This is the most beautiful dress! When I wore it to work, almost everyone commented and wanted to know where I got it. This is a very flattering style for those who are hourglass shaped. Definitely go a size or 2 up if you are larger on top as the fabric has slight give but the overall cut is slim on top. I wore with a petticoat and a clip bow in my hair. I am only 5 feet tall and this was mid shin but seems well in proportion. I absolutely love it
