If I had gone a size down (which wasn't available), I think I would have loved it!
Rented as an option for a formal affair. Might reconsider for a spring/summer event...in a smaller size.

Great for a summer wedding! Love E&J dresses.
I didn't end up wearing this to my event because my other choice was better for the night. It was super cute though and I would totally recommend/re-rent it for a spring/summer wedding or event.

LOVED. So many compliments.
If you're on the fence about this one, take a chance. I've never worn a dress with a cutout but it was definitely a great choice. Felt sexy and confident all night. Had many comments on it at my event, so many strangers came up to ask me where it was from/compliment me when we went out after, and my coworkers all gushed over it today. It's so comfortable. Love love love.

Loved this dress
I got compliments all night! Loved this dress. The XS fit fine, but I was worried it was too short so I went with the S. Would love to own it!

Not worn. Beautiful dress in person!
I had been eyeing this dress for a long time and looking for the perfect opportunity to rent it. It's beautiful in person, but the fit just wasn't right and it wasn't appropriate for my particular event. It definitely is short, but it was too tight around my hips. Maybe a size up would have been better, but it wasn't available at the time I rented. The sleeves were a little weird, too. I might give it another chance for a daytime event in the future!

Not worn. Not very flattering if there are any areas you want to hide.
The dress definitely looks better on the model! When I put it on, all I could focus on was that it looked like there were arrows pointing to my lady parts. Unfortunately, I was also dealing with "monthly bloat", and felt like that was being highlighted. The fabric was also itchy.

Very sexy LBD!
I actually loved the way that this dress looked on me, but it wasn't appropriate for the event. I've got an hourglass shape, so it was tighter on the hips than I was expecting. It would be a great dress for a bachelorette party or a sexy night out, but I didn't end up wearing it to my particular event.

Didn't look right...didn't wear.
Had high hopes to wear this dress for an early summer outdoor party, but it just didn't work out. It didn't look right on me in the hips.

Didn't fit right...didn't wear.
Unfortunately, I didn't get to wear this for my boyfriend's 30th birthday. It just didn't fit right on my hourglass frame. It was tight on my hips and too short. Beautiful fabric, though!

Ended up not wearing this one since it was my backup dress. When in doubt, order the smaller size!
Ordered this as a backup dress, and ended up not wearing it. I usually wear a 2-4, and got it in a 4. I think I would have liked it more if I tried it on in a 2. Very cute, but couldn't love it on me since it just seemed too big/long. Would consider ordering again in a smaller size!

I had my eye on this dress for a long time, and it did not disappoint!
I had my eye on this dress for a long time, and this May outdoor wedding was the perfect occasion. The color is beautiful, and the unique fabric looks great in person. It was comfortable and light, and I got compliments all night. I usually wear size 2-4, but the 2 was not available. The 4 fit great (and gave me more room for free wedding food/drinks!), but I think a 2 would have been the perfect size for this one. Wore it with a simple Kendra Scott necklace and black heels, then changed to boots for the reception. Definitely one of my RTR favorites!

A perfect LBD! More unique in person than in pictures. Perfect with a statement necklace.
I loved this dress. It was so comfortable! I got so many compliments on it. Not your typical little black dress. I would definitely rent it again for other events. Pair it with a fun necklace, and it is classy but sexy. I ordered a both a Small and Medium, but RTR did not have a Small, so they sent me a backup dress. I usually fit in Smalls and Mediums, but for this dress, the Medium was perfect. I did not wear a bra, but just know that the back is unique, so you would probably have to wear a strapless. Love it! Would totally recommend it!

Beautiful sequin ensemble - good for winter parties, but size up!
I didn't end up wearing this dress. RTR sent it to me since the backup size in my other dress was not available. It was beautiful in person - it's all sequins! However, the small was too small, and it was hard to get on without getting scratched up. The fabric is not forgiving due to the sequins, so I would recommend sizing up!

Fun necklace that stands out!
It doesn't sit as flat as I thought it would from the picture. It's a little more bulky in person, which might have changed my mind about it if I had been wearing a different dress. It went perfect with the look I was going for though!

Fits like a glove. Fitted, but very comfortable. I didn't feel like I was having to suck myself in all night. I love this dress!

Fun dress for a wedding!
Great dress - I felt that it ran slightly big. Didn't fit in the waist the way I expected it to. Great pattern! The 2 sizes I got didn't even have the same pattern which made it seem really unique.

Perfect dress for a Valentines Weekend event!
I rented this dress and another one for my first RTR experience. This wasn't my first choice, but I ended up loving it once I had it on. I got so many compliments throughout the night! It was very comfortable and hid the post-free-buffet/free-drinks belly pooch through the end of the night. It was a perfect length, fit well in the hips, and was perfect for my bust. The only thing I didn't like is that the zipper in the back and the top of the neck seemed to be too big or stick out. Loved the dress and highly recommend it!

Great fit! Didn't wear, but will rent again!
I rented this and another dress for my first RTR experience. I didn't end up wearing this dress, but I'm glad I tried it because I was very curious to see the fit of a Herve Leger dress since I have seen so many that I like on the site. As expected, it was very form fitting, but not uncomfortable. However, part of the reason I decided not to wear the dress is that we were going to an event with a huge buffet and free drinks...so... I didn't want to be self-conscious of a full belly all night. :) When trying to decide between dresses, friends thought the dress looked too long on me. I got a S and a M, and the M almost seemed smaller than the S! The S fit like a glove without being suffocatingly tight. All in all, even if I didn't end up wearing it for this particular weekend, I would definitely rent it again.
