This is probably my first RTR experience where I wasn't thrilled with the dress. I had asked for recommendations from a stylist and described my body type, and really don't think that this was the best idea for me. I am quite thin, but have a larger stomach right now after giving birth to twins. I'm also very small chested. The good news was that you couldn't see my stomach at all in the dress. The bad news was that it was so tight around the waist. It was so difficult to zip - partly because it was so tight but also partly because the zipper wasn't in great shape. Now, the top on the other hand was very large. I had a 2 as a backup and it fit better in the waist, but it was huge in the top. So I was uncomfortable with a too small waist in the 0 but still with a too large top. Also, the white part was slightly dingy. There was another girl at the event in the same dress and there was a noticeable difference in the whites. The size 2 also had make up marks on the top of the dress (not noticeable when wearing the dress though). The dress was just a touch long - I'm 5'5" and wore 3 inch heels. Just slightly too long, it wasn't much of an issue. All in all, the dress is pretty and I don't think that it looked bad on me, but it just wasn't the right dress for my body type. And the zipper really was a pain.
