I'm 5'1" 173 lbs. I got an extra large, still spacious if you wanted to bring in the waist, but I DEFINITELY hem the bottom. Because this dress is lonnggg....
My friend got the black one in a XL. VERY SEXY!! Shes 5'5" / 5'6" about 206. She didnt have to hem the bottom but do note there may be a little dragging. She definitely had plenty of room to bring in the waist which is advised if you have an undoubtedly hourglass shape. She had to keep adjusting her dress all night.
These dresses were perfect. Everyone loved them! Even though we forgot to wear our gloves that night, we were still very happy with the outcome.
We got sooo many compliments.
