This is a beautiful dress that just wasn't cut right for me to wear it to chaperone a prom!
The shape of the dress and the fabric is stunning-- very flattering curves and gorgeous sheen and texture. Unfortunately I am short waisted and large busted, and even with a choice of both the 18W and the 20W I couldn't get the shoulders to sit in the right place and to not have cleavage exposed down to my belly button. If I owned the dress, a simple tailoring to raise it up at the shoulders would have made this a perfect fit in the 18 and a lovely choice, but as is, I ended up wearing my second choice dress from RTR for this event.

I rented this to chaperone a high school prom with a "Great Gatsby" theme.
The dress is prettier in person-- the beadwork is gold on black and sparkles more than you can see in the website. The beads do come loose easily, and the dress is a black slip with an overlay of the beaded chiffon. It was super comfortable and conservative enough to wear as a teacher around teenagers for the evening. The gold is very flattering in person. I ordered both an 18W and a 20W and the 18 was still a bit on the large side, although the dress is not clingy so it flowed nicely and was flattering.
