I sized down
The extra small fit me perfectly, however, the dress was too heavy and hot for an August California wedding. I would wear it to a fall or winter wedding. I give this dress five stars for the quality for the money. This dress is very popular for weddings. However, I would search Lulus for other options because this was the reason why I came on Lulus for this dress and ended up wearing another Lulus dress because it was more flattering.
