A big "thanks!" goes to Anon at 11:02 AM (in this post) who shared with us her review of this gown:

I wanted to give a quick review of the fit of the Milla gown. I am 5'-4" and in JC dreses normally wear a 6R or 8R, and sometimes can wear an 8P or 10P. I ordered an 8R. The top was bigger through the bust than a typical JC dress.(I am 36B.)

The v-neck is deep but the top still provides decent coverage. I also would need to have the shoulders tailored because one or the other kept sliding off. Sizing down to a 6 probably could resolve the fit issues on top, but, for now, the skirt will be too snug through the hips in that size.

JC describes the skirt as being slightly a-line. Slightly is the key word. I thought the dress fit more snuggly through the hips than other "slightly a-line" styles I have purchased in the same size. Especially given the fit of the top.

That said, because the skirt only has a slight a-line, the length was still quite flattering on a shortie like me and I could have had the hem taken up without changing the look of the skirt.

The dress is a collection piece but it does not come with any fancy packaging, which did not bother me one bit. I dislike how much packaging needs to pitched/recylced everytime I receive an order. I prefer things to be packaged simply--just enough to protect the garment from damage.

"Thanks!" again to Anon at 11:02 AM (in this post) for sharing with us her great review!

I won't lie, I think this dress is g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s! However, it's one of those dresses that you can only wear once- because you definitely will get noticed wearing it.

What are your thoughts on the Mila Gown? Are you considering or already have purchased this dress? Have you seen this dress in person? If so, please share with us your reviews too! :)
