I ordered this as my backup and to my surprise actually wore it to the wedding. Many people recommended ordering this dress in the long. My advice DO NOT. It is true to fit and if you don't want to trip over yourself all night the regular works perfectly for a girl my height. I wore 4" heels with it and it was exactly the right length. The fabric is lovely and hides any imperfections but you might want to break out your spanx just in case :) I have a very small waist and my only complaint was that though the overall fit is true to size for an hourglass girl its a little roomy through the ribcage and waist. This leads to an amazing frontal view but not an awesome profile. Though I was just happy with the dress everyone else at the event raved about how dramatic the red was and how elegant and sophisticated I looked. It definitely makes a statement and as a mother of two young ones, it was the appropriate one to make
