Absolutely worth every single penny. I am 5ft4in and about 230lbs. I got a 2xl and it fits wonderfully. I am using it for my gender reveal and I couldn't have gotten a better dress! The dress material is soft and it is just amazing. I was nervous it would be too heavy and while it does have a bit of weight to it it just adds to the luxury feel. I've loved every single item I've purchased but this is by far my favorite!
