This dress is a 10!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size

It's a snug fit, but it's a solid dress so you really don't need spanx. I usually wear an XS but it was jussssst a little too small - so I went with the S and it was perfect. The off the shoulder style was totally comfortable, unlike other OTS dresses that I feel like I'm always fixing, pulling up, pulling down, etc. I could wrap my arms around my boyfriend's neck to dance without it pulling or feeling uncomfortable, and the neckline/shoulders naturally stayed in place without me having to mess with it. I was also warm, and totally comfortable the entire night. This dress just shot up to the top of my favorites list.

Everyone said it looked like the dress was made for me! I loved it and it was very comfortable.

First, RTR has the very best customer service I have ever experienced! Megan B is fantastic! I thought that I had really messed up when I ordered the dress for wrong day. Even though I needed it for the day after a big holiday and a day earlier than I originally ordered it for Megan B and RTR made it happen. Great dress and much more forgiving than it looks like it would be. I purchased spanx and spanx pantyhose to wear with the dress and suprisingly was fine with just the pantyhose. The dress was very heavy, although not uncomfortable. I think that was what helped hold things in place, even though it was not as tight as it looks. Like a previous wearer mentioned the sleeves are a bit tight in the upper arms and that made it a bit difficult to keep the dress at the place on my shoulders where I wanted it to sit. But I couldn't have been happier with any other dress from any where else in the in the world. I will probably never buy another expensive, one time wear dress again now that I have RTR!

This dress was such a hit and quite comfortable. I was surprised how heavy the dress was when I received it. I'm typically a size small, yet the medium fit just perfectly. I loved the subtle sexiness of the off-the-shoulder design and classy length. Highly recommend! Just wish I owned this dress myself.

Leger. What else is there to say? If you've worn them, you know you'll never look as good in another dress. If you haven't, rent one and it will change your life. My husband wants me to only wear Leger's for the rest of time after I rented this one. The off-the shoulder look is super sexy. The thing sit me like a glove....a tight, spanx glove. No bra with this one--none needed.

This dress is AMAZING! I received compliment after compliment all night long!!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I saw this Herve Leger dress and knew I had to rent it. It was just the style I was looking to wear for my New Year's Eve party. And when I received the dress it didn't disappoint. The dress fit like a glove and accented every curve on my body. My boyfriend couldn't keep his eyes off me all night. I received so many compliments from both men and women about how much they loved the dress. I ordered a size MD and was nervous about it fitting after so many of the reviews commented on how the dress runs a little small. But I thought it fit true to size. Even though it's a form fitting dress it is forgiving with some stretch. I was able to move and dance freely throughout the night. I would definitely rent another Herve Leger dress again! And my experience with RTR was fantastic. They made everything so easy.

I was surprised the M didn't work. I was thinking it was a combination of my broad back and my bra size but we couldn't zip it up more then half way. Was a gorgeous dress and very heavy. Great winter dress.

Size worn: S
Overall fit: Small

Size--was my second choice, so I only had it in a small. I managed to get into the dress with prayer and a shoehorn, but once on, va va voom! (note: definitely should have ordered a M or even a L)
Fit--despite the lack of wiggle room, I looked amazing. Very flattering, forgiving dress.
Response--compliments all night. I was hot!

Great dress - definitely give it a try. Fantastic introduction to Herve. Lots of compliments.
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
Dress is quite heavy and stretches a lot once you get into it. Very flattering and size M worked, although I was initially wanting an L. Liked the long sleeves for coverage and also was a perfect length. Dress sits nicely off the shoulders and stays there. Gets quite hot because of the amount of material, so wouldn't wear in Summer. I will definitely try HL again!!

The off the shoulder top softens the look of this dress. I ordered this as a backup and really loved the fit. The fit was not as tight as i thought it would be but it was tight enough. It was comfortable and looked great. I wore bold earrings, red lipstick and was all set. Loved this dress and wish I had somewhere else to wear it. I recommend keeping it simple and classy with this one.

