This was my first RTR experience, and started out kind of scary. It was immediately clear that the SL was too short for me. I put it on the LL and walked out of my room for feedback from the girls... crickets. It was just all weird and drapey, the drape was falling so low you could see the dress underneath. With some work with pins we got it looking presentable by pulling the drape up higher at the shoulders, and taking in the sides. I got out a needle and thread to sew how we had pinned it, and realized that the stitching holding the drape in place was coming out, which contributed to the strange effect. I fixed the missing stitches and used a brooch to hold in more of the drapes. I also had to sew up the zipper which also had some stitching coming out. In the end it was great for the 20's themed event, and easy to wear. At 5'10", the LL was the perfect length for me to wear flats. I wore the suggested spanx.
