Great work dress
Loved this dress with flats for work. Nice shape - flowy but somehow still slimming. I'd wear it heels for dinner

So versatile
Originally rented this dress for a date night, but I ended up wearing it all weekend - first with a glam necklace and heels. Then with tights, cowboys boots, and a long necklace to dress it down. Almost kept it

Conservative work dress
This was one of my favorite work rentals. The neckline and length are conservative but the cut is still style and interesting. The exposed zipper is a nice detail that makes it feel a little fresher, too. The fabric is really soft, pockets are appreciated, and it's basically a blank slate for whatever accessories you want to add

Perfect dress for a conservative work environment. Good length, good construction, worked well for what I needed

Dress is worn out
It was hard to give this dress a review because it wasn't in great condition when it got to me. I rented a Size M. The hem had fallen on the right side & the lining was longer than the hem on the left side (which sometimes happens after dry cleaning maybe?). The style of the dress was great, but the condition of my Medium was disappointing. Material was very thick & I didn't wear a bra (although prob could have worn a racerback)

Great work option
Love the fit of this dress & the high quality material. Conservative enough for work but the bright color still makes it fun

Unexpected standout
Wore this to my anniversary dinner. Very sexy - the dress is short & it's tailored nicely so it doesn't feel like a boxy suit jacket. I didn't expect to like this as much as I did; nice deviation from the typical cocktail dress

Perfect work dress
This dress was great for work. The top was fitted but the bottom didn't cling at all. Super flattering. I'm 5'8" and the dress was still an appropriate length for a conservative environment. I paired it with nude pumps & a statement necklace

Cute pattern
This dress was really light & totally comfortable. Plus, I got a lot of compliments on the pattern. The only drawback (for a work dress) was the length. I'm 5'8" so it was a little short for work plus the slit made it seem even shorter. I paired with tights & boots & hoped for the best. It was a really great dress though; just maybe not for my conservative work environment

Comfy
Wore this a couple of times with jeans or black pants. It's a great "cheat" if you want to be comfortable but still feel dressed up. My husband thought it was too baggy/boxy, and it's not a sexy top, but I thought it was great

Didn't love this one
I have a short torso so the half-stripe thing hit at an unflattering place on the the top of my hips. I also thought the sleeves should have been a touch longer or sleeveless. These fall somewhere in between

So versatile
Wore this to work with pumps & it was perfect. Then I wore it to a Christmas party with scrappy heels & a fancy clutch. This was one of my favorite rentals so far

Sexy
This dress was a bit too revealing for me to wear to a wedding or any other special event. However I did wear it on a date with my husband & he loved it! Fits true to size

Fun work dress
Wore this to work. Was surprised by the very thick fabric (maybe neoprene?), but it fit nicely. My only complaint was that the seams were REALLY itchy, maybe bc they were starting to fray after too many wears. Great pattern though

So flattering
Loved the fit of this dress. The A-line skirt was so flattering & a nice break from the usual Herve silhouette. Would rent this again

Too low
The color of the dress was great & the Long was a perfect length (jumpsuits are never long enough for me). Because I have a short torso, the top part just didn't work. The V of the V-neck came below my bra & even with fashion tape, it was tough to make it work. Would be perfect for someone with longer torso
Blue Purdy Jumpsuit

Cutout placement not right for me
The color of this dress looks great in person & the fabric is thick but it has stretch (think wetsuit material). However the cutouts were not in the right place on my body. I was a little nervous about "underboob" peeking out.

These were perfect. Simple enough to wear other great accessories & light enough that they didn't bother me at all!

Too snug
I ended up not wearing this dress bc the a stomach hips were just too tight. I'm a size 6 & tried to wear the S bc M wasn't available. I like Herve dresses but I prob needed the Aline to start a little higher for my body type

Perfect
Great dress for bachelorette in Nashville. Super comfortable & I loved having sleeves since it was a little chilly at night

This one was a "miss"
Was an awkward length & my fiancé said it looked like pajamas, which I thought was probably a little harsh, but something about the neckline did make it seem more casual. Plus it was a little too matronly even for a conservative work fundraiser

Great derby dress
Rented this for a derby party & the color is a "sunflower" yellow. Ran a little big and the V in front is a lite revealing if you're busty. I had to keep making sure my bra wasn't creeping up in the back, but wasn't too much of a problem

Wore this to a black tie event with colleagues. I didn't want anything revealing or flashy and this dress was perfect. Very understated and elegant. Flattering fit

wasn't for me
This dress looks great on some people in the pictures, but I have a really short torso, so it didn't fall properly. If you are very straight & narrow, I can see how the design would be flattering because it would give you some serious shape. If you have a short torso, and you're curvy, you might wan to look at another dress...

cute dress but did work for me
The material was thinner than I expected & it "poofed" out a little at the top of my hips, making them look larger than I wanted. Loved the pattern though

cute dress but did work for me
loved the color & the fabric was pretty stiff (so holds structure). The shape wasn't right for me though since I have a really short torso... My hips were hipping where waist was supposed to be. I wish it had worked though! I've seen it on a lot of other people & it looks adorable on them!

Great dress
I rented this for a wedding & it looked great! The material was much darker than it seems in the picture, so check out the pics that other women have posted. I also rented rented one of the suggested gold necklaces, and everything worked out really nicely.
