I wore this out in Vegas. The dress is so so pretty, with all the lace and a slight shimmer from the gold. If not for the options on RTR, I would rent this again -- and I still might. I think the dress really suits my body type, which was why I could size down. If you have hips, you should go with your regular size (or maybe higher?) But I have pretty slim hips, and the dress really hugs that area. The waist is an elastic band, and very forgiving. The top is a little roomy, perfect for my broad shoulders. But a bigger chest would cut down on the bagginess too. I wore with black tights because this dress was short short on me! but at my height, i can't really knock off any stars for that. I loved wearing this dress!

Wore this dress to a Mad Men party. It is a gorgeous color and the style recalls the 1960s.I paired with a gold broach, cat eye glases and a beehive. As for fit, I thought the dress ran small. I got a 6 and a 4, and wish I had gotten a 6 and 8. The length was long, but not too long, a nice change from having to spend the night always pulling down my dress. I probably could have benefitted from some spanxs (and I rarely say that!). The dress is fully lined with a material that has no give, so that really contributed to the tightness. A lot of reviewers who loved this dress had an hour glass shape. My shape is nothing like that -- more apple/straight and narrow, and this dress still flattered me... All in all, a great dress!

This dress wasn't a home run, but it worked nicely for a dress rehersal. I included some shots of the details on the dress. The dress was a decent length on me, given my height. The size 4 fit OK, but it was a bit snug. I have a large rib cage, so I run into this problem a lot. In my mind, I thought this dress would be cotton, but it's really a very substantial, quality fabric that would also work for evening.

I wore this to a late October beach wedding, and I just loved it! The dress has built in shorts, that snap in the crotch, so you will not have a Marilyn Monroe moment. The snaps on my dress did pop open a few times throughout the night, so that's a downside to the dress. (Maybe I should have gone up a size? safe pinned it for more support?) Also, you can change where the tie on the top in, whether on the side or at the back. In terms of fit, the dress could have been longer (see pics), but it was probably long enough. I could have worn the 4 or the 6, but opted with the 4 because the 6 had more fabric in the top/bust. There was really little different in the waist between the two sizes. This is really a gorgeous dress!

This is a beautiful dress. It does have some shimmer to it, which isn't apparent in the model photo. I thought the dress ran large. I wore a 6, and 8 was my back up. For reference, I'm 5'11", 150 lbs, 36A, 28" waist, 36" hips. A 4 would have fit me much better. The wrap style is forgiving, but when it came down to it, I would have loved to see the dress in a 4. It was impossible to get the back to lie flat because there was just too much fabric. This may be different for ladies with more curves. This dress would look phenom on red heads, I think. Also, I wore a standard bra. Some type of seamless underwear is needed.
