Beautiful but SO LONG
This dress was beautiful! I ordered a 6R with an 4R as backup. I'm a 4 or 6 in dresses, usually choosing 6 due to my larger bust, but ended up wearing the 4R which was still slightly loose. As soon as I tried it, I felt like a celebrity and fell in love with the dress, but was horrified when I tried to walk and instantly tripped over the 4 extra inches of fabric pooled under my feet. I'm not terribly short - 5'4" and planned to wear 3" heels, so I was expecting the regular length to possibly be too short. Jokes! The regular length was still at least two inches too long even after putting on my highest heel - a 4.5" wedge that I ended up wearing because of the height even though it didn't match the dress at all. I wore the dress to a wedding reception and risked falling over every other step and while dancing until I figured out how to kick the skirt out when walking and hold it while dancing. The dress was a hit and everyone loved it and told me I looked so regal, but it was an annoyance to wear due to the length. Beware unless you're super tall or are planning to wear sky-high heels. I couldn't figure out an elegant way to make a faux-hem on this skirt and almost considered returning before the event, but I'm still glad I wore it. If the skirt were shorter, this would have been a perfect dress.
