Normally I wear a size 6, and honestly, I could have squeezed into it, but I wanted to be comfortable, so I wore the 8. I was wearing about 2.5" heels, and so the dress was a little off the ground at first. However, as the night went on the dress stretched out significantly so the length wasn't a problem. It actually became an issue of keeping the dress from getting in my way as I walked. Also, as it stretched out, the boning in the dress began to collapse and was poking me in the ribs. I guess I would say that if you only need to wear this dress for 3-4 hours, it will be great. However, I had mine on for about 8. That ended up being a slight problem. Also, if I could do it over again, I would have just put the 6 on to avoid the dress sliding down.
