meh. not worth wearing.
This dress hugged me in the wrong spots and was loose in the wrong spots. Didn't end up wearing the size L.

Loved this, but it's very long
The fit on my body was spot on, but I'm 5'3" and even with some 2" booties the dress would have dragged. So instead I knotted up the front and back. Still looked really clean and with the knots modern.

Liked the material and fit for my arms, chest, and neckline, but less so around the hips.

Felt sexy, held in ;) and ready to dance!
You really can't go wrong with Hervé! The boyfriend loved the dress probably even more than I did. I'm bustier, and my bra was peeking out a bit. Once I realized it was peeking out, I used a lil Fashion Tape to keep the dress covering my bra and again the dress was perfect!!

Fun, statement piece!
Fun statement necklace! The pink of the stones(?) came through beautifully against the mint dress I wore. It laid flat, balanced and wasn't heavy.

Loved the lace and rich mint color!
Loved the full skirt and rich mint color of the lace!! I wore this to the dress rehearsal/night-before-the-wedding party. It was at a bar so I was a bit overdressed, but absolutely loved the dress!

Ladylike and fun to walk and dance in!
I felt beautiful, tall (which I'm not!), and so ladylike! It was great for the wedding and comfortable. Tans look great with the color of the dress.

Unwearable. Gemstones were missing or obviously glued back in crooked.
Looked sparkly and glamorous from afar, but unwearable upon close inspection. Returned to RTR for a refund; the customer service was accommodating (as long as I sent them pictures of the issue areas and mailed back the item).

Simple, different, and beautiful.
Darn. Wish I had a picture because this really was just as pictured and wonderful. --So nice that afterwards I went out and found a similar cuff to own!

This is a pretty, elegant dress, but not super flattering.
I have a veryyy slight hour glass, but do have a nice pair of ladies. This dress ran large and felt a bit long, given I'm only 5'3". I paired it with high wedges, which helped. The dress was fine for the wedding and a rich wine color, but I would've preferred if it were a touch sexier.

Per usual, great herve leger
If you've worn his bandage dresses before, then you know that this will hug your body like no other. Some of the styles can pancake/flatten the girls. This dress doesn't do that. Woowoo. This is an awesome dress. Also, I have basically no hips, but the dress creates the illusion of some.
