“Must fit PERFECTLY to look good”

“My husband got a size 2 for me and I thought it would be too small (I'm 5'2", 125#; I often wear size 6 or 8 in dresses). Instead, it was too loose in the waist and the shoulders are very broad, which usually isn't a problem for me. But because the fabric drapes so beautifully if it is too loose it becomes shapeless. And then the asymmetrical neckline flops all over if the shoulders and bodice don't fit well. If it had been more form fitting this would have been a beautiful dress for formal work settings and special occasions. The frabric was thin but thick enough that you don't need a slip. It is cut on the bias so if it were more form fitting it would still be comfy. Too bad I'm not getting bigger along with clothing sizes.”
