Nice color
I sized up to a large but it was really too big. Should have gone with a medium. It was very low cut and I couldn't wear a bra with it so the smaller size would have been better for keeping everything in place. (I'm a 36dd). The color was more orangey than red almost like a tangerine. The skirt had a nice flare and the fabric was the usual Herve heavy duty

Orange Dasha Dress
Hervé Léger
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 10
Very pretty on but still conservative enough for work
It is unusual and got lots of complements. It is fitted with no stretch so if you are between sizes go for the bigger one. The only con was that the mesh part on top was a little itchy. I wore a black bra with it and you could see the straps through the mesh but it still looked fine

Great red color
Dress is nicely tailored and fabric is thick. It fits true to size and maybe even a bit large. The fabric has some stretch and overall the dress if very flattering. The color is also great.

gorgeous color
Accentuates your curves. The back of this dress is low so you can't wear a standard bra. But because it is so form fitting you can go without (and I am a 36dd). The color is a really pretty hot pink. This is a great dress for curvy girls

Ardell Dress

Warm dress
Fabric is heavy and keeps you warm. The pattern is actually white and very pale blue with black even though I thought it was black & white from the picture. The dress is ok but I didn't think it was anything fabulous. I ordered the large because I didn't want it too clingy but would have been better off with the medium

Great color
Dress is nice for work but would not choose for a fancy event. It runs true to size, maybe a little large. If you are a borderline go for the smaller size. The ruffles around the neck kept folding in underneath and I had to untuck. But overall it is a nice, well made dress with a flattering fit. Good for hourglass shapes because of the tailoring.

Gorgeous
Loved this dress. It is really a stand out. It drapes wonderfully. I wore a size 10 because the 8 wasn't available. It was a little big but still looked great. It is really unique and very flattering if you are curvy. You have to wear a strapless bra with this though.

Loved it
Fabric and color are fabulous. It hugs in all the right places but not in an obvious way. It is a very well-made dress that looks great on.

Fun night out
As other reviewers have said, this dress is long. I am 5'7" and wore 4 inch heels and the dress was sweeping the floor. If you are shorter (or don't wear heels) it is going to be very long. Love the color. The pink really pops.

Functional dress-able to dress up or down
The dress provided a little too much cleavage exposure so I wore another straight sheath dress underneath to provide some coverage. The fabric is also pretty thin and sheer. I didn't think it was anything very special, but it was fine to wear to work.

Did not wear
I have wide shoulders and a big chest. Normally wear a size 8 but I couldn't zip this dress up past mid back. The fabric is nice and thick. The color is lovely though. Next time I would rent this in a large
