Classy but fun
Glad I listened to the reviews - it definitely runs small. I typically wear a 4/6 and the 8 I ended up wearing was tight. I have a short torso and luckily the waist line hit in the right spot or it never would have zipped. Highlights: flattering cut, pockets, secure neck (no tie but snaps), cute detail on the flower is some are 3D. I wore this for "garden party" wedding attire. I am 5'4", 34B, 29" waist

Very flattering
Pockets are a major bonus. Loads of compliments. Issues: I wear a 4/6 typically and this was definitely more of a 4 (size worn for event was a 6), also 3 stays broke through the fabric and we're stabbing me. It was painful even with the layer of fabric I worn between my skin and the dress. I am a 34B and it was a perfect fit up top without a bra. I have a 29" waist and with the undergarment for protection from the stays it was extremely tight. I'm 5'4" and I felt the length was perfect.

Beautiful dress
This dress was beautiful and I definitely stood out. The small fit (says sz 6) but I wouldn't have felt comfortable eating or dancing necessarily. It was perfect on top (34B), but very fitted on the bottom half (130 lbs, 29" waist, 39" hips). I wore the medium (sz 8 on the tag) and I was constantly fidgeting with the top, but it was perfect on the lower half. I normally wear a size small. Color is definitely mango.

Edgy and elegant
This dress fit like a glove. I wanted something unique and slightly edgy, but this was for Make A Wish Charity Ball and I was representing my husband's business. The dress was perfect. Comfortable all night long. Weight 137, 5'4", 36C

Beautiful dress and color
I was in between sizes, but the 10 was too big on top, so I went with the 8 and no bra. It was a bit tight, but it made it work. I had worn a dress similar to this a few months before that I liked better, but this is still a beautiful dress. 139 lbs, 5'4", 36C

Compliments for days
I absolutely loved this dress. I wore it to a "ball" around Christmas. I stood out due to the incredible green color, but it was not outrageous. I was pretty comfortable, however after sitting for a while the bodice started to dig into my hips (I have a short torso). I wore the 10R, the petite wouldnt even zip up on me (weighed 155 at the time worn). With 3" heels the length worked.

I felt beautiful and sexy
I went to an at home cocktail party. I wanted to FEEL great and this dress delivered. Both the 8 and 10 fit, it came sown to preference. I couldnt wear a bra with the 8 (just didnt have the correct strapless), but the straps stayed put. I had a bit more room in the 10, I could wear a body shaper with built in strapless bra, but the straps fell down. I went with the 10; ultimately i felt more cofortable, and I just pinned the straps. I got compliments all night and into the next day.

Statement piece
I did not end up wearing this bracelet only because I decided to go a more understated, delicate look. However, I wanted to note that I have smaller wrists (measures exactly 6" around) and this fit beautifully. I was initially worried it would be loose and fall off, but I did not need to worry.

I felt sexy, classy, beautiful, and like my best self in this dress.
First of all, the quality of this dress is incredible. The fabric is substantial, but not heavy. Absolutely gorgeous. I tried on the 12 first: it was comfortable in the waist, but huge in the top...at least 2-3 inches out from my bra. The 10 (the one I wore) was definitely a more snug fit, but I still felt comfortable in it all night with a three course meal and open bar. The top was a better fit, however I could not wear a bra. The dress has stays for support, so I did not feel "unsupported" at all. The neckline on this dress is so flattering. Like I said, I felt sexy but classy.
