I generally am a size 2 (34) but sometimes a 4 depending on the dress. I have a larger rib cage so the size 4 equivalent (36) in this dress was more comfortable. The bad part about my particular size 36 was the lining at the hem hung down on the left side in the front and back. I inspected the seam and it looks like it was made this way, no tearing. But definitely not part of the dress. There were also a couple small tears in the lace at the shoulders. The 34 was in great condition, I thought about squeezing into it but comfort won out. RTR send enough double-sided tape that I could tack up the hem in the front but not the back. Hopefully no one noticed! I wore a black bra with the dress and it blended in well. If you wear your hair up you may not be able to do that because of the opening in the back, but with my hair down it was covered. If you get an intact version of this dress, it's very cute (hard to take a picture of all the detail). It is short, perfect if you are petite like me. The dress did not arrive until close to 9pm the day I ordered it, so definitely get it the day before you want to wear it! Returning was super easy as always.
