I was so happy I ordered this dress. I had my second baby a few months ago and still have an extra 15 lbs on my frame at the moment. Since I am wearing clothing in 3 different sizes out of my closet right niw I was very confused as to what size to order. The RTR specialists helped me figure it out after I took measurements. The 10L fit like a glove. I am 5 ft 8.5 in and the long was barely long enough. I wore short heels and wouldn't have minded a bit of extra length at the bottom, but I don't think it was noticeably too short. The material is very high quality and feels beautiful. That being said, it does not have a lot of give. I was very comfortable walking and dancing, biut sitting for dinner was somewhat challenging. I just had excellent posture all night long. If you are going to an event where you will be sitting the majority of the evening, I would consider a different dress. I was worried about the size of the bow on the shoulder, but it was not obnoxious and just looked very high fashion. It did not bother me at all. I put in a close up so you can see the size of the bow by my head. The train in the back is beautiful and not too long. The zipper is very well hidden and somewhat awkward to zip up yourself, but not impossible. I got endless compliments all night and felt very beautiful, which is amazing because this extra baby weight can do a number on your body image. If you rent this dress, I highly recommend an updo on the opposite side of the bow. My hair was really pretty. But I got tons of comments on the beauty of the simple updo with the asymmetrical dress. I had to wear a bra because I'm breastfeeding and needed nursing pads, but I think you could get away without one if your breasts are a C cup or smaller.

This was my backup dress so I'm glad I had other options. I called and gave my measurements because I recently had a baby and had a hard time figuring out what size I am. It was recommended I get a 10L. I couldn't even get it closed at my rib cage, even with my husband's help. I would not recommend this dress if you are larger in the ribs, but this is a new issue for me post partum so I'm not sure if this might be an issue for me in multiple dresses. The fabric is beautiful and flows well and would hide any hip or stomach imperfections well. I was impressed with the quality of the dress and think I would have liked it quite a bit if it fit. Though I couldn't zip it all the way to tell, I think the bust would have been slightly large in me.

I was happy with these and chose to wear them with the Black Kennedy Gown by Carolina Herrera. Like other reviewers said, they are not a full teardrop in the back and are flat. However, I didn't mind that, liked the cheap rental price, and thought they looked beautiful with my dress. They are not heavy and are quite comfortable to wear.

These are just okay. I was only able to get one over my hand because the opening was rather small. It took coconut oil, my husband's help, and a willingness to accept pain to get them on. If you have issues with bangles in general, pass on these. They were pretty, but I agree they feel and look a tad cheap. That being said, the rental was cheap so it's not a huge loss.
