I'm in love with the look of this dress but my measurements are all over the place (according to this size chart).  Bust 44, waist 34, hips 43.  Also note, my arms are on the chubbier side.  From your experience with this dress, do you think I should size up to my biggest measurement (2xl) even though my hip measurement is in the Medium range?  Or could I get away with an XL?  I've heard this dress has like no strech, I just don't want it to look like a bag throughout the hips.

I've included the size chart for Mon Cheri below :).

 

Thanks for any response!

Hi Rachel!

I would go with the 2X. That's the size that I got (my measurements are out of proportion because I'm an apple but similar). There isn't much stretch and the sleeves feel kind of tight on the 2X so definitely get that one. I find that the extra space in the hips gives me an hourglass shape I would not have otherwise :) I hope that helps! 

Yes, thank you Lourdes!! I can't wait to own this dress, I've been eyeing it since April but was worried about the measurements. Live chat always tells you to order up but I wanted to get the opinions of others. Thanks again! :)

Hi!

Yes, I agree with what's been said. I have that dress in XL myself, and I'm not that many inches smaller than you, and I feel that the sleeves are quite snug, and although the hips are roomy, it still feels like it's tight over the bum when I sit down. Good luck! Hope it fits! It's a lovely dress! :)

Thank you!

So I have been lusting after these for some-time, but I am hesitant to buy because they are not the stretchy bengaline as the other capris are. I briefly had a pair of the leopard print capris but…Continue
