This was a really beautiful dress! I love the color and the cut but the shape wasn't all that flattering on me personally. RtR called me a few days before my rental and told me the size I had ordered (2R) was no longer available, which was rubbish. The 4 worked out all right but it was definitely a bit big and the waistline isn't very defined so it made me look a bit less slim than I might have otherwise. Also, one side of the top was a little warped. But careful with the interior ribbing when you zip up or you may find it poking you, which could be uncomfortable. The dress was definitely long on me, but I'm very short so that wasn't surprising. I'm a bit over 5'1" and I don't like wearing tall heels. I wore 2 1/2" heels and I definitely could have used a few more inches of height to keep from stepping on the dress. Despite these problems, the dress really is very beautiful. The color is much prettier in person, an indigo rather than the gray you see in the picture.It looked nice on me overall and I would recommend it for a formal occasion, though it might work out a bit better for a less petite person.
