Fantastic dress - just the right weight and hug of curves
This was my first RTR rental and I was nervous because (a) it was going to arrive the day before the event and (b) I had no backup available! I read reviews and selected the smaller of my two dress sizes (8) - glad I did so; anything bigger would have sagged. It was perfect for a professional black-tie-optional event and I felt sexy and sophisticated and age-appropriate. It is lined and the weight of the fabric really skimmed/hugged the curves in a great and flattering way without being clingy. Some other reviewers mentioned the length, but I am 5’7 and wore moderate 2.5” heels and the dress did not drag at all. The only issue is if you are planning on sitting (for example, for a dinner), the slit does come pretty far up the thighs. Be prepared to put a napkin across your lap and keep it there! Dress moved great for dancing, too. All in all, a really fabulous dress.
