Pretty dress for bridal events
I loved the pleats, and the fit is very modern. It's comfortable. I have a really long torso. I wanted it to be longer, but that's just me. It felt like a dress Zoe Dechanel could pull off, but not me. Sort a skater style dress, but a little longer. Hope this helps!

Great for bridal shower
I wore this for my bridal shower. It's dressy. It's a snug fit, so I recommend sizing one or two sizes up. I found the 8 to be a little constricting around the waist. I'm usually a 6 in dresses. The lace at the top looked a little worn out, but I got a lot of compliments on this dress.

Wore it for my wedding
Great for a bride. Easy clasp and it doesn't look cheap.

Great gown for a corporate event
I read the reviews for this dress, and they are accurate. The dress fit as I expected it to. The regular length was perfect with medium sized heels. I wore the large instead of the medium because I was going to a work event. (Also, I was feeling a little post-blizzard chubby.) The medium fit too, but really, it all depends on the look you're going for and who's rented the dress before you did. I didn't want a dress that stuck out, and it did the job. Not too exciting, but I'm glad it fit really well. Nice bonus, Herve Leger dresses are comfortable and tend to stretch a little as the night goes on.

Love. It.
I loved this dress. I would buy this one. The fabric is a heavy lace that's comfortable and very flattering. I wore this with black tights in February for a bridal shower. (Also with a regular bra and no spanx!) I wouldn't wear it when it's really hot outside, but it's for fall, winter, and spring events. The cut was great and tummy flattering. Kate Spade dresses seem to run true to size or a little generous. The length was around the knee. If you're concerned about it being too short, I would get it with the size up dress too for comparison.

Not worn, but lovely fabric and print
I wore my back up dress instead. Maybe the 8 would have fit better, but not in the bust area. The top was too big, the waist was tight, and it was too short on me. (I have a long torso.) the belt looked a little faded. it just didn't look right on me. However, the fabric and print are AMAZING. There's a maxi version of this dress with a different neckline. I'm definitely going to rent that one later on this summer.

Hydrangea Booty Awesomeness
This dress I has the perfect cut for someone who's athletic and or has a long torso. It is fitted, so make sure to wear spanx. My booty looked *amazing*. The print is gorgeous and compliments the pop of mint green at the top. perfect for a spring or summer wedding. Long enough to be appropriate but still makes you look sexy. True to size.

Loved this dress!
Even with a long torso, this length was just right. Not embarrassing short but not matronly long either. The fabric travels well and does not wrinkle. It's gorgeous shade. I am definitely renting it again!
