5'0 145 pounds and the 8 Petite fits like a dream. I was nervous based on the reviews I read about sizing up but going up one size turned out to be the right call for me. I love the adjustable sash and the cut is perfect as well as the length. Will be my go to for special events this summer!

It's stunning!! I will love this dress forever. The moment I saw it I knew it would be my new favourite. Then I tried it on. It's gorgeous.

I ordered a size 10, I am 5.7 and 147lb. I wear a size 30 Gap jeans, and 28 at Loft. I ordered it for a wedding, it looks very chic!

Beautiful dress! Great for small busted women like me, love the shape but unfortunately runs small in rib/waist needed to size up cause the torso is fitted(there are a couple dart like seams running down the torso that make it very fitted).

I ordered an XL and it was too small unfortunately. The print is amazing and the style is gorgeous. Wish it worked for me.

Might be cute on some people but on me, the tie wrap around to the back was just awkward and ill fitting, even though it was my correct size.

Absolutely beautiful dress… IF you're small breasted!! I really wanted to keep the dress but I am a 36 DD and bought size 8 (my normal size). Going up a size still would have not solved the problem and would have been too loose elsewhere. If your a size C or smaller, I would for sure buy. Unfortunately I had to return.

I usually wear a size 6 petite sized up to an eight petite after reading the comments. For the record I am 5'2 140 pounds 34D. I was unable to zip this up once I hit my breast area. Fit perfectly everywhere else I think I would have to size up to a 12 to Cover my chest . Very disappointed in not being able to zip it up all the way as if it's perfectly everywhere else. tailoring quality of material styling are all 100% I gave it one less star because of snugness in the chest area.

This dress is completely different from the one pictured on the website. First, if you're looking for white, it is not even close. It is much more oatmeal or beige. Worse, the cut of the dress is not as shown in the photo and video. The skirt is strait cut from the ribcage. There are no pleats as shown in the video. So unless your butt is thinner than your back/ribs (which I think is almost impossible), the body of the dress will cling to your front like saran wrap. It seems like the video was made prior to actually developing the pattern and sewing the dress. The linen is nice -- too bad they wasted it on this cut.

This fits much tighter on me than my other Banana dresses. The tie on the bust unfortunately also does not work if you have a large chest. If you have a straighter build and smaller chest I think this would work well though — fabric was nice!
