First, this dress is beautiful and extremely well made! If you have large breasts, you will want to order up a size due to the way the top and arms fit. Don't worry, this will not make the rest of the dress too large as it is very stretchy. However, the top has a built in bra that does not stretch as much. I am 5'8 1/2", 150# and 38D, I ordered the 10L and ended up having to call for emergency delivery of 12XL as the 10 top was too tight in breasts and arms and Long was just a bit too short with 4 1/2" heels. With that said...if you have bumps and lumps you want to hide a bit, THIS is the dress for you! The material is stretchy, so it gives you "hold", also, the ruching runs all the way thru the hips and hides a multitude of sins and lines. I did wear spanx, although, neither a bra nor spanx are necessary with this. I had compliments all night from women and men. I felt great in this dress, it was very comfortable! It is very classy and sexy without being inappropriate. As always, RTR was amazing with their customer service! Even with their phone lines down, the rep was on chat with me immediately and found replacement for me and shipped next day air to my hotel! The most spectacular customer service I have ever experienced!
