Bright, fun dress
I got so many compliments wearing this dress. Beware that the pink is highlighter pink, which I loved but know some people might not. The fabric is on the thicker side, but has just the right amount of stretch. Overall, a great dress.

Cute and comfortable
I ended up wearing the other Lilly dress I rented, but this dress was a close second! It runs true to size, is a great length, is super comfortable and flattering. Would definitely rent it again!

Great LBD
This dress was super flattering from top to bottom. It was snug, but just the right length. This dress runs small, so order a size up! The size up fit like a glove :)

Straps were a huge problem
I was so excited for this dress since I normally love Herve dresses, but this one was not flattering. I ended up having to wear my back up. The straps on both sizes were unwearable. Even with a padded bra, the top was loose and the straps kept falling off. Might work better for larger chested ladies.

Nice dress for formal wedding
This dress is a beautiful color with an interesting style to make it unique. The dress runs large, so I ordered a size down per the other reviews. I normally am a 4, sometimes a 6, and I ordered the 2 and 4. I could've been fine in either, but the 2 fit my bust (34B plus a padded bra) better so I didn't have to keep fidgeting with the straps. The dress is silk so be prepared to do some steaming, because they came wrinkly! Also, I'm 5'7.5" and ordered long sizes and they were the perfect length for me to wear with 3-4 inch heels (I like dresses on the longer side). My only real complaint that made the dress 4 stars rather than 5 is that the dresses have seen some wear and tear, and the color varied slightly by dress, but overall great dress.

Really wanted to love this dress, but...
I ordered this as my main dress, but will have to go with the backup. This dress is a beautiful color and great fabric, but not much stretch and runs small, so I would order a size up! It's especially form fitting in the waist. There were only two problems that prevented me from wearing this dress: The bust is very low cut and very baggy. It will do if you're standing the entire night and can pull it down, but as soon as I sat down I exposed pretty much everything. Also, the regular size was too short to wear with heels (I'm 5' 7.5" tall), so if you're planning on wearing heels and are over like 5'5", I'd order a long! Otherwise, would've made a beautiful formal dress.

Didn't end up wearing it :(
I was a little disappointed that this dress didn't fit well on me, as usually Nicole Miller dresses fit me like a glove. The small and medium were both fitted in the stomach/hips/butt, but even the small was loose in the bust for me. It was too low cut to wear any kind of strapless bra. Maybe a backless bra would work.

Great for a wedding
This dress is form fitting, fun, and best of all comfortable. Got a lot of compliments. It's the second time I've worn this dress (in a different color) to a wedding!

I would buy this dress if I could!
Such a gorgeous dress. It's fitted without being too tight, and with the lace overlay it is the perfect length (not too short, but still sexy)! The back of the dress is gorgeous, and the color was great. Got so many compliments on it!
