Beautiful Necklace
The necklace was exactly what I was hoping for. Great sea foam color, nice weight to it (not cheap feeling at all like some necklaces can be), and the perfect size.

My Favorite Dress EVER
Okay, maybe I felt more like a princess in my prom dress, but this dress is by far my favorite RTR dress so far! It is HOT. I ordered the 0 and 2, and the 2 was definitely too baggy in places (I'm 5'7, 115 lbs, 32B, and pear shaped). The color is a cross between purple and blue (indigo, for those of you who remember ROYGBIV). The fabric is awesome - I don't even know how to describe it other than "luxe". That was probably the best surprise about the dress, and one that pictures can't show. It has a thick enough liner that you don't need any shapewear, but you will need a backless bra and seamless thong (I used Nubra and Commando). The length was modest enough for a wedding, but the mesh shoulders and back added the perfect amount of sexy. I paired it with the kate spade of new york Green Hot Chip Statement Necklace. I really can't say enough about how much I loved this dress and how great I felt in it. I've checked for it going on sale to buy it, but so far no luck. If it ever does, I am buying it. Hell, maybe I'll rationalize a $1K dress purchase before then. That's how awesome this dress is.

Fun, Colorful Dress
I wore this dress to a wedding rehearsal dinner and received a lot of compliments. I docked one star only because the bottom rode up while I was walking around, but otherwise it was great. The color is a bright, soft, spring orange and the fit is awesome - fit like a glove and had a flattering racerback detail. I'm 5'7, 115 lbs, 32B, and pear shaped and the 0 wasn't too tight to eat or move, but it was definitely a tight dress (I didn't take any full length photos - sorry!). I would definitely recommend it.

Awesome Solution
Being a smaller chested girl (32B, 115 lbs), the thought of going braless is...less than desirable. I was hesitant to try a "stick-on" bra not just because I thought it might not stay, but also because I worried the shape wouldn't look great under a tight dress. I took a shot and I'm so glad I did! It stayed in place all night, the shape was fine (rounded vs. pointy - have I hit TMI territory yet?), and the only thing I wish I had done was get the size B. I got the size A worried about how true their sizing was. B would have been a much better fit cup-size-wise, but the A did the job at least. Also, be aware that in humid climates or under sweaty circumstances the bra will not stay as well - say, for the sake of example, if you were running miles through the Honolulu airport to catch your flight in a loose, flowy top. Definitely didn't stick so great, but once things "calmed down" the bra stuck back in place. And that was on the third time wearing it, so its stick is still going strong.

How Did I Live Without These?
These are fantastic. Pretty much invisible in skin-tight dresses, don't bunch or ride, and super comfortable. I'm 5'7, 115 lbs, and pear shaped and the S/M fits great. Now if only I could go back in time and buy these years earlier...

Accentuates All The Right Curves
This dress fit like a glove. The wave pattern accentuated my waist and took attention away from any trouble spots (though I would have preferred to have the cream on the front versus across the tush!). It was comfortable and had enough stretch to be great for dancing, but didn't stretch out at all. The top part of the dress is mesh, so you'll definitely need a strapless bra. And due to the tight, hug-your-curves style, I wore a seamless thong. It was a fun dress to wear - I wish I owned it!

Dress was too worn out to wear.
The fit of the dress was very nice, but the one I received was too worn to wear. The gold metallic thread was frayed pretty badly and it was very noticeable. Luckily it was my back-up dress, so I didn't have to go without!

The color of this dress is beautiful!
The color of this dress is beautiful - a bright, emerald green. There is a lot of fabric to deal with, so if you're looking for something that shows your figure this isn't the one for you, but it was really comfortable to wear. The neckline and back are very flattering. I wore the 2R with flat sandals and the dress was the perfect length. The one negative about this dress is that it's silk, so any moisture will leave a mark (comes out with dry cleaning). Just something to be aware of. I loved wearing it though and would recommend it.
