I wore this dress to a charity wine auction last night, and it was a hit. I kept trying to find excuses to walk away from people so they could see the back of it. The back is far too low-cut to accommodate anything but one of those press-on bras, which makes it a little tricky to wear, but it's totally worth the effort. (BTW, I fluctuate between a size 6 and size 8, but the 12 is what fit me in this dress. Believe the size/fit notes!)
