Felt like a princess - purchased for a formal Christmas ball and had so many compliments! In reading reviews, I sized up - it does run small in the top. I'm 5'2" 118 lbs 34/36 bust and purchased a SIZE 4. Even with that, the top was tight so if Boston Market remakes this dress for next year the top needs to be addressed. The material is thin but for our S Texas climate, very comfortable. The length hit just below the ankle so did not drag the ground. For someone taller it may hit a little higher to highlight a beautiful shoe. The wide belt accents and pulls in the waist but you can change it out for something sparkly and smaller, if you prefer. I was able to wear a around-the-neck bra without it showing. Love the uniqueness and seasonal color/pattern of this dress - nothing came close to it's special style. Thrilled with this purchase.
