this was my first RTR and the process was extremely clear and i love seeing the dresses on real people! i usually wear an 8, so i got an 8 and a 6. the 8 fit perfectly, and my taller co-worker tried on the 6--you can see how this dress looks great on pretty much anybody. the fabric has a tiny (and welcome) bit of stretch, and the fabric is high quality. it's very forgiving and flattering (the white insets on the sides visually cinches the waist). unfortunately it's FREEZING in boston so i wore this dress with tights, and the waistband of my tights were a bit visible (or at least I was self-conscious about it), so some people might look into smoothing garments, especially since there's a definite waist line built into the dress design. but the overall fit is perfect and feminine. i got a ton of compliments at the party (half hipsters, half media professionals). i would also suggest a strapless bra since the dress straps are set a little narrower than my normal bra's straps.
