“I have lots and lots of Donna Jo items and XL (size 3) fits me well and even some size 2s. For reference I am 5’9” and a solid ladies US size 14/16. This dress, because of the built-in shorts, just didn’t fit at all. It wasn’t long enough, and I’m not particularly long in the torso. Also if you have any belly, this may not be particularly flattering. I was even thinking I could wear this as a bathing suit…but it just didn’t look good. On the bright side, the fabric and colors are just as awesome as the rest of my Dona jo items! Unfortunately, I had to return.”
