I rented this dress for my prom, and I got about a million compliments! No one else there had a dress even remotely similar to mine, and everyone was truely blown away. You could tell this dress had been worn many times. The zipper was pretty tough to get to work but I made it happen. Also, there was plastic parts on the top of the dress which gave it the tight look, but those parts ending up poking me all night! I then had to put bandaids where it poked me so it didn't hurt as much. But, beauty is pain am I right? I am 5'5 and wore flats, and the dress fit great for length! Overall, the dress was breath-taking and was everything I expected and more! If you are considering this dress I would definitely go for it!
