Comfortable, stretchy, but enough elasticity to keep it all in. I would recommend Nu Bra for a little lift since there is no way you could wear a regular bra. I wore this in Vegas for a bachelorette party and was comfortable all night.

Chic and Sexy Little Black Dress
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I NEVER GOT A GOOD PHOTO! With all the celebrating on my birthday, I was the only one without a camera. Unfortunately I never got a photo with a full body shot....but let me tell you, it hits all the curves in the right places. I felt sexy but at the same time chic and elegant. It's form fitting, but the fabric is thick so it never feels cheap or like you might be showing too much. The dress fit true to size, and with it's stretch I felt very comfortable in a small. I plan on renting this dress again for another special occasion.

This was my first ever RTR experience and it was AMAZING. Since then, I think I've rented 15 dresses because this one was so perfect. I wore this Herve on my 31st Birthday to a nightclub in Miami. It fit absolutely perfectly and was a HIT with my husband, friends and family. If you want to feel HOT, then you MUST rent this dress!

Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Vacation
I rented this for a 30th birthday trip to Vegas. I looked H-O-T! It was like magic. Somehow I had boobs, hips and a butt - things I normally do not possess! I got the small and the XS. The XS would not even zip up. The small was the perfect size. It looked great from the front and the back. I wore my hair up to show off the back. I didn't wear a bra and was fine (but I have a small chest). I wish I could have kept this dress.

The dress is low cut but shows off a lithe figure like never before. Only con was my bra that I should have swapped for another so that it didn't show. It did not ride up, and it was not loose ion the back. Wish I had a full length pic to show-after all the fun I had, we forgot to take full pictures!

Definitely a form fitting dress, but as long as you order the right size, it covers minor flaws. Very low cut--definitely wear a Nu bra. Despite being a low cut, the dress stays in place very well--I was never worried about any "wardrobe malfunctions".

This dress was sp super flattering. Its like wearing spanx as a dress. It fits snug and accentuates all the best curves while minimizing the rest. I loved it and was bummed that I had to send it back and couldnt keep it in my closet forever. I got the small and medium. They both fit because the material is so stretchy but i liked the small better because it fell a little shorter.

Overall fit: True to Size

This dress was absolutely wonderful for my birthday!! I felt so sexy with the plunging neckline. It definitely hugged and sucked in at the right places. I felt comfortable in the dress because of my small chest, but for anyone with a large cup size, I would be careful! Still, I would recommend this for any party you're attending!!

The Dress is cute a little big, I'm usually a size 2 or 3 in dresses, but the xSmall was perfect. I'm also a 32DD but the plunge was just enough. I can only say great things about this dress, and from the compliments I received that night, it looked great as well. It does bunch up a little at the stomach when you sit, but it doesn't effect the dress much once you're standing.

This dress was HOT HOT HOT! Wore this for a wedding after-party and got SOO many compliments. It is low cut in front which worked well for me as I have a smaller bust but more gifted ladies take note. When you zip it up its like zipping away all your little flaws. My boyfriend and everyone else just died over how gorgeous it looked.

Stunning Dress!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
This dress not only oozes elegance, but it is comfortable to wear too! I was not prepared for how heavy the dress is, but it slides on easily and the meshy, stretchy fabric instantly expands and shrinks to fit anyone’s figure. I wore the high rise spanx that slim the waist, hips and upper thighs. I was a bit concerned that when I sat down, the dress would slide up and expose the spanx. But….it didn’t. In fact the dress wore wonderfully. No hiking, slipping, shifting, bagging, binding….nothing. Unbelievable. Oh, and you don’t need a bra with this dress – trust me! The only negative I have is that when I received it, I noticed that there was an area that was coming unstitched from a side seam. I considered fixing it, but decided that it wasn’t that noticeable. One last thought – I think I could have gone with the small as this dress has A LOT of stretch. With the spanx holding me in, I think it would have fit nicely. Next time….

This dress was great for a bachelorette party. I got the XS and it fit fine, it was a little snug, but I like that it held everything together and makes you look skinner! The material was a little stiff and rough, but it really didn't bother me at all.

Million Dollar Dress!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Date
This is my first ever rental from Rent the Runway. I have always been a little bit skeptical of online shopping but when I received a coupon for a free dress rental, I obviously jumped at it. And boy did RTR make me a believer! First of all, the dress was packaged in a beautiful big box and it was inside a plastic garment bag with some goodies hung on the hanger as well. They really know how to treat a customer right. The dress came exactly when it was suppose to and was ironed and ready to wear. I tried it on and it perfectly hugged every part of my body. Even though I am small chested, this dress was so form-fitting that it helped boost up areas that most dresses would leave rather flat. The material is quite heavy and does feel luxurious, which makes me feel that this dress would have been PERFECT for the winter. I also ended up using the fashion tape to hem up the bottom of the dress because I am 5 feet and the dress was a little long on me. Nevertheless, I was caught by surprise. THANK YOU RTR for allowing me to wear a Herve Leger dress without breaking my bank...I will definitely be renting in the near future.

This dress is phenomenal!!! If you are afraid of attention from both men and women, then this is not the dress for you. It fits true to size. Im a 10-12 pants size and my hips are 42" so I was a little worried. But it fit great! I also did not wear a bra. The fitting of the dress's material held everything in.

I rented this dress for a Vegas trip and it was awesome! It's a gorgeous dress that is definitely an attention grabber. I am usually a small in almost everything I wear but I ordered and extra small and it fit perfect, a small would have been too big. I am a B cup and the deep v was perfect for my size, too much bigger and you would be hanging out of it. I definitely recommend this dress for you next big night out!!

This dress was great! I wore it to our grad school "prom" and it was definitely an attention-grabber, especially from the guys. I wore it with a NuBra, because I wanted to have a little bit more in the chest department. The only issues I found were that the dress had been worn a lot (I noticed this, but no one else would have) and it's not a miracle-worker. The sucking-you-in of a bandage dress can only do so much. Overall, I felt beautiful and enjoyed myself! PS My friend (in purple) was able to wear my Herve Leger back up dress!

If you are debating renting this dress, just stop and get it! I have never been one to show off cleavage or wear tight dresses, but after reading the reviews, I took the plunge and I am glad I did. This dress is AMAZING. It just pulls your body in to amazing shape, you don't need any spanx under for help, the dress does all of the work on it's own. I wish I could have kept this dress! I got the S as my rental, but got an XS as my back up and wore the XS, as the S was a little too big/loose in the chest area for me. (not sure i that is just the way it is made, or if it was stretched from previous use.) The XS was a little more tight than the S in the body, but it didn't feel too small, it felt like that's the way this designer is supposed to fit. I danced in this dress for a good 2 hours straight and it never felt uncomfortable nor did it ever ride up any. Again, debating this dress? Just stop and rent it! You will not regret it.
