Just get the dress, seriously! If you're a mix of top-heavy, bottom-heavy, with big arms, be prepared for a wrestling match to wear it. Even a large won't handle the curves—I need to drop 15lbs to breathe! I'm 5'5, 215lbs, with a small tummy, short torso, big thighs, and a booty to boot, plus a 38C chest. It's like a second skin at first, but it eases up with each struggle to put it on. Got it for my birthday, but I might just save it for Valentine's Day—because it's all kinds of sexy!
