I was instantly drawn to this dress when I saw it because of the color and the fabric (I was going to a wedding where the bride's family was Hindu and the groom's was American, so they did a Western ceremony but an Indian-inspired rehearsal dinner, and every one was encouraged to wear traditional dress or bright colors). It definitely delivered. I guess I was feeling pessimistic when I rented it though because I got it in a size 6 which was too big. Fortunately the tape that RTR included in the box fixed the problem so I didn't have to worry about the dress sliding around on my chest or off of my shoulders all night. I was a little nervous about the waist line since I have a bit of a tummy, but it actually wasn't a problem at all - I don't have a very large chest but the top still draped really nicely, minimizing the tummy issue and making the dress feel really flowy, and me feel really shapely, without feeling over exposed. I wish I could've kept this dress as it's a great option for more everyday dressy events - flattering but comfortable, dressy but not flashy, conservative but still feels sexy. I would totally buy it and wear it quite often!
