Runs big
It's cute! The metallic threads are itchy. It runs a size big, and RTR was so kind in keeping me swap it quickly. I'm normally a Veronica Beard 4, and I needed a 2 in this.

Wanted to wear everyday
Normally I'd order a small, but only an XS was available. Thankfully, that worked great! The smaller size would not have worked tucked into low waisted bottoms because there are side slits. The tightest place was the bottom of the sleeves, where I could barely button - and I have tiny wrists. The artistry was gorgeous. I hate to send it back.

Shear
Be prepared that this is shear. Nude, smooth underwear does hide.

Beautiful
I wore to a black tie wedding as my ceremony dress. The draped side train would have been hard to dance in, but this was perfect for the ceremony and photos. The chest was slightly too big. I wore it braless because it’s essentially built in. Soft lining in the chest. Everything stays put, so no fussing while wearing.

Beautiful variety in stones, type and shape. They are even prettier in person. Perfect color match to my Badgley Mischka gown.

Gives great shape
I’m a 6 and rarely a 4, ordered the large based on reviews but think I might have been better off in the medium. The dress has nice shape so it stayed put despite being too big in the chest (and I’m 32DD) with extra room in the front middle. It still looked great. I would own it and tailor it if it were more affordable.

Prettier denim
I sized up because Veronica Beard is sometimes small, but I could have also worn my usual size. Very cute upgrade for denim shorts.

Wore it twice
It’s quite fitted through the body and needs the right bra to have smooth lines. Spot on the trend of base+silky wrap.

So amazing I bought it
No photo can do I’m this dress justice to how it looks in person. Lucky for me, the fit was perfect everywhere. The placement of the embroidery is eye catching and sexy.

Didn’t zip
I’m a 6 sometimes 4 and I could not zip the last two inches without worrying, and so I could not wear it. I can tell the fit is amazing if you can zip it. The rest of the body fit great.

Curvy girls can wear Icons
I’m so glad I rented these and found out I can wear the Icon cut jeans. I have a big butt, thighs and smaller waist, and love the fit. I am between sixes and went with the upper size. They stretch out quite a bit over the course of a couple hours. I had to lay down to button then the first time, and now they are a little loose. Flashback to the 90s.

Perfect for formal professional attire
The fit was so perfectly TTS for formal professional, as in just loose enough through the body. In a date dress, I might have called it loose for the size. I paired with a suit jacket, gold and heels and wore it to an international conference in D.C. where I was a speaker. This dress added confidence for being perfect to the occasion! It was long enough to sit on stage without showing too much leg or having to tug or adjust.

So great I kept it
Herve Leger is one of the reasons I tell new friends to get a RTR membership - everyone should try wearing one at least once. I loved this one so much I kept it. This one is less firmness than some of HL, but has all the magical powers for a figure.

Gorgeous color
I got lucky and was the first to wear the jacket. The zippers were still wrapped in tissue. The green is really pretty and closer to jewel toned than I expected, so I didn’t wear it with the brown skirt I planned. The sleeves are exactly the right amount of fitted in the lower arm and wrist, abs not too long. Some leather jackets have too much material near my hands and gets in the way. This was perfect. It zipped comfortably.
