I bought it
I love this dress. It’s just absolutely stunning. Heads turned when I walked in with this one, and deservedly so. It has a very form hugging fabric that tucks in your curves to just the right places. Where I’ve never been able to get an Herve Leger to fit just right, this one does.

Loved it so much I bought it twice
I love this dress. The fabric is gorgeous. I wore this through the airport and got no less than six (6!) comments that I looked like I belonged on the runway. Best. Vacation. Ever. But of course, then my friends and I went drinking, friend got sick on my beautiful dress after four wears, and I was heartbroken. 3 weeks later, I saw it was still on clearance in my size at an even lower price and said screw it, I still love that dress. I’ve worn dress 2.0 so many times. No regrets. Perfect for a classy birthday, summer wedding, class reunion, girls’ day out, through the airport (apparently)... you name it, it’s perfect.

I bought it
I love this dress so much. Such a fun, flirty wrap dress that goes so well from day into night. Enough floral pattern for daytime, and flowy black for night time. Also, the, ah, chest region, was poppin’ to say the least. Pro tip: Wear a push up bra and have some fun with this dress. Recommend pairing with a pair of nude or black heeled sandals or wedge sandals.

Just a bit too big
I ended up not wearing it. That said, I might try renting this dress in a smaller size later on; it’s a lovely thick fabric, and the shoulder set was great, as was the length and drape around the legs, it was just too big around the midsection and chest (gaping, yikes!) for me. I’ll add an update to the review if I get this one again.

I bought it.
Part of my motivation to try RTR unlimited was because I have a hard time committing to buying fine quality designer staples when I knew I’d find something I liked better down the road. This particular mission? The little red dress. Some are too orangey, some are too short, some I don’t like the fabric of, some are too burgundy... you get the idea. I wanted to find the *perfect* red dress. And this was it for me. I love the fabric, the red has only a slight orange undertone to it. (It doesn’t match the red bottoms on Louboutins, but it’s damn close, if you’re wondering), the fit worked in all the right places, the cleavage pops up for me just perfectly, the straps are wide enough and positioned correctly to hide regular bra straps, and the button closure at the neck on the back is a unique detail that sets it just a bit special from the rest. I love this dress, highly recommend.

Not for the super pale.
I really wanted to love this dress. The fabric, construction, pattern, concept, everything is exceptional. The only problem? I’m literally the same skin tone as the nude lining. You’d think this would be a cool effect, extra scandalous, but it wasn’t. With the pattern, my cleavage just turned into weird shadows behind the mesh and blended into the nude lining and looked really weird. There’s a reason they picked a tan model for this one, folks.

I loved it so much I bought it.
The one and only con: The zip is a bit hard to get yourself since it runs all the way up the back and the fabric has very little stretch to give as you reach for it. That’s it. That’s literally the only bad news. The texture of the fabric, the *color*, the flirty flair of the not-quite-too-short skirt, the dip of the vee at the chest, it’s perfect and I love it. As soon as I put it on just trying it on out of the bag I looked at my bank account because I knew I’d be buying it.

Didn’t fit. :-(
I really wanted this dress to fit. I am loving all of the emerald this season and want to wear all. of. it. It’s fitted around the rib cage, so definitely size up. Material is stiff, but it has a gorgeous sheen to it, so not super comfortable, but beautiful.

I wanted to like it more...
I really wanted to like this jacket more. The zip detail is super chic when put over a shell or blouse with black trouser. Unzip, and it feels like a blazer just became a cape. It’s also unobtrusive when zipped and functions like a normal blazer. The shoulders fit perfectly for me. But the length was too long, and the midsection was too loose. If it had been more couture and less prep school, it would have been the absolute perfect blazer. Great construction and material, it was just the fit that disappointed for me.

Didn't fit
Didn't come close to zipping up past my rib cage on the side zip. Runs very small. Cute pattern and nice light wearing fabric though.

Adorable but fussy fit
The look and fit around the waist were perfect, but for whatever reason I couldn't get the shoulder straps to settle into place, specifically the right one. I expected to adjust with this sort of top when I moved arms significantly up and down, but the right shoulder wanted to slide up out of place and make the shoulder strap gap all the time. Adorable but annoying. Would have bought the shirt if it had been less fussy.

I felt like a fairy!
Perfect fit dress, and super cute. My only issue was that the spaghetti straps over the shoulders sometimes wanted to come down, but that was minor. The rest of the dress fit like a glove.
