Very elegant
It has no stretch. I was worried sizing up would make the top too drapey/open. I am 5'10", was long enough with flat shoes. I was able to nurse in it.

A show stopper but avoid if you have a large bust!
I wore this for my sister's bachelorette party. I am 5'10" and about 145lb. I typically take a size 4, 6 in dresses. This dress I got a 6 and a backup size 8. I wore the six. I wore a bra with it to help fill out the top. If you have a large bust line (larger than a D) I would avoid, as you would have cleavage spilling out everywhere. This looked super elegant. It also had a slight stretch to it on the bottom which helped me bust out some moves on the dance floor. The length was great. Being tall, I didn't feel like I was going to show my behind. If you have a cocktail party or bachelorette party, consider this dress!

Back is a show stopper
Love the color. Very wedding appropriate. Showed off my back, but was longer and showed no chest/cleavage. No stretch or give. I am usually a size 4/6, used the size 6 dress. Def runs 1-2 sizes small. If you are wanting to conceal and arm or back bulge, pass on this dress. I am 5'10" and about 140-145lb.

I love tbis dress, but it has no stretch or give. I am a four or six in most dresses. I am so glad I read the reviewsx ended up with a six and eight. My hips, butt and thighs appreciated the eight. I got so many compliments. Nice length for us tall ladies.
