I am 5' 0" and a little on the chubby side (curvy as my boyfriend calls it).  I wear a 36 D.  I was most attracted to this dress because it is a shorter dress and I was hoping it would not fit me too long (this sometimes happens when I buy a dress in a larger size).  I bought it in a large and was happy to find that it fit me comfortable and hit right above the knee.  I wore it on a date night with my boyfriend.  I wore a different, dressier belt.  This dress is a little sheer, but I wore black underwear underneath and I don't think you could see them.  Then again this was in the late afternoon so I didn't wear it in full sunlight.  This dress was extremely comfortable and breathable.  My only complaint was that one of the buttons kept popping open.  I am not sure why as the top did not "stretch" at the chest as some dresses tend to do.  I figure it might be an easy fix with some thread.  I would definitely be interested in ordering this dress in different patterns!  Oh and I almost forgot, I did nearly have a "Marilyn Monroe" moment when a breeze came through on my to the car, so you might keep that in mind if you wear it on a windy day.
