Aoife Postcard Print Maxi Dress

I first bought the top in this pattern and have gotten a lot of compliments. I hesitated buying the dress for some time because when I buy dresses from this brand, I sometimes need XS.....S....M...or...L! I am 5'9" with a DD chest. I am fit but not thin. Considering the design, material, etc., I decided to try large. It barely has room for my chest...but it works. Below the chest, I could use a medium or small. To slim all the bodice material, I wear a thin, 3/4-sleeve, open brown cardigan. I wish the dress were a couple inches longer....it seems like full-length for my height, but not quite. It flows nicely. I really like the material color and pattern. The dress breathes. I might have it altered and taken in a bit. It runs large in the bodice, but not the chest area.
