I was very surprised that this dress would be as nice as it was considering what I paid for it.  For reference, I'm 5'2", 118lbs, 34C with a 31" waist. I was worried my waist would be too big for a size small, but because the dress had stretch to it, it was perfect.  The length was just right even though I'm short.  I love how the top is full coverage so I don't have to worry about my breast hanging out.  You get to a certain age where you want to look sexy but modest at the same time.  I also love how wide the trim is on the blouse portion of the dress - it perfectly hides my armpit fat! LOL.  Overall I'm very happy with this dress.  It looks lovely with and without a petticoat.  I just hope it doesn't wrinkle easily.
