I added some gold appliques and turned this into a 1920s "flapper" dress for a 1920s party; got rave reviews! I'm 5'2, 110 lbs, and ordered a 34 (because there wasn't a 32). I had to take it in about 1/2 inch on each side under each armpit, then it fit perfectly. I love the lace on the front and on the hem.
