Beautiful
I it bed this dress for a semi formal party and even a date night. A grit helps. But just be confident wearing it.

Just ok
The denim was a bit stiff and made it difficult to wear casually. But I found it wasn’t easy to dress up. Overall a cute idea, but difficult to execute.

Striking without calling too much attention
This dress from a distance is very subtle, but when people, especially fashionistas, get closer and notice the distinct Missoni pattern, its a show stopper. This was perfect for me as I wore it to a work picnic where I needed to be comfortable, confident, but also not stick out or call too much attention to myself or my outfit. I paired it with a denim jacket, tights, and some tall brown leather boots--it was perfect. While both sizes fit, I went with the larger size as it was longer, and slightly more comfortable. Had a been wearing this for a date night, I may have gone with the smaller/tighter/more revealing dress.

Not my favorite Herve
This didn't fit like the other HL dresses I've rented. Neither the small or medium I ordered seemed to fit right or compliment my body....Maybe it has to do with the higher neckline or the wave pattern on the bias???? Not really sure, but not my favorite rental.

Flattering and comfortable
The dress definitely runs large--order down at least one size. However, when in the right size, the dress is very complimentary.

Comfortable cocktail attire!
I wore this dress for a Fall cocktail party for my husband's work. It was different from all the little black dresses, comfortable, and yet sexy without being too revealing. I felt like it hit a nice balance between being high end with the silk, but casual with the maxi like shape. It was easy to move, eat and drink, and I received many compliments. I would love to own this dress! Fit and color notes: Overall, the dress runs a little small. I usually wear a 2 or a 4. I thought the 4 fit me in the waist with being just a tad snug. However, the more fitted construction helped the top stay up without a bra. I worried it would lack support for my natural 34D chest BUT it was great (and my cleavage looked amazing!). Also, at 5'7" with 3 inch heels the dress Still skimmed the ground a bit. Wearing higher heels, or bring slightly taller may be helpful. The color is much more orange and grey than pictured. It still worked for me, but was a little shocking when I opened the box.

Beautiful dress and great design!
Wire this to a Jack and Jill baby shower in Chicago. It was perfect for the event and the weather--helped me stay nice and cool!! I received many compliments on it and it was easy to wear. That said, I think I would have been more comfortable sizing up to the 4. I felt the 2 was small in the bust and almost fit like a petite.

Not for large busts or broad shoulders
I loved the pattern of this dress and that you could dress it up or down depending on your event. That said, this dress did not work for my body. Unfortunately it was unflattering due to my busy size. Wish it had worked out though....

Stunning and comfortable!
I wore this dress during my wedding weekend. I loved that I could wear it during the day and also dress it up for the evening. And it is extremely comfortable and even has POCKETS!! I would say the dress run a little large overall. I usually wear a 4 and the 2R I ordered and wore was a still a bit big. In the future I will likely order a size 0. Also, at 5'8'' the regular fit perfectly with flats of 1'' heels. However, if I had worn high heels, I definitely would have needed the Long. I received many compliments and will definitely rent this dress again.

Comfortable, beautiful and perfect for my engagement photos
This dress was fantastic for my engagement shoot. It was easy to wear and move around in various poses and locations for photos. Also it photographed beautifully! I may even rent this dress again for my wedding weekend! I ordered both the extra small and small. Due to the layers of fabric at the bottom, I liked the way the extra small looked better. The smaller size was a bit tighter in the chest, so I wound up not buttoning the top bottom and just using double sided tape where I needed it! That worked out great. The other buttons and snaps are a bit challenging to find (there's only a total 3 closures in the entire dress, so find them all before heading out the door!) Finally dress looks great dressed up or down. I paired it with a denim jacket and nude wedge sandals. In the future I might pair it with some small gold/turquoise earrings or bracelet. It doesn't need to many accessories as the print is so vibrant!!

Perfect accessory for my bridal shower outfit!!
Wore these to my bridal shower. They complimented my vintage Chanel sweater and palazzo pants (my own) perfectly!! I wanted to standout and be a little different at my shower while still keeping it classic and classy. These earrings were perfect for the event and I received many compliments and inquiries about them. Every one was excited to learn about RTR!! Hope I can rent these again soon!!

Pictures don't so this dress justice!! Wanted to keep it!!!
This away the perfect and most amazing dress for my bachelorette party. Herve dresses achieve a great balance of sexiness and sophistication. Hugged my body in all the right places while still being comfortable so that I could eat, drink and dance! Awesome dress. I wore this dress with Spanx and a low back bustier. I highly recommend this kind of bra for larger chested women as normal bras will likely show. Paired it with burgundy heals and chandelier earrings of my own. Was getting compliments and turning heads all night!! Highly recommend this dress!!

Sparkle, sparkle--but short!!
Dress is beautiful and twinkles with every step you take. That said, it was very short on me, barely covered my spanks. I'm 5'7" with pretty short legs, do tall and long legged girls beware!! Also, I didn't quite have the right bra for this dress and as I'm large busted and wanted to wear it to my bachelorette party, I needed a dress and bra I felt supported in as I danced. So it wasn't quite the dress for me....

Beautiful fabric, not the shape for me...
The dress fabric was beautiful, but unfortunately gave me no shape. I would recommend ordering a size down.

Sexy, flattering and very comfortable
This dress was flattering to my body shape without being overly provocative. This was important as I was at a party with friends and family, including grandparents. Even though I am larger busted (34D), I was very comfortable going w/o a bra in this dress--although I do recommend some double sided tape, just incase!
