I wore this for my company holiday party. It was flashy but classy. I danced all night and felt amazing. I'm 5'6" with a 31" waist and 40" hips. The 12 just barely fit and I felt best with Spanx on because it's so clingy. The ruching hugged me just right though. I wore the long with 3-4 inch heels and it was perfect. The regular length would have fit with flats. The sequins rubbed my arms and my hair got tangled in them but it was a minor inconvenience for such a beautiful dress.

I wore this to a fancy wedding.I didn't want to take it off! Ever! After looking at all the picture reviews, I knew this was the dress for me. Everybody in every size, shape, color, age looked incredible in this dress and I felt the same when I put it on. The color is so vivid- orangey red. The fabric is luxurious and the shape is wonderful. I'm at least a size 12 on the bottom but this dress is loose through the hips. I wore the 10 because the top fit me better. It was considerably shorter than the 12 and it was a bit tight through the band at the rib cage (but I have a big rib cage). I am 5'6" and wore 2.5-3 inch heels and you can see it hovered a bit above the floor. I used a small safety pin to close up the neckline a bit as well as fashion tape to keep it from gapping. With those measures I was able to wear a regular bra with this which is wonderful! I wore Spanx on the bottom but I probably didn't need to. My natural waist is about 30-31 inches and where that band hits is about 32 inches. One of the pictures is my sister and I both in RTR gowns! Basically, if you think you'll like this gown, GET IT. You will feel beautiful.
