Once it was on I forgot it was there
It is a solid cuff, a little difficult to get on because its so sturdy but once on I hardly noticed it (which is a good thing in my opinion). The jewels seemed a little cheap and reflected a lot of lavender/purple that I didn't really care for. But for the rental cost and the overall look I thought it was a good piece.

Couldn't breathe but I looked good
I thought the color was great and I received lots of complements on it but it ran small. I typically order a 6 in everything and then go a size down for my back up which is the one I typically end up wearing. This one I went up a size for my back up based on reviews and thank goodness I did because otherwise I would have been wearing something out of my closet. Had I ordered a 10 I would have zero complaints. I loved the the look it just has no stretch so once I finally got it zipped the ribbon piece around the waist (hit me at the bottom of my rib cage) was VERY tight and so I just sat super straight and tried not to eat too much before hand. But like I said had I ordered a size up I would have zero complaints! I loved that you didn't need to worry about a necklace and was able to wear a basic strapless bra.

Not your typical black tie dress!
LOVED, LOVED, LOVED everything about this dress! The back is super unique and sexy. The high-low effect allowed for me to show off my legs but still have a "long" dress. The shortest part fell just at the knee and the longest part would have touched the ground without any shoes. I wore 5" heels with it. I wore a Nu-bra with it which I had never done before. The dress was nice a fitted at the top so the bra smoothed things out while the dress kept things in place. I danced all night without any worries and I'm fairly busty. I highly, highly recommend this dress if you are looking for something a little edgy and different without being loud. I think you could easily dress this down for a semi formal affair with different jewelry and shoes.

So many compliments!
Loved the three dimensional aspect of this necklace! I received lots of compliments. I loved it so much I actually looked into purchasing one to keep. Such a great statement piece especially with a high neck dress like the Narciso Rodriguez Block Party Dress but would look hot with a top and jeans too. It is a bit weighty but in no way obnoxious. I'm really sensitive to jewelry and it didn't bother me a bit. Highly recommend!

Tribal Necklace
Jules Smith
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 6"

Bust: 34D
Ultra-flattering and sexy without being flashy or revealing
I ordered the 44 (6) and the 42 (4) as my backup. I have broad shoulders and so the dress would fit snugly through the chest and shoulders no matter what so I went with the smaller size to get a closer fit through the waist and hips. It has stretch in it so the smaller size laid better too. The lining in it also helps smooth things out. I've had two kids and I hate spanx and thankfully they weren't needed. Its a little constricting for dancing but it was a wedding not a club so no big deal. Only minor negative is that its a bit warm for a summer wedding. I was fine in air conditioning but anytime spent outside was uncomfortable. I wore it with the Jules Smith Tribal Necklace. This was my first RTR experience and I couldn't have been happier. Can't wait to RTR again!
