I loved this dress but it hasn't been my favorite from RTR. However, I know my body well enough that I knew what my insecurities with the dress would be and I went with it anyway. My arms are not my favorite and I obviously this dress draws a lot of attention to your arms since it is the only skin showing. It's true what everyone else says that the sequins did rub my skin a bit raw but it didn't really bother me. Also, even though I wore the long it was only floor length without heels on so you could see my heels which is fine. It was surprisingly easy to walk in despite the train. I wore this dress for a work event for which I was running around a bit and besides having to hold up the train while on the escalator it was very comfortable and easy to wear. Because I am larger chested the black band and the tightest part of the dress hit right at my top ribs which became extremely uncomfortably the second I had a bite to eat and overall was not the most comfortable dress to wear while sitting down. Also, this is definitely a cold weather dress! It is a heavy dress with all the sequins and a thick fabric so not a lot of breathing area and I was very warm while dancing. All of those helpful tips aside I loved this dress and felt like I was an honored guest at the gala and not just working it!
