I need someone's advice, please!
I've been looking for one particular Herve dress in a specific colour.
I recently found one, but it is size L and from the instructions on Lollipuff, I've figured that I must be an XS.
Do you think it is possible to alter a L to make it fit like an XS? (the style name is Raquel)
I really want the dress, but the sizing doubts are not letting me pull the trigger... I've never dealt with bandage dresses before... Please, any advice!
TIA

Like many others, I don't have many occasions to don a HL dress. But I guess I just needed to satisfy my desire to own at least 1 in my lifetime! Hope I made the right choice as I bought it online without trying it.

Resurrecting this thread because it was a Herve Leger day. I've worn this skirt a few times this spring. Truly a versatile piece.

I think that is too much to alter down. Continue the search, it will pop up. You cannot take it to any tailor, they need to work with HL and/or bandage dresses. They could really botch it up.

As a last ditch effort, ask the HL boutique if they have a tailor they use for alterations. I still think this is big job and you don't want to end up with a "Franken-dress".

Yeah, I'll call them and ask. I've never tried on a HL dress, maybe I'll be OK with a Small, then from L to S it's not as much difference... But still, you are right, it makes more sense to just wait. Thank you!

Hi Greta,

Ideally, go with the dress that already fits you and avoid alterations. Just my opinion. Btw, there will be a Raquel in S popping up on Lollipuff. :)

Thanks for the tip)) I already bought a L and an XXS &#128514; if none fit, I'll send them back and will keep an eye on the S you mentioned, but I am thinking ideally I would still need an XS for the best suction effect &#128517; will see) Thank you!!! &#127800;&#127800;&#127800;
