Based on others' reviews I went +1 and +2 dress sizes (10,12) from my norm (8) The shoulders and bust (I'm a 32F) were very tight on the 10 but everything else was very loose, the 12 fit well on my arms/shoulders but was super baggy and the lace did not hang right so I just went with the 10 It was very comfortable outside of not being able to move my arms above my waist/tightness across my shoulders--but I managed to still dance and I was able to eat whatever I wanted since it was a little pouchy around the waist -- I wish the fit had been a little better on the bottom but hey I got to wear a regular bra so I was really happy! Hit right to the knee on me which was perfect but I could see it being a bit matronly for younger women/ its not very fun or sexy but a classic, timeless look Overall it was a very elegant choice for a formal/conservative wedding, I definitely would rent again
