This worked quite well for the opening night of the symphony. I was certainly not standing out. It was wasn't hard to wear with a pair of Honeylove shorts and a padded bra. It was 2-3 inches too long for me, even with 3 inch heels, but I walked carefully and handled it. I didn't need to pin it closed or anything. I didn't feel thrilled to wear it, as it was pretty sober and staid, but Ralph Lauren can deliver looks you can rely on. If I owned this, I'd get it tailored for length and the shoulder fit. It would work well for funerals, also.

It is so much prettier than the photo! It fits snugly, and the ruching is very flattering on any belly. I was so pleased that it wasn't scratchy, and didn't snag anything else I was wearing. The only cons were specific to my own body, i.e. the top portion was slightly oversized on my shoulders, and that threw the balance off a bit. It is a great standing-up cocktail dress, not a sitting down one.
