Juno Sleeveless Smocked Tiered Maxi Dress

Size down, like at least two sizes. I tried this dress on in store in a size large (I normally wear an xl in most dresses) and thought one size down would make it fit better. I just received the medium in the mail and I could easily go down one more size to a small. Super cute dress and totally worth the hassle but runs large. Quite honestly, it’s refreshing to have women’s clothing run too big. No one wants to send an awesome dress back because they couldn’t squeeze into it.

The shape of this dress is cut well and flattering (at least on my body). It’s not tight but the smocked bodice and skimming skirt gives a nice shape and is still sexy with the neckline. I’m 5’3”, 34G bra, and about 162 lbs, and if I had ordered this online I would have gotten an M or L but I ended up trying this on in store and getting the XS. The sizing on this one is very, very oversized. The XS still gives plenty of room up top because of the smocked top, while still nipping in at the waist and allowing the skirt to skim the rest of my body. Very pretty!

The description said true to size so I ordered a medium as I’m currently 8 months pregnant and weigh 146 pounds. My normal pre-pregnancy size was small. The medium was comically large. I returned it and got an XS which actually fits great! The length is perfect for me (5’2”) and I love that there are pockets. If I wasn’t pregnant, I’d probably return this because it’s a heavy skirt with quite a bit of fabric, but I’m keeping it as a maternity dress!
