This is a great dress if you want to stand out from all the black gowns at the party! I wanted something that was elegant yet modern and this dress fit the bill. It runs large and long. I am 5' 9" and the regular length was plenty long enough for me. I would have tripped all night in the L. The reason for 4 stars vs 5 is that the material (jersey) and style of the dress makes it a bit difficult to get everything falling on the body in the right way! Once you do however, you will love it! I am self conscious of my tummy and hips and this dress managed to hide my issues. I did not have to wear a bra with it because there is a built in corset within the top part. In fact, you will need someone to help you zip up the back of the corset. i am single and had to ask a neighbor/friend to come over to handle the corset zipper and clasp! LOL..
