The greatest compliment BY FAR that I received was when Prabal Gurung himself liked my photo on Instagram. I literally had a conniption when I saw it. This dress is absolutely divine. I felt guilty spending the money to rent this dress initially, still comforted a little by the fact that I didn't pay full retail for this. However, once the dress came in, I absolutely fell even more in love with it once I put it on. The fabric is wonderfully sturdy so you don't have to worry about anything showing through and it maintains a beautiful shape on your body. I recently lost a few lbs and was about 118 lbs when I wore this to a wedding. I typically wear a 4, but ended up wearing the 2 with the weight loss. Upon looking at the 4, it almost looked too big around the abdomen, and I'm usually a 4 depending on the style or design. The 2 was perfect without being skin tight and had some room to spare in the abdomen. I think your best bet is to get two sizes as the sheath design can be tricky on the body, especially if you're curvy. A good bra will make a huge difference with the shape of the dress on your body. Despite the lovely bateau neck, I had no issues with bra straps. I am not a busty girl, but if you are more endowed, it might be snug in the chest. Absolutely no complaints with this dress whatsoever. I was heartbroken returning this. Of all the dresses I have rented from RTR, this is by far the most beautiful one and beloved. I felt incredibly sexy without having to bare skin! This dress is phenomenal and worth the rental! I absolutely wish I could own this dress.
