It was well tailored to fit the sizing the was suggested. The bodice was tight enough for the top to stay on and well in place. I'm small up top so I usually have to get strapless dresses taken in. The bodice is high enough that you don't have to worry about that little annoying armpit pooch (if you have one). But this was true to size. No need for an iron since the fabric is heavy and hangs out nicely. Not as "flowy" as the picture makes it look. But the stiffness actually adds to the elegance of the form. And if you're hippy like I am, you'll like the extra big of coverage that doesn't show how much you ate at dinner.
