The dress was everything everyone else has said it is-- forgiving, comfortable, and elegant. I was afraid it might be a little matronly, but it looked great, and I felt great in it. A quick word of warning, if you're going to have pictures taken you will absolutely want to wear a slip as the dress is a bit sheer. The reason I'm not giving this dress the 5 stars it really deserves is that the particular dress I received from RTR was INCREDIBLY beat up. The ribbing was sticking out so the wires poked me all night, so while the dress itself was comfortable, it was actually somewhat painful to wear (though obviously it has nothing to do with the design of the dress). The plastic along the bust that's meant to help hold the dress up a bit was mostly worn away so that I had to sneak to the bathroom a few times to pull it up. Overall the dress was wonderful, but RTR really just needs to replace the particular garment I received.
