This dress is so elegant and the large ruffle over the shoulder gives just the right amount of drama. I like it better in black so when I rent it in the future, I will probably rent in black, but the red is a great color! I decided to wear my backup dress, but this dress is absolutely gorgeous. At 5'1", I should have rented the petite instead of the regular length. I think I still would have been fine with heels in the petite.

I didn't love the fit: I felt like the dress may have been to young for the look I was going for. Also, I thought that the zero was REALLY small. The two was better but the fact that the boning was sticking out and stabbing me made it unwearable for a whole night. I didn't end up wearing it.

The dress: I was a little hesitant to wear a dress covered in gold sequins from top to bottom but when else can you wear a dress like this?! The gown ran a little bit big but not enough that I would need another size. It is DEFINITELY too long for someone who is 5'1" unless you have stilts (I wore 4 inch heels and still had two inches of extra fabric) , but I temporarily made it shorter for the night so that I wasn't tripping over the hem. I felt fabulous and people kept commenting on how fabulous the dress looked. I was even photographed for a UK fashion website! My RTR experience: I rented because I attended the event RTR held with LivingSocial in DC. The girl I worked with couldn't have been more helpful, friendly, and flexible when handling my rental, especially when the dress I wanted initially wasn't available. The service made the experience even better--thanks for making such a special night so easy!
