Great fabric and fit well. Highly recommend!

Highlights = pockets; waist detail; long enough that I could wear comfortable flats without them showing (and without me tripping); very comfortable dress generally; modest enough for work occasion.  (I am an event planner for my job so was running around a lot, wearing a radio, carrying things, etc so these were all major pros for me)  And got lots of compliments, which is always nice!
Cons = couldn't wear a bra because of the open back and because this was a last minute replacement for a different dress that wasn't available at the last minute, so I didn't have time to figure that out.  Not a big deal, but I think it would have looked better with something, plus I'd have been a bit more comfortable running around with the support.

I loved the dress overall but It was a bit tight around the waist.  It wasn't uncomfortable just a little snug.  I received several compliments and felt beautiful.  

I wore this dress to a Mardi Gras ball and got so many compliments. It's a flattering shape and the pockets made it easy to stash my lipstick. I have a rather large chest so finding dresses that are fun but still classy is sometimes a struggle. This one was perfect! The 6R fit my 5'5, 34DDD frame without being too tight. My only concern is that it was too short for heels (which, lets be honest- dancing in sandals is better anyways) 

This dress was amazing! I would have kept this in a heartbeat! Outstanding quality, great fit. The open back adds a hint of sexy and the pockets are always fun. For a larger-chested girl, the bra situation was a little difficult, but nothing a little pins andcreativity couldn't solve. The only downside was the super plasticy, chemical smell of the dress. Definitely had to give it a good sprucing up with some body spray. Other than that, this dress is outstanding!

I loved this dress. So comfortable. The pockets are amazing. The fabric is thick and hangs beautifully. I am bery small up top both breasts and waist but larger in the hips and thighs. I usually wear size 6 but since this dress doesnt fit around the hips i got a 4 and it was perfect. Big in the chest area but still went braless and felt confident. 

Great dress- this was my back up dress when the original didn’t ship- was a bit bummed as I didn’t realize that it was sent until after it shipped- regardless loved the dress. The dress fit like a dream and I received a ton of compliments; wore this for a New Year’s Eve masquerade, so I added elbow length gloves to finish the ensemble with the mask. If you’re like me and doing the solo dressing routine be sure that you try it on BEFORE your event. Difficulty with this dress was the zipper- trying to get it zipped through the beading detail will definitely try your patience- therefore I’m glad I tried it a day before to know what to work though. The beading on the 0L was missing a bit and loose on the front edge but nothing noticeable on the missing beading and nothing a good tack job wouldn’t overcome. Looked amazing and bonus it has pockets! Only  sad note was I saw someone else in this same exact dress... thank goodness she was on the other side of the hall but seriously what are the chances?!?

I loved this dress and had a wonderful time wearing it. The pockets were an incredible bonus, the fit was soooo fun and super comfortable even after several drinks and dinner. The bell of the skirt allowed me to wear a bright red flat as my shoe which offered comfort all night and a pop of color whenever my toe popped out. I was glamorous and so so comfortable which is such a rare combination for me at least. I accessorized with a dangly black and white earring and the pop of color shoe. I chose to wear my hair up to show off the open back. I am a DD bust and did not need to wear a bra with the gown. again. I have never felt so comfy and simultaneously chic at the same time possibly ever. I do think the gown may run small, so size up but I highly recommend. 

This dress is so beautiful, I felt so good in it all night long (especially since I kept getting complimented on it). The pockets were perfect to keep my lipstick and they also made me feel a little casual in a good way - if that makes any sense? I loved being able to casually slip my hands in the pockets of this gorgeous gown. Fun! The size 4R did fit a bit tight up top but I didn't mind as it held the girls in place (no bra with this dress). I'm 5'6", 138 lbs. 30DDD 

Fit true to size, loved the open back detail and the pockets! 

I loved everything about the dress, the options, the fits and  the process to order it! Thank you! I’ve been advertising freely ever since!! 

True to size. Compliments all night. I loved how classy it was. This was my replacement to the dress and I am so happy they sent this one! I loved the bottom and how much room I had in it. It took a couple of times to try it on to figure out the top part. I loved how open the back was. 

This was the perfect dress for a black tie charity gala. The fabric is thick and luxurious and pockets were a plus. The criss-cross back added an interesting element and I got compliments all night. Highly recommend this dress. PS - rent the Long if you're 5'6"+ with heels.

This dress fit absolutely perfect. I ordered a 4 and 6 and the 6 ended up working out. I was scared the top part would be too baggy because that's what a lot of the reviews said, but I wear a 34B bra size and the top fit absolutely perfectly with my stick on bra. The beaded waste line was so flattering, the length was perfect with my flats on, and the back design was absolutely stunning. I felt like the prettiest girl in the whole room. Not one bad thing to say!! I wore this dress for the 242nd Marine Corps Ball, and will definitely rent again.

The dress fit perfectly and was very comfortable. The weight of the dress helped it to keep its slimming shape. 

Wore this dress for a ultra black tie cirque-noir-themed charity event. It was perfectly elegant and comfortable. I loved the pockets. The only difference between this rental and the others I've had with the same style is that this particular dress has beading at the waist- so it has absolutely zero give. Otherwise, it's amazing. I received lots of compliments.

I ordered the 4 long to ensure I could wear it with a little heel height for pictures or sneaky tennis shoes underneath for dancing. The only drawback was that it was slightly too big on the sides, under my arms. 

It's a beautiful dress, great detail and the back is fabulous. Very comfortable also!

Cons- the waistline is tight and tiny. I am usually a 4 or 6 and the 4 waistline was way too tight- the 6 waistline fit great but the top was a little big because it was the 6.

Overall still very comfy, elegant and beautiful! 

A little long for dancing, orange string in the back were a bit annoying. It was a stellar dress than accentuated curves, made me feel tall, and just amazingly beautiful.

