Could be a good maternity option, depending on the size of "the girls"!
Unfortunately, I couldn't wear this dress, although the color and fabric were absolutely beautiful. I was hoping that it would work as a maternity dress. While it could for some women, at 7 months pregnant, I had just grown too large in the bust for it to zip up. But I can't wait to rent it someday when I'm back to a normal size!

RTR remains an option even when 7 months pregnant!
I was a little nervous to order my first formal gown from RTR during my pregnancy. At 27 weeks pregnant, I had no idea if something would fit. But thankfully, due to the great reviews and recommendations provided on the site, I found a wonderful option. This particular dress is very low cut, and with "the girls" getting a little crazy right now, I had to pin the cloth shut in the cleavage area. I definitely would have preferred a Long, but that option wasn't available when I needed it. I am 5'9" and wore heels, so the regular length was not as long as I would prefer. In general, this was a great maternity option and I got SO many compliments about looking like a pregnant greek goddess!

Statement piece!
This was recommended as an accessory to one of the formal gowns I rented, and it was the perfect choice to add a modern edge to the dress. Is very versatile and can be used for all types of occasions. Loved it!

Beautiful gown, just not a good color for me
I ordered this gown as a back-up, and ended up wearing a different one instead. It fit beautifully, and was gorgeous, I just didn't like how it looked with my skin tone. I have since ordered and worn the silver gown, and it was perfect! This is an incredible gown and would look great on a ton of people.

Absolutely beautiful gown!
I got so many compliments on this dress all night, from both men and women - everyone loved it, and I felt so elegant. It's incredibly feminine. The built-in corset was great for keeping everything in place, but I wanted a little more "umpf", so I also wore a strapless push-up. I was definitely packed in there with all of the extra fabric, but I felt much better with the extra lift. The corset doesn't necessarily provide any of that on its own. The cut of this dress is slim through the waist and hips, so I felt a little self-conscious as I consider these my "problem areas", but overall, I was too excited about how much I loved everything else to worry about it. Definitely a show stopper!

Perfect fit and length
This is a great dress for the taller girls - I got the long length, and it hit perfectly with about 4 inch heels. It's super comfortable and really flowy. The dress I got was in perfect condition and I would definitely recommend!

Cut differently than other Herve's
I've rented several Herve's and loved them, but this one seemed to be cut differently. I'm busty, and it didn't fit well in the chest area. Luckily, I had a back-up dress to wear instead. A beautiful gown, but maybe not the best with a larger chest.

Pretty dress, cut small
The cut of this dress was just way too small for my frame, so unfortunately, I wasn't able to wear it.

Perfect for an afternoon party!
The color of this dress is fantastic! The fit was perfect and it was just the right amount of fun for my sister's baby shower.

Everything with my experience was perfect, as always!
I was visiting NYC from out of town, and I think RTR actually dropped this off at my hotel. Also, a lady I met the night before the event hadn't heard of the site, and after checking it out, was able to have a gown dropped off on the same day, she was so excited! This is a very stretchy dress and is very forgiving. It fits true to size, but even a little large or small will be OK. It does get a little itchy under the arms after a while, but I was expecting that. I got a ton of comments, and it was completely sparkly, which is always a bonus for a fancy affair!
