This dress was really pretty and memorable. The low back made a big statement. However, from the waist down it was oddly tight - the size 2 may have fit me, but i felt like it was painted onto my hips, while it fit comfortably from the waist up. It's a bit sheer so plan to wear nude underwear. I wore no bra/sticky bra with it because I didn't have any and it was lined enough and the pattern was there, so I didn't feel exposed. The biggest complaint was that the strings to hold it onto the hanger kept showing through my armpit holes. Not really much I could do about that, other than cut them off, but it wasn't my dress so I couldn't. Anyway, it ran pretty small but that's what I'd heard about the brand already. I ordered a 2 as my main size and 4 as my backup because I'd read the reviews, and I'm so glad I did because I would have felt very uncomfortable in the 2. EDIT on 5.28.2014: I was about 10 lbs heavier than my normal weight last May when I wore this, so the 2 and 4 were appropriate. If I rented it again today, I'd rent the 0 and 2 and the 2 would probably fit fine. (It ALMOST fit fine, I just didn't like how tight it was on my hips). I had no issues with the sleeves falling down, either. Also - I'm busty with big hips but NO butt.
