I followed the size chart and order a size 2x, it fit perfectly. I'm between sizes right now 16/18 and 5'9'' and the fit was just as pictured above. I have to say this dress is of great quality, I cannot believe I paid $10 and tax for it, it is easily worth the $200 when not on sale. The color teal is also just as pictured.Ps. I will update when I wear for an event and tske better pictures.
