This is a truly gorgeous dress.I wore it to a charity gala. Unfortunately, I needed a size 6, and they didn't have any available, so I had to make do with a 4 and an 8. The 4 just barely fit, but I could tell it would get uncomfortable after a while. The 8 had to be pinned so that my chest wasn't hanging out (it was VERY low-cut, more so than the 4), but once I fixed it, it looked great! The picture is not the most flattering angle, but rest assured the dress was very flattering, even with my pale skin and red hair. I got compliments from total strangers (men and women) all night. I was so glad I rented it, because we ended up winning a South African safari trip in the raffle and had our picture taken for the event publicity. After four hours of wearing the dress, though, be warned - the straps will cut into your neck and shoulders from the weight of the dress. I would still recommend it for short-term wear when you want to impress.
