I had a hard time finding a dress worn by my height and body type. So i went on a limb and got this one plus another for backup. Went with this one. It was for a masquerade ball. I'm 6'1, 245#, 40 DD, Apple shape. The dress was true to size 18w. I got the long and it was a tad shorter than I'd prefer. Hit at the ankle. It's hard to zip alone so i had my babysitter help me out. Dang zipper was not zipping. We put a tiny bit of wd40 on the stuck zipper because she could not get it up for the life of her. Thank you Jesus it zipped because this was the only option i had (back up dress was hideous--in my opinion, full skirts on a dress make tall plus size look more plus size) Top is a bit big. Even with 40 DD i was worried about nipple slip without a bra. I wore my strapless and was fine. The shape of dress was flattering for my mid section. Would wear again but am excited to try other styles as well.
