Cascade Short Dress

Since Marina specializes in plus-size brands it makes sense that their sizes run on the bigger side. Depending on the brand I can wear anything from a 4 to an 8 so I figured a 6 would be fine for me. It was at least a size too big for me, perhaps more. I don't consider myself plus-size but obviously the term doesn't hold much weight in the fashion world. I would round down a size when ordering. I'll be returning :-(

This is a lovely dress, but has some unfortunate placing of seams on the chest. I'm 37 D and the stitching on the chest pointed right at my ......... . Yep, don't need two arrows pointing right there. I tried it in the fuchsia, and the seams were just too noticeable. Maybe wouldn't be an issue in black? Would give 5 stars if not for the seams.
