The dress came on Thursday for an event I had on Saturday night. I was worried about it not fitting so I got the 10 and the 12. The 10 was just a little too tight in the waist so I went with the 12 for my friend's wedding. The 12 was a great fit around the waist which I was concerned about since it's my biggest problem area. Unfortunately, since it was the bigger size, there was extra material around my chest (36DD) and back so it looked a little loose. I used the fashion tape that came with the dress (another awesome perk of RTR) and that helped a bit, but I think the 10 was a better fit for that area. Since the dress was a bit more roomy, I felt really comfortable in it- rather than feeling like I was being sucked in the whole night. I was able to dance the whole night and just feel good in what I was wearing. Occasionally, I felt like the material bunched around my stomach and chest at times, which was less flattering, but I think that was due to the extra material of the 12. Overall, I received a lot of compliments on the dress, and am happy I went with this one. It was also super easy to return and made my trip home much easier when I didn't need to tote the dress back with me. :)
