- Worn To Wedding
I wore this to an outdoor wedding in Pasadena, CA and the color was brilliant in the sun. I got so many compliments - it was a black tie optional wedding, and most guests did not 'opt' but I still felt like I fit in because this gown is not over-the-top. It is subtle with a very flattering cut and exudes elegance. My only complaint is that at 5'7" PLUS my 4" heels on, the dress was still entirely too long. I always order long versions of gowns, and even chatted with a RTR stylist before ordering because there were no reviews posted yet - and they told me what I usually hear which is go with the Long. People were stepping on my gown all night and I had to be extra conscious about walking so I didn't trip - so my advice, unless you're extremely tall, go with the regular length. Other than that, the size 8 fit was perfect.
