hooray for something that fits!
Thank god for this dress. I was matron of honor in a wedding and had purchased a different dress in a large size when I was 12 weeks pregnant. By 18 weeks it was way too small! This was a last minute scramble and it wound up being absolutely perfect for me and my 20 week bump. I'm 5'5" and the long length was perfect with a small heel (the regular length was exactly floor length when I was barefoot). I will say, if you're busty it's quite a challenge to tie the top in a way that feels secure and covers the girls - definitely took a few tries! I wish the panels of fabric were a little bit wider but it did wind up working in the end. The color and the fabric are beautiful and I got a lot of compliments.

Perfect for 4th of July
I never wear strapless but this dress looked so cute I made an exception. Overall I really liked it and got several compliments. The red isn't TOO bright but still a true red. It did start stretching out a bit throughout the evening and I had to keep adjusting the top, but it held up a lot better than I expected. I think if my chest was any smaller it would have fallen right off though!

Perfect for a bridal shower
I wore this dress for my cousin's bridal shower this summer and loved it. It definitely runs VERY small, though. I'm always a 0 or a 2, and the 2 worked but just barely (very tight on the rib cage). I probably could have worn a 4. But the colors are even more beautiful in person and it's so feminine!

This was the perfect birthday dress
I love Herve dresses (I think this is the third time I've worn one). The color of this one was amazing - definitely a more subtle gold. My regular size XS was tight at first, but it stretches throughout the night. And I could even wear a normal bra underneath. Wear this if you want to get noticed.

classy & sexy
Love this dress! The colors are really sophisticated and the fit is really sexy without being too revealing. I've worn Herve Leger before and I'm ALWAYS an XS, but the XS in this dress was super tight (especially around the girls). I almost couldn't get it zipped. It worked out, but I might have gone with a S if it was available.

Absolutely loved this dress for my friend's wedding. It really runs small though. I couldn't even zip up my usual size 0. The 2 fit perfectly with one exception - this dress is definitely made for ladies with a little less on top. It took some careful positioning to make my 32D chest fit without looking ridiculous, but in the end it all worked out and the dress looked beautiful - and there were no complaints from my boyfriend :)
