Gorgeous!
This dress is exceptional! Color really pops. Lacy but structured. Keyhole back is sexy but classy. There was a clasp missing on that back but I had no time to return it before the wedding in Scotland. I did not need to wear a bra as dress is well lined. Great length. Loved it!

This dress is stunning. And I love that it's a little longer than the knee. Pro: it keeps its shape all night due to the excellent quality. Con: it's so sturdy it's harder to raise your arms or bend over to pick something up.

Formal & Flirty
This dress was a perfect fit of formal and fun. I love the keyhole back and got so many compliments on the color. This is my 2nd time renting this dress for a formal wedding this summer. Both times I felt confident and enjoyed this dress. My only flag to raise was that the dress had boning and one of the wires stuck out just at an angle in the back. My sister-in-law had to help me fix it in the bathroom. Otherwise no issues!

I loved it!
This fit so well! It was a little fancy for work, and needed a cardigan to cover the open back, but I wore it without a bra and it was structured enough to keep things in check. Loved the color. Would definitely rent it again and wear it somewhere more exciting!

Stunning Color & Unique Back
I wore this for a rehearsal dinner. The color is beautiful. It was a little snug in the hips and the fabric doesn't have much give, so I wore a 10 instead of an 8. This meant the top was a little bigger than I would have preferred. I didn't feel like I had enough support without a bra (maybe would have felt different in the smaller size), but I wore a nubra and felt comfortable all night. The dress showed a little more cleavage in the front than I realized, but with the fabric overlay, it was not as obvious. The detail on the back is really gorgeous-- it has very detailed flowers and lace and not just a mere opening. The detail is beautiful. So many people complimented the color and back.

Favorite dress so far!!
This dress was perfect for the occasion, classy and bright. I'm a little over 5'9", 34C, waist 31", Hips 41" and 168lbs - pear shape. The size 10 fit perfectly. I couldn't wear a bra with it because the back is open, so I taped on liner cups. I really loved this dress.

Such a beautiful blue color and the lace detail was fab! I wish they had the 14 available as the 16w was just a little loose and I really think this dress is meant to be form fitting but still not a big deal as it still looked amazing on me! 3rd rental and going strong!

Pretty Blue Dress!
I wore this dress for my bridal tea and it was sooo comfortable. I am pretty broad shouldered and busty and I still felt like I had plenty of room. I received many compliments on the style and the color of the dress. However, I would definitely rent a smaller size next time, but I will probably rent this again.

Best Dressed Award!
I LOVED this dress!! I had tried the 6 (my normal dress size) on in the Chicago RTR store and it was just a little snug so I went up a size. I had also read other reviews that Monique Lhuillier dresses run small. The top is padded so you don't need to wear a bra. The dress is backless but it's just enough to be classy enough for a work holiday party. I got a TON of compliments and my husband and I won best dressed couple! The color is gorgeous!! I am 5'2 and it was just below my knees.

Beautiful color...fit like a glove
This dress is a beautiful color. Thick material and pretty details. Fit like a glove so I didn't need a bra because it held everything in and up. You definitely need someone to help do the clasps in the back of the dress. There was a small area in the front right below the abdomen that seems to bunch up a little after I had it on for a bit but overall it was gorgeous:

I was getting compliments left and right and I felt like a million bucks!
So I am usually a size 6, but for this dress I had to go with the 8 due to how tight the dress was. The 6 fit and accented my curves even more, but I couldn't sit down in it. Luckily, I got the 8 as a backup just in case. It still showed off my curves, but I was much more comfortable sitting down and dancing in it. The color, the material, and the backless part was everything! I felt like an old hollywood movie star for the night!

Pretty dress
I'm usually a size 8 but based on the other reviews I went up a size and it fit great. I wore it to my brother in-laws wedding. Great fit, style and was really pretty in pictures. My only complaint was the back had small buttons holding a piece of lace that hides the zipper and they were a bit warn so I had to keep re-buttoning it all night when I sat down.

