I’m 5’9, about 190lbs. I was a bit concerned whether or not this dress would be too short in a size medium but it definitely wasn’t. It’s super cute and has a lot of stretch. It goes all the way to over my knees. It hugs my curves and still looks flattering because I don’t have to pull it down when I wear it. The material is super soft and the gold buttons makes it look quite chic. I would suggest you get your usual size.
