I hated to return this dress! It's the first time in my life I have had a formal gown that was long enough for me. The color was absolutely yummy. The dress was very good quality and well made. It was SUPER comfortable and I appreciated the fabric tape included with the order because I could attach it to my bra straps and close up the front just a wee bit. I did end up wearing a convertible bra because the back strap wanted to keep peeking out above the back of the dress, but this was not a problem. How refreshing to wear a formal gown that I didn't have to worry about having a wardrobe malfunction or be miserable because it was uncomfortable. I didn't even have to wear spanx or a slip. I wish I would have ordered the 8 instead of the 12 as my back-up size, however. The 10 was really on the verge of being too big but I followed the stylist advice on the "chat" and the description (which says the dress runs small) and ordered the larger size for the back-up. The package arrived on time and everything went like clockwork. I told so many people about this company and how pleased I was with the entire process. Some thought I was very brave to head into my formal event without having tried on the dress ahead of time but I could tell by the photos of "real" people wearing it that it would work for me and I was extremely happy - in fact, it could not have been more perfect for my event. It was exactly what I was looking for, and I felt like a queen (in fact, you will note I am wearing a tiara...) If RTR ever wants to get rid of this dress, I would buy it!!
