EMPRESS HIGH TEA PARTY DRESS
I JUST ADORE THE DRESS BUT WHEN I TRIED ON THE SIZE LARGE which according to the size chart was the size for me to order, the overdress/lace was so tight in the breast that I could barely zip it up. The oddest part was that the underdress pink fit just fine? I feel as though this dress may have been mismarked regarding size , especially since the under dress fits fine and the over lace dress is incredibly tight and too low exposing my upper breasts... I felt that I should at least warn possible purchasers that ordering a size up than what you usually wear even though the size chart may to be the correct measurements for you, still order a size up perhaps if my breasts were not a D or DD cup this dress would have fit much better, so take your breast size into account. I did measure my breast size and it was a 38-39. The large which I ordered shows on the chart that these bust measurements should have fit me and a large should have fit...just confused now, whether to order the X-lar

Gorgeous but runs small!
The only thing keeping me from giving this dress five stars is that, as others have said, the lace overdress runs small. I bought a large and at 5'7 and 150 pounds with small-average breasts, the lace dress is snug. The undergarment is fine and roomy even. But this sizing thing is an issue I have found with other VTC clothing. I have bought from a small-medium to a 1X to get things to fit properly. Still love everything once I got it to fit. And the dress is absolutely stunning!

Runs one size small
Very Pretty dress but I ordered Small based on my measurements on dress chart… I should have ordered Med. ??. In my opinion dress runs a size smaller than their size chart indicates. Has nothing to do with a large bust in my case….I am only a 34B. Not sure I have time to exchange . ??
