Beautiful color dress - photographs well
Beautiful TTS Herve. Good for shorter ladies as it hits way above the knee. The dress was nice in person but definitely looks much better in pics.

Beautiful color shirt, runs small
The pic doesn't do the color justice - it's a rich cherry red. The shirt runs a little small - it was almost too short on the arms and a little bit snug in the shoulders, and could have been a little longer. Would have been perfect in the small.

Cute LBD for work
Cute dress but nothing terribly special. Wore this to work. Pics don't do it justice - the pattern is much prettier in person. The length works for petites.

Showcase for breasticles
The color was standout - a really nice teal. It was slightly long for me (5'0) but still hit at the knee. I normally wear a 0 and it fit normally - not crazy tight. I've RTR many times before and this was the only time I truly did get complimented all night. Can't beat it for Vegas and for the price.

Eh - overhyped
I rented this for a wedding. The fit of the body was a little weird - it bagged out around the waist. The back is cute but the front sort of looks shapeless. You can't wear a bra with this dress but the top fits snugly. I received no compliments on the dress - it was just sort of ok.

Super cute on models - on real girls, eh
Rented this for a rehearsal dinner where I was the maid of honor. I got complimented on the dress color but not on the dress itself. It has no stretch and sort of bunches up. Also you can see spanx lines underneath the dress. I'm usually a 2 in Elizabeth and James but I had to take the 4 in this dress. It's one of those dresses that is better in theory than on.

Depressing colors - too overwhelming for petites
I rented this for a wedding rehearsal dinner and/or my sisters bachelorette party and ended up wearing it to neither. The colors were sort of dim and not vibrant and the dress was too long and skirt was too poufy. It was overwhelming on a petite fame.

Dress is great for petites needing a "gown"
Got this as a backup dress and ended up wearing it. Mercifully it fit. I'm 5'0 and the length was perfect in front - not too long. Pattern was interesting but overall the dress didn't melt my face off. The 0 was too tight in the ribs. If you are petite and looking for a fail safe black tie dress you can wear with a bra, I recommend renting this. You won't steal the spotlight but it's a great fitting dress.

Much cuter than the pic - but runs WAY small
Rented this for a night out with friends. They only had the XS available, and based on others' reviews it seemed like that would work. The dress arrived, and while it was definitely cuter in person than in the photos on RTR it is TINY. It's also long. I'm 5'0 103lbs with boobs and a butt and there was no way I could zip it up. Walking was out of the question. Dress came down to my knees. Had to exchange it for a different dress. The XS will only work if you are very slender.

Bangin HL dress for maximum boob revelation
This was a back up dress that was sent to me because the other HL dress I ordered was destroyed by the previous owner. Fits true to size and is a little long for short ladies (I'm 5'0, 103 lbs and wore the xs) but not terribly so. Extremely cleavage so get ready for some looks. It's a nice go to dress if you want to look nice but don't want to be the star of the show. The color is sort of a gray/coffee color. Might rent it again if it was in a different color.
