Viva - I'm 5ft 7in and weigh 138 lbs. Measurements are 36-30-38. I wear a 32 C or D bra, and have a broad shoulder line. The U.K. 12/US 8 in the 'Louisa' is perfect for me. The 52% cotton/48% modal jersey is stretchy and forgiving! The top part of the dress fits like a jersey t-shirt and flows away from the body at the waist and over the hips. The dress is plenty long, a midi for sure, and falls below the knee in regular. I would say the dress runs TTS. I would not size up.
I was most pleased with the sleeves. They are roomy, but without being too long or having too much volume. The shape is very pretty with a nod to the current full sleeve trend without being over the top. The dress is supremely comfortable to wear. #1+2 Louisa, #3 Phoebe.
As you can see from pics below, I am on Team Wear! (and overdue for a haircut...)
