LOVE
So comfortable and flattering. Not super clingy, and hits at a nice length. A tad on the roomy side, but I don't mind that as I am super body conscious being 5 months postpartum. Wish it had a little slit, but not a big deal.

The cutest
This is comfortable and a different way to show off your growing belly. My fiance couldn't stop telling me how adorable I looked while wearing this. The material is great, so soft and cozy. I wish the waist fell either lower or higher - not exactly middle like it does, but this is so minor.

Is this really maternity?
I am nearing the end here - so maybe this is meant for earlier in pregnancy, but this was comical on my 35 week body. There was absolutely not enough material to wrap properly across my chest - and the fit across the baby bump was not good either. Sad because the patterns is pretty and you'd think a wrap would work well at this stage.

Nice material, awful fit
Like the other dress by this designer that I tried I am wondering if they have every actually seen a pregnant lady? This is more like a tent, with an awkward waistline... no size would have helped. It was not wearable for me at 30 weeks at all.

What the heck is this
Ok, so maternity dresses are challenging by nature... but this was just awful. Its MASSIVE, at 30 weeks I am wearing a M/L in most maternity dresses and the M here had so much fabric I could have fit in here twice. And it was TONS of fabric at the hips too. On top of it all you have the most awkward waistline I have ever encountered. Nice fabric, but really really poor cut... I obviously sent this right back.

Pretty pattern
Pretty pattern and great bright colors for spring / summer. Not the most comfortable dress - the zipper on the side was itchy and irritating. My typical size 6 fit well.

Did not want to send back
I ordered this for a family trip to Denver. It was perfect for the chilly at night but warmer during the day weather. It fit a little boxy, but that is the style. Super soft, yummy smelling leather and in a great color. I had a hard time bringing myself to package it for return.

Runs small, didn't wear
This dress is teeny and very short. Also heavy fabric for a lacy look. I couldn't wear the 44 and am a 4/6 normally.

Pretty & warm but big
This a nice wrap coat, very comfortable, warm, & heavy fabric. I should have ordered the Small, not the Medium. Just a note - there are no buttons or hooks, just the belt.

Great pattern
This is a very nice maxi dress, the length was ok on me in heels. I loved the floral / stripes mix up here. Fabric was very comfortable. I will say that it's not forgiving at all, meaning it does not conceal problem areas.

Bright Red and Lacey
This is a lovely dress, and the color really pops. Classic DVF wrap fit, I wore my usual 6 with a slip under. I will say that the lace fabric seemed to accentuate imperfections - you could see my tights waistband easily even with a slip over. If you are conscious about lumps or bumps around the tummy this may not be for you.

So comfortable and sparkly
This is prettier in person than it is online. Very warm and comfortable sweater knit wrap. I did not find the sparkle itchy at all and I have sensitive skin. I could have used the Small instead of the Medium; I am usually a 6 in DVF for reference.

Love DVF
I rented this for Christmas, it was lovely. The color and pattern are great, it is navy and red not black. Typical DVF fit, which always works well for me.

I accidentally ordered an 8 instead of the 6, but made it work. This was so pretty on that it motivated a friend to join Rent the Runway so that she could rent it also. Lots of compliments, would love to wear it again.

Want to own this one
I ended up wearing this twice, to a New Years party and to a family Christmas party. I was so sad to send it back. The lace makes it feminine and the blue color that comes out is so pretty. Also very comfortable (you can eat what you want)!

Fun Coat
This runs large - and it looks even larger due to the 'furryness'. Got stopped on the street within my first few blocks with it on. It is fun and is a very nice rich blue, the mirror accents are great.

Pretty pattern and fabric, but bizarre zipper bump
This was lovey, comfortable and had great movement. However the zipper did not lay flat in the back, giving me an unwanted 'tail'. Hopefully it was just the one I received. Was a nice length for me at 5'4.

So Pretty
If you like DVF Wrap Dresses and girly patterns this is for you. It is very light weight, I rented in the winter, but think it's best suited for warmer weather. Would definitely like to wear this beauty again! I always wear a tight slip/tank under these as they tend to be cut too low for me, but I love her fit and patterns always.

Runs small, even for Herve
I am normally a solid M, even sometimes a S in Herve... this one i couldn't zip. not sure if it was the one I received or what. The color was fabulous, so it was a shame.

So much fun
This is a great little dress if you're feeling playful. Comfy material and very form fitting. I wore the size M, and like other reviews did have a little issue where the sleeves were too long as I am only 5'4.

So in love with this dress
I wore this for my work holiday party - it was absolutely perfect. Comfortable and sweet with a pop of sparkle. This is one that I wish I could have in my closet. Fit was great, although my only complaint is that I wish the plunge was a little higher (because of work party wear).
