gorgeous and comfortable
This was a last minute order for a black tie wedding. I wore size 4R because 2R was not available - it was a little too big for me but not such that I couldn't wear it. The fabric is very stretchy and comfortable. Despite being small-busted I never had to wonder if the sleeves or bodice would slide down. The lower portion has nice lace inlays that are hard to see in photo, and the bottom swishes nicely. You will feel free to dance in this gown. I needed 3" heels to keep the hem off the ground.

Comfortable and classy
I wore this to a black tie event in early October in DC. Chose petite bc I don't like to wear heels >1". The 2P was shorter than ideal, but I went with it because 6P was my backup (4P not avail) and that was huge on me. You can see in the photo that I couldn't even fill out the bust of the 2P, so 4 would probably have been too big anyway...I'm guessing 2 regular would have been the best choice. Still, I felt beautiful, the dress arrived with plenty of time to spare, and return was super easy.

Off to the ball...
This dress was very comfortable, and the pockets were a lovely bonus. I got numerous compliments, including one from someone I've never met. I'm actually a AAA bust size (not an option in the RtR profile), which makes finding tops and dresses difficult, but the cut of this bodice worked well for me. I wore it with flats - might be a little short if I'd wanted to wear heels.
