Review on Summer-Ready A-Line Midi Dress With Flutter Sleeves And Smocked Bodice For Women By MEROKEETY by Teresa Diers

I am 5'4" tall, about 170 lbs of evenly distributed thickness and typically a 10-12. Occasionally I can wear a size medium, mostly I wear a size large, and sometimes I wear an XL. Initially I ordered this dress in the Ginger color, size large. It fit comfortably. The sleeves are very short, loose and flowy. The bust is quite fitted but very stretchy. It's quite loose and flowy below kind of an empire waist. The color is gorgeous- could also be considered like a mustard. I wore it and washed it twice. It did seem to have shrunk in the dryer a bit but because the top is so stretchy and the rest so flowy, it COULD still fit/function as a size large. HOWEVER. because I prefer a bit more give than stretch, I decided to try this dress in an XL and it's SO SO SO much better. I washed the XL before wearing to pre-shrink and a machine washed/dried XL is more like a brand new/never washed L. I promise if you are on the fence between L and XL, you will NOT regret choosing the XL. Now if you are a size medium, I will be listing my twice worn/washed L on Poshmark soon much cheaper than it's priced here. I just hope someone here can benefit from my experience.
