Love this dress!!!! It has pockets too. Very flattering. If I didn't live in such a hot humid area I would have kept the dress.

Inner lining issues
Great dress, perfect for spring and summer. Unfortunately the lining kept riding up and rolling over the neckline. Otherwise I'd have bought it.

The dress is beautiful. Big flowing sleeves are very romantic. This would work well for the naked trend, not just a beach coverup. I would have bought it, but it irritated my skin.

Zipper rolled and bunched
I LOVE Halston, but this dress fell short. There were so many layers of fabric the zipper was nearly impossible. Then once it was, the back rolled and bunched and I couldn’t wear it.

Only the zipper is a drawback
Weird pockets… and the back zipper traps you in it until someone lets you out. Lol Must go to the bathroom with a friend, unless you’re more flexible than most But it makes your tits just as good as you want.

You must have confidence to wear this dress. The back is amazing but the straps can be a little awkward. I got a mixed bag of both compliments and side-eye at a formal wedding. I loved this dress

The fit and style were great except that it gapped/bunched above my bust and below my shoulders. When my husband mentioned it I knew it was too much

frosted cake
It has pockets, but I felt like an oversized frosted cake in this confection. Other people seemed to like it though, so maybe it's just me. I will say that the top was perfect for my ribcage and had a little more space in the cups but didn't look out of place on me either.

the lining shows
I tried steaming the dress as another renter recommended but it didn't help that the lining kept showing in the skirt. To tell the truth no one cared, but it would prevent me from buying the dress

Impossible to zip
The dress is actually navy blue and gold, not black as I mistakenly thought. The neckline is perfect and the brocade is incredible. The problem is the zipper will ABSOLUTELY not get past the waist seam due to the bunching of the fabric when it's on a person, it works perfect on a hanger because the seams twist out of the way when you are zipping the dress. I was so incredibly disappointed.

no pockets
One of the only Monique Lhuillier gowns I've ever rented that didn't have pockets. Love the high/low hem. It makes for easy dancing and walking. The ribcage was too snug for me, but I'm a box, no waist curve at all.

Very Long
Perfect fit. Plunging back is easy on the bust and ribcage sizing. The slit is the perfect length and height. The length was only about 6 inches longer than my toes unfortunately. I don't know where to buy platforms that large or would want to walk in them anyway.

long, very long
The sheer portion of the legs isn't noticeable under normal circumstances. It came up to high/mid thigh, if you're worried. I would have needed platform heels to get the length to work. The straps were very comfortable, not scratchy at all. Last, but not least, the ribcage fit was incredibly tight. For the XXL you'd need no larger than a 36 inch rib measurement (not the same as your bra measurement). Otherwise, it's even more beautiful in person than in the photos.

love Halston
This dress is great... if you remove the tack (tiny stitches keeping it together) someone put in the top. I don't know if it was the designer or a previous renter. The tack isn't necessary for the design and makes the fit all wrong. Floor length in heels for my short frame. I couldn't get a photo that did it justice.

The fit of this gown just makes you exude confidence. The drape is flattering and the asymmetrical hem makes it easy to wear, walk, and dance in. I never had to worry about the dress shifting or feeling exposed. I want a reason to rent this again!!

weird strap fit
The pictures show how the straps are attached. The feel of them is just awkward, or at least was for me. Size up if you're curvy to achieve the right drape of the fabric. Subtle leopard print is more visible in person.

PERFECT
The best description I can give of the color is chocolate grey, rather like the color of a dark Weimaraner. The flow of the dress is very flattering. This designer knows a real woman's body shape, not just small or large, but actual dimension. This gives one the confidence for any situation.

At 5'2", even in heels, I had a lovely train instead of a floor length skirt. I loved the look of this dress and how I felt in it. So many compliments!! The only curiosity was why it didn't have pockets.

Lightweight
Nude undergarments are a must. The cotton is quilters weight, not t-shirt or heavier weave. Be prepared to steam or iron it upon arrival, it wrinkles something awful. The color is amazing, and it has pockets!! Choose your size based on shoulders and bust otherwise it can be a bit constraining.

Loved the fabric and skirt flair. Well fitted through the bust and waist. No matter how the straps were adjusted they kept falling down. Drove me to distraction!! I eventually stuffed them in the bodice.

I used a skinny belt to define the bust. It otherwise looked and felt like a cotton sack. The fabric was very cool for a hot vacation and I loved the pattern, but not one I'd rent again.

The top was a bit loose, but the silicon strip kept it from going anywhere. It has coverage but no support. The waist was a bit more fitted than expected based on the top. Good length, not hitting the floor like on the model.
