I originally ordered the XS, but unfortunately whoever rented it before me did not return the dress in time and so RTR was unable to send it to me even though I had reserved the dress months in advance for my 30th birthday party. RTR however has AMAZING customer service and they bent over backwards to work something out for me--they overnighted not just one alternative dress but two of my choice regardless of cost in addition to the size S of this dress which they did have available just in case I wanted to try it anyway for a total of three Hervé Légers. Although the XS dresses fit me the best (super tight the way a HL should be!), I really had my heart set on this dress even if it was a size S. I'm petite so the top was a little loose on me and the length came down to my knees, but I was determined to make it work! Luckily bandage dresses are tight by nature anyway so the body fit overall was ok. I just used lots of fashion tape all around the bottom for the hem to shorten the length about 5-6 inches, and I used the stick-on NuBra and fashion taped the dress to that too so it wouldn't shift while I was dancing. The XS would have been perfect so I still wish I had received it so that I wouldn't have had to make all those adjustments, but it worked out in the end. I got SO many compliments and the hot pink color really popped against my complexion. It made me feel so pretty and softened the blow of ending my 20s, lol. Love! Love! Love!
