I got an XL assuming that it would fit similarly to other workwear jackets I've worn, but when I tried it on it was almost comically large. Def recommend sizing down.

I went with a size 12 in this dress (I typically wear a size 12/14), and it fit like a GLOVE. The hip detail is a little Elizabethan, but I felt like it added a nice oomph to the look.

The dress looked nice in the date night photos (which is really all that mattered!) but I felt like I was swimming in it even though I typically wear an XL.

I needed my wife to help me with tying up the back of the dress because the beads on the strings made it difficult to pull them through the corset loops. However, once it was on, the dress was gorgeous and I got loads of compliments on it!

This fit me in a way that can only be ascribed to magic. No gapping with the buttons on the chest, excellent length, and a fun but still office appropriate pattern!
