this dress is so pretty I love it. I love the rushing on the sides and the slit is in the perfect spot. I sized up and ordered a large the first time I ordered this because I read in the reviews that someone was saying that the bust of the dress ran really small. and the large did fit but I wanted it to be tighter so I looked more snatched. and the best part is small in my regular size, not so small that it hurts me but it's definitely noticeably small. I might keep the large just for that reason
