Really wanted to like it but...
Color is so vibrant and amazing. I really wanted to like this dress but it just hung oddly on me like a shapeless saggy sac. I have a small waist so maybe that's why but it just didn't look right. Also wrinkles so easily that it just looked like I slept in it.

Matronly- odd fit
Squishes your boobs in a weird way and overall looks very matronly. Color is also weird.

Beautiful and multi purpose dress
Beautiful dress. Wore it so many times my boyfriend noted. If you have hourglass shape, it fits like a glove. Only comment is wish the straps were adjustable length. Kept sliding off a bit but still great dress. I'm considering buying it.

Sexy yet elegant
Beautiful and well made. Very flattering. Sophisticated and sexy. Thick fabric yet very stretchy and felt fine on my super sensitive skin. I am considering buying it. Got so many compliments.

Prettier in person than in photos
This dress has a subtle lilac hue that really elevates the look. I don't think it photographs well. It is so much prettier in person. I wore it to a conference in Miami day into night. Incredibly comfortable.

Beautiful elegant dress
Very well made, beautiful dress. The lining and the fabric are great. Fall heavy and well. I have a pretty small waist and it fit great but if your body type is different, might be a tough fit on the waist/rib cage. Also, DDs barely squeezed in there so if you're bustier, consider sizing up.

Sexy dress
Head turner. Worn out a bit so not as tight on top as a typical Herve would be but still pretty spectacular support. I'm natural DD so I never wear anything without a bra but I did wear this one.

Nice dress. Safe choice. Very comfy.
I am 5'10" I was in 4" heels and a platform and the length was fine. The seam on the cleavage kept turning inside out at the edge which was frustrating and also I felt that the dress actually flattened my chest and pressed my beasts down. As I said, it's ok dress, a safe black tie choice.

Beautiful dress. Runs a bit short
I am 5'10" so I wore the L size and still I had to use shorter heel than I would've liked. Without shoes the dress was not touching the floor which means any size heel was already too long. For such a formal dress, it should've allowed for 4". Otherwise very pretty and flattering. Very heavy. Surprisingly so. It was a safe choice type of dress.

Very comfy but not that striking
I usually wear a size 8 and I would have ordered M but for the fact that it wasn't available so I went for an L since I really wanted to try this dress. I ended up wearing another one I had ordered. The L was a little loose but depending on whether you like a more snug or a more comfy fit, you could go either way. I happen to like more snug body hugging fit so I didn't use it. The material is thick and the length is great for a tall person. It might overwhelm anybody under 5'8". I loved the shape and feel of the dress but I was greatly disappointed in the colors. The print is not as striking as the picture makes it seem. The colors looked much more subdued and dull and faded. Instead of sophisticated, high-end, unique, it felt more of an ordinary, girly and moderately priced dress. One would never guess this dress costs more than $80 bucks. It felt high-end when you put it on because of the quality of the materials and fit but if you just looked at me wearing it, it looked ordinary. I wouldn't get it again. I was very disappointed, in light of the prior rave reviews I had high expectations.

Nice dress but don't forget the double-sided tape
the dress is beautiful and more comfortable than I thought it would be especially since I have very sensitive skin and I was afraid the lace sleeves will make me itch or sweat. The one thing that ruined the whole look was that the nude slip underneath was actually longer than the lace by a bit so it kept peeking on the front and the back the whole night! Additionally, the dress kept riding up which made it even worse. It is sewn to the lace on the sides so I couldn't just push it up underneath and I forgot the doublesided tape at home so I was really frustrated. Instead of looking well put together I ended up having to pull and push and tuck and adjust and fidget every few minutes.

Formal Wedding - church part
Rented it for the church ceremony of the wedding and I was very pleased with the fit. I am 5'10" and it cut me off at the knee similarly to the picture. I wish it came an inch or so longer but oh well. Also I have a very small waist as compared to my hips and I had some room. There is no way to adjust the belt as it is sown on. It wasn't obvious to anybody though.

Black Tie Wedding
The dress runs very large. As in more than a size and a half at least. I usually wear 8, barely ever squeeze in a 6 and in this dress the 6 was loose. Especially around my waist, however, I do have a somewhat uncommonly small waist in proportion to my hips. Regardless the dress runs very large. I'd recommend getting at least one if not two sizes below your usual. Oddly, it also runs short. I wore the 6L and I am 5'10" yet barefoot the dress would graze the floor but in heels (any height at all) the shoes were immediately visible. There is no way not to wear heels with this one, it is just too formal. On top of the poor fit, the color is not quite the same shade as the picture suggests. It was a bit of a darker more muted burgundy red. Nonetheless, I received many compliments throughout the evening and it is indeed quite comfortable. Only wish it fit a bit better.
