One out of 5 that worked!
At 36J US/36GG UK bra (44/36/45), I knew finding something to fit my chest would be hard. This worked pretty well. It was my backup to my backup, so many thanks to RTR's customer service for this one! There's some give in the waist, so my extra Covid belly fit, though it clung a bit more than I liked. The straps are really long, but I tucked them in and just left the loops out. I also used double-sided tape for a little gaping in armholes. The silver fabric was a little scratchy eventually - wasn't uncomfortable for what I was doing, but if there were dancing, it might've been irritating.

Badgley Mischka

Height: 5' 10"

Didn't wear
I ordered this in an 18L. Based on reviews and a size chart, I thought it might work. However, at 36J US/36GG UK bra & about 44" in the chest, there was no way. It did zip up, but completely flattened my chest trying to make it fit. Definitely not enough room in this style! It was very flowy and loose in the hips and waist, and I thought it would've looked beautiful on someone with a smaller chest.

Didn't wear
I ordered this in XXLL for my primary, along with another Dress the Population dress for a backup. I looked at a size chart and was at the top of the XXL size range, probably 1/2" over in the bust. I'm a 36J US/36GG UK bra size. I was able to zip this up, although I felt like a sausage, just barely fitting, and it didn't lay well. My chest did fit, but only just. RTR was great and sent another option that I was able to wear. Because it didn't lay well, I don't think I could've worn a heel (I ordered the long).

Evie Pine Gown
Dress The Population

Size chart is a little off
I chose this dress as a backup to another Dress the Population dress (Evie). I got it in XXLL and XLL. It sounded like it might work for a full bust (I'm a 36J US/36GG UK bra size) and the size chart I found showed my measurements to be right at the top of the XXL range, maybe 1/2" over in the bust - I'm about 44". However, I couldn't even zip past the waist. It was far too tight in the top. It was lovely and I wish I'd been able to wear it, but just didn't work for me. Length probably would've worked with a 1-2" heel (I'm 5' 9 3/4") & ordered in a long.
