself in the dress, but it took some effort! However, once it was on, it looked AMAZING and I felt like a model! My husband and I were going to the launch of the SI Swimsuit Issue party and one of the models complimented my look! If that doesn't say this dress was hot, I don't know what else does?!

Great dress, little big

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

My worry about this designer is that when the dress has been worn a lot it can get a little stretched out, so I ordered both the S and the M (months in advance because I have been dying to wear this dress). I got call a few days before the event and they informed me that the S was no longer available because who ever wore it before me ruined it beyond repair (blast!). So I only got the M and was able to order another dress (they take good care of you at least!). I figured the M will just be fine. The fit was good everywhere except the top. I have some pretty big boobs (34DD/36D) and I had a hard time holding the top up. I think it may be time to retire this dress RTR! Also the color is not as gold as I expected it to be. It was almost a milk chocolate with gold threading....

The sizing for this is a little weird, but overall a really fun dress.

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

I wore this to a wedding in Vegas and it was the perfect dress for the occassion! It was REALLY small in the chest and does not really stretch which made it a little difficult. It was then a little loose in the waist and hip area, but was short. It was fun to wear but I always thought that Herve Leger dresses were super form fitting and sucked you in. This didn't do that for me.

I had to keep holding the dress up. I didn't use any tape or anything else so I'm not sure if that would have helped. I loved it though. I wore it for my senior homecoming dance.

Really stunning dress. Agree with others that the dress had a bit more room in the hips than the typical Herve, but that worked well for me. It was form-fitting, but not too tight. Beautiful!

Beautiful dress!!!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Date

I wore this dress out while on vacation in Miami and let me tell you my boyfriend couldn't keep his eyes off of me! I loved the way I looked in it, although XS was a little roomy for me. Usually I wear either Small or XS but the way this dress is made ( little wide on the bottom) I guess XXS would of been better for me. Regardless I felt beautiful and stunning and got a lot of complements not only from my boyfriend but from total strangers as well.

Thanks RTR! Had so many compliments on this dress!

Rented for: Formal Affair

I absolutely love this dress!! They didn't have a small left so had to go with the xs. They said it ran big so thought it would be a little looser but it was actually a little small but it still fit great and looked amazing on! Material is thick and heavy and you can tell it is an expensive dress!! It worked out great!!!

Very sophisticated look. Got tons of compliments.

Not my first choice, but the dress ended up working out well. Last minute availabilities made accesssories previously purchased and ready inappropriate. Last minute scramble worked out. Very tight on top, fit great below the waist. Fabric is very rich looking and heavy. Would rent this dress again. Overall experence with RTR requires flexibility but the customer service was great through the whole process.

Perfect fit.

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

The bust area of the dress is very form-fitting, making it perfect for women with small chests. Luckily, it worked for me! The dress goes out a bit at the waist, which made it super flattering for me. The dress was shorter than I expected, especially in comparison to other Herve Leger dresses. Overall and awesome dress, I received a ton of compliments!

My husband told me I looked so incredibly sexy, and he was excited to show me off around town. Perfect dress for a birthday weekend in Vegas!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Vacation

Like many girls, I've wanted to wear an Herve Leger and thought my upcoming birthday weekend in Vegas would be the perfect debut. I, however, did not feel entirely comfortable wearing the classic bandage dress without toning up my mid-section. Because of that, I loved how this dress didn't exactly hug your every curve and was surprised at how comfortable it was. I felt pretty fabulous in it. A few notes to the fellow busty ladies out there: I typically wear an XS but because of my bust size, was worried it wouldn't fit (and of course the S was unavailable). I laid my faith in RTR reviews, and the dress did zip over my lovely lady lumps. Now because it didn't quite fit right at the bust, the material constantly bunched at the ribcage. It wasn't terrible, but just slightly high-maintenance since I had to tug at the dress to pull it down after walking for awhile or sitting. Overall, this was sexy, little dress and a great entry into the world of Herve Leger. Now to work on those crunches so I can wear more HL...

I absolutely loved this dress! I wore it for my bachelorette party and it was perfect. The material is very thick and spanx are not necessary. The the hip area was a little big but it was more comfortable. I would say the color is a little darker than the picture shows but it's a gorgeous standout dress. I received many compliments and would rent this again in a heartbeat.

