Almost Amazing
I loved this dress and wish I could have worn it. The cut and color were gorgeous. If only it was a few inches longer.

Sexy, easy to wear dress
I really enjoyed wearing this dress. It was flattering and comfortable to wear all night. It was a little shorter than I'm used to wearing, but it didn't ride up so it wasn't an issue. I paired it with a gold bracelet and gold shoes that I had in my closet in addition to the Kenneth Jay Lane Aqua Drop earrings, which I rented. I wore a strapless/convertible bra and spankx. I liked the belt but thought it was strange that it only went across the front of the dress. The snap that attached the belt to the dress popped off a couple times thought the night but it was more of an annoyance than anything else.

Sexiest Dress Ever
This dress was amazing! I wore it to a charity ball in February. I was worried about wearing something so fitted so I tried a similar Herve on at the store before I ordered it. I would definitely recommend ordering your true size because if you size up you will loose all the magical shaping powers of the dress. I wore Spanx and decided to go without a bra since the straps or back of every bra I had peeked out of the dress. I can't wait to order another Herve.

Fun Accessory
I rented these earrings to wear with the Lela Rose English Garden Sheath. They went together perfectly. The earrings were a little larger than I expected but they were light weight and comfortable for the entire evening. If I had worn a more basic dress I would have pulled my hair back to highlight the earrings.

So Pretty!
I loved this dress and got a ton of compliments. The colors in the dress were amazing - even prettier in person. The fit was perfect for my shape. I was a little concerned about the front sash before I received the dress but it laid flat and didn't add any volume. I would definitely recommend for any spring or summer event.

Very pretty - just not the right fit for me
I really wish I could have worn this dress. Unfortunately, the cut didn't work on me. I am on the tall side (5'11") and even though most of my height is in my legs I occasionally come across a dress that isn't long enough in the torso for me. The top of this dress fit well and the bottom fit well but I needed a few more inches of fabric separating the two halves. The waist of the dress hit me much higher than my natural waist causing the hip/butt shaping seams to hit well above my belly button, creating a "roll" of loose fabric. I imagine this dress would look great on someone shorter or even on someone with narrower hips.

Gorgeous Earrings
I loved these earrings. They were a gorgeous color and the perfect size - big enough to stand out but not overpowering. They complemented the black Lela Rose dress I rented perfectly.

Super cute dress
I wore this dress to brunch with my in-laws and got a ton of compliments. The colors are much brighter in person. I paired it with flat gold sandals, gold jewelry, and a pink sweater. The dress fit well but it was difficult to hide my bra straps because of the almost halter neckline. The dress was the perfect length even on my 5'11" frame. I wish I had a picture to share.

Classy and Sexy
This was my second Lela Rose rental and I can't wait to rent another. I am fairly tall (5'11") with an hour glass shape and both Lela Rose dresses I have rented have fit like a glove. I rented this dress for an evening wedding and it was absolutely perfect. The geometric detailing along the chest makes the dress more interesting than most LBDs. It was a very classy dress with just a hint of sexy. I wish I owned this one.
