I am typically a size 4 so I ordered a 4 but there was no size 2 or size 6 as an alternate, so I opted for the size 0. I was certain that I wasn't going to fit a 0, but since it was free, what the heck. The dresses arrived and when I tried on the size 4 it fit but was pretty roomy. With Spanx on, the size 0 actually fit but it did hug my body. I added my own dressy rhinestone belt from Anthropologie, antique jade and diamond bracelet and ring, and leopard print stillettos. I also rented Gerard Yosca Emerald Nouveau Drops earrings from RTR to wear with the dress. I tried the trick suggested by another renter of wearing the smaller size under a larger size to act as a slip. It totally works but I was pretty warm with both dresses on. Since the wedding I was attending was going to be in a warmer climate, I opted not to wear it that way and just wore the smaller sized one. Definitely do the Spanx with this dress. The unlined silk shows everything. The side ruching does provide a little coverage which is nice.
