Took a chance on this one, and I’m so glad I did! I wore it to a wedding anniversary dinner and absolutely loved the look. The fit seemed designed for a fuller bust than mine, but nothing a little boob insert couldn’t fix—lol.

The low back on this dress is stunning and sexy. Wore to a black tie event, paired with pumps, leather jacket and a slick back bun. Perfect! 

I wore this to my husband’s work party it was sexy yet modest.  I’m 5’8” and it hit mid calf so I think this best for my height or taller.  I’m a 34DD so the larger size fit with a little room in the waist but I could have worn an 8.

I am b/w Size 4-6. I've got hips & bootie which this small/size 4 fit like a glove around. One side of chest kept poofing out so I kept pulling dress down. But still stunning! Also warm!! I wore when real feel temps were 5°F and when taking pix outside for a hot moment I wasn't cold. Dress is well lined and heavy fabric. I didn't want to send back! One of my faves! Compliments all night and online 

Just perfect! Classic, sexy, fun, petite friendly! 💃🏽

I loved this dress. It made me feel so chic! And it was perfect for a black tie optional New York City wedding. I ended up wearing the back up size, so I was glad I ordered it. To be fair, both sizes "fit"--the smaller just fit better. I think the dress runs a tiny bit big. I recommend going on the Milly website and seeing their exact measurements for hips-waist-bust to get the best size. I ended up feeling like I didn't need a bra, but choose your own adventure on that! The dress was easy to dance in, pretty comfortable, and made for a fun night! 

I'm usually a size 4 and this 4 fit perfectly! I was pleasantly surprised by how flexible the material was--able to dance, move, and breathe without any problem. Can't wear a bra, so I went with some pasties; they did the job. Felt elegant but also stylish. Great dress!

Wore this for my graduation photo shoot. I am bvery pear shaped and this fit me perfectly!

Such a beautiful dress! Wore it to the Duke's Mansion in NC for a wedding. Didn't wear a bra- wore pasties. Was a good dancing dress. Still obsessed 

Wore for a wedding and was obsessed. The cut is flattering in the front but not overly special, which perfectly complements the beautiful deep cut in the back. 

I was worried I wouldn't like the bottom of the dress but the flow is super pretty and the fit was perfect. 

It was a fun dress!  Pretty elegant from the front and a little sass from the back.

I bought it. So flattering and comfortable. 

Wore this to a formal gala in Thailand where it’s hot and humid. The perfect sleeveless and backless style was perfect for the hot weather and the fabric wasn’t too heavy but had some structure to it. 
This dress fit like a glove and snatched me in! 
Loved it! My favorite piece I’ve rented so far!

I often struggle between wanting to feel sexy and yet not wanting to be too exposed in my chest, and this dress was the perfect middle ground. I needed fashion tape on the side boob and the low back makes it hard to wear spanx, but worth it! Dress quality is amazing, dresses by Milly always are…

I wore this dress to a gala dinner and loved it!  It fits so nicely and the material is thick and expensive feeling. It does not wrinkle. I did use some double sided tape around the top just to hold the material down but I didn’t fear anything slipping out. 

I'm between sizes - I'm usually a 4-6 on tops and 6-8 for bottoms. For this dresss, the 8 ended up being way too big on top and I didn't fill out the breast area and left some sagging fabring around my arm pits. So I ended up wearing the 6 even though it was a little tight around the butt because the stretch lines around my thighs were better than gaping cups.  Note, I'm 5'3" and this was a floor length dress on me. Overall, super happy and I got a few compliments 😄

Nice quality and fantastic fit and very flattering.

The dress was amazing and fit true to size. You will probably need to use some boob tape on the sides to be safe. The dress was easy to move in and had a beautiful open back.

This dress was so comfortable. I loved wearing it and wish that I had a better picture. The back is open and low cut, so a bra is out of the question. The skirt is full and added such a nice flow to the look. It is a really good all around black dress that would work for a variety of occasions. It is on my list to purchase! I also must mention that I made a mistake and ordered this dress for the wrong weekend. It ended up arriving very early, so I was able to wear it to my event. Thank you RTR.
