Runs big!
This dress is really pretty - a nice thick material and would definitely be flattering if the fit is right. I am 5'8 and about 130lbs with a small upper body. I was swimming in the small - the arms were really baggy on me and way too long. It was also baggy in my lower back and around my chest (I am pretty flat chested). Just be aware if you aren't busty, you might be out of luck in this dress. Sad to have to return it - RTR was great about getting me a different dress ASAP, as usual.

Loved it!
Loved this jumpsuit so much. The back detail is beautiful. It fit me as expected and it was comfortable. I added a belt to break up the black. Only bad thing is you need a bathroom buddy to help get you in and out of it. Worth it though!

Beautiful colors
The colors in this dress are amazing. It's like a jersey kind of fabric though and I rented it for a barn wedding so I felt out of place in it. Would be perfect for a beach resort wedding or something of that nature. Fit was flattering and dress was long enough for me to wear some heels with it.

Too tight
Maybe this is obvious given the designer but this dress was just too tight and too short on me. I've rented other HL dresses and not had a size issue. I didn't end up wearing this.

Cute and comfy!
This romper was exactly what I wanted for a night out. It was comfortable and cute. I'm on the taller side so it was a little short but not too short. Can be dressed up or down- I wore it for a night out and didn't feel funny about it. Great rental!

Meh
Not my most exciting RTR rental to date. Ran smaller than I expected and was really short on me. The fabric was kind of heavy. I wore it but only because I didn't have anything else for that night.

Great colors
This dress was way prettier in person than I expected. I got this as a backup style when the primary size in my original dress rental (different style) was not able to be delivered to me. The backup size of my original rental fit so I didn't end up wearing this. The top was a little big on me and usually I can get away with a small so I'd say it runs big. I'm very small chested though so if you're not you may not have that problem. The skirt also ran a tiny bit large. The colors are way more vibrant in person than in the photo. I'd rent this and wear it as my first choice next time!

Beautiful color and great fit. This dress was comfortable and flattering. All around a great choice. The top runs a little big if you are small chested like me. Also, can't do a bra with this because of the holes on top.

Beautiful, cool dress!
Loved this dress so much. The top and bottom are true to size. The skirt doesn't stretch at all but I wanted it to stay high on my waist so more fitted worked for me. The top was not scratchy at all. I got lots of compliments- highly recommend!

Stunning but odd fit
This dress is beyond gorgeous. RTR emailed me prior to my scheduled delivery to let me know that my primary dress size would not be available, so I was only able to try on the larger backup size I ordered which did not work for me. I was surprised by the fit- it seemed to fit me around my waist, stomach and butt but literally fell off of my shoulders. This isn't a problem I usually have so I would say if you have narrow shoulders and are small chested, beware. I'm not sure whether my usual size would have worked since it didn't come.

Pretty Bridal Shower Dress!
I wore this for one of my bridal showers and got a ton of compliments on it. The top part is so pretty with the sheer lace. The dress runs true to size but it is long, so if you are on the shorter side, beware that it may hit below your knees! Lovely dress!

Beautiful Wedding Purse!
This little purse was perfect to compliment my vintage bridal look. Just a touch of glamorous without being over the top. It is a beautiful blushy neutral color with gold hardware. I had enough room to fit my iPhone 5, powder compact, small powder brush and lipstick. Would definitely recommend this bag!

Felt so sparkly and special in this green beauty!
I wore this dress for my rehearsal dinner. I loved everything about it! It was a really flattering fit and was surprisingly comfortable to wear considering it's all sequins. It is definitely on the longer side so probably a better fit for taller gals unless you are looking for a dress to hit below the knees. The bust area is a little loose for flat chested girls like me, but nothing a padded bra couldn't fix. The arms also might not be a super tight fit if you have skinny arms. One tip for wearing sequins - be careful if you have long hair. I had my hair down and it was getting caught in the sequins all night. Otherwise, wonderful dress and perfect for my special evening!

Cute little bag!
I rented this bag for my mom to use at my wedding. It was perfect for her. Simple, small, but easy to hold and big enough to carry absolute necessities. It was a little worn looking but nothing you would notice in pictures or from a distance. Has a pretty sparkle to it that was an unexpected surprise!

Stunning Bridal Earrings!
When these arrived and I opened the box, I was a little concerned that these might be too big. But after putting them on, I fell in love! These earrings were just what I was looking for to complete my "vintage" look. They are so beautiful! They are a little heavy but not crazy heavy, I was able to wear them for 12+ hours without wanting to take them off. All of my guests kept telling me how much they sparkled during the ceremony. You won't regret ordering these!

BEST ROMPER
I am seriously obsessed with this romper. It was SO fun to wear and made me feel so special on the last night of my bachelorette weekend. I was torn between the size 0 and size 2 (I rented this as an "additional style" so no back up size) and I went with the 2 because I'm tall-ish and I was afraid the torso would be too short in the 0. I think I probably made the right decision. The 2 was definitely big in the bust as other reviewers said but you can hike it up with the halter strings and there's a black underlay that will be tight up against even a small chest. The gold part is a little baggy on top but I actually think that's how it's meant to be worn. Also, for those concerned about chafing from the sequins, I didn't have a problem at all! This was just such a fun romper, I wish I could think of an excuse to rent and wear it again. Made me feel like a star all night!

So fun and flirty!
I wore this dress for one of the nights out on my bachelorette weekend. It was SO easy to wear - super comfortable. Could wear a regular bra if you have a racerback kind. I rented the 0 and the 2 and definitely could have worn either. I went with the 0 because I was happy to have it a little shorter and a little more fitted. The colors are great and the dress is super cute. Would definitely rent this one again!

