Go for your normal size
The fit recommended was an XS but it was way too small. Go for your normal size.

Tight around the rib cage
Buttons pulled around the rib cage but fit everywhere else. Bummer because it was too obvious of a fit issue to be able to wear otherwise.

Pretty colors, interesting shapes
These are pretty bold and much thicker than I was expecting. This is not a delicate strand but rather bulky and shiny. Not a bad thing - but just as an FYI.

Different and interesting white work-appropriate top
I like this top but something about the fit kept me from giving it 5 stars. It has interesting architectural details that make it a bit different than other white blouses. The cinching on the back of the sleeves make it easy to push up and stay in place, but the paneling on the front makes it a little bat-wingy. I tucked it in to give a little shape and was happy that a nude seamless bra was undetectable.

Fun, easy to wear, comfy.
I went two sizes up to account for the shorter length people warned about in other reviews, which meant that the neck opening was a bit larger and baggier. It's cute and fun to wear, but not the most flattering draping.

Cozy, casual, chic
Super comfy sweater with a really beautiful weight and drape. Order your usual size - it's sized to be large in a flattering way.

Felt like a rockstar
Beautiful, form-fitting, super flattering dress. A good beginner dress for those testing out the waters of body con without going full Herve. The ruching is in all the right places and can be adjusted to hide whatever it is you're looking to hide on your midsection, I wore black spanx to smooth out the lines anyways. Now on to the back: revealing but subtly so and perfectly shows off your assets without being "in your face" tight across the bottom. The only thing I would warn about is that the top does cut in quite a bit on the sides. I was able to wear a nubra and kept the dress from slipping too far in with a little strip of fashion tape. May not have been necessary but if you're planning to dance or move about, it's a nice bit of insurance. I usually wear a 2 in just about everything but went with the 0 for this because it just clung better all-around. Could have probably gone with an L (5' 3" wearing 4" heels) but I liked my shoes and didn't mind them peeking out with the R length. Preferred that to lifting up my dress while walking but definitely a personal preference. This dress was classy enough for a Black Tie (opt) wedding with the addition of some sparkly bling and a wine red lip. Give it a whirl!
