An absolutely gorgeous top. I had lots of questions about sizing from just looking at the photo, so here are my results. I got it in the size "2" (12-14) in silver; I usually wear a 14 or L (sometimes XL) in tops and I have a "pear" shape. It's too low to wear for work, but fine for a night out. A bra fits unseen under the straps and under the armholes. There is a band at the bottom to hold the pleats together, but it's thin, unobtrusive, and NOT tight across the tummy/rear. The shirt definitely looks better out, over pants or skirt, than tucked in. (It would be smashing over a pair of skinny pants if you have skinny legs :-) It's a comfortable loose fit, but definitely not pregnant-looking. (I hate big tops that make me look even bigger.) It's pure silk, and the single row of sequins is subtle (I wasn't crazy about those from the photo, but they're OK). The silver is very matte, not shiny (i.e. looks rich, not cheezy). For me, the price is not cheap, even on sale, but it is gorgeous, and works around the year.
