Runs large if you are pear or hourglass
I love the fit and length, but I originally got a 29 (my normal size), then switched to a 27 because it was huge in the waist/hip/crotch area. The 27 was fine at first but immediately became baggy after a few hours wear. Next time I will go for a 26. I guess the moral of the story here is maybe get the size that matches the actual inch measure of your waist.

They are tight, but isn't that what we want?
I love the fit. I wore them to work with long sweaters, and outside of work with normal tops. The rise is perfect and flattering for people who are bigger on the bottom with a small waist. I am 5'3" and the length was perfect with a mid heel. Very comfortable, though they do stretch out over the day and it appeared that a thread at the hem started to come out.

Beautiful quality fabric, comfortable and LONG!
I am 5'3" with a fairly short torso and longer legs, so I usually wear regular-length trousers but can sometimes take petites. These were verrrrry long. I had to pin them up more than one hemfold in order to wear them to work with 3.5" heels. Other than that, I thought the fit was great, a bit large on the waist but nice elsewhere. I typically wear an 8 in this brand. I have a smaller waist and larger bottom, and usually wear a 2-4 regular length in trousers for Banana Republic and Ann Taylor, a 4 pants in Rebecca Taylor suiting, if that helps.

Perfect for a waterfront cocktail hour!
This was so light, flowy, and comfortable. I rated it small as I normally wear a US 2 and found the 2 to be very tight around the rib cage, which is unusual for me. The 4 was perfect, but I did have to use some body tape to make sure it didn't move at the bust (I'm fairly small-chested, 32C).

This was SO cute and comfortable! I got compliments all night and felt gorgeous.
Pros: Fitted bodice, no need for a bra. Cons: I wish it had adjustable straps.

I did not end up wearing it.
As others have said, it runs large in the torso. I also felt that it was LONG in the torso, which sometimes happens to me.
