Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First: I'm 5'9", 38 B chest, and 180 lbs; I purchased a Large and a 2XL. The photos are of the large AFTER a cold wash. Now... It’s so pretty and comfortable. Slightly see through, but definitely still wearable without a slip. Because of the fabric, I knew it would shrink so i ordered a size up, which according to the guide could still be my size. Wearing it the first time before the wash, it was comfortable, flowy, and went just about 2 inches about my knees. After a cold wash (and air dry), it’s about 4 inches above my knees, BUT it’s a better fit all around. Still comfy and flowy, but the sleeves and bottom part of the dress are shorter, and the middle elasticized part fits a bit more snug, is higher up than it was pre-wash, and puckers out a smidge now. So, just to be clear, after a wash, an XL fits like a Large and a Large fits like a Medium. With this in mind, I’d purchase this dress two sizes up to get the loose bohemian fit, or do what I did with this one and purchase a size up planning for the shrinkage; either way, you can’t lose! JUST DO NOT BUY YOUR NORMAL SIZE. Or do...maybe that’s how you roll. I won’t judge. :-) The attached photos are AFTER the wash.
