I love the dress and can't wait to show it off on Saturday (tomorrow) at my sisters wedding. Every store and every dress I was a size 8, so that's what I purchased. It fits great but it was a little tight around my rib cage. I'm a little worried that the zipper may bust but I think it'll hold. Oh and the length is amazing, plenty long. I'm 5'6" and even with my HIGH heels there's extra length. The dress is perfect for the occasion and have already received compliments about how gorgeous it is. I'd highly recommend this dress to anyone, and the company too. It took about 3 weeks to get the dress, which was perfect!
