I am 5'1" and this was about 3 inches above my knee. I found it to run a little big. Plenty of room for the bust in a medium. Wrinkles just pretty much fell out after hanging for a few days. Steam quickly released the rest. I am busty with bigger arms and I found the sleeves to be a generous size which is not always the case in dresses that lack stretchiness. It would look great belted but that may add to the shortness. I found it to be very flattering. The Aline hides flaws.
