Let's start with my measurements
There are FOUR not the typical three as seen below;

Bust: 36.24", I wear a 34DD bra
Midriff: 29.5" - This measurement is taken directly under your breast.
Waist: 32.5" / Hips: 39" / Height: 5'2"
The midriff measurement is important due to how these dresses are made, they are very close to the body so think back fat. Yes, it's a thing.

So is arm fat!
I purchased Small and Medium. I could not zip the small half way up. The medium fit best overall. There is slight gap on the shoulders though the dress has not been washed. I am wearing the black crinoline slip.
