Stunning!
Perfect fit for my hourglass shape. I have Broad shoulders, a small waist and full hips but the dress flattered it all. A week later people were still talking about the gorgeous dress.

Subtle show stopper
Classy dress worn to a bridal shower that garnered many compliments without overshadowing the bride. Needed to wear a strapless bra.

Never have I received so many compliments on a dress. I felt fabulous and dress gave me killer confidence. Fit extremely close.

Sophisticated and pretty
I wore this dress in a 42R because my original size wasn't available. I added a belt to help cinch in the waist for a more flatter fit and added padding to the nu bra to help fill it out but it was still swimming on me. The top is not as deep of a V as it seems on the model. I also had trouble working this dress to look right in photos because I usually don't wear such slim skirts. I would not rent this dress again but I did feel beautiful in the gown.

Sexy and dressy but classy and casual.. perfect date outfit
Loved this look and one I could easily wear again and again. Downside: The back closes with a series of clasps which can be tedious to those dressing alone. Also made me fear trips to the ladies room! I really thought I would never be able to get dressed again.

Don't be deceived! The dress is smokin'
A rather unassuming dress in pictures and on the hanger, I almost didn't even try it on. As soon as I did... WOW! The dress is not for everyone. Deep v that needs double sided tape to keep the girls in and a wrap on the skirt that with one misstep can quickly have you showing more than most people would in public. But it gave me killer confidence and I turned heads all night at a charity event I had to attend alone. I want to own this dress. Loved it so much and made me feel so fab.

Terrible fit in the bust
I LOVE Herve dresses and the M always fit perfect in other styles.. but this one did not fit in the bust at all. The band was literally cutting at the middle of my boobs. Fortunately, I had planned to wear a jacket anyway so it didn't show. The white dress was perfect for winter. I felt super sexy wearing it (as long as I had a jacket on. I never even tried to take it off).

Sparkles, fitted and pretty.. perfect holiday party gown
Dress was beautiful, but extremely short. Even if flat shoes with the long cut, it still didn't hit the ground. RTR really needs to start cutting the long gowns with much more length. I also didn't love the train at the back. Otherwise, I had fun wearing it and felt great!

Shows off your figure. Works best if you are one consistant size all over
The dress is stunning and really will show off your shape. I felt beautiful in it. However, it didn't fit me as well as I would have liked. I have an hour glass shape. 36D chest, 26" waist, 40" hips, which is where the dress clings the most. So, I had to wear the 10L to get over my hips, but that left it baggy in the midsection. The dress was also super short, even in the long. I am only 5'10 but the dress didn't hit the floor even barefoot. (I had planned to wear flats already. Dresses are never long enough). All that said, I would still wear it again. It is just a beautiful gown.

Pretty dress
It was a very lovely dress and was in perfect condition. Classy and sophisticated, but a bit unremarkable compared to others on the site (which is what I wanted as I wore it for a family dinner and evening at the theatre.) The slip in the dress did not fit well in the bust, but paired with a black bra no one could tell the difference.

Didn't blow me away
I had lots of issues with this dress. The fabric combination I found odd.. very heavy on the bottom. But more than that, I couldn't wear this dress. I ordered my normal sizes of an 8 and 10, but even the 8 was huge on me. (I would suggest ordering the dress to fit in the natural waist. I have a size 4-6 waist, but 8-10 in the hips) The dress was also extremely short, which I would have rectified by wearing black tights had the dress fit. (I rented this for a family evening at the theatre, if it's for a date or party, the length may not matter to you.)

The first thing the bride said was "Wow! That dress is gorgeous!" Although it wasn't nearly as pretty as her! One can't (and never should!) compete with a bride :)
This dress was the best dress I have ever worn and made me feel so beautiful. I was very nervous about wearing a dress that was so form fitting, as I have a very curvy figure (tiny waist, but wide hips) I was so worried I originally planned to wear two pairs of spanx. However, the dress just made me feel fabulous. It was in excellent condition to start, and then it was flattering and looked great without any shapewear. It was almost like shapewear itself! I got many compliments, and now I can't wait to rent another Herve!

This dress is as beautiful in person as it is in the photos. However, I ended up not wearing the dress because it was only available in a 10, which ended up being too large. (I'm usually a size 8.)

This dress is just beautiful. It looks a bit worn when you inspect it up close, but from afar no one would have been able to see the imperfections. Unfortunately, there was a mix up with my sizes and I didn't get the 8L that I needed. The 10L was a bit large, but could have worn by using fashion tape to hold it in the right place.

Very dramatic look
Gorgeous dress, however, too over the top for the company holiday party I was attending. This is a dress I would rent again in a heartbeat for the right occasion. The dress did run big. I usually just barley fit into an 8, but this fit comfortably (and even big in some areas.) I also had the 10L which was just huge all over.

I love this dress! It is so sexy and fun, I got so many compliments. I would caution that all 3 layers are very sheer though. As for size, I thought it ran a bit small if you go off of the RTR conversion chart. If you know your Italian sizing, it is true to size.

This dress did not work for me at all. I had to go up a size to get it to even kind of fit around my hips, but then the top was gaping and baggy. I was not able to wear this dress and ended up having to go out and buy something to wear at the last minute. I will probably never rent/buy a Christian Siriano again, because from all that I've heard, he is not forgiving to women with hips.

Fabulous dress. Absolutely loved it. I am usually a size 8, but was squeezing into the 10 for this dress. There is no way I could have fit into an 8. The dress stayed up nicely; didn't slip down at all. The train was a bit difficult as people kept stepping on it all night, but just something to keep in mind before you rent.

LOVE this dress. Everyone else did too. The dress is a bit short, and undergarments can be a problem. You'll definitely need the Hollywood tape to hold it in the right place, but I would rent this dress again in a heartbeat.

Loved this dress for my brother's engagement party. It's very loose fitting and has an elastic waist band, so I could have easily worn a size smaller. The material looks a bit sheer in daylight, and the back is very see through. You'll either need to be comfortable having a bra show (or wear none at all) or find a skin toned cami. Would definitely rent again. Got many compliments!
