I really wanted this dress to work. I was looking for a cute, flowy, maxi dress that I could use either as a bathing suit cover up or to just wear casually around the house or out to run errands. The material was nice, soft, and airy which makes me think that this would have been the perfect type of dress for that purpose. And since I'm only 5'2", the dress fell all the way to the ground for me. However, when I first tried it on, I noticed that the top part was just a tad see-thru, which I didn't want at all. I did try it on with another bra and noticed it less, but my first impression and disappointment stuck with me. Even though the dress fit, I did feel like it was a little snug in some places, but that's just my own conservative comfort level. Despite eventually returning the dress, I do still recommend it. I'm about 245lbs and ordered the XX-Large.
