This dress is really beautiful but there were too many problems with the fit! I am very much a pear shape and thought this dress would fit well but it didn't. First, it fits very tight around the hips with no room to stretch so if this is a problem area for you, size up! Second, the other reviews were not kidding when they said it was much shorter than it says! I'm 5'4" and the regular length hit right above my ankle. Finally, the top was very big on me. There is no way I would have felt comfortable for the entire evening in this dress with the top that loose. The straps are very long and since it is low cut the fabric would not stay in place to cover what needed to be covered. If it had fit, this would have been perfect for the occasion but it just really didn't fit at all.

I originally ordered a different dress for the occasion (a formal work banquet) and that dress did not fit at all! But after calling, we decided to go with this one. I was not actually able to see a picture of it until after I decided but I trusted the stylist and she helped me a lot! I was nervous at first because it hugs the hips and that was one of the problems with the first dress but the material around the hips allowed for some stretching when I sat in it. I thought it wasn't going to be big enough but it was! The size 18 which is the one I thought would be too small was actually huge, so I ended up going with the 16 and it fit perfectly! So I suggest sizing down or at least getting the size down as the backup. Also, the length of the dress was exactly what they said so I just wore a 3 inch heel and it was perfect! I am definitely a pear shape and it fit really well! The only negative is since I'm a bit smaller on top, it did have some extra room but I don't think that was too big of a problem! The material was very nice and overall this dress was perfect!
