Subdued elegance!
This dress was very elegant. It was nothing flashy and it did not stand out, but it certainly has an air of subdued elegance. Perfect for a wedding, actually! It runs true to size, albeit a tiny bit on the smaller side. I think this dress is more of a "Mother of the Bride," dress, so I would recommend it for the mother of the bride or someone looking for a more conservative, but elegant, look.

Absolutely stunning, but runs 1-2 sizes small. :-(
This dress is absolutely stunning, perhaps even more so in person than on the website. That made it all the more painful when I realized that it was way too small. I went in to the store in SF and tried on a size 8, 10 and 12 - same designer, different dresses as this one wasn't available - and I was certain that the 10 was my size. Unfortunately, this dress has ZERO give, and it was just too small for me. My advice: if you are typically an 8, but can sometimes fit into a 6, go for the 10. If you are an 8, but can sometimes fit into a 10, go for the 12.
