So this dress was sent to me as a backup when my backup size wasn't going to arrive. I told the stylist (Namra F) that I needed an option for a Catholic church, black tie wedding. Fortunately my initial order fit perfectly fine so as bonus I wore this dress to a Beverly Hills dinner date with my SO. I felt great all night and would more than likely rent this dress over my initial order given the option again. In 2.5" heels, this dress needed to be pulled up to walk in.

Compliments all night. The fabric is comfortable but very heavy for a May church wedding (I was warm.) At 5'0" in 2 1/2" heels I could walk, but absolutely had to lift the skirt if I wanted to climb any form of stairs at all and dancing could have been easier. Also, it has pockets which are great for small things, but the first time I sat down my cell phone fell out immediately. The neckline was a bit lower than I had anticipated as well; I would rent this again...but probably not for a family event.
