I rented a Kate Spade dress to wear to the Kentucky Derby, but it didn't fit. So this was actually a backup dress that I got in a 10 and 12. I took the advice of another RTR review of this dress that suggested getting two sizes up from my usual size (which is an 8.) The 10 was able to zip, but for a girl with curves, it was just too small to be comfortable. However, the 12 fit just fine and was perfect for the Derby. I'll also say that RTR was great about getting me this dress in exchange for the dress that didn't fit. Quick e-mail response even after hours and the dress arrived at 9:30 Saturday morning, just in time to put on and leave for my event! For this reason I'm very glad that I chose to have my original dress arrive 2 days ahead of the needed date instead of 1.
