Compliments all evening!
This dress was the perfect choice for a black tie wedding. Typically I am a 4L but sized up for extra length in the 6L. The bow in the back has snaps but my tip for this dress is with two small safety pins - pin the bow to keep flat and in place. Thankfully you don't have to worry about anyone making a perfect bow.

Fit like a glove!
Ordered the 4R and 6R and went with the 4R for a more snug fit. I am 5'10 and you can see the dress didn't touch the ground with my heel choice - not problematic for me. The slit is something to be mindful of when sitting. Would recommend renting this dress!

Made for a black tie affair
I am 5'9 with a curvy/athletic figure. I wore the 2L in this gown with 3 inch heels. I prefer to wear this brand as they always are long enough and fit perfect. The gown had a bit of a train which was perfect for a black tie. The back for the dress is beautiful with a lower back meeting the zipper. Also, the dress has pockets can't go wrong. The overwhelming number of responses from folks at the event and social media solidified even more why it's always a good idea to go with ML Monique Lhuillier

Compliments every time I turned around
This dress was just stunning. I am 5'9 and was wearing the 2L and maybe could have gone down a size. The dress was worn to a black tie and people were thrilled to not see a black dress but a pop of color. I cannot say enough great things about this - the back was also very classy with the little pop of skin and the train.

People loved the sparkle
This dress was perfect for a holiday party in Nashville. I'm almost 5'10 and was able to wear a size 2 as seen here. I had no problems with scratchy sequins under the arms for the duration of wearing the dress. It's comfortable, formal, but still has structure to the dress. You can very easily wear a bra or not with this dress. The length was perfect with heels. I received a lot of compliments on how modest but sexy the dress was. So hard to make this return! (I'm also still on the fence of what color the dress really is)

Perfect fit
This dress couldn't have fit better! The dress was only available in one size so I took the chance and rented it in the size 2 as seen. The dress is lightweight and most spandex material. I am 5'9 and had no issues fitting into the dress. The straps have a little elastic lining in them to keep in place. I feel the dress was long enough to keep it classy in a wedding environment. I had zero issues with this and would recommend renting in a heartbeat. Off the shoulder is in!
Garden Bouquet Dress

Odd material & fit
I selected this dress based on the cut, color, and style. I am 5'9 and have a smaller rub cage so can typically do a 2 but the rental was not available so I opted for the 4 as seen. In the picture you can tell the bottom of this gorgeous gown is so strange. It sits very oddly in shape to my figure. There is not elastic on the sleeves so keeping it up will be an issue if the dress doesn't fit properly. This dress would be precious with a new shape to the bottom. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend renting this dress.

Soft to touch gown
This is a beautiful dress and fits just as shown on model. Because of my height I didn't feel comfortable wearing to event. I happened to be in NYC and was able to run into store to exchange.

Perfect gown for Junior League Ball in Nashville
The original dresses selected kept not working out. I contacted a stylist at RTR who quickly was able to send options and ultimately helped me select this gown. This gorgeous dress has very soft material but is somewhat heavy on the bottom-which I truly believe is a plus because the gown stays in place. Being 5'9 I am always concerned with length of gowns and this was perfect! In this gown I was able to wear a regular bra with the lines of the gown. Perfect for a very formal occasion. Can't wait to wear again!!

Classy!
I am very thankful for the customer service of RTR providing me with options when my first dress pick was not available. Marchesa Notte is always a fabulous idea to rent. I'm 5'10 and didn't have any stress with the length of the dress to a formal event. The gold detailing really set the dress apart-the sleeves it keeps things modest-the way the material hits at the mid section is very flattering making for a great curve fitting situation for those of us with hips.

Perfect fit-a must rent!
The original dress I had selected I did not feel comfortable enough in the length. Thankfully, I was out of town for the even I ordered the dress for and was able to go into the on-site store in NYC. The folks there were very hospitable with my needs and quickly identifying me this dress to rent. It literally fit like a glove, I am 5'9 and the 2R fit perfect in length and shape. I received complements all night!! You cannot go wrong with this fit!

Great fit!
Very light weight dress for any summer/fall occasion. Take into consideration the size of your bust/rib cage when ordering dress-this is the only part that's really fitted. Most likely, could have gone down a size. Several people stopped recognizing our First Lady wearing the dress before. Definitely worth renting to stand out with a classy occasion.
