My measurements: 5'8 hgt, 254 & loosing, 40L cup, md/sm belly, thighs & booty. My weight is evenly distributed throughout my body if that makes sense, I just have a big chest as stated. Always read reviews and product description. In reading reviews, I'm not sure where anyone could get that this dress is "see through" in anyway but THIS DRESS, IN NO WAY, IS SEE THROUGH AT ALL. It is a light material yes, on the thinner side but you can not see through anything. I am in between a 1x and 2x a good amount of the time right now mostly, because of my chest. I'm loosing weight but always have to consider the chest area. However, with pieces like this I can usually stick to a 1x because of how loose and flowy this is. About the dress: the colors are exactly as pictured which i love, the material is soft on the skin, the dress is made of light weight material which is great for summer, you can go down a size (if you have a bigger belly however I'd stick to your size, smaller girlies you probably can go down a size), the elastic around the waist allows for comfort and some wiggle room, i would wear shapewear of either a thong or shorts, it doesn't show too much cleavage in my opinion but you have always wear a broach in the front for closure (be careful doing so because the material is thin, the dress is tall girl friendly (it comes down and brushes my feet). I love this dress so much! The colors just pop and you can really wear this to anything. I plan on wearing it to an office summer rooftop party in the next week. Get it ladies! You will not be disappointed.
