I love that it has pockets and as far as size I am 5ft tall weighting about 150 and ordered a Medium and it fits perfectly

I ordered a Large for ny 39 bust line. I could have ordered a Medium. I love this dress. I have the light blue dress also and will order more colors and patterens3.

If you are large breasted , the empire waist, might show the girls too much! I like the dress, and will ware it.
