Choose your normal dress size, then your normal cup size. If you're between dress sizes (eg, 10-12) we recommend sizing up. The shirring at the back helps nip in the waist and ensure a comfortable fit.
Whoops! We accidentally created the most elevated dress you’ll wear this summer. The Ella Midi Dress is a timeless fit and flare style, with a feminine wrap top appearance in the bodice, delicate puff sleeves, and elevated shirring at the back to ensure a comfortable fit all day long. Ella was designed to pair perfectly with your favourite bra, with extra space built into the bust area and a sneaky side zip to ensure easy on and off.
To top it off, Ella has a clever hook and eye closure at the neckline so you can choose your coverage level. Oh, and it has pockets!
FEATURES
Wrap top appearance with cup sizing to ensure it fits your bust
Elevated shirring design at the back ensures it will adapt to your shape at the bust and waist
Hidden side zip
Hook & eye at the neckline to customise your level of coverage
Lightly elasticated waistband, shoulders and cuffs
POCKETS!
Darts under the bust through the waist means the silhouette appears to be more fitted than it is

The Ella Midi dress is one of my all time favourite ML pieces! I wore it to my son's kindy graduation and received so many lovely compliments. The Sepia print is so sweet and the fit is perfection on my hourglass body. Thanks ML for making such beautiful clothing!
Store owner replied:
Omg Karen we are so obsessed with this review!!! You look so incredible in your Ella Midi and we are so glad you are loving your ML pieces. Thank you so much for your continued support - we love having you apart of our Busty Community 🤍 xoxo
Dear Rachael and the entire ML team,
I truly don’t know what I would do without you! My ML collection has been growing over the past few years, and the Ella dress is by far my most complimented piece. I even have it in the white mini version and have been wearing it most days over the last few weeks!
The fabric is absolutely beautiful, and I have never felt so comfortable, secure, and confident in a dress. As someone who is a 6HH and 5’3”, it is incredibly difficult to find clothing that works for a smaller frame and a larger bust, but somehow every single piece you create solves all of my problems.
I’m secretly manifesting the day you decide to make size 6 bra bands so I can finally purchase one of your beautiful bras alongside your busty basics and dresses!
Gone are the days of oversized, baggy t-shirts worn just to hide my body because nothing ever fit properly and hello to finally feeling confident in my size and shape!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you so so much!!! 🥹 🫶 ❤️
Store owner replied:
ASHLEIGH!!! This review has put the biggest smile on our faces! 🥺🥺 Thank you so much for your absolutely beautiful words and ongoing support, it means the world to us! It makes us so so happy that our pieces have been a game changer for you, this is why we do what we do!
You look absolutely STUNNING in your Ella Dress, love that it’s become a staple in your wardrobe! 💞
We hope to expand our range in the future, it would be a dream for you and us alike! ❤️ xxx
Store owner replied:
ANDREA!!! You are looking absolutely incredible in your Ella Midi Dress!! Thank you so much for sharing your review and how the dress is fitting on you 💞💞💞 xoxo
The Ella Midi Dress is PERFECTION!
Sleek in all the right places, sweetly busty if you want it and deeply comfortable! This will be a summer and transeasonal staple.
I try to limit my purchases to things I consider timeless to fashion trends and this dress fits the bill perfectly.
Store owner replied:
Alexandra you look STUNNING! Thank you for your beautiful review and your support it means the absolute world to us! So so glad you’re loving your Ella Midi Dress 🤍💚 xxxx
A very comfortable, flattering dress. I have received many comments!
Store owner replied:
Oooo great idea Jessica! Be sure to be a subscriber for any future colourway feedback requests. Our newest Busty Basics colourway that will be coming soon was selected with help from our busty subscribers! So glad you are loving your Ella Midi and thank you so much for your review 🩷 xoxo
This dress fits the girls really well. I love the addition of the hook & eye as thats something I usually have to add myself or stitch the fabric together on all other brands! I love the way it fits around my waist & then flows to the ground. I was unsure if I would like the length, but after wearing it I loved it.
Store owner replied:
Yayyyy Rebecca we’re so glad you love the Ella Midi Dress! It’s all those little details that make her so special! Thank you for your review! 💕💕
Fits beautifully! So flattering I am a size 8G and only about 5 ft 3 tall, it's floor length on me which I love.
Store owner replied:
Isn’t it amazing the difference clever design work can make! Thank you for your support and review! ✨🤍
Absolutely lovely dress, being a small framed girl with big boobs I have never been able to wear dresses like this, now I can and I feel absolutely beautiful. Thank you 🙏
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your review Georgia! It makes us to happy to hear the Ella Midi Dress has been a game changer for you! Xxx
Bought the basics tops, they were so good, quality is banging, so I went from there. Bought this dress and the shorter version too, praying it would work. LOVE it. Its giving the greatest Jane Austin vibes (also randomly bought a sunbella hand fan so the look is going to be WILD!) Went back for the other dress because this is kind of giving me an easy summer pod-wardrobe moment. Would love some dresses that dont have the cut out backs please and thank you.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your beautiful review Brianna! We love the Ella Midi Dress, isn’t she stunning! We appreciate your ongoing support! ☺️💕
Such a beautiful dress that fits perfectly and is so flattering! This will be my go to dress over the summer.
Store owner replied:
Yayyyy we loveee this! Ella Midi is the perfect summer staple! We’re so you’re loving her! Thanks for your sweet review Elise! 💕💕
You won’t regret it! Absolutely stunning, creates the most gorgeous cleavage and the fabric is beautiful and heavy and thick - no lumps and bumps. Don’t be tempted to size down- even unzipped, getting into it is a little tight but the fit is amazing once it’s on!
Store owner replied:
Hey Laura! We’re SO happy to hear you’re loving your new Ella Midi Dress! Thank you for your beautiful and informative feedback 💖 xx
Just received it in the mail today and it is a beautiful dress. Probably depends what bra you wear but I unclipped it at the front and it wasn’t too revealing at all. It just sat perfect in all the right places. Even hid any bloating. I hope it comes out in some more pretty floral colours. Great job team!
Store owner replied:
Hey Maddy! We are so glad you are loving wearing your Ella Midi. We are so proud of the new collection and love to hear you are loving the fit of the dress. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your review! 💘
