This dress is beautiful. I love the sparkle. But it is completely transparent on the bottom. Not enough support to use sticky bras, need to tape it down. If you are short, the halter & torso is a little to long to keep the dress in place. I'm considering returning it unless I can find shapewear or a bodysuit to wear underneath. Size is accurate, but would fit better if you are 5'5+. I'm 5'2" 135lbs 38/29. 5/40 and this dress fit me pretty well.
