Great dress, but runs big
This was my backup dress so I didnt wear it. However, it was lovely other than it runs pretty large. Im usually a size 4 to a T, and I was swimming in this dress. Since I didnt have a backup size, I ended up not wearing it. However, if I had a smaller size it would have been pretty hot and form fitting.

Great dress!
Got compliments all night! You cannot wear a bra with this dress, not even a nu bra. I bought some pasties (spelling?) and did not wear undewear ( you could see the seams no matter what) My BF said it was the best thing hes ever seen me wear:)

This is a pretty dress. Im usually a size 2 or 4 but after reading reviews I ordered a 4 and 6. The 4 was two small in the hips, and the 6 was too big in the bust. The belt that came with the 4 was super tight, but the belt that came with the 6 was way too big! I ended up wearing the 6 with a strapless bra and having to use fashion tape to keep it held up. Im a C cup so my chest isn't small, but I was having to pull the dress up all night. I also ended up wearing the 4 belt but it was so tight! I hardly ate at the event because of it. Overall it looked really cute but was probably one of the most uncomfortable dresses Ive worn.

This dress runs very large! Im usually a 2-4, but after reading the reviews I rented a 0-2. The color is really pretty,its just not a very flattering cut when its put on. I consider myself to have a really good body, and this just wasn't flattering at all. It may work well with very thin lanky girls, but otherwise its just not a good cut. There was also silver duct tape type along the inside hem of the dress. If you sat down you could totally see the tape! So tacky! not to mention the hem had an unfinished raw edge to it maybe if you used fashion tape to tape it under and not show it'd be ok

Too annoying to deal with!
The XS that I got was a completely different color than my back up size S. You could tell it was way overworn and seriously needs to be retired. Im sure it was a fine dress at one point but mine was way to stretched out everywhere and the top was falling down all night. It was almost as if larger girls were trying to fit into the extra small it was so big!!! It didnt have the tight feel that Herve dresses should have. Im seriously disappoined with my RTR experience this time. RTR please retire the dresses that are clearly overlyused and past their prime. When I say the XS and S were two entirely different colors i mean it! They were coral versus ruby red. Awful! The small was too big in the top so couldnt wear it and had to deal with this annoying XS that was too stretched out all night!

Cute but...
This dress is really cute but gets a 3 for several reasons: (1) It is way too tight around the arm and armpit areas and then too loose in the waist area [just as another reviewer found], you could still wear it and have it look fine, but itd be uncomfortable (2) although it looks like you could wear a bra with it, you cant, unless you buy a special bra, (3) you cannot not wear a bra with it because it is see through with a camera flash [just as another reviewer said] I end up not wearing it because although it was cute, it was just waayyy too much of a hassle.