The dress for perfectly. I am 5'5" and weigh 120 pounds. I rented a size 2r and 4 as a back up. The 2 for perfectly in all areas. I wore 4 inch heels and the dress did not drag the floor at all. The dress arrived on time and clean. The  only downside is the dress arrived with slight damage at the bottom and some of the beading was a bit loose. The damage was not noticeable for my event because it was an evening event. Overall, I was very satisfied despite these issues and would certainly rent items again. 

I wore this for the regional Emmys and I felt elegant and pretty. I got so many compliments on the dress. My favorite part was the pockets. I was able to keep my phone with me (but hidden) while I was on stage. The fabric was great quality and not too thick for a summer affair. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was how the neckline gapped a bit.  I'm only 5'4 so I'm guessing the design was for someone a bit taller than me. Still looked great and I was comfortable all evening.

I loved this dress!  I felt so dignified and black Tie appropriate.  It was true to size except the back was a little loose.  It needs someone long in the torso.  I got the regular so it stopped just above my shoes. I received endless compliments it was an amazing dress!

Dress is baggy where back straps meet waistline and under armpits, but you can totally get away with it. So comfortable, so flattering, so beautiful, so elegant.

This dress fit true to size! It was unbelievably gorgeous and I received so many wonderful compliments on the dress! I didn't want to night to end! I'm 

I wore this for a gala. I ordered the 4P and 6P vs regular bc I'm 5'0 in stature. I gained weight since my last rental and the dress was perfect for not bringing attention to my problem areas. It was tight around the beaded band area but I received SOOOOO many compliments that night I didn't care! I'm big chested last time I was measured I was a 34D but I'm more like a 34DD

For starters this is an overall good dress, very pretty, did get compliments on it, but I personally had a few issues. First, length, in the pictures of the model it covers her feet, as expected of a long formal dress. I am 5'7" so not that tall, I ordered the Regular length because I was wearing this to a formal event as a volunteer, so I knew I would be on my feet most of the night. It was SHORT, it hit my at my ankles, so no hiding my shoes. Ultimately it didn't stop my from wearing the dress, but it was disappointing. So if you want it to cover your feet, order a Long. Second issue was with the fit, while the waist fit perfect, runs to size, the top does not. I am a 36C/D and the top was loose on me. I found myself adjusting/checking throughout the night to make sure nothing was falling out. Overall I would still recommend this dress, just wanted to give everyone a fair warning of what to expect.  

Love the dress!  It fit great, although a bit difficult to get into.  The zipper on the side can be a bit difficult to zip (even when on the hanger, the zipper itself is just difficult to zip).  This dress is a show stopper for sure though.  It makes such a great statement and I had tons of compliments.

Dress fits like a glove. Low back and details were perfect. Would rent again. 

The fit was great, I felt gorgeous. It definitely hid the bit of baby weight in the stomach I haven't quite lost yet . Overall stunning dress. Negative was I could not wear a bra and the chest area at times looked awkward. 

This was very pretty and perfect for a black tie event. However, the top was very big and didn't look great. And the zipper was almost impossible to get up. My husband and I almost broke our fingers and we're completely frustrated. 

Like some of the other reviews stated, the dress was tight around the waist and too loose at the top. The straps folded at the back of the dress. I am 5'2 and normally dresses are very long, I had to buy lower heels to fit this dress. 

The dress was gorgeous. The length was great. The fit was better than I had ever imagined. Overall the dress was just absolutely beautiful! I highly recommend.

This was not my first, second, or third choice dress for my gala. When my original order arrived, it didn't contain any of the dresses I ordered, and luckily there was this one Monique Lhullier left that they were able to overnight to me. The stylist on the phone just described it to me and I said I'd go for it! It was a little big in the top (Im a 36b), but the length and fit in the waist were perfect. The open back was the best part of the dress, and I received lots of compliments. It was comfortable despite the Georgia humidity, and I felt elegant. 

I purposely ordered the 4P in this dress so I didn't have to wear heels and it worked perfectly! I'm 5'3, 135lbs and it came right to the ground, not too long and not too short. The there was a little extra room in the back area where it puckered out a bit, but nothing a little fashion tape or safety pin can't fix! 

This was a great dress- lots of compliments. The side zipper was very hard to zip up on my own. I normally wear between a 10 and 12. Needed to up to a 14 and still had some trouble. 

Fits me well. Good choice for a pear body-shape. Delivery system could have been better. ( 2 friends of mine did not receive their dresses on time. I had to pick it up at the delivery  center to avoid the risk.)

It is a stunning dress and I received lots of compliments. Both the 10L and 12L fit nicely, but I opted for the 10L since it was a better fit in the waist (12 was a bit loose). I only wish it were a little bit longer so it could graze the floor - I wore ballet flats and the dress was still an inch or two off the floor. That said, I am 6ft tall, so the L would be just fine for most people. It may be a bit tight in the bust for larger-chested ladies. 

Absolutely loved this dress! I rented it for a formal event on the beach, and I got so many compliments! The open back was gorgeous and airy - since the rest of the dress is a bit thick, I wasn't too hot or too cold. I usually wear a 4R but decided to also get the 2R as a backup, and then I ended up wearing the 2R anyway because it just fit better in general. It was a little loose in the bust area but fit very well everywhere else, and the length was perfect with 3in heels! The dress was stunning, comfortable, and did I mention it has pockets?? This was my first time using RTR and it did not disappoint! Would definitely recommend.

I rented this for my best friend's prom and it fit perfectly. It was gaping a little on the sides but it really was not noticeable. The length of the dress was perfect ( I am 5'4 & wore 4 inch heels). Overall, I am was so happy with this rental & would rent it again! So beautiful & I loved the back!
