In this order, I ordered the Chateau Party Dress, which is stunning in the pictures. In person, it did not disappoint!
Unfortunately though, the cut was a bit weird. Because of my rather large bosom, I ordered the dress in Large, and it fit everywhere nicely, with just the right amount of room. But around the sides of the top, which is a high halter neck, it gaped. If it was too big, it should be too big everywhere, especially given that it gaped at the part of my body which is the... largest.
As a result, I had to return it, and I didn't feel confident that the medium would fit better. It is a pity that BM doesn't have free or cheap returns, because after paying $10 to return the dress, I was left feeling pretty disappointed.
I love black milk clothing and to be honest, I will try their stuff a couple more times before I give up buying them. But so far, their sizing has been wildly different on each item and I haven't kept anything I've bought, I've had to pay to return it all. The only person this makes happy is the postie, who is getting all my money for returns.
I was totally in love with their leggings, especially the galaxy legging, but their average price on leggings are $70, the galaxy legging I bought is $75, plus $10 shipping will be $85, I was a bit decisive because of the price, but that time I don't see much galaxy printed legging that's why I'm really decisive on this. So end up I bought it, and after a couple of weeks, I started seeing some other shops start selling galaxy legging and they are so much cheaper. After I received the parcel, I didn't regret that I bought the legging because of the quality is very good, smooth like silk and comfy to wear too. So overall, their products are cool and good quality but just a bit pricey.
Having seen peacock leggings on a random member of the public, I searched for the way to find the same. Blackmilk was easily found, navigated and more items there that could fit my GF were there than I thought. She is sized difficultly, being large chested and narrow waisted. Most things don't fit her because of her chest. The fabric was at the limit when she was wearing it, but fitted very fine elsewhere. Not too loose at the waist or hip. The delivery was very good, and the satisfaction on the gift was very high. The items are pricy, but I feel that the quality of manufacture was well worth it. Recommended
I ordered the Burned Diamond crop top, and to be honest I was a little underwhelmed. The neckline was a bit lumpy, caused by the texture of the burned velvet. The top was also not as see through in daylight as it looked under the studio lights so it looked more like a velvet jumper than the slinky crop I was after.
It wasn't terrible, but just not amazing, for the price. The great thing was, Black Milk returns policies are so great that I simply sent the top back post haste.
If you've read my reviews lately, you'll notice a trend - somehow, I've been returning more than I've been keeping. Maybe it's just a run of bad luck, maybe there's a bit of a trend with online stores selling stuff they know wouldn't pass muster IRL?
My experience with Black Milk didn't have that feel though: with BM, if you don't like it, you can just return the thing to the mailing address and get your money back! Or, you can get 110% store credit! Now that is what I call customer service.
I bought a pair of World Maps Leggings as my first official Black Milk purchase when they were having the Black Friday sale. Apparently in all their excitement they had oversold this particular pair of leggings. I had to wait a week longer than most other people but their customer service is AMAZING! When I got my package I found a pair of a hosiery as well as my original purchase. So lovely!
As soon as I got these I fell in love, maps on my legs? Freaking awesome! The material is so soft and when you first pull them out of the bag they look short but the material is EXTRA stretchy yet not daggy like those cotton leggings. Great find, and now they have become a museum item! Love that BM do this, makes you feel really special to have certain items. Will definitely continue to shop here :)
I am an avid black milk shopper and buy from them all the time. They recently had a half price sale and I bought eight items! They offer leggings, swimsuits, catsuits, dresses, shorts and shirts. Until the end of December they are offering FREE express shipping and any other time express post is only $10. Express post only counts when they have shipped the item, which can sometimes take a few extra days after a big release or sale - this can be forgiven though considering the quality of the products and the amount of people who put in orders (the recent sale had 30,000 orders in one day). When they take extra time to ship they are always apologetic. My particular order took 5 days to arrive.
The designer, James Lillis posts podcasts ALL the time and he is hilarious. The black milk team are pure awesome and always strive to make your online shopping experience fabulous!
I have been buying blackmilk for the last two years. The shipping is generally fast. It does take slightly longer now there are more people following the brand but the leggings are amazing, good quality and made in Australia. They also have lovely girls working in customer service that always get back to you quickly.
