Too tight through bodice, too big through shoulders -- awkward fit
Could have been stunning if RTR had offered the size up. Alas, no alternate sizing was available for even one of my selections, so I decided just to roll the dice on this one. Luckily it came on time so I could return it and buy something locally to wear to the wedding, but had to return the jewelry with the dress, so paid for that rental without the benefit of use! Don't make the same mistake I did!!!! This dress is really only fits a true pear shape body, but then the shoulders were wide, so, not sure who it will actuallyl fit.

Viktor & Rolf
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"

Gorgeous dress. Color is not the orangey coral in the picture -- I would say a true scarlet, instead. Runs very narrow through the back - you can sort of see this on the model in the back view. Sizing up would have been perfect but wasn't available when I rented. Despite being tight through the back, the cut and drape were otehrwise VERY forgiving; it's a very flattering dress. Sooooo many complements!

La Scala Draped Dress

Usual Size: 4

The dress is not the peony pink in the picture; it's actually a scarlet red. I wear size 2 to 0 in most major brands and a 4 in designer labels. I got the 4. The dress runs small in the bust (I'm a C-cup); it zipped but it squished the girls. Also, I got the regular length -- waaaay short! I am 5'6". I had to wear flats (yes flats!) for the dress to be long enough!!! I have some killer 4 inch heels that had to stay home and watch the gold flats got to the ball! But the dress is beautiful and cut is flattering. I would try the next size up (not avail for my date) and I would get the long.
