This was the most fun party dress I've ever worn. The best part about it was how flattering it was to my figure. I had to pin the top part together so I could be a bit more modest, but everything about it was FUN, FUN, FUN! I loved the pockets (and because of the pleated skirt, you could carry a ton of stuff in the pockets and no one would ever know). I will definately rent this dress again for Christmas parties or summer parties (It can swing both ways!).

Had a blast wearing this dress for my Christmas Party. Some of the sparkles were red in color: so if you added some killer red heels: wow! The dress was comfy, not itchy at all. Some of the sparkles fell off, so be cautious when putting on or taking off coats with the dress. Also, my hair kept getting caught in the sparkles, so if you have a "fragile" hairsyle: you may want to consider an up-do. Loved this dress and got so many compliments (mostly from men!).

I should have ordered a larger size. I ordered a 6 and an 8 (I usually wear a size 8). Both seemed to fit the same: fine on top, but really tight through the seat...so, unfortunately, I didn't wear the dress at all. Had to find something else in my closet for the party. Definately size up for your backup! If you are very curvy, you may want to size up for your main size and then size up again for your backup.

Here's your dress. I Loved wearing this dress and I felt like a million bucks. First of all, wearing a Monique Luhilier is a wonderful experience in itself. Second of all, once your tucked into this dress (I thought it fit a bit snug, but I have a feeling it was ment to be that way), your body will look SMASHING! The curves of the dress are so flattering. The folds in the fabric flow across the body in just the right spots. If this dress came in white, I would want to wear it as a wedding dress! The bust area was a bit hard to zip up (I'm a 34D), but I didnt have to wear a bra and the girls stayed in pace all night, and, because I didnt have to wear a bra, I didn't have to worry about a bra showing in the dress. The dress was long (like I wanted). I wore 5 inch heels and it just skimmed the ground. You'll love wearing this dress!!!!!

I rented this to go with a gold dress from RTR and it worked perfectly, but I also wore it to work the next day with a pink cashmere jewel kneck sweater. It looked completely appropriate in both places. I wish I had this necklace in my own jewelry box: I'd wear it all the time.

I rented this dress for a wedding in October because I thought the color was very Fall-like and I could wear it with black tights to "warm up the look" a bit. I was suprized that the dress is VERY thin, VERY staticky and VERY see through. I enjoyed wearing it, but I would have felt very uncomfortable not wearing any tights under it. I paired it with a gold belt (the tie belt wasn't delivered in the package), black tights and Turquoise earings. If you wear tights or spanks under this dress, be sure you tuck a "static guard" bottle in your purse: you'll have to use it every few hours.

The dress definately was tight in the hip and leg area (as previous reviewers said). I chose to wear the 8 because it gave me another inch or so in length, but the 6 "fit" as well. I think if I wore a 10 the bottom would have fit fine, but the top would have been falling off. I ended up wearing it for a few hours while going out for cocktails, but I will not chose this dress again. It was a risk for me to take in the first place. I've rented at least 15 times from RTR and this is the first time a dress didn't work out perfectly for me, so don't get discouraged.

I wore this dress to a dinner party and it was perfect. Most of the other women were wearing their Little Black Dresses (LBD's), but I refused and was the hit of the night in this spectacular dress. I paired it with black tights: as the event was in January, but it would look so good with bare legs and nude platform pumps. The material was very light and comfortable and would be appropriate for a summer event as well as a winter event. I chose to wear the size 8: it was like it was made for me. I wear a 34DD and I was concerned the bust was going to be snug, but it wasn't: it actually fit perfectly. I also was worried about the shoulders (I have broad shoulders from weight lifting), but they were perfect as well. The size 6 fit as well, but, because it was more form fitting (which I liked the look of), it was much shorter in length. I'm 5'6" and I felt the length was perfect: not so short that I was worried about being a flasher. I paired the dress with diamond hoop earings, no necklace and no bracelet (I was worried a bracelet or a cocktail ring would snag on the lace detail on the dress). I loved wearing this dress. I love RTR!.

I rented this dress because the dress I wanted became unavailable at the last minute. I was very happ with the dress. Very light fabric and it is very stretchy. The 8 and the 6 both fit almost the same (which is why I say it runs large: no way I can actually wear a 6), so I decided to wear the 8 because the ruching on the side hit my waist at the perfect spot (the 6 was a bit higher on me). You'll love wearing this dress. Nothing but complements all night.

