Stunning gown that gave me curves!!
This absolutely beautiful gown is a deep navy blue color. It's dark enough that the details of the gown's craftmanship don't photograph well, but they're quite visible in person. The material had a lovely sheen, but was not "shiny." (It reminded me of a silk shantung.) The gown is well built with internal boning and extra support, which for me meant that no bra was needed. Even without a bra, it stayed up all night with no problem. Not once did I find myself tugging on the my strapless dress. I'm built like a rectangle - very straight up and down - but this gown gave the illusion of curves. It was a little loose through the hips and snug through the bust. However, the next size up (12L) was huge through the hips, so I went with the 10L. As to length, I would have liked to have worn heels, but the dress was not long enough (I didn't want my shoes to be visible), so I stuck with flats. (In hindsight, it was awesome to wear flats as I was standing, walking, or dancing all night.) I got tons of compliments from both friends and strangers, and my husband thought that I looked gorgeous. You can't ask for better than that! Thanks RTR! (Side note: I also rented the necklace and earrings from RTR and that worked out great as well!)

I wore the earrings with the matching necklace to a black tie gala. They looked great, and were surprisingly comfortable! I love how the larger crystals let some of your natural skin tone shine through. They brought a nice bit of sparkle to my face. Lovely!

Great necklace! I wore it with a strapless, sweetheart neckline gown and the matching earrings for a black tie gala. Added a pop of sparkle to the look. The necklace was very comfortable to wear - not too heavy. I really like how the larger crystals let a hint of your skin tone shine through. Gorgeous!
