So many compliments!
I wore this dress a couple times - to a wedding and to holiday parties and got so many compliments both from women and men. The fabric is really special. I probably should have sized down to a 4 (my normal size), but it wasn't available. The sleeves were quite long, but I just rolled them up to the inside and they actually stayed put.

Unique design, perfect for fall wedding
This dress fit a little big on me, through the body and in the length. I did get a lot of compliments though so not so big that people noticed.

Stand out!
I wore this to a formal party in Vegas and received a ton of compliments. This isn't a great dress for anyone that has larger than a B cup, and while it runs small, I think the 6 would have fit me better (normally I am a 4/6). I got the 8 because of other reviews, but it was just a little bit loose in the shoulders and body, plus a tad long. Overall still a great dress and had no issues with gaping when I sat down. I wore the silicon pasties just in case anyone could see anything, but never felt over exposed.

Loved this but did not wear
I got this as a backup for a formal event in Vegas. I ended up not wearing it because one of the other dresses fit better, but this was true to size (maybe a little big) and very flattering. Just wanted something that stood out a little bit more for the event so opted not to wear it, but would rent again for the right event.

Total stand out!
I wore this out in Vegas for dinner and a show. I probably could have worn the 4 (normal size) but it wasn't available. I got so many compliments on this and was very comfortable in it. I thought the length on the shorts was perfect, not too short and hit just in the right spot. I have a very small chest (34A/B) and just wore the silicon stick ons and had no problem with the chest area.

Did not wear but liked the idea of it
The leg length was ok for me, but I have a slightly long torso and the bodice didn't fit correctly so I ended up not wearing this.

Light, comfortable and cute!
This ran a little short on me - too short to wear to work casually but fine for brunch with friends. Good for really hot days, material is very light and sleeves were comfortable.

Cute on the model, not on me
Normally I am a 4-6 in DVF so the S should have worked. I thought the stretchiness would also make this flattering so long as the shoulders fit me, but I had an issue with the hips gaping out. I am narrow through the hips, but because of the cut of the dress and the relative stiffness of the material it just didn't work on me. I also have a long torso so maybe that was part of the problem.

Great pattern and cut! Super versatile
Fit well, although I had to pin the front so that the V wouldn't be so deep at casual Friday at work. I like that I can wear this with white jeans or with navy skinnies and a blazer.

Runs a bit small, cute alternative to basic striped top
Ran small on me; usually in Milly I am a 4, but the cropped style and tightness across the shoulders and chest didn't work for me. A 6 probably would have been better.

Subtle but amazing
I wore this for a black tie optional wedding in Minneapolis over New Years. I got so many compliments! I wanted something that was a little different than just black or navy, and the green lace, midi length and cut out shoulders made it perfect. Fits true to size - I'm usually a 4 or 6 in dresses (broader shoulders but straight through torso and hips) and got both the 4 and 6. I wore the 4, the 6 was too loose and long.

Loved the dress, got so many compliments!
Normally I am a 4 in dresses, but I wore the 6 because the 4 seemed a little short for a wedding. I had some room in the top, so if you have larger than a 34B chest you will still fit pretty easily. The fabric has no stretch and is pretty thick, which was nice since I couldn't wear a bra.

Cute dress, in between sizes though
I love the idea of the dress, but was in between sizes (normally a 2 or 4, but the 2 was a little snug across the chest/shoulders and the 4 was too baggy). The material is also much thicker than I had expected - not good for an outdoor wedding when it is 90 degrees and humid.
