I bought this a year ago. I did size up as I bought this for showing dogs and needed to be sure I had room to move easily. The length is great and doesn't show anything when I bend down. It does ride up above the knee during activity but most would not be jogging in it so would probably not be a problem. Doesn't wrinkle too much, and has held up great.I was never a huge fan of wearing the color YELLOW but one day a few years ago I whole heartedly changed my mind. I wore this little number just for a regular Sunday morning and I received so many compliments on both the fit and the color. I have HIPS (XL) and this dressed touched every single solitary one. I am curvy but the bust area was a little big so I accessorized with a Lapel Pin to disguise the gap. I love this dress and it made me feel beautiful. #BeCuteA little snug. Wasn't expecting that material. But I liked it over all.. Will get a Medium next time.This was used for my dad's funeral who recently unexpectedly passed away a couple days ago???I am 5'3, 122 lbs but I also have a bigger butt. I got a size small. As you can see from the side view, the back of the dress came up a bit. I could've gone with a medium, but when I did try it on, it seemed to not hug my curves as much, which I prefer. If you wanna move around comfortably then go with a mediumGreat Dress for an All White Party! The fit and length is nice. I received many compliments on the dress. I will order other colors.I ordered multiple colors of this dress (Kelly Green, Olive, Coral color, etc.,...). They all appear to be just as lovely & vivid as shown in the product photos. For the Camel color (originally my favorite), it turned out to have a slightly pinkish? hue. Not sure how to describe it. Yet, I was looking for more of a true, richer camel color with more yellow undertones. Still a beautiful color, nevertheless.Loved the poly spandex fabric. (Disclaimer: This is that stretchy polyester fabric found in bargain dresses at discount store chains. It is quite stiff, "loud", and can be unforgiving in revealing bulges of excess fat. Just sayin'. But, I'm weird and oddly **prefer** and seek out this fabric. For me, it acts as inexpensive shapewear in itself. ) Is thick enough to help you feel "contained". perfectly functional, smooth invisible zipper. Dress construction seems great, especially for such a relatively affordable price. Dress is **unlined**. Any thick shapewear will likely show thru as indentations.Sizing: [I'm 5'1" , 110lbs, lately wearing Dpt store sizes 2 & 4, whereas @ my normal weight I'd wear a Sz 0). My current disproportionate measurements don't mesh well with this dress (not the dress' fault!). I have a short torso, currently a boxy waist :( approx 28" ?, & am very bottom heavy at the moment. I wanted a tailored, yet not body-con/overly fitted look for this dress. Wasn't sure of what size to order; Therefore, I ordered a range of sizes Small thru Large in the desired colors to find the best fit. The Medium had enough room to accommodate my bottom (large was the least "revealing"), yet my extra belly fat & love handles were accentuated by the Medium's waist, and my 30D smaller bust size left a bit of a void at the bust of the Medium= I couldn't fill it out adequately. The size small was tooo fitted for my liking and the size large would need tailoring to nip in the wider parts. Dress is long on my short height (well below my knees), but I wanted it to be long.>>>>>>Recommendations: if you desire a body-con, fitted look = perfect for sum1 who has an hourglass figure. If you desire a more conservative-esque, less form-fitting look (even for non-corp Office attire, if the neckline isnt an issue) = perfect for sum1 with average bust size, an average yet toned waist, and slender/toned thighs & buttocks.<<<<<<
