I ordered an 8P and 6R. I usually wear a size 8, and based on everyone's reviews I was afraid the dress would be too long in regular. I got the 6 as a size down because I read the bust was too roomy for a 10. I am 5'4", 136 lbs, 34DD-29"-37" hip. The 8p was sliding down on me...way too much room in the bust!! It was also too short. Even in flats it didn't come anywhere near the floor. I would say unless you are a true petite (under 5'2") order the regular. If you are over 5'6", get the Long. The size 6 fit so much better at the waist; I wouldn't say perfect because the bust is...weird. It doesn't seem to lay against the body. NOW...with that being said this dress is a SHOWSTOPPER!!! I got so many compliments, It's beautiful and comfortable and shimmers and flows and you WILL feel like a movie star on the red carpet in this dress. I would wear this dress anywhere, anytime. Make sure you get a backup size, too. I actually received my shipment a day early and the return was super easy. I had it delivered and picked up from my hotel.
