I rented this dress for my 25th Class Reunion and I felt like the Belle of the Ball. There is loads of give with this dress... very stretchy so you can be confident in ordering the size you typically wear. With all the ruching, you can pull it down or wear it slightly higher on the leg. I will say that the material IS very scratchy and it did irritate the skin under my arms. Dress arrived in time and was packaged nicely... ready to wear out of the box. Thank you to Rent the Runway.
