Professional!
I am generally not a big fan of crepe due to how clingy it can be, but I love this dress. It is classy and professional, and just the slightest bit sexy. It has lots of stretch making it comfortable for a busy day. It was little long for my taste, but still an awesome dress.

Sparkly
The dress was much shinier than I expected. I rented it for an event, but it was too fancy. I wore it to work and got tons of compliments. It's pretty and comfortable, just not my favorite rental.

Stunning colors!!
The fabric and the colors on this dress are amazing! I gained a few lbs over the holiday and expected the 10 to be a bit tight, but instead I had room in the hips and the bust. It's very fashion forward, and exactly a piece I'd rent but not buy.

So cute!
I loved the stars! I don't know if it was true to size as I'm not too familiar with European sizing. I did love this dress though. It was a bit restrictive through the arms, but it was cute enough that I didn't mind.

Boring
I didn't love this skirt. The material was kind of thin and it was a bit longer than I'd prefer. It fit well in the waist and through the hip on a pear like me. It was okay, but I wasn't wowed.

Work and play
I wore this for work and then out for a birthday brunch. It's even more beautiful in person. I saw it in the RTR store and made a bee line to the rack. It's a fun twist on a classic menswear piece.

Better than expected
I picked this up at the RTR store, and then let it hang in my closet for a week before even trying it on. It is comfortable, and cute. It's great for every day, but also for date night. I liked the length and the fit. The color was kind of boring even with the subtle shimmer, but all of my coworkers kept telling me how much they loved it.

So unique!
The details on this dress are amazing. I loved that it was fitted enough that I didn't have to wear a bra. The cut is flattering. I did sort of feel like it was 2011 though because it reminded me of the high-low dresses of the day that were sheer maxi's.

I would give this 10 stars if I could!
I felt like Megan Draper in this dress-- mod and gorgeous!! It was a little short for my taste, but with tights it didn't matter. The colors are vibrant and eye catching. The metallic adds a touch of elegance. It doesn't have a lot of shape, but it moves nicely. I would rent this again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend!

Bag
I put this on and it looked like a bag. It was huge and I couldn't wear it. Maybe it would be better for someone taller and thin.

Odd proportions
I read that this piece ran small, and it does! But only in the waist. I found that the waist to hip ratio didn't make a lot of sense. I have a small waist in comparison to my hips and this was too large in the hips and tight in the waist. There's no stretch any wear. The color is very, very beautiful though.

So beautiful I wish I had more places to wear it!
I'm usually a wear once and return ASAP kind of gal. I wore this and couldn't return it. I was trying to come up with more places I could wear it without being overdressed. I wore it to work twice, and I never rewear at work! I also wore it to Christmas Eve with my family. I got tons of complements every time I put it on. I loved the open back, but I just didn't feel like it supported my boobs well enough to not wear a bra. I didn't mind wearing a cami to cover a normal bra.

Meh
I hated the sleeves. It's super clingy. I usually order a large in stretchy stuff, but I read that it ran large so I got the medium. I would have preferred the large. Although it was black, I found it to show every bump and lump I wasn't interested in showing off. My friends told me I looked great, but no complements from strangers.

I loved this dress sooooo much! It was a bit fancier than I expected, but I didn't mind. The details are so intricate. It's a show stopper you won't regret!

No stretch!
I rented this to go our favorite restaurant in Las Vegas. I felt very sexy in it. The color is amazing and the lace is very high quality. There is no stretch and I found that to bother me in the elbows as I was eating. At the end of dinner I was so full I felt like I would pop out of the dress. Again, some stretch would have been nice. Overall, it looked amazing and I felt great in it. I would highly recommend!

Edgy and fun!
I love that it's sequin so it's fancy, but the lips make it fun and edgy. I wanted to pair it with a distressed denim vest, but it was too cold. I wore it with a cardigan and leopard booties. I got tons of compliments! It's short, so I sized up.

Odd proportions
The colors and print on this dress are amazing! I had complete strangers stop me to say how beautiful this dress is. I would have to agree. I found the arms to be a bit long and the waist wasn't quite in the right place for me. Neither of which were deal breakers, but I wasn't very comfortable in it. Looks only: 10/10!

Beautiful color!
I felt vibrant and lovely in this dress! The tie was sort of weird in front, but I made it work. It's short. It is light and comfortable. Not a bad dress overall, but also nothing special.

It's weird and gorgeous!
I have never received so many compliments before! I get lots of compliments on my outfits, but with this one I even had complete strangers tell me how much they loved it. The print is super weird with all of the lizards and birds-- all descendants of dinosaurs! The dress is pretty short and there is no stretch. It's gorgeous and comfortable. I would 100% recommend and I will absolutely be renting again!

