I wore this dress to a black-tie optional office holiday party. This dress was really comfortable to wear. The material had a decent amount of stretch to it, which also means that it hides nothing. I didn't use spanx (if I owned a pair, I probably would have), but I can definitely see how they would come in handy here. The dress has nice detailing on the shoulder, which adds some color and a little weight to the dress. I ordered both the 0R and 0L. The downside to this dress was the length. When I tried the 0R on with my 3" heels, it was several inches off the ground. The 0L was much better, but was slightly too long. I ended up wearing the 0L. I found myself having to pick up the dress sometimes when walking, and I had to be careful when dancing. It was definitely better to have the dress run slightly long than very short. I received many compliments from both partners and associates (the 20-somethings). Many commented on the beading at the shoulder. The material was heavy enough to be comfortable in the cold December weather. Overall, I enjoyed wearing the dress and would recommend it to anyone looking to wear it to a more formal occasion.
