I wear a size 10 and ordered this suit in a size 12 and it was too small. Not only that, it was too short. I'm only 5'6". The back (not pictured) hit me in the most unflattering areas of my back. However, from the front view, it's a gorgeous suit and the material is high quality. If it weren't for the back issue, I'd order it in a larger size because it is that pretty.
