The Dress

Wearing this two-piece dress makes you feel fierce. It's perfect for the right person: It felt very much like me, and I received so many compliments on it - folks thought it was designed for me. I bought it directly from Rime Arodaky and it was shipped from Paris in spring 2018. I wore it at a fall 2018 wedding and was cleaned immediately afterwards. There are no stains or other problems - it's in perfect condition.

Sizing: I have a 32" bust and could have probably worn a size 36 top, but the 38 was comfortable. The size 38 top would work for someone with a true 34" (or slightly larger) bust. You can't wear a bra because the back is sheer - I wore sticky "petals" instead. My hips (39") are 2" wider than the skirt was designed for but my waist is 28". I pulled the skirt over my head (because it couldn't clear my hips) and it fit really well. I could sit/dance etc and never felt self conscious or had to adjust the material. I wouldn't recommend this size for someone with a waist that's larger than 28".
