I didn't wear it because it was too tight in the chest and ribcage. It fit beautifully everywhere else. I couldn't breathe and had to take short breaths. So definitely size up. I wear an 8 I sized up to a 10. I would have had to size up to a 12 with a risk that it would be too big everywhere except the chest/ribcage area.

I received SO MANY compliments on this dress. I wore it to a formal gala. It fit very well, I could have sized down to an 8R the 10R was a smidge too big in the back but it was fine. I'm 5'4 and wore 3 inch heels. It didn't drag too much and gave the effect I wanted. It lightly swept the floor but people weren't stepping on it all night. I wore a regular strapless bra. I also wore shape wear but it really wasn't necessary. It's a super comfortable dress with lots of stretch, I easily danced in it for hours. It wasn't scratchy either. Highly recommend! As for the RTR experience it was great. The first three dresses I ordered didn't work and they overnighted three replacements. Out of those three, two had potential with this one being the best. The dresses arrived with plenty of time before the event so I wasn't totally stressed. I would use them again.
