LOVE. This dress. The stretch was perfect enough to fit my curves, but not be too tight on my body. I did however wear a shaper underneath because the material was very see through. I was able to see my tattoos that I keep hidden through the dress without the shaper. But with the shaper everything was good to go! I got MANY compliments on my dress! And I felt comfortable all night. It was not too short either, because I have a decent sized bottom peach I usually can’t wear short dresses without them being too short. This was right under my knees. I will most likely order again in a different pattern or color if available! I am a 38 DD bust, I am 5'9"& 200 pounds and I ordered an XL. Hope this helps!
