This dress was perfect as the matron of honor at my best friend's wedding! Her colors included "wine" and I found the color to be perfect! I was worried the black in the shoulder ribbons would be too dark but they were hardly noticeable. I would definitely say that the dress is true to size because I would consider myself a size 6. I of course waited till the last minute and had to settle for a 4. Thankfully there was a lining because when I zipped it up the seam started to bust. Rent the Runway insurance for the win! It held together though and looked beautiful! I'm 5'10" and the Long size worked perfectly with the heels I had to wear to please the bride. I then put on flats for the reception and the length was still spot on. During the reception I ended up spilling meat sauce all down the front! I went to the reception to try to clean it out as best as possible and thankfully the lighter outer layers of the dress dried pretty quickly. Again, Rent the Runway insurance for the win! I was so impressed!

What a fun dress! I got compliments all night long and besides the bride, was definitely the best-dressed there. Before receiving the dress I was a little worried because after reading reviews, I thought it might be too small. I usually wear 4-6 and the backup-size-2 was a last ditch, just-in-case kind of thing. When I received it they had only sent me the slip with the size 2 though so I'm glad I ordered it! It BARELY went down far enough to meet the gold band on the bottom of the dress. As long as I didn't bend at the waist I was fine and I was able to dance in it for 2 hours with no problems! It was an outdoor July wedding and I was so glad I chose a dress that was breathable.
