This was my back up dress (excuse the messy hair & no makeup, I took the picture the day after the formal event so I am hungover!). Originally this was my first choice. The color is breathtaking & the gown just flows. It is gorgeous. I felt like a princess wearing it. The zipper seems to get stuck right at the belt section going up or down. The belt that is sewn into the dress comes right at the bottom of your ribs so it is a little binding. I tried this dress on with 3 inch black sandals & the dress just touched the floor. I am a 36C & this dress made my ta-ta's look like 40 FF (is there such a thing?). So maybe if I were super slim, tall, younger, etc...I would have worn this. I do love the dress but my body wasn't made to wear it.

The dress was gorgeous! I weigh 139 lbs (totally going on a diet Monday, ugh!) & I'm 5"3. The fabric flowed. Beautiful deep navy. My husband absolutely loved it on me. You have to put it over your head to get into it. No zipper. I normally wear high heels but with this dress I wore 2 1/2 inch tan/nude sandals & same color clutch. The dress touched the floor but didn't drag & I picked it up a little when I walked. I wore gold jewelry with it. The dress was incredibly comfortable & I had lots of confidence wearing it. It was a very formal dinner/dancing affair & I fit right in. I wore Spanx shorts with tummy control, hello, I'm 43 years old & Spanx (God I wish I had invented those things!!) strapless bra in nude. Thank you RTR!! I will ALWAYS get my dresses from you. Dress showed up on time & shipping back was easy. I have told 7 of my girlfriends & no one could believe it.