Love this dress!
I rented a 10 since most of the reviews said to size up but the 10 was a little too big in the shoulders/bust. The benefit to this was that i didn't have to unzip or deal with the 6 clips/ buttons every time I had to use the restroom! I don't recommend wearing this dress if there's even a chance it'll be hot for your event. It's very thick material, not what I was expecting, but I highly recommend this dress for a fall or winter event. I would definitely rent this again!

Stylist Review!
This is such a great look for any cocktail event! The color is striking and rich in person. The lace is structured, so it will last but also delicate and beautiful. The way it mixes with the mesh makes for a unique look. The mid section is heavily structured with a very small amount of boning. If you have broad shoulders, I do suggest sizing up because there is a lot of structure in the shoulders and they are a bit tight. The actual arm holes are large, which is nice because you have plenty of room to move around. The length is a bit long (I'm 5'4"), but that was the only thing that I didn't love. I really loved this style and I would definitely rent this style for an event!

Great fit and complimentary
This is a beautiful dress, unfortunately I didn't end up choosing this one. Runs true to size in my opinion. I just had a baby 11 weeks ago, so I wanted something to be flattering around the mid-section. The material is pretty forgiving. The back key hole is very pretty especially with the lace. Looks great with nude or red heels. Would consider renting this again!

Haven't worn yet...
The chest and shoulders were a little large for me, a few small alterations would help. A size smaller would have been too tight through the hips. Color is beautiful and fabric/lace is unique. The item arrive slightly damaged, some bent lace around trim and a couple missing snaps (there are 3 of them to flatten the lace by the back closures).

The color and the back of the dress were eye popping!! Made my night!
The dress is super form fitting so that made me a little self conscious. It was a little hard to dance in. You can see a crease in the picture, that crease didn't seem to disappear; but that was the size that fit best out of the two sizes (the 2 instead of the 4). I had so much fun wearing this dress besides it being tight - I felt like royalty!

Perfect dress for my 1940s themed event.
Love the color and the style, especially the lace cut out in the back. Unfortunately, the boning in my particular dress had popped through the fabric in 2 spots and was scratching me the entire evening.

A lot of women wore black... I stood out in this gorgeous blue!
This dress was in great condition, and looked just like the website photo. It didn't have much give in the fabric, so I planned to wear the size 4... Then I realized that the chest and underarms were VERY gappy. It would take a VERY padded bra to fill it up properly. The plight of the A cup! I went with the size 2, and it okay on top. An extra benefit way that it kept my tummy sucked in without much effort since it was pretty snug! I felt beautiful as a guest at an awards banquet. Normally I like to show more shoulders, but this was a nice change of pace for me. I didn't plan on turning heads but it happened anyway with the amazing color and fantastic open back!

Wore this for my SIL's wedding. Her colors were cobalt blue and peach. The color was perfect and the fit is true to size. The lining is very thick so you don't have to wear a bra. Overall was really happy with this dress.

Stunning venue
I usually wear a size 4 but my shoulders are broad and my hips are wide. The cut was tight around my chest on the top and scrunched way too much under my hips at the bottom. The 6 fit well enough and gave me a little more room to dance! It still scrunched at the bottom so I would need to readjust before photos, but overall this dress was very flattering in style and absolutely love the vibrant color! Sidenote: my boyfriend did consider changing out of his uniform and he bought a cobalt pocket square and tie to match me for his grey suit, the dress is definitely royal blue not cobalt.

Wore it for graduation pictures, beautiful royal blue dress!! I'm normally a size 6-8. I wore the 8, the 6 was a too tight on top. The only draw back is the dress has boning in it and it started to poke me after a while of wearing it .

The dress was elegant and sexy at the same time. The open back, the details and the color of the dress were beutiful. I truly enjoyed wearing it. The only con is that the fabric has no stretch at all, so I had to wear size 2 instead of 0.
