The dress runs really small. As per other reviews, I ordered a size larger than I normally wear, and it just fit. Any larger, and the straps would have been too big, so the ten was my only option! That said, the dress is body-con; you can see the outline of your entire body. I am an apple shape, and get insecure about my stomach, but the dress is paneled, so that holds you in; I didn't bother with Spanx. I found the dress straps loose, and they are not adjustable, so I tucked them in and made the dress strapless(that is why I have a close-up picture). No one could tell, and I thought it enhanced the dress; the straps aren't sequin-y, so they look plain in comparison to the dress, and detract from it. The sequins look gorgeous, and I didn't find the dress itchy at all, even though other reviewers did. Finally, the dress is short; I am 5'3'', and it hit my mid-thigh. I loved the shortness, but others may not. Overall, it was another gorgeous dress that I didn't want to give back the next day!

The dress was absolutely gorgeous in person; the picture on the site doesn't do this gloriously sequined number justice. i got loads of complements all night long. i stand at 5'3'', and the dress was quite short, which was the look i was going for. I suppose it could be darlingly mini on a taller person, but I felt fine in it. It runs a bit big, and it is a drop waist, so be prepared for bunching in the back. However, it does hide the tummy, which is a plus, for sure! Overall, I recommend taking a risk on RTR and this awesome dress!