Amazing fit, snug to show all the curves and only the curves you want to show. The ombre color is really gorgeous and not metallic or too much. If your arms are a little bigger at the bicep, the dress could feel uncomfortable-- keep that in mind. I paired it with a pair of black Badgley Mischka embellished heels.

This dress runs SO SMALL!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Party
I am a small girl and normally wear a 0 or size 2. This dress is ran so small it wasn't even an option for wearing. What a disappointment, I had to go to plan B which was something I had in my closet. Additionally the dress was much heavier than expected. Even if it did fit I dont think it would have been a favorite.

more flattering than you would expect
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size

I wanted the medium size, but it wasn't available, so I ordered the size small and didn't eat for a week. Thank goodness the x-small was stretchy enough and fit. I think this is an age appropriate "clubbing" dress for the young 30-something woman because it is not too short and has long sleeves. Yet, it's off the shoulder and tight so you don't look too prudish.

This was my first rental and I desperately wanted to try a Herve Leger - I'm glad I did! The dress was a bit snug to get into but once I got in, I noticed how it perfectly molded my body into such a great shape. This dress is definitely a show stopper without showing too much skin! AND you don't need much to adorn it...maybe a small dainty necklace and some nice heels or flats...and a smile! :)

I absolutely LOVED the long sleeves. It made the dress that much more formal. It was perfect for the formal evening wedding I attended and the best part - the compliments kept coming all night!!!
This is my FOURTH Herve Leger rental, I can't seem to get enough of Leger!
P.S. You'll need help zipping it up and zipping it off.

I've never EVER been complimented so much in my 29 years of life!
The fabric is like spanx so no need to wear anything underneath. The fabric is heavy but it doesn't feel like it on - don't be scared when you pick it up and feel the weight!
Color is gorgeous and stands out from all the other LBDs.
I recommend this dress for anyone who wants to feel elegant and beautiful in their skin! You will not be sorry ;)

the dress is perfect. takes a friend (or two) to get it zipped, but once it's on, it looks and feels terrific. no spanx needed, not even a bra, as the material is so thick and tight, everything just stays where it should.

Overall fit: True to Size

I wore this to a corporate Christmas party, it is a classy, demure dress - all body parts covered! A perfect length - hit right at my knee. This dress wraps you in sexy while everything else is covered completely. So easy to wear, no adjusting needed, holds everything in place. I did not wear a bra - did wear spanx. I am not a petite person, I am athletic, muscular, "glamazon" runs in my family- I wanted to post this pic to show that you do not have to be a tiny size 2 to look sexy. I am a 44 year old grandmother and finding great dresses can be a challenge when you want to stay covered up. This dress gives you a sexy look and feel that is off the charts- received hundreds of compliments!

Great dress however the XS was just way too small for my arms. I had ordered a small as my backup but for some reason it was not included. RTR has since taken care of. I have a small frame but defined arms and these sleeves were just not going over my baby biceps.

Great fitting dress
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Date
I rented this dress for a night on the town for my boyfriend's birthday. I wanted a dress that was knee length and had some class but still looked sexy-this dress was perfect for that. I wore the dress with metallic pumps and simple, silver jewelry.
The medium dress I received, you could tell it was a rental favorite as the fabric appeared stretched out when I first took it out of the box and when you held it up to the light you could see through it in some parts (only at the seams between the bandage pieces). Once I put the dress on, however, you could not tell at all and it still hugged you in all of the right places.
You definitely need someone to zip you into this dress and get you out of it, so be sure to plan for that!

I'm usually a 0-2 and the size small fit perfectly. My back-up size was unavailable last minute, but RTR's customer service truly shined and sent me 2 back-up dresses for free. Thankfully I didn't need to use them as the Herve dress fit, but I am thankful that was an option. I would definitely recommend this dress for a wedding or cocktail party. My husband loved so much I may have to rent this one again :)

This is like wearing all-over, comfortable SPANX! No bra necessary. It literally form fits your body but isn't constricting. I'll absolutely rent another Herve Leger dress. Genius design!
