Stunning Dress! Very Flattering!
Marchesa Notte never lets me down. I've gained a lot of weight (50lbs) in the last couple years and barely anything makes me feel like I used to but this dress came close. It was also super comfortable. No need for a bra or spandex which is such a rarity. The dress was super flattering. It's so gorgeous in person. I received several compliments on it. So happy with this rental!

So sparkly and comfortable!
Gown was gorgeous. Received tons of compliments. I'm short but the length was still fine with some heeled boots. Love Theia! Originally thought I'd wear the 14 but the 12 fit even better.

Loved this dress. Very cute. Super short though. Highly recommend leggings.
If you have big arms like me then beware. It still fit but snugly. The slip underneath is super short and that's saying something because I'm short and things tend to be long on me. Loved the look. Only downside is my dangly earrings kept snagging on the lacey material. So avoid dangling earrings. Lol.

Much prettier in person. Wore this to a rehearsal dinner. Very happy with how it looked in person.
Zipper was a bit difficult to zip up (even when the dress wasn't on). Other than that, the material wasn't stretchy so I recommend wearing some sort of shape wear underneath. It probably runs a smidgen small but not enough to size up. Overall great dress.

GORGEOUS DRESS!!!!! And surprisingly comfortable. Love the designer. Did not disappoint.
Dress is gorgeous in person. Felt like a showstopper. And the material was a little stretchy which made it pretty comfortable to wear.

LOVED these so much that I rented them on unlimited so I could buy them!
Very classy and go with so many things. I'm not usually a gold person (prefer silver color) but these won me over!

Dress was not as fancy as I expected. Would probably wear it to work over a wedding.
Dress runs small. It was tight. I could have forced it but decided it would not be comfortable. It also felt a little short.

Gorgeous and so comfy! You'll need a silicone bra to stick to you since the top part is see through
Overall, LOVED this dress! It was a little bit sexy, but also the material was a little stretchy. Would definitely rent again :)

LOVE! Still trying to figure out what kinds of tops to wear with it but received lots of compliments
The material isn't shimmery but the cut and style makes it seem like it is. The movement of the dress is gorgeous when you walk. I wish I could afford to buy it.

Contrast Colorblock Pleat Skirt

Cute dress. Not a showstopper but pretty solid. Very thick material. Needs earrings or necklace.
The collar kept choking me which was unexpected. Overall, it was great for work though. Recommend wearing a statement piece of jewelry with it. Otherwise it is a little plain.

Cute dress. I didn't realize it was two pieces and that the top part is see-through.
Material is a little stiff and it was a little short for work. Overall cute though.

This dress runs really large so I was not able to wear it. I would try it in a smaller size.
The material is really thick. The dress color was pretty. Wish I had ordered it 2 sizes smaller. It was literally hanging off me.

So flattering!
Loved this dress! So flattering. Did a great job holding everything in with no weird bulges etc. My strapless bra kept peeping out the back but overall the fit was perfect!

Got a ton of compliments on this dress! Hugged me in all the right places.
The fit is a little tight. I fit the medium but was more comfortable in the large.

I wore this to the Book of Mormon show. I felt so elegant and sophisticated. It was perfect !
I did use fashion tape to keep the top of the dresses from exposing everything when I leaned over. After I ate dinner the dress was a bit tight sitting down which was uncomfortable when watching a 2.5 hour show BUT overall I loved the look and feel of it. AND I was pleasantly surprised that the length of the dress was perfect for me with just a pair of heels. I'm pretty short so I'm used to floor length dresses dragging on the floor.

My husband LOVED this dress. Super sexy yet still elegant and classy. Plus it was super comfortable.
This dress is so comfortable and fit like a dream. I would even buy this dress. It fit great. I think I might even have been able to order a size smaller.

I've always wanted to wear an Herve Leger dress! So excited I finally got to :)
It's very tight, especially in the arms, but I got several compliments on the dress. I paired it with sparkly gold heels and a statement gold necklace.
