I ordered a 6 and 8 - the 6 fit my body perfectly, but the arms were too tight and I wasn't able to raise my arms at all. I went with the 8, which was a little less snug on my body, but fit my arms perfectly. The dress is super comfortable. I wore it to an outside wedding in Miami - the conditions were gloomy and very humid. The dress was pretty cool in the sense that I never really felt like I was melting. And the pockets! Who doesn't love pockets. They were a great touch to make this dress even more comfy. I had my cell phone in there the whole night and never missed a photo-op!

I wore this dress for an outside wedding that took place at night. It was cold out, so the long sleeves were perfect for the outside ceremony. Once inside for the reception, I never got hot. The sleeves are made of very breathable material. The dress is beautiful, and the fit was just perfect. It hugs at all the right places. I received many compliments throughout the night. I didn't have any fit issues with this dress...I would suggest ordering your actual size.

I rented this dress for my best friend's formal wedding. I usually wear a size 6, but some of the other users wrote about the sleeves being tight, so I was very happy that I had ordered the 8 as well. The size 8 was a much better fit, but the length was a lot longer than the 6. I had to safety pin the back hem so I wouldn't trip, and used fashion tape for the front hem. After that it was smooth sailing. The back was a lot lower than I was expecting. I bought a bra adjuster thinking that would do the trick, but my bra was still visible. Luckily my friends were able to just tuck the extra fabric into my bra strap and that solved my issue. This dress is beautiful! I got a ton of compliments, and felt very glamorous.
