I wore this dress to a Carnaval party, since it had so many colors and very vibrant. This dress did not let me down. I am 5'1", 140 pounds, 32B, and was nervous it wouldn't fit either length or width-wise. Both the 6 and 8 fit, but the 8 gave me a little extra room (and my normal size) to feel comfortable all night and not feel clingy, while still fitting well up top. The material is so silky, and was really elegant. I got rave reviews at the party. If you're looking for a colorful dress, but not too over the top, this is the one. Hope this helps!
