Beautiful! Small through shoulders.
This dress is lightweight and the cut of it is beautiful. I thought the fit was strange in the top. It was tight through the shoulders, even when I sized up. I wore with a leather jacket..so that didn't end up being a problem.

Beautiful dress for a formal affair. Danger - curves ahead.
This dress has a beautiful shape to it! Absolutely gorgeous. Black trim offers more shape and detail. Would absolutely recommend. I am 5'7" and the L length was perfect (I wore shorter wedges too!).

The print is simply stunning!
Such a beautiful dress. The ruffle detail and the print are stunning. The keyhole at the neck stretched out a little over the course of the night. Fabric is comfortable, but very form fitting.

True to size - for sleeves.
Beautiful fabric. Vibrant color red. This dress is luxe! I did not end up wearing this dress because I rented another dress that I preferred. The box skirt detail would be very flattering on an apple/pear shape. This is a true A-line with full skirt. Sleeves have NO stretch, which is why I say that sizing down would be a problem (even if you had a smaller chest). Very pretty dress. Would rent this for a Christmas party in an instant.

Red Contrast Top Ballerina Dress
ML Monique Lhuillier
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 18

Thick fabric. Ran large. Vibrant color and stunning lace detail!
This dress was a stunning color! Rented this for an afternoon wedding, but unfortunately didn't end up wearing because it was too large in the back/shoulders. Lace detail is beautiful and the length is conservative, especially for a plus girl who doesn't like to show too much leg! There is no stretch in this dress! So check your measurements. The keyhole in the back is different plus size vs. misses, so no fear about that. Would recommend because it is so luxe, and I might rent this again in a smaller size.

Fit and flare is FLATTERING.
Rented this as a back up (thought the weather might be cool enough to need a sleeve), so unfortunately didn't get to wear this. The fabric is a cotton blend, so it looks a little "cheaper" than I'm used to with a RTR rental. The shape / fit of this dress is SO flattering. I would rent this again for another event. Would recommend highly to anyone looking to camouflage their midsection. This dress is super sexy on the side and back. Need a strapless bra or clear straps because the lace detail is sheer in the front. There is nude fabric under the lace in the back. Can I say how flattering this dress was again?

Stunning detail.
The color on this dress is gorgeous and vibrant. Lace fabric and faux "cut out" at waist is LUXE! Length is conservative. Absolutely stunning!

Sheer Lace Sheath
ML Monique Lhuillier
Size Worn: 22W
Usual Size: 18

Cool and Comfortable!
This dress is a bit casual for a wedding! I was worried about the cream color being too "white", but the flower print on this dress is gorgeous. In my case, it ran big. I absolutely could have worn a smaller size. A few cons: the print does not do a great job camouflaging the mid-section. Also, the dress wrinkles quickly...especially after sitting down. The sleeves are a lot shorter than in the photo, so if you like to cover your arms, this may not be the dress for you. Got lots of compliments on this dress! Wasn't my first choice, but since it was super hot the day of the wedding, I was glad to have this as a back up. It was cool and comfortable. Would absolutely recommend, especially for a function during the day.

Got lots of compliments on this dress!
Lots of compliments on this dress - especially on the vibrant color. I wore this for a work dinner (fairly formal). While most everyone else was wearing black - this really stood out. Dress had some definite "wear and tear" issues...small tears in the lace overlay. No one noticed they were there, but I knew it. Not used to having condition issues, even with a "rental".

Great texture and true to size!
Beautiful dress with lots of detail when you get it in person. I ended up wearing another dress, but I WILL rent this for a future event. Great sleeves to cover anything you don't like about your arms. More feminine than goth (I think the way it photographed on the website is a little more "fishnet" looking than in person! Great fit especially is you need the room of a true size 22!

Runs big - I wore a size down from what I would normally wear. Much better fit overall. This is the 2nd dress that I've rented from this designer and they were both great, well fitting. Lots of compliments on the color.

GOREOUS! Nice stretch to it lots of room! LOVE IT! Color is perfect for an evening affair.
Complicated closure in the back (hubby struggled to zip / hook this one up). Lace detail gorgeous. Nice stretch - I would recommend ordering a size down. Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous! I would rent this dress again in a heart beat - or pay to own it!

.
Dress was so short. Because a 22W doesn't come in a long length, I had no choice. Would be ok with short heels, but I'm 5'8" and I'd say the dress seemed almost ankle length - barefoot.

Fit was beautiful - extends to up to 20" which was perfect for me!
Jewel popped off and needed to be fixed by a jeweler when I received the necklace. Plating worn off and my neck was GREEN by the end of the night. Got tons of compliments - it is a special necklace! this necklace was the perfect length; I needed a 20" chain and this was the perfect fit for me!
