I was looking for a dress to wear to an evening wedding and since there were no reviews to go on, I really went out on a limb in choosing this one. It was particularly difficult because I am all over the board when it comes to sizing. I wear 4 in pants, 2-4 in dresses, and my shirts range from XS-M. I tried to get a feel of how Badgley Mischka runs by looking at other dresses and the reviews said they ran large so I decided to go with a size 2 with a backup in size 0. The size 2 buckled in the neckline but if I stood up super straight it wasn't so bad and after a while I noticed the dress was rubbing under my arms. The size 0 didn't have the buckling but it was so tight under my arms and I thought for sure if I bent down to pick something up the whole thing was going to split. Overall there wasn't a huge difference between the sizes so I'm thinking a size 4 may have worked but the buckling probably would have been worse. The green color is beautiful and sparkles like glitter but rest assured, no glitter! I kept with the metallic look and paired the dress with a gold clutch and gold shoes. Regular bra works fine. Underwear was a little tricky though. I honestly was having so much fun at the wedding that I didn't get any good pictures of the dress. I would recommend this dress but get your regular size and then get a back up in the next size up. I'll definitely be renting from RTR again.
