THICK dress & runs small
I ended up not going with this dress though it was my "primary" choice for my event. I could not even zip up the 4R and the 6R was quite tight for me. You can see I am spilling out of the skirt a little. Overall, it was just too uncomfortable to wear all night long, which is why I decided against wearing it. I suggest sizing up from what you think you should order as your backup at least. The material is very thick and I had concerns about dancing all night (and sweating profusely) as well. Length was good though - I have on 2.5" heels in the photos.

Beautiful for a black-tie event
The only available size for my dates was a 6R, so I went with that based on previous reviews. I definitely needed a 4R instead, but the 6 worked for the night. It was light enough to dance and not die, but long and just fine for a December night in the Northeast. Lots and lots of tape was used to keep me from having a potential wardrobe malfunction. I think if my chest was a size or 2 smaller, I wouldn't have had so many concerns. Also, I wore 2.5" heels and the dress was slightly long, but not too long for me.

Exactly what I was looking for! Such a fun dress!
The colors, fabric, weight, cut, details, all of it were perfect and comfortable for an August wedding! I'm usually a 2 or 4 and the XS was easy to move in and stay in all night. I even could have potentially sized down again but this was great.

Comfortable, light fabric, and unique cut. Pretty pattern/color.
Fit true to size, but just didn't do it for me. The length in the petite was perfect (I'm 5' tall). I'm a 34D, 130lbs and usually wear a size 2 or 4. Would've been able to eat, sit, and dance comfortably all night in this, easily.
