I love this dress. it is a fun and flirty summer dress. i think it can be dressed up or worn casually. i am a 36c, 29" waist, 40" hips. i bought a size 8 and it fits me great. as others said, it is a little snug across the chest, but i think it is supposed to be. with the proper bra it fits very comfortably! i am going to wear it for mother's day brunch!
