I'm 5'6", 115-120 lb, 30d bra. I measured and came out between a 2 and 4 - 4 for waist and hips, 2 for bust. I am normally a 0, but I followed the chart and recommendations and ordered a 4. Sure enough, the 4 fits perfectly in the waist and pretty well in the hips (might have been able to go a little smaller there), and is definitely loose in the torso. I probably could have squeezed into a 2, but it would have been super tight on my waist. And yes, the dress has *no* stretch, especially in the torso and waist, so there isn't any leeway there.I ordered the Royal Blue and the color is rich and vibrant and the sparkle from the sequins is amazing. The sequins are small and don't look cheap to me. The dress looks even better in person than I had expected, and the quality is definitely great for the price.My main complaints are the mesh and zipper.Mesh: There's just so much of the mesh up around the chest, neck and back, and it's a course mesh. It just looks odd to me, especially since it's a little lighter than my tan brown skin. My plan is to get it altered to reduce the mesh, but the necklace part is super cool looking and really adds to the dress, so I'm trying to decide exactly what to do. I have a couple ideas, but we'll see what a tailor says.Zipper: The zipper is *really* hard to get up and down, even when the dress is just lieing on my bed, because the sequins come right up to the zipper area and squeeze in on it's movement. It's worth it because it looks nice once the zipper is up - there's no gap in the sequin work where the zipper is - but be prepared to really work at it to get it up and down (possibly have someone help you get into it). Because the zipper is a fine dress zipper, I was really nervous about breaking it the first couple of times I pulled the zipper up and down. (It does seem to get a little easier every time, so maybe the trick is to do up and down a few times before trying it on?)Gorgeous dress and definitely worth the price!
