First thing, getting this dress was an odyssey. UPS had an order delay and if it had not been for Jessica at RTR it would have never gotten to me. She's a star. She deserves a raise :) But when the dress came - it was gorgeous - the zipper was a nightmare. It was slightly ripped from the hem of the dress and wouldn't zip up. Since it had to be delivered to my dad's office - it was close to my event - I had to do the unthinkable and ask my dad for help zipping it. After tears and a hysterically bellowed "I'M JUST NOT GOING TO GO!" I regained my composure and was able to zip most of it and fashion tape the rest. Luckily I had a sash to cover the open bit. Tons of unnecessary drama getting and wearing it, but, I have to say, worth it. The faint hint of green and gold in the black lace at the top was perfect for my event. The skirt was comfortable and airy - perfect for Irish dancing. I would usually wear a 2R but I went with a 2L because a previous reviewer said the skirt just touched the floor and she was an inch shorter than me. I'm 5'4 and wore 3" heels and the 2L was just a tad long, but the 2R would have been too short for sure. Worth the rent if they take this dress and re-do all the zippers. If there was one reason I wouldn't rent this dress again it would be that. Customer service was TOP NOTCH, though. Seriously, RTR, Jessica for President.
