Adorable dress - sizing is a little "off"

  • Height 5'4"
  • Weight 135 lbs
  • Bust 34B
  • Body Type Athletic
  • Age 45
  • Size Worn 4
  • Usual Size 6
  • Overall Fit True to Size
  • Worn To Wedding

I rented both the 4 and 6 for an October wedding. In dresses I can be anywhere from a 4 to an 8 depending on the dress and designer but based on the prior reviews of this dress, I opted for a 4 and 6. The 6 was a little boxy - the lining hung lower than the lace overlay which I took as a sign that it was too big. The 4 seemed to fit better - was definitely more fitted, less boxy and gave me some shape. It looked adorable with a funky necklace. I have to admit - it was a little on the short side (and I'm only 5'4") and I was mildly self-conscious sitting in church for the ceremony. Overall, a great dress and depending on how you are built, you may have to be a little careful.
