I fell in love with this dress when I first saw it, but it didn't quite meet my high expectations when I tried it on. I usually wear a 4 but decided to get a backup 2 instead of sizing up, and the 2 was still a little big for me in the waist so I was very happy I went a size smaller. (Really I need a 4 to accommodate my bottom, but a 2 is more appropriate for me from the waist up.) I think some of the other reviewers who wore this dress with a belt had the right idea - it helps to achieve the look that I think this dress is trying for. But I still received a lot of compliments and the dress was very comfortable, too- I would wear it again if I could, and just add a belt to help with the waist issue.
