Great basic, excellent relaxed fit

Comfortable and a great slightly oversized fit. I wore these a lot.

This was more cropped than I anticipated and I never found the right pants to pair it with. Nice concept, and comfortable, but tough to pair with anything.

Wish I had taken a picture, but these pants were fantastic. If they weren’t so expensive, I would’ve bought them. I’d say they’re true to size, run slightly small in the waist.

This unassuming shirt is super cute on. I wore it a lot, and every time I got tons of compliments. Because of the draping, you don’t have to wear a bra with it, bonus! Shown here with Agolde jeans but it paired beautifully with the Veronica Bears trousers.

Short all the way around

I'm 12 weeks postpartum so I'm having some issues with sizing, but I'd say this runs small like most DVF dresses. The sleeve were too short on me (I have long arms) and the wrap wasn't flattering- the fabric around the bust wouldn't lay flat even though there was plenty of fabric to cover. It was like the tie could tie tight enough to hold the dress in place. I am 30DD, 27 in jeans.

First time feeling glamorous postpartum!

At 11 weeks postpartum I am still about 12 lbs over pre-pregnancy weight and my midsection is a bit softer than it used to be. This gown made feel so glamorous & beautiful! The skirt has an awesome flow; the fabric is the perfect weight to be both structured & flowing. I am 30DD and the bodice was a bit tough to zip, but once done it felt secure & comfortable. I would size based on your bust, since the rest of the dress is pretty forgiving! Currently a snug 27 in jeans, S in tops, 135 lbs.

Easy way to do maternity!

I'm not sure if my baby bump simply wasn't big enough, but these jeans kept falling down, resulting in a baggy crotch. I am 5months (23 weeks) along and am not unusually small for my gestational age. My pre-pregnancy pant size was a 26, so I felt like these should have fit a bit more snug. That said, the jean quality was great. Might try again at 7 months if I don't find another brand that fits better.

Elegant summer dress for anniversary

Lovely, bright wrap dress that could be dressed up for something more formal, or a little down for more casual elegance. I am a size 2/26 jean/32c/5'8 and the XSL fit beautifully, with a little room to be totally comfortable. It WAS way too long for me to wear with flat sandals- which were all I had on our vacation. The skirt had enough fabric that I was able to fashion a knot under the bust to bring up the length. Suggest sizing down for your backup. A regular strapless bra and nude seamless panties are perfect underneath.

This jacket is high qaulity leather! I think it runs true to size, but suggest sizing up depending on how you want to layer it. It was a snug over sweaters. One star off because the wool collar look weird on- i was glad it was detachable. Also, i got my hair caught more than a few times in the vollae buttons.

Color! So much color

LOVE the color of this dress. It is incredibly bright, almost fluorescent. Very flattering for pale skin. Very comfortable with nice stretch, and you can wear anything you like underneath as the lining is opaque. The fit wasn't quite right: shoulder fit well, but the waist and hips were baggy. Fabric pouched out at my lower back. I am a true size 2 but often wear 0s in dresses. Would definitely size down, especially for a night out or a date, but for work or every day wear, this was fine.

Love wearing Elizabeth & James!

Another winner by Elizabeth and James. Very flattering cut, slightly stretchy fabric, beautiful rich color. Received many compliments & felt amazing. As is typical with this brand, sizing up is recommended. I wear a 0 or 2 in dresses, but am consistently a 2 or 4 in E&J. I choose the 4 in this dress because it was for a holiday work party and I thought the 2 was a bit tight for the occasion.

This dress is lovely and high-quality. The nick line is very flattering. However, the fit was off for me. The XS was sooooo tight around my rib cage and stomach- I couldn't wait to take it off. I tried the S but it just look frumpy! I think I was in between sizes.

This is a fantastic jumper! I wish I had better pictures (sorry for the bathroom...). The XSL fit perfectly & the length was great with 3'' heels (I'm 5'8). I have long arms and the sleeves were actually long enough (rare). I felt effortlessly elegant & chic, and got many compliments. Everyone wanted to know where I got it (RTR, of course!). Perfect outfit for a chilly night, and the color is so flattering. Zipper in the back makes it easy to get in an out of. Would love to rent again or buy! Versatile (party, work, wedding...) and delightful. Loving the jumpsuit trend!

I got this as a back up dress, but there was only a size 2 available. I'm usually a 0 in dresses, but 2s often work. I really wanted to make this work, but it was way too loose around my rib cage and bust and I knew I'd be paranoid about it falling down. It has a very flattering and fun silhouette (makes your waist look tiny!), and the fabric and color is rich and amazing. I'd love to give this a whirl in a 0.

Small & short!

I was super excited about this dress, but there was only the 0 available and, while I normally wear a 0 in dresses, I always try to get a 2 as a backup. This was VERY small. And not only small, but short. The skirt length was actually fine, but the straps were cut for a much shorter girl. The seam that is supposed to go under the girls cut right across them. I could have zipped it up with some help, but it looked pretty terrible. It's a beautiful, fun dress, though and I'd love to try it in a 2 (or even a 4!).

Looks like a costume

I am a huge fan of Nicole Miller, but this was a fail. My first impression when it arrived was that it looked like a costume from a community theater. The fabric looked and felt cheap (so not like Nicole Miller!) and the gold belt detail looked cheesy. I gave it a shot and tried it on (maybe it looks better on?), but was still unimpressed. If you decide to rent this anyway, I would say it runs large for Nicole Miller. I usually wear a 2 in her dresses, but the 0L was the best fit.