A bit more fitted than expected
The color is fantastic!! It's very boobylicious as you can see in the photo. It's a stretchy ribbed knit material. I didn't expect it to be so tight in the bottom half. It didn't feel tight, but I thought the ribbing pulled and emphasized my less than flat tummy. It's not my favorite rental, but I did get compliments on it all day.

Great functional dress. Perfect length. Has pockets. I got lots of compliments followed by, "is it Ted Baker?"

I find Monique dresses tend to run small, but this one fit true to size. There's no stretch in it whatsoever. The colors are great. Super cute!

Black or Navy?
I loved this dress, but I cannot decided for the life of me if it's black or navy. I got tons of compliments. I highly recommend!

Heavy material
It's a perfectly classy LBD that can be worn for work, dinner, date, really whatever. It's got pockets. I liked the dress, but I found it to be too big for me. Since the fabric is super thick and the fit was a bit off, the dress just didn't look that great on me.

Light and airy!
I love the color and comfort. I sized up like many reviews suggested. I found it to be a bit short for how light and airy it is. A small breeze really moves this thing!

All day compliments!
I loved this dress! It was cute and comfortable. My only complaint is it was a bit small in the bust for me. The seam hit too high on me. Other than that I can't say enough good things! Rent it!

Much cuter in person than in photos!
The dress is a thick ponte-like material with a mandarin collar and non usable buttons down the bodice. The scalloped edges are trimmed with a shiny latex coating. When I removed the dress from the bag I actually thought there were sequins on the edges because it's so shiny. I would've sized down had I known what my actual size would be. It's a beautiful dress in person and super comfortable.

Lots of compliments
Elegant dress. I was hoping for a 10, but they only had an 8. It fit, but was a bit snug. I liked the dress, but I found it a bit shorter than I prefer.

Cute but hot
I like this dress, but found the polyester to be a bit warm. The waist is drawstring but also elastic so it stays at the natural waist. It seemed to really gather in the back for me. It wasn't my favorite rental, but good enough for a single wear.

I really liked this dress. It's light weight and easy to wear. It's roomy in the bust and the hips for a shift. I would recommend!

Perfect Easter Dress
Wore this to brunch with my family and it is one of my favorite rentals yet! It's very light without being see through. Although low cut, it's roomy for busty gals. The flared skirt is flattering on larger hips too! I cannot say enough good things about this dress!

Gorgeous embroidery, meh overall
Seeing as I'm usually a 12 and I wore the 16 (it was big), I'd say it probably runs true to size. It is a bit on the short side. The embroidery is so beautiful. I enjoyed wearing it just for every day. I didn't care for it enough to wear to anything special.

It is cute and comfy. It's a bit more cropped than I expected, but I wore it anyway.

Perfect for a family party
It's stylish and conservative-- two things I like when choosing an outfit for a family party. I cuffed up the sleeves just once and tucked the front bit into my jeans to give myself a bit more shape. I paired with distressed skinny jeans to balance out the feminine floral print. It's polyester so it does get a bit warm. Overall, I loved it and would totally recommend to a friend or you!

Unicorn
I rented this for Halloween to be a unicorn. The silver and white sequins worked great! The lining on mine didn't seem to be sewn in straight because after a few steps it was always twisted. It was a little annoying, but it was still a beautiful dress.

Gorgeous!
I loved this top! They forgot to send me the tank underneath, but I paired it with a black one and loved it anyway. Fits true to size in the body and it's roomy in the arms. No stretch.

Too tight in the arms
The sleeves are connected with a small piece of elastic and it looks really awkward. That mixed with it being a bit too tight in the bicep area made me choose to send it back before wearing.

Too busty
Beautiful top! I was hoping I may be able to squeeze the girls into this, but unfortunately it was a bit too snug. Also there were staples and paper on the care label and stabbed me in the side. Rent this if your boobs are not huge.

It made me feel so large!
I can't begin to express my disappointment in this skirt. Two stars for the beautiful, buttery leather, but minus three for fit. I'm a solid 12 or large. Sometimes if something runs small I'll size up to a 14 or XL. Just to be on the safe side I sized up to XXL. That just wasn't enough. I had to shimmy my way into the skirt and suck everything way in while praying to the fashion gods to get it to zip. I succeeded, but I did not think it looked so great. I was going to take this on a business trip, but clearly this isn't going to work out. For reference, the lay flat measurement of the waist on this skirt for the XXL is 15.5".
