This is a beautiful dress. I rented it for prom and got tons of compliments. It's slightly off gray person, but it was a pretty flattering color for me (pale with redish brown hair). The fit was a little crazy. I thought I needed the medium (I'm about 5' 3" with a athletic build, with very defined shoulders and about 125 pounds). The small was really baggy in an unflattering way and I ended up wearing the extra small, but still had to pin part of the halter up. It's hard to tell from the picture, but there's a slit that goes pretty much the whole way up, but it's not super obvious and just gives the dress more movement. The sequins on the bottom get caught on seriously everything. It was the prefect length for me to wear without heels (knee problems). The other only downside was that the beading rubbed in on the sides of my armpits and now they are pretty sore. I wore it with a silver beaded bangle and a longer diamond necklace.
