"I sized up based on other reviews and it turned out to be unnecessary. The top was so big I needed to shorten the straps to compensate. My regular size (M) would have been just fine! Still a beautiful and flattering dress. Wore it for spring family photos and loved the maxi length! My husband said it is his new favorite. I'm 5'6" 140lbs for reference"

Top too small
"This dress was visually stunning, but had to return due to size. I could not actually get in the dress which was very interesting because the bottom fit perfectly. The top was almost too small for the bottom part and it was very flimsy. I’m typically a size small and definitely would need to size up in this one. The smocked detail was so deceiving because I assumed there would be some stretch, but there was absolutely none. The smocked part was just for show and was not functional. I was so disappointed because there was so much hype around this piece."

The top is SO SMALL
"First of all this dress IS lovely… but I had to send it back. The top is so dang small I couldn’t even zip it up. I’ve been a CJLA medium for a decade and sometimes I even buy small and I cannot even get close to zipping this up…. So sad 😭"

Super pretty
"The elastic in the back is useless if the bust isn’t stretchy either. The zipper was a fail in the side. Super pretty dress that can’t be worn. And no pockets…"
