The dress runs true to size overall however the bottom is a little snug, so just be wary if you're wider in the hips/thighs. It was a little difficult for me to sit in this dress because of the tighter fit on the bottom, so that would probably be my only complaint. I was able to use fashion tape (included with my purchase!) to make sure the dress didn't stick out on the top, so that worked out really well. Overall, I would definitely recommend this dress for any event!
