Runs large - I generally wear a 4 and could have worn a 2, maybe smaller. The colors and material are lovely. The skirt was a bit too long, particularly since it was too big.

meh
I love this style of shirt, and wanted to love this one in particular - however, it was no go. The photos make it look like it will flatter the waist, however it doesn't nip in at the waist and made me look heavier than normal. Additionally the fabric is fairly thin and requires a nude bra and wrinkles immediately.

Lovely dress
First - the dress is amazing - well cut, super flattering, sexy and still appropriate for conservative situations. The cut and styling say expensive and worth it. The caveats - this color is very unflattering on my shade of pale skin. If they come out with dress in a color that works for me I'll buy it in an instant. It will work better on you if you have some olive or yellow or darker undertones to your skin. And if you are large through the hips or butt, definitely size up. I generally wear size 4 in dresses. I rented a 6, and it's perfect (if a bit on the tight side) through the hips and I have some room in the top.

I wanted to like this dress but had to send it back unworn.
Dress is unwearable unless you have extraordinarily long arms - sleeves completely covered my fingers by more than an inch, had to send it back unworn, even though it runs small through the chest. If sleeves are always too short this is your dress.

Great skirt!
I re-rented this skirt and would swear it's a different model - the pattern didn't line up right, and the seams no longer laid flat. I wonder if parts of the skirt needed to be replaced. I sent it back without wearing this time. I get compliments from women and my boyfriend loves it as well! The pattern is lovely, it's a flattering shape and has that little extra something. The hidden mini inside the skirt could be longer. It's great for a date and fine for work as long as are not sitting with your legs facing / visible to the room.

Beautiful color and fabric
Lovely dress! The color, fabric and sleeve detail and are great, the neckline is shows a little skin but is still good for a family function. Unfortunately it didn't work for me (tried it as part of my unlimited subscription). It will looking best on athletic builds and smaller chested women, and will probably run large for women built that way. For hourglass figures, eg large chest (I'm actually a 30DD+, wish RTR had the ability to put our real bra size in our profiles) with a small waist, it is doesn't show off the waist - we'll just have to envy the women who can wear this well! ;-)

Cute Jacket
Cute mid weight jacket that would be good for spring or fall in most places. The cut is boxy and not super flattering to my curves - this will be cuter on athletic or smaller chested women.

Beautiful dress
Love the color and the typical Herve Leger fit. The dress is a bit longer than many of his - on me it was just below the knee, I used the back bottom zipper to create a slit so that I could walk. Also, despite the conservative front, it needs a strapless bra because of the back. Those two points were what took off a star - though my boyfriend loved the dress... I'm 36 27 38, and found that the dress fit great at the chest and waist and was really too tight through the hips.

Lovely red silk blouse
Lovely fabric, color and interesting style. I rented this through unlimited with the plan to wear it for work. I ended up wearing it on a date because it showed much more cleavage on me than the model. My date loved it... In an office it would have been too revealing and I kept having to fight the shirt from revealing more (again - my date loved it!) If you are large chested, I suggest sizing up to give the girls some . I rented the small and might try the medium.

Amazing color!
Rented the dress as part of my Unlimited subscription - and I loved it. I would have probably been better with a 4 (been losing weight and 4 seems to be my new size). Very flattering on an hourglass figure, and the deep V shows off the girls well. Definitely more of a date dress - my date was quite enchanted. Will rent again when the weather warms up.

Nice Red Dress!
Rented this as part of my Unlimited order - I ended up wearing it several times - at a cocktail event, a photoshoot and birthday dinner. The dress was attention getting and flattering - the fabric is thick and stretchy - definitely will hide some faults (I usually wear spanx with this kind of dress anyway.) Also conservative enough for a fancy work function, and mid-thigh length on me.

Great jacket
Rented this with Unlimited - loved it and got lots of compliments! Will rent again and strongly recommend it - a stylish piece to make an outfit pop without making it formal, or to make a little black dress wearable in cooler weather and more situations! The good: super flattering, with slightly padded shoulders that make you look good. Works amazing with dresses, high waisted pants and most skirts. Nice weight for So Cal weather, most places it would be an in between season jacket. Flattering cut on hourglass figures! As a daily wardrobe piece, I found that I couldn't wear it with all my pants and I mostly wore it with whites or blacks. I'm also very hourglass (36 bust, 26 waist) and it was a touch tight on the chest when zipped, while I would have liked it tighter on the waist.

Perfect if you have a small waist
This dress does run small - I generally wear a 4 these days and wore a 6 here. For me this dress fit amazingly in the waist - things are always large in the waist but not this (I'm 36 / 27 / 38 ). It was amazing!! Plan on a strapless bra and a statement necklace to go with this dress - it shows off a lot of skin at the neckline! I'll rent it again when our weather gets colder (rented through Unlimited)

Lovely dress and fabric
RTR stated that a 44 is a 6 - when you look elsewhere online a more common size translation is 42 is a 6. In any case, I am between a 4 and a 6 and the 44 was too large all over, but particularly through the shoulders and chest. As it was part of an Unlimited order and not for a specific event, that wasn't too much of a problem. The dress itself is lovely, a very thick luxurious fabric. I will consider renting a smaller size for holiday parties.

Lovely, solid feeling bangles. As other reviews have mentioned they are loud if you wear both. However each also works as a statement piece so no worries. I have small hands and wrists - and the bangles were a tiny bit larger than I would have liked, though they always stayed on.

Very cute - can be dressed up or down
I rented this through Unlimited - it's cute and the stretchy top allows for some flexibility in size. I'm between a 4 and 6 right now and narrow through the shoulders (though a 30F bra). I would have preferred a 4 for my shoulders / neckline. The dark blue material is very comfortable, and will not control bulges, so Spanx are needed if you want to hide any extra curves. The neckline is conservative and the skirt is short enough to be flirty.
