I wore this dress to a Mardi Gras ball and got many compliments, it was so comfortable and has good structure at the top. It does run a bit small so if you are more pear shape, I'd go a size up. This was my first time renting from RTR and I will definitely do it again, I've told all my friends about it too! The first dress I got had a problem with the zipper and the people at RTR overnighted me another...customer service is GREAT!
