I like the way my boobs look in mine. It gives me good cleavage and I don't need to wear a bra if I don't want to.

Ah, I guess that's the issue. On me, the scoop essential kind of squashes my boobs. If I pull them up, I look like a porn star, but if I push them down I get the "grandma" look Bebe is talking about...I can see how it might give good cleavage on a smaller chest though.
 
Well, I got my sale dress today, but I can't post pics because I literally can't zip it up - not because it's super-skin tight, but because the back zipper goes all the way up to the base of my neck. At least that's what I'm hoping... I'm hoping that it actually fits over my bust. I think once I get it zipped, it will be fine, but I'll have to squish the "girls" down:p It's the black Raquel and I love the style. It's the perfect LBD and it will be fun to add pops of color with shoes, bags, etc.

Hi vhdos, I really hope it fits you. I loved the style so much when i got it that i almost got it in black as well as a go to LBD.

I didn't realize that a 34C was considered a small chest...:shrugs::giggles:

This dress was available in HL in Miami South Beach just last Friday, on the sale rack.

Really?? Are you sure it's the style on the left (not the one on the right, I saw it on sale in several stores).

I live in Paris, a bit far from Miami.. not sure if the store will accept to ship to France, but i'll call tomorrow.

Thank you for sharing the tip!
 
Anyone own this basic scoop black tank top (I think bebe does if I remember correctly?):
https://www.theoutnet.com/product/254135
I think that I've read that it runs slightly small? I ordered it in my usual size (XXS) and I'm hoping it fits okay. I have one other HL top (a black halter style) and I'm not crazy about it because it runs pretty long. I'm crossing my fingers that this one is a little better.

I tried on but returned either this top or one that is very similar....I'm afraid I can't really remember whether the back on the one I tried was slightly different, though. Either way, I found it true to size (I'm an XXS too, if that helps) but I chose to return it because it ran a little long. I tried walking in it and it ruched up like crazy.

I bought that top in both an xxs and xs. Fits tts but I liked the XS more because it was longer.

That is exactly the problem that I have with my HL halter top. It rides up on me, making it fairly uncomfortable. Also, the length is awkward on my 5'3" frame (much too long for me). I have to really squish my boobs in it too. I'm really hoping that the tank style is better, if not, I can return it.
 
Anyone else see "Stretta" on Gilt today? I had never heard of it before. Bandage-style dresses for less than $200. Some of the styles (like the one-shoulder) look like copy-cats of the HL one-shoulder.

Haha yeah! I have seen them on some of the other sites...before that was Wow Couture -- they had TONS of almost-exact copies of HL styles for awhile, but it looks like they have since moved on to designing more original stuff (Wow Couture has, that is...not Stretta).

Stretta fabric material is quite different. Herve Leger is much nicer imo.
