This dress was perfect for helping run (and attend) a 20s themed charity gala. I needed something that would accommodate a regular bra and hopefully allow me to wear flats, since I knew I'd be running around all night behind the scenes and up on stage. This was the perfect combo...comfy and just the right length to wear flats underneath. It did run a little big (I usually wear a 4, but the 2 fit perfectly). I was worried about it looking frumpy and bringing too much attention to my recently post-baby belly, but it was sleek and elegant and skimmed over everything. I paired it with a deco-style cuff I already owned, black flat sandals and did my hair in a low updo with a jeweled clip.
