I was very excited to receive this slinky little number. I am a 12-14 (closer to 14 if I’m honest) and the XL was a good fit. Only thing I’d say was a little lacking for me was the length at hip. But that said I do have a long body (but short stumpy legs, as my husband informs me) and often struggle with bodies etc. The rich blue is true to the onsite images and the material feels nice and of a fair quality, relative to the price. The detail is really pretty and the breast area quite flattering. A nice piece to have as an alternative to the traditional black lace!
