The fabric in person is definitely beautiful and a show stopper! Received tons of compliments! I liked how the gold wasn't rhinestones or super flashy, but actually part of the fabric. I do agree with other reviews that the slit is very high, not a problem when you're standing or walking, but when you sit down or if you twirl too much on the dance floor, it gapes open. I safety pinned it a little further down from the top so it wouldn't open too far, but still left plenty of room for a dramatic look. The top is low cut, but it didn't bother me and I don't think showed too much off. I had to use a safety pin just to stop it from gaping underneath the clasp it comes with. It is very light and easy to wear. The shoulders can get a little itchy (because it is not lined like the rest of the dress), but it didn't bother me. I got the 1L and it was perfect! I'm 5'8" and wore 4 inch heels and it glided across the floor very well. Definitely rent if you don't mind standing out!

The dress was very comfortable and easy to dance in, which was one of my main criteria's for choosing a dress! I wore it on a summer evening where it was probably 80 degrees and it wasn't too hot. I generally wear a size 4, but got a size 6 as my backup - but the 4 fit great! The zipper does tend to get stuck a bit I the middle because the fabric is thick around the zipper, but with a little patience it worked fine! I also got the long size which was perfect since I am 5'8" and wore 3 inch heels. Since the fabric is so pretty, I didn't;t need to wear a necklace or anything as it would clash with the flowers. Received tons of compliments!
