Unique, 80’s flair, snug!
I wore XS and it was very form fitting but still comfortable. The only downside for me was that the material wasn’t as stretchy as a I thought it might be. The dress is eye catching and I felt rather 80s in it - which happens to be my fav decade… I enjoyed wearing something that was quite different from my usual choice…

Form fitting, comfortable and makes a statement.
The first thing I noted was that the dress is quality and has a little weight. Both plusses. I tried the 4R and the 6R and went with the 4R. It fit perfectly, except for not much wiggle room for walking. This definitely didn't bother me, though. I had no issues with the shoulder design and did not have to adjust it at all as it stayed up perfectly. This dress is very classy in a subtly quiet way but makes a statement.

Felt like a million sequins :)
Wonderful dress. So much better than you could imagine. Super comfortable to wear, didn't have to hitch anything up, or shift anything around. Easy to walk in (seriously) and the length, even though I'm '2" and I got the 0R, it was fine. So, didn't need the 0P! Highly recommend this little beauty of a dress.

Glamorous movie star vibe!
This dress made me feel so empowered and glam. It fits perfectly and accentuates all your curves. As a small chested woman I wasn't sure how it would fit, but I didn't have to do anything to adjust - everything stayed in place. The length was just perfect as I picked the petite. The color - wow so vibrant and gorgeous. If you want to feel oodles of confidence and sexiness, rent it!! I love all the Nicole Miller dresses - they are amazingly comfortable and sooooo well made.

Movie Star Status ;)
I read the reviews and it did help a lot as this dress does run smaller due to the UK sizing. So take that into consideration. I am usually a size 2 in Nicole Miller if that helps at all and I wore the 6R. What a phenomenal dress it is. By far my fav. It made me feel beautiful, sexy and confident. It is unforgiving in fit and the leg slit is high, but be confident and you'll carry it off!! It was super comfortable, no issues at all. The drop shoulder didn't budge at all and I wear the silicone bra inserts so no show for straps or worrying about adjusting every five minutes. HIGHLY recommend!!!

Glam!
These earrings were perfect with the understated amazing black dress. They are large but NOT heavy and stayed put all night perfectly.

Felt perfectly elegant for the occasion!
This was the consummate little black dress. It fit so seamlessly and was SO comfortable. The material is high quality with just the right amount of stretch in the right places. I didn’t have to fidget around and fix, pull up or down or hitch anything. I don’t usually wear off the shoulder dresses but I LOVED this one. It paired so well with the jewelry I also rented as seen in my pic. Just simply stated and gorgeous dress. Also it as just the right length - not too short. Highly recommend it!

A quintessential LBD!
This dress was so comfortable! I don't usually go for off the shoulder but since this was a bit different I think it looked great. The drop shoulder stays secure and you don't have to fiddle around with it or adjust it at all. The material is snug BUT comfortable and keeps its shape wonderfully. At 5'2" and 56 yo I felt good with the length as I didn't want it to be too short!!! No cons! Probably could have donned my running shoes and ran in it - that's how comfortable and fun it was to wear.

This LBD was so easy to wear and I felt so elegant in it! Didn't have to adjust anything :)
Can't go wrong with Nicole Miller. I originally ordered another dress but it didn't fit properly so RtR rushed me two other choices and this one was perfect! The fit was so comfortable - just enough stretch to cling in all the right places yet not tight. Just stayed put. I have an athletic build and wouldn't normally go for an off the shoulder dress but this was perfect with the two straps over the shoulder too. It was very flattering. At 5' 2" it was just the right length also - not too short! I wore my strapless silicone bra - which I highly recommend for dresses that don't need all the extra straps sticking out!!! Felt gorgeous and glam all night long in this LBD!

I felt like a movie star ;) LOVED all the attention!
Another huge hit from Nicole Miller NYC! The first thing you notice is the beautiful lace and quality of this dress. I usually wear a 0P but the 2P and the 0R(I couldn't get the 0P) were similarly sized on top which was a surprise. I chose the 2P because the 0R was much longer and I didn't want to wear super-ginormous heels ;) (instead of just "ginormous" heels haha) As a very small chested woman, I just wore the stick on bra cups and it was perfect as the chest area of this dress is also "boned" so it fit very well. The sleeves sit well on my shoulders although I am sure you could wear them off shoulder too. The dress was so easy to wear, didn't have to adjust anything, and I got many compliments on it. I highly recommend this dress - esp if you are similarly sized to me! You will LOVE it!!

Felt like a fashionista.
Wow... what a stunning dress. First, the fit. I am 5'2" and 112 lbs athletic build. The 0P worked well for me but if you are muscular around your shoulders and upper arms the neckline is quite snug but it certainly didn't detract from how comfortable the dress was! The material is heavy but hangs beautifully and doesn't cling. The color is so eye catching. I wore a stick-on bra so no lines and it was perfect under this cut of dress. I received so many compliments. HIGHLY recommend!

Oscar worthy dress ;)
Yep, this one did make me feel quite famous really. I rated it at 4 stars only because I found the material a little heavier and not as stretchy as I anticipated but don't let that hold you back from renting it. The dress is snug and in true Nicole Miller fashion, so unique and eye-catching! I wore the 2R and with high platform shoes it was perfect at my height of 5'2" and 114 lbs (Athletic build). This dress does not need a lot of extra bling to dress it up - it is beautiful as it is - depends how you like to accessorize though. The front design is such that it is very low cut so I wore an invisible adhesive bra which was perfect. No lines anywhere! Highly recommend if you like something a bit different!

I felt like a very elegant million dollars!
This dress is gorgeous. Another Nicole Miller hit in my opinion. I ordered both the 0P and the 2R (since the 2P wasn't available) and ended up wearing the 2R. Even though I am just 5'2" (and 114 lbs-athletic build) I wore really big platforms with the dress and it worked out very well. I note that some women are wearing the straps a bit differently but for myself, this was the best and most comfortable. I wore an invisible adhesive bra underneath and that was perfect! (highly recommend these btw for an event lasting a few hours!) The dress hangs beautifully and does show off every curve and detail. Wear it like you OWN it! ;)
