I sized up at the last minute after my last dress was too small, and it was a good thing I did! To be honest, it was a bit more difficult getting into the 10 than the 8, and the waist lining looked like it had been split and restiched, which may account for this. Ultimately the 10 was a better fit, but still a bit snug. To give a better idea, I currently have about a 35" waist, and wear a 36C-D. At my current measurements, I would probably go with a 12 to be a bit more comfortable in the waist. I wore this for a formal winter wedding and received tons of compliments!! The length was perfect with 4" heels (I'm 5'5") the dress was easy to dance in, the color was gorgeous, and I absolutely loved how beautifully the dress flowed! This was my first full-length gown rental, and I have to say I was quite pleased. I was able to wear a regular bra, but pinned it to a racer-back style (safety pin or paper clip works) in order to line up the straps with the cut of the dress. All in all a great choice that I would definitely consider for future formal events!
