I rented this dress for a Mari Gras ball in New Orleans and was so glad that I did. It was gorgeous and just the sort of fun, slightly out there dress that I needed for a formal but festive event. I received tons of compliments on it, and loved it so much that it crossed my mind to buy it from RTR. Sizing: I ordered both the 6L and 8L and ended up wearing the 6L. The top fit perfectly! It was snug but comfortable. The only problem is that it was really long. I'm tall (5'9") but even with 4.5" heels on, the 6L still dragged on the floor so I had to hem it at the last minute. Not sure how much shorter the 6R would have been, but I think I probably would have preferred it even if it meant I had to wear low heels. I'm including two pictures. Ignore the fact that I look distraught in one of them. It was because my feet hurt like crazy when I got home at 5 AM, not because I didn't like the dress.
