Beautiful structure and drape
Loved this dress and would rent it again. It's structured, which I appreciate and has beautiful drape to it. I received a lot of compliments. And it has pockets!

Too tight
I have worn numerous Badgley Mischka dresses in the past and this one was off sizing wise to all the others I'd worn previously. Too tight to even wear.

Too heavy and boxy - didn't wear it.
Didn't care for this dress. The fabric is very heavy and it's not flattering for a trim figure. Boxy.

Beautiful dress for a formal wedding in FL
I wore the 6L with 3 inch heels and it just grazed the floor.

Lovely, feminine dress. Would rent it again.
Fit true to size. Flower details were very pretty. Received compliments and enjoyed wearing such a pretty dress.

Beautiful dress that stands out in a crowd
This is a lovely dress for a black tie event. I wore it to an event that had about 250 people there and three ladies separately told me that I had the best dress of the evening! Fits really nicely and the sequins are really pretty. Comfortable for moving around and dancing, too.

Beautiful dress
Loved this dress. The lace overlay is beautiful. As some others mentioned, the skirt is very full, so maybe not for someone looking for a very slim silhouette. Also, the top is fitted and without give so probably better for A/B cups. 6L was a great length for me at 5'9". I wore a short heel with it and the skirt just skimmed the floor.

The cut and fabric were great
Overall, I like the cut of the dress and the fabric a lot, but at 5'9", this dress was a bit short, making it risky getting in and out of the car and sitting down! I'd rent Milly again, but if the dress were a little longer. If I were 5'7" or shorter it would have been 5 stars. Also, I found it ran a little small and wore the back-up size up that I got.

Pretty and conservative
The fabric is very pretty - large flowers with a sheen to the material. However, I didn't love the sheen although it makes the fabric dressier looking. Also, I'd say the overall cut was very conservative, which you may or may not like depending on your event. I wanted to be more wowed by this dress than I was.

Beautiful color and nice fit.
I really enjoyed wearing this dress and got lots of compliments. It's a beautiful color blue in person and the drape is gorgeous. I am 5'9" and wore a low heeled shoe - about 2 inches and that was perfect for the dress to just skim the floor. I would rent this dress again.

Chic and fun
This is a great looking dress in person. The fabric is structured and the fit of the dress has shape to it, without a lot of give. I'm small in the bust and tall and thin, and I can see where more buxom gals would not be comfortable in this dress. I disagree with the stylists notes to size down. I normally wear a size 6 and could have gotten away with it, but it would have been restrictive making for an uncomfortable night. The backup size 8 gave me the right amount of room where I needed it. If you are a lean figure, it's a great dress.

Comfortable and cute
I really enjoyed wearing this dress. So much so that I looked online afterwards to see if it was still available to buy! The dress was very comfortable to wear. I was concerned when I saw it on RTR that it might be warm for a summer night (72 degrees) given the longer sleeves, but the material is lightweight so it was very breathable and comfortable to move in. I got a number of compliments and thought it was a perfect summer dress for a dinner being held outside. Would rent it again.

Pretty and feminine dress
This dress is very pretty, elegant and looks as it does on the website. I typically wear a size 6, but Catherine Deane definitely runs small. I could not even zipper the size 6 closed and ended up wearing the back-up size 8, which pretty much fit me like a glove. I loved the look and quality of the dress. The only negative was that the lace seemed to have shrunk up slightly above the lining, which I assume happened from prior dry cleanings, so I had to tug at the lace when I stood up to pull it down and into shape. Regardless, this was my first RTR experience and I look forward to my next rental (arriving this week!). I love the concept of being able to rent a variety of dresses all from my home, while not having to spend time going out shopping for them and then keeping them in my closet! Bravo!
