Wore this to a fundraising gala for my daughter's school. I was tired of searching the malls for something special so I decided to try RTR and I'm so glad I did!! I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and feel of this dress. I didn't realize the sequins didn't lay flat if touched or rubbed. They flip to show the reverse sliver side allowing you to have different designs and adds more sparkle. This didn't bother me but could be something unwanted if you didn't know ahead of time and feel like you are constantly "fixing" the sequins. I'm really glad I got two dresses to try on to compare the fit. I have wider hips and a smaller bust. I got sizes 10 and 12. The size 12 fit perfectly in the hips but my top was completely too loose. The 10 (that I ended up wearing) fit perfectly on the top but was really tight on the bottom but it wasn't anything a pair of Spanx couldn't fix. ;) However, it was a bit uncomfortable sitting because the skirt was a bit too short. The black belt added a cute touch but the dress could easily be worn without it and still look great. I would recommend this dress if sheath style dress work for your body type. You'll get lots of compliments!
