Elegant but fun with POCKETS!
I usually run between a 2 and a 4. There was no way I could even zip up the size 2. The size 4 fit great but was definitely snug in the waist. I'm currently about 125lbs, size 32DD/34D, 5'5". The upper portion of the dress has some stretch to it but the waist band does not and the zipper has a tendency to stick (even on the hanger). As long as you size up, this dress is AMAZING. I felt elegant but also flirty and fun. I loved that the dress had pockets so I didn't even have to bring a purse. RTR was also amazing in the process. My size 4 didn't originally get shipped and I wasn't crazy about the backup they sent (it fit...just didn't care for it style wise). Because the size 2 was so small, I wasn't sure if going up one size was going to be enough. They were nice enough to send another backup style, the size 4 and the size 6! They really went above and beyond to make sure I had a dress I would love for my event.

Fitted, comfortable, sexy
This dress was very fitted (typical Herve Leger) but was very comfortable and did not ride up. I especially loved the little V shape in the middle of the front hemline. It added just a little extra sexiness to the dress. The cut in the back was great as well but the strap on the back of the neck was a bit loose. I wore my hair down so that didn't bother me much. I am small busted (B cup) and didn't feel the need for a bra.

Perfect for the 1920s theme!
I usually wear a size 2 but the 2 was a bit loose around the waist so I went with the 0 instead. It fit great but was a little shorter than I expected. I have a pretty big backside which probably made it a bit shorter on me :-) The gala we went to was 1920s themed and this was modern but with a flapper-like flair. I added a long string of pearls and a period hairdo and it turned out great. The dress has a double liner and I did have issues with the shorter liner riding up a bit when I danced but it wasn't too bad. The front was pretty conservative but the back was really sexy. I am barely a B cup so I wore a stick on pushup bra because I didn't want to look flat chested. Overall I loved the dress and got compliments all night.

Cute and modest
I wore this for a company Christmas party. It was great because it was fitted without being too sexy. My husband loved it too. It tended to ride up a bit when dancing but nothing too bothersome. I wasn't in love with it but it fit the bill.

Elegant dress with sexy lines
I got this dress as a backup because the dress I ordered wasn't available in my size at the last minute. My measurement are 34-26-36 and the 2R fit like a glove. I loved that I could wear a regular bra with it and it was very comfortable. The material isnt stretchy but has a slight give to it that helps it hug all the right places. The material is thick and sturdy. I danced all night in it and it never slipped or bunched. This was a great choice for a black tie affair. It was a black dress but the patterning of the lace added an unusual detail.

I got compliments from complete strangers. I felt gorgeous!
My backup size was not available for the date of my event so I was pretty nervous renting this dress. It fit beautifully though. The dress arrived on time in perfect condition and fit like a glove. The dress has no lining but the ruching is very flattering. The back of the dress is gorgeous.
