I rented this for a charity gala that I wasn't all that excited to attend until I put on this dress! I am almost 5'9, 121 lbs, and had originally wanted the size 2 tall, but it wasn't available, so I took a chance with the size 0 and 4. I wore the zero tall and it fit perfectly! This dress was the rose gold, and I found it more flattering than the gold. I was complimented all night, the dress has lots of shimmer without feeling heavy, and it's very comfortable! The sequins did not scratch my arms and usually I'm sensitive to that. I could have worn this dress for hours longer! I chose "runs large" because I normally wear a 2-4, but this dress has a lot of give. However it accentuates every curve, ripple, and fold, so pair with Spanx! Cons: Because of the plunging cowl in back, you can't wear a bra with this dress. Unless you're naturally "perky", had a lift, or use tape, it's not as flattering. Another woman wore this same dress in gold without a bra and I don't suggest that. If you are taller than 5'7" and plan to wear heels, order the tall! This dress has a train that my heels caught on several times., a few times snagging. Had I not being paying attention, or in a hurry, I might have tripped.

I wore this for Valentine's Day dinner 2014 with my husband. VD also happens to be our anniversary, and I've lost 60 lbs in the last year, so wanted something really special. This dress was amazing, and absolutely delivered! Not only did my husband love it, but every where we went, people stared at the dress. I felt like a supermodel. I normally wear small/medium (I'm nearly 5'9", and 132 lbs), and I ordered the medium with the large back up dress. Thank God RTR made the Plan B available, because I ended up needing the large. This dress definitely runs small. However, with the thick bandage style, you don't necessarily need Spanx, which I appreciated!
