I adore this dress, but i never would have bought it if i didn't wear it with a belt. as some reviewers have said, it's a sack. the belt takes care of this. it still isn't a slimming dress, but i really don't mind--the elegance and comfort make up for it.

i'm 5'10", 34c, and curvy in the hips, and the medium fit perfectly. i could see this fitting strangely if you were larger in the bust.
