I wore this dress to a 40th birthday gala. It was GORgeous. I agree with the other reviewers that it runs small. For those who are top heavy or have a little extra girth around the upper torso, this dress may not be for you. But if you have gorgeous gams, go for it, as this dress will really highlight your legs. The fabric is definitely top quality and the dress was in excellent condition when it arrived. There was a problem with my order in that one of the sizes I requested was not available. I must say that the folks at RTR, specifically Melissa, bent over backward to find a replacement. I appreciated the outstanding customer service. I would definitely rent again.
