Derby dress!
I wore this to a Kentucky derby party, paired with boots to keep it casual. I also wore a navy blue blazer on and off throughout the day when it was more chilly. The cut of the dress is super flattering, and the midsection swings away from the body, not clingy. It helped hide my baby bump before we were ready to tell people! The only concern is with the asymmetrical hem, the shorter side is SHORT. I ended up having to wear bike shorts underneath because the skirt would pick up in a breeze and I felt like I was flashing everyone. So beware! Great movement, great swing, flattering cut, but maybe a little short.

Showing off my baby bump!
Wore this to a wedding at 29 week's pregnant (2nd pregnancy, even bigger than baby #1!) and this dress had incredible stretch to accommodate the baby bump! Tons and tons of compliments all night long. The dress pattern with the cutouts was super flattering, the shoulder cutouts accented my arms and made me look more athletic. Dress hit me right above the knees, so it was comfortable to sit in and dance in with no issues. The only problem is that the back zipper bunched a bit, but I think that's mostly because the fabric was stretched to fit the bump than anything else.

Kentucky Derby finest! So popular!
I wore this for our annual Kentucky derby party and it was a huge hit! It's great for a summer cocktail party. The high low hem is very flattering and super comfortable. The waistline is a little awkward - too low to be an empire waist and too high to hit the natural waist. As such, since its "mid-rib cage", it tends to bunch up and pucker. My dress was a little tight on me, and it accentuated this awkwardness. I would size up so it lays flat

Classy and sexy!
I did not end up wearing this dress for my event, but it was a close call! This dress is so flattering with the little bit of rouching on the sides. And just the perfect length to be sexy but comfortable!

Perfect wedding dress to elope!
This dress is so flattering and both classy and sexy at the same time! Shorter in the front and very fitted makes for a super flattering and sexy look. The longer back with high neckline and long sleeves is perfect for a winter wedding in Michigan! I received so many compliments from everyone all day long. I could not have asked for a better outfit for my special day! Thank you RTR!

Very eye catching dress! Begs the attention of everyone in the room!
Nicole Miller knows women's bodies!! Everything I've ever worn from this designer has been meticulously crafted to flatter your body. The dress is stretchy and comfortable, easy to dance in. The shoulder straps and sexy back cutout still allow you to wear a normal bra. Clingy material - I recommend Spanx to even out the curves. Good luck!

Tons of compliments! It's truly a stunning dress that catches the eye of everyone in the room!
Fit runs a little on the small size for the body (at least for my hips!). The under sheath is like Spanx, so there's no need to add additional support or restriction. With the way the lace straps are designed, it's completely acceptable to wear a normal bra (with black straps). It's a little hard to dance in, as the under sheath continues to ride up a little bit, but the lacy overlay stays down, so everything is always covered. I also tend to dance with a lot of energy... so it may not be the same for everyone! All in all, stunning dress

Totally Rocked it!
AMAZING dress! I wore this for a wedding, and I was the envy of every girl in the room. I even outshined the bride! (whoops) Perfect LBD - its unique, classy, and subtly sexy... and comfortable to boot! I danced the entire night. Runs a little snug in the hips, so I had to size up. The slit is quite high, so I tended to sit with my jacket over my lap at the church and dinner. I paired with red 4" heels and a red clutch to spice it up a bit too.
