I normally would wear a 4L, but all that was available was a 4R or 8L. The 4 was a little snug, but doable. However, at 5' 5.5" (plus heels) I would definitely recommend the long. Even though the 8 was a little roomy, the dress has such a great structure underneath that you wouldn't have noticed it was big (esp around the bust). The sweetheart neckline is very flattering. I accessorized with a vintage brooch at the hip gather. Bra not necessary. I recommend no necklace and big earrings to show off the neck.
