I was was a little worried when I saw the dress when I received it, but to my surprise it looked great on. I wasn't blessed hips but am in the boob department. I am 5'3" 36DD 155Ibs ordered a size 14 according to the size chart which I measured my bust to be 40". It fits great around my bust and just overall. A little loose because of my non hip status but still love the look and feel of the dress. Husband LOVED it.
