I just got this in the mail today, an hour ago and as an overweight women I hesitate to buy clothes online.  Having had this item sit in my shopping cart for a week debating I went for it and I am glad I did. I have to sacrifice nothing to look beautiful in this item  my measurements are 38 at bust 32 at waist 43 at the hips.  I'm about 185 to 190 depending on the day,  i'm 5"4'. I'm broadshouldered.
