Opinions Needed & Welcomed! :smile1:

I need a new LBD and would like to get a HL. :yahoo: I am looking for something versatile and classic, that I can dress up or down and wear for many years to come. I avoid miniskirts and strapless, as I am a bit of a klutz. I like the following styles: New Diane, Lane, Kayann, Luz, and Johanna. Thoughts?? :chatty:

As I don't know which of the above dresses are carried locally, so I would appreciate your guidance on sizing. I wear a US 8-10 and my only HL is a Medium. I've included a link to the dress I have, only mine is red.

Thanks in advance for helping me choose my new HL! :ghi5:

Great choices!

New Diane/Lane dress is actually on sale for $474 - This would be the perfect dress for you if you are looking for a dress that is a classic style that will last many years. It has a low U back. So you can wear a low back bra or a nubra with the dress. We also have a longer version of the Lane dress called the Karima $850 It's about 2 panels longer in length.

Kayann - 3/4 sleeve dress with open sleeves on the top
Luz - one shoulder black dress with asymmetrical lines
Johanna - only comes in the ombre blue & ombre root combo colors

I hope that helps!

Hello everyone! I love Herve Leger but rarely go to an event where I can dress up and was wondering if there were any styles which you could think of that are suitable for wearing to the office (i.e. are closed/high at the back, instead of being strappy).
 
So I realize I have been remiss in posting pictures. Here's what the silver "faux leather" (but really, it's not faux leather at all) dress looked like -- I ended up returning it:

I just have other dresses that are fit-and-flare that look great and cost a lot less than $800.

Also, here is a truly awful pic of the new Ari I have -- the lighting is doing weird things, and the color is totally off, but in real life it's a sort of deep violet (a little navy-ish) and it looks fantastic:

I got this one from a boutique and I am keeping it!

They both look great on you but if you have the same look for less then a return is warranted. I really need an Ari dress in my life!

Hi guys I need some help here I have a Herve ledger pintuck dress in a midnight its blue but not navy
I usually wear sandals with this dress or beige yo yo patent pumps.
But it's too cold out side to wear sandals .
I was thinking to wear my louboutin sixties I am already very tall and the dress is mid thigh. I try not to wear high heels in the winter due to a minor foot drop
Thanks for your help

Thanks! Yeah, I loved the silver one but a similar look can be had for less. Also, it's a little stiff around the bottom--the sides are stuffed with crinoline (or something), so there's a lot of padding down there...I don't know, not my favorite HL dress :)

Congrats on your second Ari! :)

Thanks :)

Thanks! I also have a blue Ari...love the style!

the ari looks *stunning* on you. love, love, love!

LilJake - Both dresses look amazing on you!

Thank you! The Ari is definitely a winner.
 
Hello!
I have a small collection of HL and I'm thinking of adding another one. Can someone tell me how the sizing is on the Monique strapless (the black with the nude cut-outs down the front/side)? How is the length? What about the bust - is it better for smaller or larger busts? Thanks:smile1:

You might be able to get away with the Delilah turtleneck dress, but at the end of the day HL is still very form fitting, so it might still be considered inappropriate for an office environment...
