Unique and pictures don't do it justice!
This dress was great - It fit perfectly and I was able to wear a strapless plunge bra with it, which was an extra plus. I loved the sheer maxi for a hot summer wedding - it kept it fancy enough but cool and comfortable! I got tons of compliments on this dress!

Very flattering even though I was sick!
I was sick the day of the wedding I rented this for, but this dress still helped me feel as pretty as I could feel! I would say it was a little loose in the bust, although I'm usually a size 6 on top (32D). The size 6 fit but was a little too tight for my comfort, so I went with the 8 for ease of movement and the length. I didn't realize that the sheer panel was so high up, so I had planned to wear a strapless bra. That wasn't possible because the band is definitely visible, so I had to go without. It was fine, but I would have felt a little more comfortable with either a bra or tighter fit in the top. The rest of the dress fit great and was surprisingly comfortable!

Casual but fun!
I loved this dress. It was really comfortable and I felt great in it. The strategically placed cutouts were great. The stripes made it casual enough for a day dress, but it was easy to dress up for dinner at night, too. The fabric didn't have a lot of stretch, but it was true to size and, in my opinion, flattering and forgiving!

A nice dress
This wasn't my favorite rental, but I did like the dress. The fabric had enough stretch to be comfortable all day. It was true to size. The fabric was a little thick, which I appreciated, but it got a little hot in the southern Virginia heat. I could wear a normal bra with this without it showing in the cutouts. It was a little longer than I wanted, but overall, I was happy with this dress.

Perfect for a steeplechase
This was a really comfortable dress to wear all day. It's definitely a very vibrant pink! Almost fluorescent. I'm usually a size 6, so I ordered both a 6 and an 8. I ended up wearing the 6, but even that was a little roomy, especially in the waist and chest area.

Confidence!
I would NEVER normally wear a dress like this, but I looked through all the photos from other women who rented this on RTR and noticed that, no matter what body type, everyone looked amazing in it. That's exactly how I felt in it too! My husband wasn't crazy about the sheer bottom in the picture, but it's not as noticeable in real life, especially for an evening event. I'm 5'8" and ordered a 6R and 8L (there was no 6L). I'm usually a size 6, but I went with the 8 because of the length (regular was WAY too short, especially for the heels I wanted to wear) and because it offered a little more coverage in the chest area. I struggled a little with underboob. Tape kept it in place for the most part, but I did find myself fiddling with it on and off throughout the night. Even so, I was extremely happy with this dress. It made normally very conservative and unsure me feel confident.

Cute bridge between work and play!
I liked this dress - It was a little scratchy, but nothing too uncomfortable. I'm curvy in the hip/butt area, so this rode up a little bit on me. I wore this to work on my birthday with a blazer and then out for dinner and drinks without the blazer after work.

Glad I went for it
I've worn one other Herve dress before and, granted I weighed a little less then, but I felt like that one shaped a little better. Maybe I was just being critical of myself, but I felt a little lumpy in this without Spanx! Luckily they smoothed everything out. I got a lot of compliments on the dress and, although I planned to wear something that covered a little more, I'm glad I took the plunge and went with this one.

Pleasantly surprised
When I got the offer for a stylist surprise, I figured, why not try it? I felt lame, because I restricted the choices to necklaces and bracelets, not making it a total surprise. I got a sparkly black cuff (reviewed on the actual product, the photo's only on my phone!) It was noticable but not too gaudy or blingy. I would definitely try this again!

So unique!
I'm glad I read the fit reviews before renting! The 2 fit me but the sleeve area was a little tight and rubbed under my arms. I wore the 4 to work (because it was my birthday and I wanted to wear a cute dress all day even if I had to work!) I wore it with a blazer and it was a little longer than the 2. I wore the size 2 out to dinner and it was still fine. I'm glad I took the plunge and tried this dress out - It was cute, comfortable, and unique!

A little tight
It was really cute, but kind of tight, and I don't think I have a particularly huge wrist. I did notice some greenish gray color rubbing off on my skin under the cuff, but other than that, it was a cute statement accessory.
