Metallic Floral Brocade Cocktail Dress

I bought this dress for my sister for my graduation celebration. I was worried about the exact size as many people mentioned it runs large. I do agree that this dress is not made for any body shape. However, the size I chose for my sister fit like a glove. She loves the dress and looks like a princess.

This dress is so regal and the material is thick and heavy. Runs very large. Normally I’m a size 8-10 in dresses. 5’7” waist 29-30”, hips 45-47”, bust 38”. The size 4 fits nice and cinched without the need to wear a bra. The size 6 fit comfortably but slightly loose in the bust when not wearing a bra. Im going with the size 4. It’s long and hits between the ankle and knees. Picture shows the size 6 on.