Amazing color and fit- compliments all night!

This was a replacement dress when the one I ordered didn't meet my expectations. RTR's customer service was fantastic (as always) and they over-nighted me this beauty. Even the caterers and servers went out of their way to tell me how stunning I looked and how fantastic the dress was. My only complaint is that the 0L was too long: I am 5'8, wore 3'' heels, and the dress still pooled on the floor about 2 inches in the front and I had quite the train in the back. Because of the length, it was cumbersome to move in- and forget dancing! However, I highly recommend this gown for any formal event, and would rent again in a 0R. It has beautiful movement and a soft, secure fit- enough stretch to be comfortable and enough structure in the bust to stay up. It is elegant and the color is a show-stopper! If you find the dress falling down- wear a smaller size! My husband had to zip me up, but once I was in, it was a perfect fit and stayed up nicely.

Leeloo Dallas Multipass! Great LWD!

The one picture I have isn't loading, but when a dress reminds your girlfriends of Leeloo Dallas, I say it's a win! I wore this the night before my wedding for a girl's-night-out cocktail and mystery hour. I'm usually a 0 or 2 in dresses; I wore a 2 in this and it was VERY tight, but still comfortable. I probably could have worn the 4, but I was running out the door and the 2 fit well enough. The heavy fabric has a nice weight and REALLY sucks you in- perhaps a bit too much in the chest. I tried wearing this without a bra but it flattened the girls too much, so I opted for a strapless bra to help me out. A strapless bra IS possible in this dress, but I had to readjust throughout the night to keep it from showing through the cutout. A Nubra probably would have been better, but it was left out of my order- thankfully, it wasn't a necessity! Nude Hanky Pankys are a must; the fabric is not flimsy at all, but it's white and tight. All in all loved this dress, would rent again, trying the size 4 and a Nubra. Size up!

I loved this outfit! The 0R skirt fit perfectly at my natural waist and just brushed the ground with 1/4'' wedge sandals (I'm 5'8). The skirt was comfortable and not hot at all. Plus- pockets!! I felt effortless and unique for our rustic picnic wedding reception. I loved is so much, I used it again for our "day after" professional photo shoot (Amanda Kopp! She's amazing!).

Unique and elegant outfit for a beautiful picnic reception!

Loved this outfit! I was comfortable but still felt unique and glamorous for our rustic wedding reception. I went with the stylist review as far as sizing the top, as she and I have the same measurements. I found the size 4 was a good fit for the top (32C), but as the evening wore on, it became looser. The straps were a TAD long and I had to adjust them every now and then. If I rented again, I'd get the size 2 as a backup to see how it fit. I wore a lightly-padded strapless bra. I loved this look so much I rented it again for our "day after" professional photoshoot with Amanda Kopp- these cropped images are hers.

Cute and unique clutch for a night out!

Rented this "clutch" to pair with the Herve Leger "So Tealreal" dress. It is SUPER cute and looked great with the dress. It looks like it has more capacity than it does, and I do wish it had a little more room. With some careful arrangement, I was able to fit my smartphone, lip balm, lipstick, keys, credit card and a little cash. It has a gold chain for your shoulder, which I was grateful for as it's a little too wide and bulky to carry comfortably as a "true" clutch. Overall, loved this rental!

Engagement celebration

I rented this dress for a nice dinner and night out with a few close friends to celebrate my engagement. It was my first time renting a Herve Leger dress, and I was very pleased with the rental. The color was fabulous and looked amazing with my red hair and fair skin. The fit was TTS- I wear a 2 or 0 in dresses , but Smalls usually fit better than XS, and Herve was no exception. I could have zipped up the XS (with some help), but the S was more comfortable and plenty tight. The only thing I would have preferred is for the fabric around the shoulders to be a little more minimal- I have a small frame and can easily by overwhelmed by heavy fabric on top. Great dress, came in perfect condition. I paired it with the Diane von Furstenberg Zebra Clutch and a simple, long, gold pendant. Love RTR!

Meh

I did not end up wearing this dress because of fit and style. First the fit: I am 5'8, 120 lbs, and wear a 0 or 2 in dresses. I often have trouble with long sleeves because I wear small sizes, but I have long limbs. The sleeves on this dress were awkwardly short on me. It fit OK (maybe a little on the tight side) across the bust, but the waist and hips were loose in a boxy, unflattering way. The hem was a good length, hitting me just above the knee like the model in the photo. The style: I was expecting more bronze color and a brocade-like fabric for the front, and thicker sleeves. The sleeves were thin, jersey-like material that felt really cheap. The metallic front was not a heavy brocade or embroidery like I expected, but looked more "puckered" and was more silvery than bronze. In summary: this dress seems to have a lot of positive reviews, but it didn't fit me right and I wasn't impressed with the fabric quality.

Beautiful Color and Neckline

This dress has a beautiful, vibrant color and I was complimented on how it looked with my red hair. The neckline is really nice- not too low, but still sexy. I didn't care for the draping in front; it didn't look BAD, but I felt like it created curves where I didn't have them and didn't want them. Probably a plus if you want to camouflage "problem" areas, but not as flattering if you don't have anything to hide. That said, I DID love how long the skirt was, and how it fell. ( I am somewhere between "straight and narrow" and "hourglass"... probably a little more on the "straight & narrow" side.) I am 5'8, ~120 lbs, 32C, usually a dress size 0-2. I wore 3'' heels and the 0 Long was perfect.
