Preface: To start, I had originally reserved a different dress but at the last minute RTR called to tell me the dress was damaged and that I could reserve any other dress regardless of price. This is the third time I have had to deal with customer service and honestly, RTR has the best customer service of any place I've ever dealt with. They took care of me and made sure that every step along the way I felt comfortable and that I was pleased. Thank you Rachel and everyone that assisted me! Now for the dress: I am normally a size 2 and being slightly-pear shaped was a bit snug on my thighs. The 4 was much too big in the chest and I think with a good pair of spanks , I would have been more comfortable (flew in from out of state!). I would definitely not recommend this dress for women with large chests or that are truly pear shaped because the fit would not be very flattering. I love the sleeve detail - my picture doesn't do it justice but it's very whimsical and delicate. BUT- either wear strapless or go without because I was adjusting the sleeves all night long. Since I wore a strapless bra it wasn't too much of an issue but I had changed from regular to strapless between the ceremony and reception. Overall Impression: I received numerous compliments from women of all ages about how wonderful the dress looked and quite honestly, it made me feel pretty. I felt pretty in this dress and it played to my best features which is a success in my book. I would recommend this dress for someone who is looking for a unique but romantic dress - preferably with more standing than sitting. Thank RTR!
