I love, love, love this dress. I'm 5'8'' and 135(ish) pounds, and wear a 34 (or maybe 36? I haven't been rightly measured) D/DD cup. When I got the dress on Friday, I tried it on right away and honestly, I wasn't too excited about it. However, looking back at it now, I think it was because I tried it on fresh out of the bag (so it was a little wrinkly) and without makeup or jewelry on. When I added all of those things on Saturday-- this dress was AMAZING. The fit up top was incredible, and the straps are thick enough that you can wear a bra (and after two kids, that's super helpful). It even has those little snaps in the straps so you can snap your bra strap in and it won't be falling down all night. I wore my typical everyday bra, and it worked perfectly -- and that thing isn't flimsy, trust me! There are alternating panels of silk and chiffon on the bottom which make this dress super flowy and so much fun to walk and dance in. I wore the 6L (it was the only size 6 available on the date I needed), and it was definitely an L. I wore my highest heels with it (maybe 3-4 in?) and was still stepping on the dress a little. A 6R would've been perfect, but honestly, when I took the heels off at the gala, it just made the dress look like it had a little train, so it wasn't really an issue. This dress was also super comfy and made me feel like a queen. I got so many compliments on the dress all night -- I highly recommend it! Just make sure you leave time to iron or steam the dress before you go - the material makes it wrinkle in transit.
