I love this dress!  I bought it in Watermelon Red and Army Green.  The 'red' is actually Coral in color (more orange).  Strangely, the 'red' fit a tad tighter than the green even though I got the same size. This dress is very flattering and feminine.  Looks good with or without a crinoline slip. I went by the size chart in the pictures.  I ordered the XXL / 18 plus.  I'm 5' 3'' with Bust 44" and Waist 38".
