It was a lot darker then the product image portrays. It also is very long. I am 5'11'' and it was a few inches above my knees. The dress really gives you an hour glass figure with the smaller bandages above the hips and larger ones below. Great dress overall.

This dress made me feel classy and sexy at the same time!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
Ths dress was a big hit at the wedding I attended! I was a bit nervous because a medium was not available the weekend I needed it, so I was worried that the small would not fit. However, the small looked fabulous and showed off all of my curves! It was tight and because I have a short torso, it bunched up a little under my chest. But overall this dress was awesome when paired with accessories and I received a lot of compliments!

Beautifil, flattering, & unique!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, the ombre color scheme of this dress. I was nervous about this being "too sexy" for a wedding bc Herve is known to be a bit scandalous, but the longer length and thick straps made it very appropriate, but still a "stand out" dress. Very glad I got the small for this though, the XS was literally half the size of the S, so if you have any sort of curves, I recommend the small or sizing up. But I loved wearing this!

This dress made me feel like a million bucks!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this dress to my SIL to Be's Bachelorette Party in Vegas. Having never rented a dress before, I was worried about how it would turn out. The dress(es) arrived as scheduled at our hotel (mind you Hard Rock charged me $12 processing grrr...) I first tried on the medium because the small looked SO small. However, the medium was way too big. The straps were very stretched out. I then put the small on and once it was zipped (w/some help,) it fit like a SKiN tIGHT GlovE, but my god it was georgous! Since we were in Vegas I did what every good girl would do, I pushed my boobs up for max cleavage and rolled the hem up about 8 inches (no joke it was down to my knees and I'm 5'6". The colors and feel of the fabric were to die for. The top is not white, but more like a creamy taupe. Like I said, the fit was super tight, but there was not bulging or pinching, it was super flattering and pretty comfortable. I wore nude peep toe platform heels, a simple necklace and tennis bracelet. I must admit though, that it was tight enough that I felt like I couldn't eat a single thing, not even a biscuit! lol So you might not want to wear this dress anywhere where people will look at you funny when you order a biscuit and only have room to eat half of it! Haters gonna hate! Can't wait for an excuse to wear another Herve!

I wore this dress for my birthday and could not have been happier. It felt age appropriate and everyone loved it, especially the ombre coloring which looks amazing in person. I wore a size small, and found that the straps were a bit loose and the dress went below the knee, but I folded it up and it stayed in place for the most part. Overall, a great dress!

The perfect wedding dress
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I did not originally order this dress (it was sent instead of my back up size), but I could not have been happier with the dress. It fit wonderfully; I could adjust the amount of cleavage and the length was perfect to not be overly provocative for a wedding. I got so many compliments on this dress. I would recommend it to everyone!!!

Definitely go up a size bigger than what you normally wear. I am normally an XS, but it was way too tight. Luckily, rentherunway lets you order a second size! It definitely shows all of your curves! The dress was way too long for me, but it was easy to fix with hem tape. I I could not have asked for a better dress to wear at my senior dance! I will definitely be renting this dress again!

Perfect for a Ferrari party! Many compliements throughout the night!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
To be honest, I wasn't in love with this dress when I first tried it on. It was way too long for both my preference and my petite build, and I didn't really like the rounded U neck tank neckline, I thought it was a bit athletic feeling. However when I actually wore the dress and put it together with hair, makeup, shoes, and accesories, I liked it much better and thought the look came together really well. This is more of a subtle, understated Herve rather than all out sexy. It worked well for the Ferrari cocktail party I was attending. Obviously I wanted to look good and have the best dress there, but since it wasn't a super fancy event, I didn't want to go all out glam or look like I was trying too hard. This dress was perfect for it, still sexy and interesting without being over the top. I would recommend this for events like these, for events like my birthday or NYE, this would be too understated for my taste. I used tape to shorten the dress two bands length, and it made a huge difference in how the dress looked on me. I thought it fit very true to size, I usually wear XS in Herve, and this fit the same as the others I've worn. I felt great in it and got many compliments throughout the night!

