Dressy!

Dressy, nice length, just as pictured, great detail, easy way to give a kick to a solid dress -- or even to a T.

Fun cut and fabric, flattering

Loved this dress, super easy to wear. Threw it on with patent leather flip flops after a day at the beach and was ready for the bbq and after party. Felt a little big in the waist / hips; also, even at 6', the shoulders fell down from time to time. (This wasn't a real problem because of the cute bust bandeau lining, but still a bit of a hassle.) Consider sizing down one for your backup size. Fabric has nice sheen and looks like real Missoni. Could imagine it dressed up strappy sandals or even pumps. I went braless, but consider a strapless since the fabric gets a little scratchy there.

Gorgeous, classy

I loved this dress for being the perfect parts sexy and classy. Definitely shows off the bod (and is quite short!), but the delicate little sleeves and the flared skirt give it a less "clubby" feel than most the other herves on this site. Wore it without a bra no prob. Fits TTS, though I have somewhat broad shoulders and was surprised the S accommodated them so well. Lovely piece, easy to dress up or down (though not too far down...)

Lovely day dress

Love this dress, truly beautiful. The print is gorgeous. The fabric seems a little more appropriate for day than for a formal night, but could be dressed up, especially with the intricate skirt. Fit is true to size. Perhaps a little short-waisted. Also, the skirt is very full; some may like that to hide hips, but it also adds a bit of bulk.

Don’t Mind If I Do Dress

Lela Rose

Size Worn: 6

Usual Size: 4

Height: 6' 0"

Bust: 32D

Lovely fabric and cut

This Lela Rose is magnificent. The cut is very flattering. The waist is nicely tailored, the neckline draws attention to the collarbone (without being at all revealing!), and the single cap sleeve slims the arm. Also the fabric is beyond gorgeous and definitely takes the dress visibly to the "premier designer" level. Colors are vibrant. I would say the dress runs approximately true to size, but maybe a little large in the hips and a little small in the bust. Also, note that the fabric does not have much give and is knee length, so a little tough to get to wild on the dance floor.

Simple, elegant

Wore this to a wedding with a (quite elaborate) Lela Rose dress and it was the perfect, elegant touch. The colors are beautiful, the stones hang nicely -- even with the twist, and the necklace is simple enough that it doesn't demand too much attention. The necklace also felt just as appropriate when I wore it the next day out to brunch with a little white Splendid T. Very versatile. More subtle than most RTR accessories.

This is beyond gorgeous in person. The colors are vibrant and the cut is supreme. The juxtaposition of the bands give the appearance of a super slim waist, 34C cups fit in the top of the size S just fine -- no need for a minimizer--, and the darker bands on the bottom of the skirt lend a true hourglass appeal. This dress will turn heads.

The fabric of this dress is thick and luxurious with a beautiful sheen, and the cut outs and ruffle details are unique. Do note that, although the model's legs appear to go on forever, this dress is a couple inches longer than a standard mini length. RTR is right that this style runs small, but I'm not sure it's a full size small. I'm usually between a 4 and a 6; in this style, the 6 fit perfectly and the 8 was distinctly too large. Consider ordering your true size and getting one size larger as your back-up. My only qualm with this dress is the way my arms felt (and looked) in it; the cap sleeves lie much more on the shoulders than on the upper arms, both on the model (as I now see) and on me, and the armholes themselves are a touch small (in both sizes). The end result is that the dress is a little uncomfortable to move my upper body around in and my arms look a tad larger than normal in profile view. Still a stunning dress, though.

This dress is completely hot. If you want to look like Barbie with a booty, this is definitely a go. The piece gives a great lift on top (though be prepared with double-sided tape), slims the waist (thanks to criss-crossing bandages that are a bit hard to see in these pics), and makes your legs go on forever (when they say mini-length, they aren't kidding). It definitely gives a booty, but most Herve's do (see Herve's Berry Ombre Shoulder dress if you want to minimize what's behind... and, for that matter, what's on top). RTR doesn't recommend this for tall girls, but, even at 6 foot, I felt fine in it; like most Herve's, it doesn't ride up, so the mini length isn't as dangerous as in less well-made designs. The S fit true to size.

Well, Herve (and RTR!) did it again. This is to die for. It's short without being too short; and its just a tad bit longer in the back to cover up any upper-leg self-conciousness. The dark (and unique) color minimizes everywhere (except the bust) even better than the lighter colored Herves. The straps are super sexy, as is the low back; consider wearing your hair up to draw attention to both. And the bandage design does wonders for accentuating the waist.This style fits true to size for an Herve, though the neckline is quite low so 34Cs could be pushing it in a small... if I were going for a slightly more refined look, that is...

First thing you'll notice when you get this in the mail is that the color is rich and totally wow. The neckline, moreover, is incredibly hot and the bandage design, while simple, is super flattering. I wholeheartedly agree with RTR's sizing recommendations: a C-cup is pushing it a little in the XS, although a bit of double-sided tape does the trick; plus, the straps are a little longer (and the neckline already quite low), so a longer body probably works a bit better in this one.
