I bought this dress for a photo shoot for my daughter. She is 50 120# and I ordered a size 16. The fit is fantastic. Its very elegant, and seems to be really well made. The only downside is that it has a padded bra effect and you cannot remove the pads bc the pads are sewn down the middle to the dress. The tule looks great after you remove from the package and let it hang for a couple of days.
