PERFECTION. That's all there is to it. As to Size, These dresses are sized on the TRADITIONAL LADIES WEAR SIZE CHART instead of the designer runway size charts that put a size 10 in the plus category where it damned well does not belong. A Medium is TRUE 8-10, a large is a true 12-14. I love these dresses and I love the slinky acetate knit, I like the simple lines that make layering easy. Jostar does a good job.