I wore this dress to a wedding. It was such a beautiful dress in person. The dress glimmered just right in the light. I felt sexy and beautiful because it fit like a glove, and I received many compliments on the dress. I wore the xtra small because it fit my waist and hips even though the top was a tad bit too snug. I made it work though. The hips were actually even a little roomy for the extra small, but no one could tell.

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

This was not the best fitting Herve I've rented. It's a bit snug on top (and I rarely have that problem) and too loose at the skirt. Although I didn't mind the skirt fit, I felt like it did not hug me the way other Herve's do... felt a bit uncomfortable all night. But, still looked pretty amazing... :)

I loved all the extra goodies and personal phone call I received with my rental. Impressive!!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I wore this to Mynt Lounge in South Beach, Miami and made all the guys stare! The dress looked like it was painted on (very fitted on top, sits up high and flattens you out, but hey thats the design, more roomy from the waist down). And altho I saw many Herve Leger dresses that night, this one stood out;) I thought it would be more of a gold color but it matched my animal print clutch perfectly so I was content:) Will def rent again. Thank God, Jen & Jenny for RTR!!!

Was so down about this dress. Stunning on the hanger but the cut is weird.

Size worn: L

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

This dress is so pretty on the hanger, the shimmer is awesome but the cut is terrible. I am small on top but it was very tight through my rib cage and huge at my hips (almost like a full skirt), which is odd given that dresses usually fit me the opposite way (huge on top tight on bottom).

The dress was beautiful, if only the top part fit!

Size worn: S

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

The dress really looked pretty but when I tried it on the top didn't fit well at all. The top part wouldn't stay up. I am a 34 C so I didn't think there would be a problem with the fit. It was pretty disappointing. The rest of the dress was a little large but would have been okay if the top fit. I ended up going with a back up dress.

Material is fairly thick and heavy, but it gave the dress a nice structure. Fits more snugly up top than in the hips, so it's easy to move/dance in. Also, it's a perfect length for shorter girls (mid thigh). It's a subdued gold color, so it's not too flashy. Loved this dress!

This dress hit me funny in both the M and L sizes. I am 5 foot 5 inches tall and weigh about 155lbs. I have an hourglass shape, this dress was not flattering for my shape. Flattened my chest and bloused funny at the skirt. Too bad this did not fit at all, I was very much looking forward to wearing this dress.

My favorite dress I've ever worn.

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This was my first rent the runway experience. I had high hopes for this dress after stalking it for several months. It definitely lived up to my expectations. Its a beautiful gold color that doesn't overdo sparkle. It accentuates curves and cinches in at your waist. It is also a little roomier in the hips compared to other Herve Leger dresses, which I liked. It was a little tight on my waist and slightly shorter than I expected but it was still comfortable. I felt great in this dress and I'd definitely recommend it to others.

I felt really glamorous and got complimented throughout the night.

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

I loved this dress, and fantasized about wearing it for months before my event. The material is wonderful-it's very heavy! I assumed since it was a bandage dress it would run small, so I ordered the medium. When I got the dress, I knew before I even put it on that it was going to be huge on me. I was so upset, I had to go to my fairy godmother seamstress and have her do a temporary alteration so it wouldn't fall off me, and I ran to Nordstrom to buy a bra with a ton of padding to make it look less large on top. Be careful which size you buy! I am 5'7" wear size 27 jeans and usually wear a size 2 or 4 in dresses, and this dress was WAY too big on me.

This was a stunning dress, unfortunately could not wear it because it was a bit too tight on the bust. It flattens you out, and is not very comfortabel. The bottom part is a lot more comfortable, but the material iis a bit stiff. It buckles up in the back.

Unfortuantely... not what I expected

Size worn: S

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

I was obssed with this dress from the picture , I had reserved it almost 2 months in advanced.... however, when I tried it on- I realized it was too short for the wedding I was going to. The color of the dress is actually more of a taupe (did not look gold ) but it did fit my hips very well (this is a great dress if you have an hourglass figure). You can defintiely wear it for a Girls Night out, bachelorette party...just not a formal wedding (atleast thats my opinion). The dress also runs large- I thought I would fit in the medium but the small was best

Wrong Size, Great Dress

Size worn: M

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Party

I rented the dress for a back-to-school party. I usually wear a small but RTR didn't have my size for the weekend so I opted for a medium hoping that I could fill it out. Well, I was wrong. I feel like even if I rented a small, it would be large as well. The chest area was larger than usual. It just kind of drooped away from my chest. But if I had gotten the right size, the dress would have been amazing. The fabric is very thick and amazing material.
