Awesome super hot dress, that made this mom feel sexy and my man's jaw drop.
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this to a Miami wedding held on a yacht. It fit true to size for me--no vanity sizing here. I wear a 2 to 4 in the Gap which everyone knows is really a 4 to a 6. The small fit my 5'3" frame great. I have a big butt and a 34C chest. It was tight in my chest area. I needed assistance zipping it up. I took advantage of the open bar so I cannot say whether it got loose but I can say I got tons of compliments from guys and gals and I loved this dress. You COULD wear spanx with this dress if you got the ones that don't have the seam in the front but I found it unnecessary. It did tent a little at the small of my back BUT I really do have a large derriere--that should not be a problem for most ladies. I don't regret my rental and I am already looking at another dress for my brother-in-law's July wedding. I am looking at something more conservative as his wedding is a traditional church ceremony. Keep in mind when looking at my weight that I have a large frame so 140 sounds bigger than it actually is--if you normally wear a 6 and we are the same weight I would get a medium with a small as backup.

NYE perfect party dress!
Size worn: XXS
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Party
I wore this on NYE. I ordered two dresses and I am glad I did because the one I originally picked out was not as flattering. This dress fits really small/ I am 5'1" and 100lbs and it was tight! But I liked that fit. If you prefer a little more comfort go one size up. I rented earrings as well and lost one...I am a little surprised that for the price and heaviness of the earrings I ordered, they gave such a crappy back. They were too light to hold the earrings on. I love this site and will definitely rent again!

I wore this dress for my 30th birthday party - the colors and material of the dress are incredible - I would highly recommend this dress and had a blast wearing it! Just an FYI, there were times I had to pull up the top as you would with mostly any strapless dress.

I wore this dress to a semi formal wedding this summer, loved the bright colors and fit. The internal strap helps keep the dress up, no adjusting necessary even when spending all night on a dance floor.

Fun Dress for a Fun Night
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size

Loved the color blocking! Despite the very tight fit, the dress is really comfortable! Plenty of spandex involved, so I had no problem being able to move around freely. Been looking for others like it for every occasion!

Everyone loved the colors of this dress! Super fun for a Bachelorette party!

Overall fit: True to Size

This dress is awesome. It hugs your curves- but in a good way! The material is thick and forgiving so curvy girls look great in it! One issue- even though this material is thick- it is possible to sweat through it. Granted we were in Austin, TX and it was 90 degrees at night:)

Size worn: S
Overall fit: Small

I rented this dress for my 23rd birthday. I was a little hesitant because it was a tight bandage dress, but I ended up loving it. I'm usually a size 4 so I rented at small and it was a little snug. Overall I was very pleased with it and received lots of complements and birthday drinks!

I felt so good wearing this dress! Many compliments from friends and the boyfriend. It's tight but the material is thick so it gives your body a smooth figure. This is perfect for a hot date or cocktail party!

It was a Birthday Party that I'll remember forever!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I ordered the XS and a S. My measurements are 29-27-42. Pear. The XS fit PERFECTLY!! I wore a VS Bombshell strapless bra and I didn't have to adjust the top at all. The color is more of a fuchsia than a purple. The teal strip on the side was my favorite part!

My husband could not keep his eyes off of me. He was so attentive and proud. He finally admitted, "Wow! You're beautiful." My son confirmed it on his facebook page.

This is an amazingly well fitting dress. I didn't think it would be, but I never once had to adjust it like I do with all other sleeveless dresses. Although I've lost nearly 20 pounds to wear this dress, I still had some problem areas, but they are well concealed with this dress.

If you are tiny, herve leger xxs is for you! The dress is snug but flexible enough that you can actually walk. There is an internal bra closure that help prevent wardrobe malfunctions. I wore this to the Modern Ball at the MOMA, and it was definitely a hit!

Best birthday dress!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
Wore this for my birthday this year with opaque tights and black booties and LOVED it! The only struggle was having to pull the top up all night, but I suppose that's to be expected with a strapless dress and a small bust. The bottom also tends to ride up a bit. I'm 5'8.5", and the S looked a bit shorter than the pictures but I was totally comfortable with opaque tights. Overall another great Herve rental from RTR!

I always get a second dress; I have a little anxiety about a dress not looking a certain way. But this was an awesome dress as well. My friends thought the other dress look better so I went with that! I would rent it again.

I love Herve Leger and usually wear a medium. This dress fit really well all over, looked fantastic and had a sneaky strap inside around the back to keep it up, so unlike most strapless dresses it did not fall down at all. I wore a strapless Marie Jo bra underneath. I would recommend it as long as you feel comfortable in the Herve Leger look - it is a tight fitting dress!

This is an awesome dress to stand out. And it's supportive for a large chest without wearing a bra. I was able to dance in and not have to pull down the bottom too much.

Herve Leger my GO-TO...
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
Unfortunately I actually didn't wear this dress but I rented it for a bachelorette party in Chicago....Since I rented two other amazing dresses this one sat the weekend out. I did try it on, ran true to Herve sizing (I always wear a small) Great dress! No tugging or pulling on the top to keep it up.

Yowza!

Overall fit: True to Size

Where do I even begin.... I would've given a 10 star rating if possible. Stunning, gorgeous, makes you feel (and look) like a million bucks! If you're considering this rental, do it! I wore the Med. and would've liked the Large but the bust was very stretched out and back waistband too big to work out. Perfect length, fits and accentuates curves rather than flattening like many strapless do, and comfortable enough to dance all night. Love, love, love and can't wait for the next reason to rent it again :)

I wore this dress for my bachelorette in Miami. It was a great dress for the occassion. One thing about Herve Legers to keep in mind is that they do give a bit after a few hours of wearing them, so if it is a bit snug at first but you can get it on and aren't bulging out in weird place it is the right fit. I usually wear a 4/6 and the small fit me perfectly.
