This dress made me feel glamorous without feeling fussy. Seamless bra and seamless spanx are a must--every line shows underneath. The red is so gorgeous and the details are so feminine. It's also super comfortable! Your feet do show (I'm 5'7" and I wore the 42 R) so make sure you're happy with your shoes. I really liked that it wasn't dragging around on the floor but if you are going for full-length I'd do a Long. Can't say enough good things about this gown!

Beautiful dress, gorgeous color and perfect for a formal event I had to go to 5 weeks after having a baby. (With major help from my spanx.) showed off by post-baby cleavage and hid my post-baby tummy as well as any dress I could imagine. Made this sleep deprived mom of 3 feel, dare I even say, glamorous for an evening. I'd rent this dress again for sure when I've slimmed down but it was great for my currently fuller figure as well. I ended up closing the optional fabric closure for a little less boob but love having options with a dress! This is a great RTR dress because exact fit isn't as big an issue as it could be with a tighter, strapless gown (which was my first choice and looked horrible on me. Thanks pregnancy back fat). I'm normally a 2/4 and right now am about a 6/8 and the medium fit great. One thing to note that I wasn't aware of--I'm 5'7" and the dress was easily 2" off the floor which was great for walking up and down stairs but your shoes will definitely show. And I'd order a long if you're a taller girl.