I absolutely adore this dress!! I've rented it more than once and every time it's a knock-out
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I can wear either a small or a medium in this dress depending on how worn the dress is(I've mostly opted for the medium) and the look that I'm going for...It's definitely body hugging and it shows more cleavage than pictured especially if you are fuller busted like me but it's also not too revealing, the length is appropriate for most occasions. I was able to wear it with a regular or push-up bra each time and no shape wear needed as is the case for most Herve dresses. The color gradient effect is very slimming and trust me others will know when you're rockin' an Herve!!!

Felt like THE birthday girl!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this dress to celebrate my 27th birthday. I was a little scared that it would be too long since I am 5' 0' but it hit about 1" above my knee, perfect for the look I wanted. When I showed my beau the dress his mouth fell open and I wasn't even wearing it yet. At my birthday dinner everyone, including strangers, complimented me on how well it fit my body. It truly is a piece that accentuates all the right curves of a woman's body. I plan to purchase a HL dress in the near future. The coloring of the dress is more beautiful in person. I highly recommend this dress if you want to feel sexy and like a million bucks.

I felt like ROYALTY in this dress! A beautiful dress that was classy and sexy.
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size

Although I have broad shoulders the straps of my dress were a little loose but other than that the dress fit like a glove. It was loose enough that I could dance and form fitting enough to be sexy. I thought I could get away with wearing a regular bra but I had to go strapless that's something to keep in mind. Overall I would rent it again in a heart beat! I am a happy RTR customer.

Common Compliment was "Stunning"
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Vacation
This dress was true to size. I usually wear a size 4, and ordered a small. It is definitely fitted, but I think a medium would have been too big. I am 5'7. I wore it in Vegas, so I also ordered hem tape. Otherwise it would have been too long for a nightclub outing, even though I'm not a shorter girl. Be prepared for the fact that the dress is heavy, and you will definitely feel it more than a lighter dress when you are wearing it.

Wore this to a Bachelorette party in NYC, fit beautifully! It was a hit!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I am only 5'1" and the dress length came to my knee. I tried on the XS and the S and both fit very well. The reason i ended up wearing the S was because I wanted to have some 'give' in the dress because we were going out to dinner before the Bachelorette party. I am a 30 DD and i didnt need to wear a bra!. Beautiful dress, great fit, easy process. Will definitely rent this dress or this designer's dresses again. The XS was shorter, which i wanted, and was very fitted. It was wearable, but only if you are not going to go out for a big dinner!

Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size

I originally got this dress due to a suggestion by one of the stylists; the other dress I had ordered didn't have the size I wanted. I tried this one in the XS, and it was definitely pretty snug but it was beautiful! I got a LOT of compliments at my New Year's party and overall, it was just great. I'm 5'0 but I'm fairly curvy, and a size 34B as well.

This dress is extremely snug without being too tight and is made of thick, supportive material that helps hold everything in place. I'm pretty short so the dress came to the top of my knees, but I think that kept the look classy. As Michael Kors says, "Short and tight is the fastest was to look cheap." Love the dress...with I owned it!

After a snafu with my original rented dress, RTR kindly offered to send me alternative dresses for my rehearsal dinner. This dress did the trick. It seems to have stretched out a bit due to repeated wear (and I think an XXS would have had more of a bandage effect on me), but it still worked out nicely. RTR was great in handling the issue (and dealing with a stressed out bride-to-be)!

Hugs and cinches! Shows off all the curves! Felt very confident in this dress (after some shape wear) this dress is very interesting with the ombré affect. Not so standout like I'd wear for my birthday because the colors are muted but interesting and beautiful enough to stand out in a crowd. Got so many compliments all night.

This dress is awesome! The fit is tight but not too revealing. I toughened it up and paired it with black/pewter studded accessories. This dress would look best on an hourglass figure- it accentuates a small waist. I am 5'3" and it hit right above my knee. This dress also photographs beautifully.
