I ordered the 2L and 4L (I'm 5'7") and it was a toss up, but I went with the 2, mainly because it was brand new and looked nicer than the 4, which had been poorly pressed. I really liked this dress: it was elegant and comfortable. I received a lot of compliments on it. It was obviously a more formal gown, , but the color and flowy fit kept it from being too stuffy. I think you could order regular length and wear flats with no one knowing, the long hit the ground on me with heels on. The color was gorgeous in person. The fit on the top was a little weird, I loved the open back, but the uneven front looked good from some angles, but awkward from others. All in all I really liked this dress and would recommend it.

I usually wear a 2 or 4 in dresses, but since designer clothes tend to run a little smaller, I had planned to order a 4 and get 6 as a backup. Right before my delivery date I checked my order and realized I'd ordered a 2 as backup. Certain this wouldn't work, I called RTR. and they shipped a 6 overnight for a nominal cost. The stylist was awesome! Anyway, both the 4 and 6 fit well, but I went with the 6 for the sake of comfort and ease of movement. I agree with the other reviewers that the neckline is strange, but it didn't bother me at all and I think once you walk away from the mirror, it's not that big of a deal, kind of cool even. A statement necklace is a must though. I loved the cut and felt that it flattered me well, even though it was a little pouchy around the stomach. I wore this to an awards dinner for my husband in Southern California where I didn't know anyone in advance so I wanted to look respectable, but stylish. This was the perfect dress! I got tons of complements and I even heard people commenting on it as I walked by (in a good way). My only complaint- and I noticed this in pictures on the website- is that the hem has a crease in it. In fact the whole dress needed some pressing, but the fabric resisted ironing (it's a stiff polyester). But this was not a deal killer. Just a note for the OCD. Loved this dress! Wish I could keep it! Thanks Rent the Runway!
