TRUE TO SIZE. Bought this dress new at Nordstroms wore once after much searching for a classy, slightly conservative and in style but not frumpy gown. This dress fit perfect, and checked off all the boxes for my sons wedding. The beading is beautifully done and just enough. It is a true size 16, holds you in just right and I was able to wear a strapless bra and it not show in the back. Intricate beading along the mesh yoke lends a stunning element to this sweeping chiffon gown with a gathered waist and gathering down the back along your derriere which I loved. Has no stains or blemishes at all, LIKE NEW!
I am 5'3" and wore a 2" heel and dress just hit the floor.
