    Sadly not a good fit

    This dress is also quite tight on me.

    Even though it is a size medium, there is little room for my curves.

    I am normally a size 10.

    Beautiful feel…

    Fabric has a beautiful feel to it & dress is super comfy. However, the colour I chose is not the greatest for ‘showing all’. A darker colour would have been a better option.
