Deconstructed

This dress was fitted but very comfortable with a soft hand-feel. The deconstructed suiting details are amazing. Has a very tailored look perfect for work. This dress was a huge hit at work. Incredible vibes.

Office Chicest!

Obsessed with this beautifully cut Monse dress! Was perfect work Virtual Lobby Meeting with Legislators to stand out and be remembered even through Zoom! Would rent a size down as the 2 was a touch large, but still fit and looked beautiful sitting down in my wheelchair as well. Absolutely must-rent for a standout professional look! ❤️💕

Awesome work dress

Great dress for work. I wore sleeves underneath bc it was chilly but also the armholes were a little big. Loved the patchwork of this dress.

Boss of the country club

I plan to wear this for a speaking event at a country club in Nashville next week. Has flair both with and without the jacket. Arrived NWT and fits me like a GLOVE. I don’t normally wear a high neck or midi length, so I’m super excited to give this a try!

Workwear with a twist!

I loved this dress. Great fit for a work related event. A couple of things that were important for me- no matter how many times I straightened out the material, the back became wrinkled. And most importantly- the slit in the back is LONG/TALL. I had to pin it because it bordered on exposing my butt. So pick undergarments wisely!

I love it!

I’m obsessed with this dress, I’ve rented it so many times. It’s so cool and definitely a statement piece. Others have mentioned beWARE the slit does go a bit high in the back, so just be careful! I wore little bike shorts under.

What a Twist!

Classic sheath shape with a twist. This is a second time rental as I love the fresh take with the different conservative prints. It was a little loose and I could have probably sized down to the 4. Was great for a work convention.

First time wearing Monse & won't be my last

The quality of the fabrics & the tailoring of this piece are incredible. It's so much better in real life. The details- the belt loops & inside lining on the outside of the suit pants along the hem, the side and back slits/vents, the functional pockets (may be stitched closed to protect pocket before wear- slits often are also often tacked stitched on suit skirts - you can open those up with a stitch ripper or do it very carefully with scissors). I love this dress with a collared shirt underneath during colder weather. It looks fabulous with a crisp white collar and I loved it with pink silk. The panels are navy and grey pinstripes, and a black plaid material that has a pink/red color striped in it. It's a subtle pop of color and I'd love to see someone highlight it wearing red heels! Footwear was the toughest part of wearing the dress - I went with black boots but think maybe pink or navy heels would be better. The slits are a little high for my comfort at work, but not enough that I pinned or tacked them up. I just managed sitting carefully- because I can't see the back slits, it might've been an issue but 🤷‍♀️. I would absolutely buy this and wear it as often as I could if it more in my price range. I'm contemplating a career change just to buy it (: It's THAT good. I know some aren't a fan of the traditional shell/sheath neckline- try it with a collared shirt and it might change your mind. In my mind, sheath dresses and shells are the female equivalent of men's suitwear for professional settings, so a crisp, starched collar might change your mind about these kinds of collars. A silk one softens the look just a touch. 34D, 5'8 and 145ish in these photos wearing a size 10 Monse sheath dress (wearing a size 10 in most brands currently). Fit was perfect.

LOOOOOOOOVE!!!!

I adored this dress and definitely would call this a compliment magnet. Perfect weight for summer, this dress was very unique but still appropriate for a more conservative work environment. Fit perfectly TTS for me. I needed help getting the zipper up but this one is a hall of fame rental for me!

Flattering and super professional

Got so many compliments around the office. Very flattering while being work-appropriate. One note for larger-chested ladies, there's not a ton of "give" in the chest. I'm a 36DD and was just barely able to zip it.

M🤩NSE- need I say more?!

Came with tags… always a major bonus. Love this designers aesthetic. Usually runs small, so I thought this would fit perfect (4) and it was a touch loose-runs fairly true to size! Many compliments!! Very businesslike with fun twist! The split hemline with waistband makes this dress! It is dark navy pinstripe. Definitely rent this!

This dress was unique and interesting. I wore it for a business conference. It was slightly loose which was okay - I probably could have worn a size 6. But it was comfortable.

Very high neckline so wore it backward

This dress is unique and eye catching, however the neckline is very high and I found it to be irritating. I tried it backward, tucked the pocket flaps in, and paired it with a mock turtleneck bodysuit underneath (because it’s winter here in the NorthEast) and red boots and it was ultimately a huge hit. Definitely worth renting but it may require some experimenting with styling to get it right. It fits TTS and while the material has a little bit of give it would not have fit me if I had sized down - also, the chest area is quite fitted so may need to size up for a larger chest.

Really wanted to love but it’s not quite there

Hmmm, I really want to love this one. I was so excited to rent it. I love the pattern, the unique style, the interesting hem. I love all of it in theory but it slightly misses the mark. Some of it might be the length. At 5'7, I'm finding myself wishing it was either a tad shorter or a bit longer. Also, you can't really tell from his photo, but the additional fabric on the inside of the dress in the upper chest area is visible and creates a lumpy look in a place where you obviously want it smooth. I can't get past how distracting that is. It's also a very lightweight dress, which I don't mind necessarily, but I think I was expecting something more seasonal. Size wise, I’d say it fits TTS, if not a tad large. I’m between a 2 and a 4 and the 2 fine with a bit of room. All in all, I'd say it's definitely worth a try, just maybe lower expectations.

Interesting, but just a little off

When I first tried this on, I wasn’t sure it was going to work. It seemed to fit on top, but looked loose at the waist and hips. I ended up putting a white shirt underneath and that alleviated the “hangy” look enough to be wearable. I ended up getting a lot of compliments and might rent again later in a smaller size. I would agree with other reviewers about the high back slit…I also used a safety pin.

Huh…I had higher expectations

I liked the concept of this dress, but am not impressed with the execution. Ironing was challenging because the back surge was puckered. I also didn’t realize (or forgot) that the back slit is super high until a strong breeze hit while I was walking in front of reflective windows and I got a glimpse of my backside.

Suits You!

I love the style of this dress that looks like several different patterns from suits. I wish it was lined, especially since it is a very expensive number. It is a cute and different dress, with the atypical hemline. The chest was tight for me, but I have a broad back and fuller bust. Cute look for a one time rental.

RTR Team Review

Such a fun twist on traditional work dress! It has a side zipper and the left shoulder is all buttons so you don't have to put the style over your head which I always love. It does run on the smaller side especially if you have a larger chest so I would recommend sizing up! Would look fabulous with a kitten heel :)
