This is a very comfortable dress-soft lace, good stretch. I'm 5'5" and the height was perfect with 4" heel/1" platform. The 10 was a bit worse for wear-lace edges were somewhat uneven but the overall effect is still good. The tulle at the bottom of the 10 is what my mother would have called 'ashes of roses'-a very subtle grayed pink. Very sophisticated and beautiful; a bit vintage-very soft, drapey fine net tulle. The tulle on the 8 was entirely different-blush pink and much more body; more of a net tulle. Both were lovely; I just preferred the softer tulle on the 10. Received many compliments on the gown and the way the train fell behind was just lovely; very romantic. It looks great with the little ribbon belt; I secured the bow with a 1.5" rhinestone vintage circle pin in the back. Of the gowns I've rented, I'd be most inclined to rent this one again, just for the way wearing it made me feel beautiful.