I was so excited, yet so worried when I committed to this dress. I have recently lost some weight (You'll see on my previous reviews I was a size 12) and haven't purchased new clothes yet, so I had to guess what size I should get. Thanks to all the girls who submitted their reviews and photos: they made a huge difference in my size selections. So, about the dress: I am 5'6", but always wear big heals, so I took a risk and ordered the Long sizes. I wore 4 inch platform heals and the 6L dress was perfect: to the floor, but I didn't have to fuss over it. Now for the fit: I figured that I would wear a 10 in a "normal" dress, so I ordered the 8L and the 6L (because the reviews said it ran large and I was planning on losing a bit more weight between when I placed the order and the day of the event). I tried on the 8L first: It seemed big all over (not crazy big, but just not "fitted"), including the length (It touched the floor when wearing heals, but was just a tad longer than the 6), I felt the extra fabric in the skirt made me look a bit larger than I actually am (or think I am =). I tried on the 6L and it was a bit snug at the waist band (which goes around the rib cage), but, with a pair of high wasted spanx, it wasn't too bad. The draping on the skirt is beautiful. The top was a bit large, so I wore a push up bra and that solved everything. It was like the dress was made just for me. Be ready for TONS of compliments and a lot of fun: this dress is awesome. Also: I danced all night in it: never once did I have to "readjust." If you're thinking about renting it: JUST DO IT! and take TONS of pictures: You'll never forget wearing it and how beautiful you look.

I Loved wearing this dress. I am not a small girl: 5'6" and a size 12 with an hourglass shape. I got this dress in a 12 (worried that it would be too small) and it fit perfectly. The V back didn't lay on my skin the way it does in the model photo (I have a higher natural waist) so it draped away from my back, but it actually gave the dress and even more alluring twist because of it. I wore it with nude heels and a fabulous Necklace from RTR (the Bea Necklace) and they went perfectly together. I wore my shoulder length hair wavy with a navy blue smokey eye: I looked like a movie star and people are still telling me how great I looked that night. One suggestion: make sure you use double sided tape on your shoulders to keep the top in place. Also: for girls like me (I'm a 36D bra) buy the stick on bra: it worked like a charm.

This dress was so much fun to wear. First off: you can wear it with a normal bra: which is awesome for large girls like me. I was also so excited to be able to wear a size smaller than what I had planned. The fit was snug in the hips, fitted at the waist and loose at the top (like it's supposed to be), but, being so curvy, the tighter fit (the 10 as opposed to the 12) looked so much better on me.

I loved this dress so much I didn't want to send it back...but I did anyway. I'm a size 12 with lots of curves and this dress looked stunning on me. I wore it at the Christmas party my husband and I hosted in our home to over 100 people and everyone is still talking about "the Dress" and even people who were not there that evening have seen pictures on facebook and twitter and they love "the Dress" as well. I wore this dress with high waisted Spanx and a regular strapless bra. I'm 5'6" so the dress was about 3-4 inches above my knee. I wore it with nude platform heels and I also wore a large emerald cocktail ring from RTR as well. I wore my hair up loosely and topped it all of with a glass of Champagne in my right hand. Can't wait to rent some more dresses!

Wore this, with a big white hat, to a Kentucky Derby Party. Perfect for the party and the Southern Spring weather. The fit was nice, over the course of the day, it did stretch a bit (which was needed after all the mint juleps). I paired it with turquoise jewelry (which looked AWESOME) and nude wedges. I'm very curvy, so I was worried about the white piping and where it would hit me. The piping hit me in all the right places and actually created a sliming effect. I'm also 5'6" and the dress hit my leg at almost the same spot as the model.

I loved wearing this dress and was suprised that it was so comfortable. The fabric has great flexability and hugged my body in all the right places. I ordered a size 12 and 14 and ended up wearing the size 12. The 12 was very short, but the 14 was way to big everywhere else. I wore it with high wasted spanx, nude shoes and the Plantation earings from RTR. Tons of complements (especially from my husband). Only reason why I gave it 4 stars was because of how short it was on me (and I'm only 5'6"):
