I ordered both a size 8 and size 10 and ended up wearing the 10. While I fit into the size 8, I have broader shoulders and the top portion was going to be too tight and cut in under my arm pits. The fabric is very stretchy (and forgiving) and comfortable! I'm 5'6" and it hit me a couple of inches above the knee. This dress looks a bit more gold in the pictures. It is more creamy colored. Thanks RenttheRunway for helping make me look great without breaking the bank!
