I ordered this for a wedding but it arrived with a rust colored stain right on the front which of course I did not realize until AFTER the ceremony/daylight conditions Thankfully I could run back to my room and change into my backup but I was sad to not be able to wear this dress as it had a fun fit and flare shape and had a nice tulle underskirt to really flare it out The color was also very pretty satin teal brocade, perfect for a fall night wedding I normally wear an 8 but based on others' reviews I got the 12 It had a very odd fit for a 12, as in it fit like a glove throughout --even across my back was nice and tight but the front of the dress just flopped open/the strapless bodice part had no structure so the top just unrolled/inverted and showed the rubber lining that is supposed to keep the dress up I managed to safety pin the death out of this dress to my strapless and make it work but I would say you need to have a very large full cup to fill this out yet a small waist/ribcage ie I'm a 32F and it was snug around my ribcage but completely loose across the fullness of my chest Either way I did not end up wearing this for the rest of the evening because of the unsightly stain :/
