Super cute dress. For reference Im 5’3, 160 ibs 32DDD (curvy shape). I ordered a medium as usual. There are bra pads, but i still will use a strapless bra for better lift. The dress is fitted in the thigh area, but do not size up because itll be large in the bust area. Fyi: this dress compliments larger chests. The pink is a soft pink. It has sretch, but again, the thigh area is fitted (helps to avoid shifting when walking ?)
