I purchased for a small courthouse wedding. I was so skeptical when it came to sizing so I decided to go with a large because you can always have it taken it. It fits perfect!! I’ll only need to have the breast area taken in. The dress is made with great material and it’s so heavy. I absolutely love it. I almost love this dress more than my original dress that was over $1K. So glad I got this one on sale for $35. Definitely a win!! GET THE DRESS!! I’m 5’0 / 147lbs. 34 - 29 - 40 I have a small waist but hips and booty
