I ordered a 6 and 8 and both fit. I wore the 8 because of some damage to the lining of the 6 that made the front of the gown pucker. The dress has an inner corset, and I did not need a bra. The only fit issue with the 8 was that the strap was too long (it seemed much longer than the 6) so I needed to tuck it in the back which was not a big deal. The length was to the floor with 3" heels with a little train in back. It flowed beautifully and was easy to wear and walk in. One thing not evident from the photos: There is a slit up the middle front that comes to about mid-thigh. Even the dress that was not damaged had some weirdness with how it fell from that slit. When I sat with my legs crossed, I did need to be careful how the dress was situated. Overall, the multi-tone color with shimmer really stood out, the silk flowed beautifully, and I was very pleased with the fit and look.
