Pretty dress
This one is very pretty in person. The top is structured and not a lot of give to it. I couldn’t zip the S but I think a M would be too big. I do think the fabric on the skirt would have worried me if I would have worn it. It seems more delicate.

Short!
I would need a 4 for sure and could maybe even do a 4-6R. The 0P hits well above my ankles and I’m 5ft. I cannot zip it so I am not going to post a picture. It’s a really pretty dress and but I’m not sure how the bow part works. I’m not sure I would order in my correct size to try again in case I couldn’t figure out the bow. Maybe someone will post how to do it haha

My favorite dress
The dress was a little snug but it worked fine with shapewear. Camouflages the belly area, heavier fabric so good for cooler months. Definitely not good for warm weather events. I was so comfortable all night and the length was perfect. I had on a 2ish inch heel. A 2p might have been a perfect fit. At first, I was wishing I had sized up but I think a 4 would have been too big.

4p was a good fit
I think if your only option is regular length in your size, you can make it work with a higher heel. I have a 2ish inch heel on in the picture. I don’t think I’ll wear this one because the cowl neck is laying a little weird on me but it’s definitely a nice, classic black dress. The stomach area isn’t tight so I don’t feel like I would need shape wear. It does have a very short zipper and it may be tough to get on. I have pretty slim hips and it was still a little snug pulling up.

Perfect for my Mardi Gras ball!
This dress was super comfortable! It was slightly long and I had on 3ish inch heels! I felt so pretty and it was great to dance in. The velvet was soft and really light/not heavy. I didn’t feel constricted at all. The top/fitted part of the dress was a perfect fit. This was actually my backup dress and I really wanted something with more bling for my event. However, it ended up being the one! In street clothes I wear a 24/25 in pants and a small shirt.

Beautiful dress! I wish it would have worked.
This would have been my pick, but it was way too big. A 2P would have fit perfectly though. It was big around and in length. The pictures don’t show how pretty it is in person. In street clothes I wear a 24 or 25 in pants and a small top.

Comfy, stretchy dress
I didn’t end up wearing this one because it was snug on my belly and I would have been self conscious. I put that it fit just right because it was perfect (if I was more comfortable) BUT I didn’t even unzip it to put it on. I actually didn’t realize it had a zipper until I took it off! It’s really stretchy. The length was great for my petite height. I wouldn’t have needed as high a heel as I did for the one I ended up wearing. I probably could have gotten away with something like a 2inch heel instead. In street clothes I wear a 24-25 in pants and a small top. I’m usually either a 2 or 4 in formals.

I loved this dress!!
The pictures don't do this dress justice. It's beautiful in person. It made me feel so fancy! There was some stretch to it so it was forgiving and I felt so comfortable in it. Even in a petite it was still a little long for me with my 3 inch heels but not too long to be an issue. The lace on shoulder was a little big for me but also not noticeably so . I got lots of compliments on it and there wasn't anything else like it there.

Pretty dress
I was torn between this dress and the other one I received. I ended up going with the other one but it was a tough decision. Both were a 6p, but this one was a little more snug on my belly than I was comfortable with. The side is gathered a bit which is a nice camouflage but not enough for me.

Beautiful dress
I didn't wear this dress because it didn't fit. But it is even better in person! The lace is beautiful and has some stretch to it. It's a showstopper for sure!
