This dress runs true to size. I'm between 6 & 8. I went with the 6 and while it was a bit snug it did fit (especially with the help of Spanx) and makes me think the 8 might've been too big in the chest. The dress was comfortable, had give, and really was just a wonderful dress for the wedding I attended (at a 4-star hotel). My only complaint was that it's difficult to get into as a single person with no one around to zip you up. The zipper sticks and is a bit difficult to get up past the ruching in the back. Not a problem if you have someone around to help but if you don't it's tricky! I figured out a system (keeping my arms out of the sleeve holes and zipping it completely up first, then sliding the sleeves up each arm) but it took some sweat and several trials! It was a bit more low cut than I usually go for but not in poor taste and I did A LOT of dancing & jumping around in it with no "wardrobe malfunctions." This was my first time trying RTR. While I've known about them for some time, there was always something about paying for something I don't get to keep that went against my shopper's mentality. However, I've also never gotten to wear a designer dress and I really wanted to for this wedding. I've recently lost a bunch of weight and so being able to wear this dress was partly a celebration of how far I've come. I would definitely do RTR again the next time I want to shine. :)
