Look fine in sequence and color!
I wore this dress for my company holiday party. It was a refreshing look compared to all the LBD's that usually come out as a go too. I ordered a medium for the length but I do wish I sized down. It ties like a wrap dress so if lately your jeans are a little loose, size down. It will save you the hassle of holding the tux-like neckline due to the tie not being able to be tighter. The material is very comfortable and those sequins will be holding tight, all night long! It is a fabulous dress if you want to dance and have a good time. You'll make a statement no matter where you decide to show this chic look!

Future Forecast: One of my favorite rentals
I was going to a concert and wanted to just look super chic with a little edge and this dress fit that to a T. I wore the large because the medium was a little too short for my 5'9 frame but the large fit perfectly. It's runs a little small length wise but just size up and there won't be a huge difference of fit on your waist, chest or hips. I wore spank because I wanted to keep it tight but you really don't have too in this dress. I received a lot of compliments on the dress and am going to be really sad when I give it back but it just enhanced a really fun evening. Great rental, would recommend checking it out!

Birthday Babe
I have always wanted to rent a Herve and what better occasion then my 25th birthday. I ordered a small and medium according to the reviews saying sometimes the dress runs large. They both looked amazing. I went with the medium because I wanted a little space in the dress. I didn't have to wear any spanx but I choose too because I wanted to look like Jlo, lol! The dress is so comfortable and keeps everything really tight. My only complaint was the top of the dress kept on sliding down. I definitely wouldn't have had that problem in the small but it is what it is. It was HARD to send that dress back but I know I'll be renting another Herve as soon as I find another occasion for it. Great dress, you won't regret it!

Looking like the prettiest gem in the room
I ended up wearing the 6L because the 4L was really dull and dirty. The fit is extremely comfortable and the type of dress that EVERY WOMAN LOOKS GORGEOUS IN! It runs large so def order a backup size down. I wore it to my sororities formal and was constantly praised for how beautiful I looked. The 6L was definitely long. I'm 5'9 and wore 5 inch heels and it still touched the ground. If you want a dress that different from the rest, definitely rent this one. Another satisfied customer!

Why did I have to give this back?
I have loved my RTR experience since my first time in December of 2013, but this dress was the first one i never wanted to give back. The color was stunning, the length was perfect, the fit on the bodice made me stand up straight and the material of the dress was so comfy. It was the perfect fit!

My LBD was such a hit, I caught the bouquet!
A tall girl like me definitely needs to be careful with a short hem like this! I was pulling my dress down a bit through out the night but the color is so eye-catching, especially with the pattern. Everyone loved it and complemented me the entire night on how stunning the dress was. RTR, once again you did amazing!

My last sorority recruitment ended with this beautiful knockout that caught everyone's eye!
Once again, I should have orders a smaller size but the dress worked! The neckline is what catches everyone's eye. It makes your décolletage look very pretty and something as simple as a silver necklace just added to the beauty. It's a dress that can definitely show your curves if you order the correct size. The fabric felt nice and safe. It ended up being a perfect dress to say goodbye to recruitment season in. Another almost perfect RTR experience

Perfect for my sorority recruitment! Every girl I talked to, LOVES IT
I wish I had ordered the dress in a smaller size but nevertheless it was a beautiful dress that really made my skin color pop! I was complimented all night on how beautiful it was. It was very comfortable and the hem on the bottom really made a difference. I was scared it would be too short but that hem, made it perfect! Even to this day, women who ended up in different sororities remember me in that dress! Another amazing RTR experience!

Lady in red, turning heads!
This has been my third time using Rent the Runway, and by far, this was the best rental. The dress is stunning. The color just pops in person and in pictures. The fit of the dress is perfect and tight on the bust and midsection but still allows you to wear a strapless bar with it, which allows you to stop worrying about pulling up you dress every five seconds to avoid a wardrobe malfunction. You won't have to worry about that in this dress. Because I'm 5'8, I rented a 8L and it was perfect. I wore 5 inch heels and the gown just grazed across the floor. I was receiving compliments from everyone about how beautiful I looked in the dress. I even received text messages the next day from people who weren't in attendance, complimenting my look. It's a dress thats sexy and fun and will make you stand out from the crowd. If you want to be the center of attention, then this should be in your shopping cart!

A great touch to an outfit!
This sparkler helped create the most perfect formal dress. It added little sparkle to my dress and was spacious enough to hold my phone, credit card, cash, lipgloss, and ID. A great little number!

Helped my New Years Eve, sparkle!
The dress is awesome! It fits well in the arms and was not uncomfortable whatsoever. I was worried about the length because I am 5'8 but it hits at a sexy part of the leg and does not ride up. I spent my night laughing and dancing, instead of worrying about my dress riding up! A great dress for those who want to add some sparkle to their night.

The look on my dates face when I walked into my sororities formal! It made it all worth it!
This was my first RTR experience so I was a little worried but what a fantastic experience. What caught my eye about this dress was the beautiful color. That tangerine can brighten up any skin tone. I also loved that I would be able to wear a bra with the dress as well so I would have to worry about any wardrobe malfunctions. The dress is very true to size, a little tight under the bust but still extremely comfortable. The length of the dress is perfect. It glides across the ground, which was great because I wasn't worried about constantly stepping on the hem. It was an amazing dress for my sororities formal and helped create an unforgettable night! I'm a true believer in RTR! I'm going to be a customer for life!
