Cute dress!
I'm a big fan of Lilly P., and this dress did not disappoint. It's a very cute, bright, perfect summer dress. I would definitely say it's more on the casual side, perfect for brunch with the girls or for a casual post-beach dinner. It's also very comfortable since there is some stretch in the back. I also wanted to note that I could easily wear it without a bra, and I'm a 38DD.

Underwhelmed.
I was shocked that anyone would pay several hundred dollars for this dress. Maybe it was just ready to be retired, but I was not impressed by the fit or the quality of the fabric. I also think it was a little on the short side, and I'm only 5'2. I also don't think it's flattering if you're larger on top.

Gorgeous dress
Unfortunately, I was unable to wear this dress since it was too small, but I would definitely rent it again in the right size. I think I would consider sizing up for a backup size since there is no stretch in this material. It's very pretty, though, and hope to rent it again.

Feeling great in Lilly P.
Absolutely love this dress. I wore it out to dinner with my husband on a trip to DC. I've kept it at home for now, and might just have to buy it! I think you could dress it up or down, but the fabric does feel a little more on the casual side to me. Perfect summer dress!

LOVE
This dress is perfect. Very flattering, love the pockets, super comfortable, fits true-to-size, and even has a little give since there's elastic in the back. I actually did not end up wearing it because it was a back-up dress, but I wish I did have a reason to wear it! It's in my saved folder, and I can't wait to rent it again for something.

Didn't love it.
This dress was confusing to put on. I did not end up wearing it. It was also more greenish in color (I thought it was navy blue.) I would also say that it runs small, so size up. It might be nice for a holiday party.

Beautiful dress
The dress was great and very pretty, and I got lots of compliments. I did feel that the zipper was very hard to pull up, though, and it fit me a little awkwardly since I have a short torso. There was plenty of room in the bust area, maybe even a little loose, but that still worked fine for me. I think I would rent it again, but maybe try a size up.

Vintage-inspired, romantic, perfection.
I rented these earrings for my bridal portraits and couldn't be happier. I am also renting them with the matching bracelet for my April 2014 wedding.

Shoshanna does it again!
I had been wanting to rent this dress for a while and when I got invited to a May wedding, I knew it would be the perfect opportunity. This dress was super comfortable and I loved the pockets! I would definitely recommend this dress and wouldn't mind renting it again myself. Very flattering!

Love Shoshanna!
I loved the color and quality of this dress as well as the pockets. I'm a big Shoshanna fan and generally these dresses fit very true-to-size, however, with this particular dress, I kind of wish I went up one size. It was a little snug in the bust area, but fit great everywhere else. I would definitely recommend this one and I wouldn't mind renting it again myself :)

Love Shoshanna!
Shoshanna is my go-to designer lately whenever I need a dress for a special event. I rented this dress for a September wedding and it was the perfect look. The fit was great and comfortable for sitting, standing, and dancing. I also loved the pockets of course. Beautifully made, love the lace.

Pretty dress..
But not ideal for a girl with a shorter torso. I rented this dress as a backup for a spring wedding in Columbia, SC. The dress was beautiful and fit okay on the bottom, however, the top was way too big. I have a shorter torso so the top just didn't work for me.

I love a dress with pockets!
I recently wore this dress for a Navy ball and it worked out perfectly. The color was bold and bright and the quality of the dress was impeccable. I love Shoshanna dresses and have never had a bad experience. From the several that I have worn, they all seem to pretty much run true to size. I would definitely recommend this dress.

Great New Year's dress!
I've rented this dress twice now, once for a holiday party and again for New Year's. I ended up getting it as a backup since the original dress that I rented for NYE didn't work out. I was happy to know that this dress worked because I had worn it before. The only thing I don't love about the dress is that the top half is a little on the long side. I have a shorter torso and this style is a little awkward, but I was able to make it work both times. I also love the fabric and the sparkles and the cute bow on the back.

Love the sparkles!
I've rented other Milly dresses before, but the top on this particular style seemed to run very small. I love the fabric and sparkle accents, however, I was unable to wear it. Still a great dress though and If you are larger on top, I would recommend sizing up.

Nice colors and lightweight dress...
I wasn't overly impressed with this dress. I rented it to wear for New Year's and it's a good thing I had a back-up dress because this one didn't make the cut. I really did like the color and loved the gold accents, but the material was very lightweight, too much so for end of December in NY. It was also very big on me, I probably could've gotten away with going one or two sizes smaller. I would definitely size down if you are ordering a back up size in this dress.

Great dress for winter formal event.
I wore this dress for an annual benefit gala and loved it. The fit was perfect and I loved how the chiffon gave it a flowy, romantic touch. I also loved how the hem along the bottom of the dress was ruffled. I'm 5'2 and wore the 10R and the length was perfect with 4" heels. I would definitely recommend this dress!

The perfect dress for a fall wedding.
Even though I ordered a back-up dress, I knew I would love this one. It is very me from the fit to the color and I was very happy with it. I wore the dress for my boyfriend's brother's wedding and I got lots of compliments on it. I highly recommend this dress and RTR. I have already put in another order for a holiday party that we are attending. If you are unsure of sizing, I recommend finding a website that has the designer's size chart and comparing you measurements; it helped me find the perfect fit.

Great dress.
I really loved the look and the color of this dress, however, at 5'2, it was a little too long for my taste. I also think that I could've gone down a size because it was baggy throughout. Luckily I had ordered a back-up dress and ended up going with the navy Shoshonna 'LIz Love Dot Dress'. Overall, great service and I have already put in another order for another event.