Sexy, Flattering and Fun!
I wore this for my bachelorette party. The cut is SUPER flattering. Allows you to wear a regular bra. I wished that it was a little shorter, it nearly went down to my knees and I'm on the taller side. As all Herve dresses though, it really sucks you in and makes you look and feel great. It was perfect for a special night out with my girls!

Great Black Tie Dress!
Wore this for a black tie optional wedding. It was a great choice. The fabric is very stretchy so you can likely get away with your smaller of two sizes. The extra layer underneath the lace smooths it out and makes you feel and look great! I am about 5'8" and with 3" heels, the long was the perfect length. You can wear a regular bra with this if you are OK pulling it off your shoulders just a bit. Got lots of compliments and felt like a million bucks in this one!

Wish I owned this!
Used this at a summer Cape Cod wedding. So perfect! I wish I owned this purse. It's a great size - large enough to be practical but small enough that it's not a nuisance to carry around/set on a table during cocktail hour. The leather is super soft. Loved it.

Love this print, weird fit though.
This dress has a strange fit. I usually wear a 0-2 in US sizes. This dress runs super small on top. I had to wear the 10 to get it zipped, but I have a tiny chest so I didn't totally fill in the cups. I paired the dress with cowboy boots for a Texas wedding and got compliments despite the less than ideal fit. I absolutely love the pattern of the dress and the look, just wish the fit made more sense.

Super cute!
This dress is great. I love the fabric, pattern, and one shoulder strap. As other reviews stated, it runs tight in the chest. I am usually a 0 or 2 depending on designer and I rented a 0 despite the warnings in other reviews. I was able to wear it (I am very small chested) but it was definitely very tight under my arms and I wished I had some extra room. Clearly, that was my own fault. I found the length of the dress to be great, I was able to wear flats. I would definitely rent this again, next time in the correct size.

I wore this to a nice dinner date. The color is amazing! I found the fit to be true to size. It was a little short when sitting down but otherwise a perfect fit and a perfect dress for the night. I would rent this again.

gorgeous dress!
I wore this dress for a beachy wedding in San Diego. It is beyond beautiful. I found the dress to run mostly true to size, if anything a little big. I rented the long and definitely wish I had ordered the regular length. I am 5'8" and even with 3 inch heels I had probably 3 extra inches of fabric dragging around all night. I would definitely rent this dress again, next time in the regular length.

Cute and fun beach dress!
I wore this to a wedding in Cape Cod. It was perfect. It's definitely not a super fancy dress - it's cotton and has pockets. I also found the colors to be not quite as bright as described, not sure if it's just because the dress has been worn or if that's how it was supposed to be. Overall it's a super fun, cute dress and really perfect for something beachy. I rented it with the Lily Pulitzer Summer Chic purse and I thought it matched perfectly!

Nice dress!
Wore this to a wedding rehearsal dinner. This dress is very nice. It's nothing terribly exciting. It looks really dark in color on the model but it's actually a deep midnight blue. Some of my friends thought it might look a little purple. I found it to run large, but a little short. The top needed to be pinned or it literally flapped open. I wasn't a huge fan of the tie on the one shoulder, reminded me of something you'd see on a bathing suit. Overall, it was a nice dress, but I wouldn't rent it again.

Beautiful Party Dress!
I rented this as a bridesmaid dress for a wedding. I found it to run a little small. I usually order 0/2 as my two sizes, and in this I rented the 2/4 and though I ended up wearing the 2, the 4 would have worked as well. I was REALLY happy with this dress. It is a beautiful, rich, blue color. The material is super soft and expensive feeling. It doesn't wrinkle as easily as most dresses with a chiffon layer. It is super flattering, and flows beautifully. I have nothing bad to say about this dress - definitely a great one for any spring/summer wedding or other fun event!

Not as long as expected but beautiful dress!
I received only one of the two sizes that I ordered in this dress. The size fit, but the length seemed to be wrong (I ordered the long and it was much shorter than I expected). I called RTR and they were great about getting me the right size and length by the following day. Unfortunately, the second dress seemed to be exactly the same length as the first. I'm assuming that they were actually the "long" version of the dress, but it was much shorter than I expected based on the reviews. I am 5'8 and was only in 3 inch heels and the dress was probably 1.5 inches off the ground. I wore it anyway and it fit and felt great otherwise. The material is stretchy so if you want a super tight, glove like fit, I'd say you can definitely size down. I am small chested so I can't speak to the room in that area. I found it to be comfortable and received a lot of compliments. Not sure I'd rent it again because of the length problem, but if it had been long enough on me, I definitely would have!

Fun and classy!
Loved this dress. As some of the other reviews say, it was a little wrinkled when it came to me. The material is cotton. This could definitely work as a sundress. I wore it with a cropped blazer and a necklace like the one in the model's picture, and I felt like it looked dressy enough for a rehearsal dinner at a country club. It definitely runs a little big, specifically, it has extra room in the chest area which is the only fitted part of the dress. If you are small on top definitely size down! It also is pretty long, so if you are shorter, be aware that it might hit your knees. I would definitely rent this again!

Beautiful Holiday Dress
I wore this dress to a holiday-themed wedding in late November. The color and shine is gorgeous! The fabric is a little stiff. I found the dress to run true to size. I rented a 0 and a 2. I ended up wearing the 0 because I am small chested and the 2 was a little big on top. It was a little tight in the hips and the fabric did bunch a little funny just at the top of my hips, but it wasn't a deal breaker. I'm almost 5'8 and the dress was PLENTY long enough, hit my legs where it does on the model. Overall, it was a great dress and I received many compliments on it!
