I love this dress. It fit me perfect. I’m 5’5” 225 lbs. I’m pear shaped. I carry my weight in my butt, belly and thighs. I have an apron belly from having babies. I’m very self conscious about it. I have a very hard time finding things that fit my lower body and aren’t huge on my upper body. This dress was wide enough for my bottom, but didn’t drown my upper half. I ordered the xxl. I got so many compliments on this dress. It’s also light and airy for summer but it’s not see through and cheap.
