I am a size 16 and I am wearing a 1X. The bottom fits my hips and waist perfectly. The top, though, is way too big. In the picture I had to safety pin both sides and also wear with the vest. I love the silhouette, but the top needs some tweaking. The fabric is amazing.

Love this style of the dress! Fits true to size ♥️

Dress fit like a glove! Saw all the positive reviews and decided to purchase it. It’s been a bit tricky with sizing since I am a petite plus size busty girl but this dress fit me perfect. The picture doesn’t do it justice.

The shape is so flattering, definitely a must have!

Fit is a little off I wanted to love this dress!! I think I would if I stuck to my normal size. It’s so beautiful and the detail is amazing. The sizing relies on your waist though. I sized up to be cautious, but then the shoulders and top were way too big. Stick to your normal size (in my opinion). I think the waist still would’ve worked for me.

Love this dress! I was finally able to wear my ariel dress with my daughter. This dress is very form fitting, so when they say no stretch they mean it! I got soo many compliments!

First of all the elastic on the shoulders was so loose it just hung way below the shoulders. I had to open up the seam and cut about an inch and a half of the elastic then sew the ends back together and tack back the same. Second for a size large it is so much different than the other three size large I have purchased. Extremely snug and to make it worse there was an extra panel of doubled over fabric by the zipper. Totally unnecessary to have this extra. I will be trimming that away too. I think someone must have made a mistake and tried to add on I don't know what was going on with it really.

I ordered up to a size medium in this dress and it fits great! I usually wear a small or x-small, but the medium fits great! I love the color and detail of this dress, the subtle green color is a perfect and unique addition to my Ivy City Co obsession!

I am so happy I kept working with the sizes on the Ariel! I ended up returning the larger size for the next size down and the sleeves stayed up and the torso was not too tight. I feel so feminine in this dress, love this silhouette

I wanted to love this! Unfortunately, the elastic at the shoulders seemed off..one side was perfect, but the other was loose; it was falling off my shoulder. Ended up returning.

Such a beautiful color and shape! I was worried my muffin top would render the dress unwearable, but the shape was surprisingly flattering! I don’t even have any shapewear on in the pic I posted. Wow! Size L 36b, 5’4, 140-145 lbs. I feel so feminine!

Beautiful dress but as others mentioned it’s a bit snug around the waist

Gah, the Ariel is gorgeous! The material is so unique and the colors perfect. I sized up since it said the torso/waist was a bit snug. I loved the fit every where except for the sleeves- they are so big! And I'm afraid I would be adjusting the sleeves all day long as they kept slipping down.

The print of this dress is so gorgeous! I bought this for my mom in her normal size large and it fits perfect.

This dress is so so beautiful, but not on me. Lol the detail on this dress is amazing. I so wish it looked good. Will probably search for it when I lose the baby weight

I consider myself a full-fledged Ivy City fangirl. I have like 25+ Ivy dresses hanging in my closet as I type this. The Ariel dress is a true dream. I LOVE this silouette and coveted it from the moment I saw a sneak peak of it on the Ivy insta account. When this dress came out, I decided to size up to make sure it would hug all my curves exactly right. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the size large to zip up (the two halves of the zipper came togehter but I couldn't pull the zipper up at the defined waistband line). So I ordered the XL to see if I could make that work instead. I had to have help but I FINALLY managed to get the XL to zip up, but unfortunately the bust gapes so much that the sleeves constantly fall down off m shoulders, and the bust "puffs out" on the sides giving me a weird puffy appearance above the very narrowly-defined waist line. I don't know why the waist is so disproportionately narrow but I am begging Ivy City - please make more dresses in this style, but make the waist more proportional to the bust and hips! Because I need this style of dress in my closet desperately.

My fuller figured friends, don’t be afraid of this silhouette! I went up from my usual size to give me more room in the tummy and glad I did because the waist is snug. I feel so sleek and dare I say “cool”. Can’t wait to wear it out!

I sooo wanted this to work for me but the sizing was off for me. I ordered the usual size in ICC (small) and it was perfect everywhere but my waist, which is odd considering that my waist is usually the least of my concerns (I'm pear shaped). Honestly, I could barely breathe. Had it been a smidge (an inch or two more), would've been a perfect fit! I didn't want to go up a size b/c then my chest would be too loose (I'm 34A with broad but slim shoulders). Sadly, sent it back.

I should have sized up! Definitely going to exchange for a XL.

I was hesitant with this one because I’m still trying to lose some baby weight, but after seeing the reviews, I too was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful this dress was on me! It does run small, which is why the dress measurements are extremely helpful! And of course, the reviewers here! I sized up from my usual, and do love the uniqueness and form-fitting shape. A definite must have!

Absolutely love love love this dress. It definitely runs small, so if you’re in between sizes you might want to size up. It’s a gorgeous dress though!

What a pleasant surprise!! I thought there was no way this dress was going to look flattering on me but I LOVE it!!! The print and fabric are absolutely beautiful and it’s so very unique. I did have to size up - there was no way the waist on my regular size was going to fit. The zipper is a little sticky but that’s what friends are for, right?! Can’t wait to wear this one

This dress is very pretty, but, in my opinion runs on the smaller side. The waist band runs small in proportion to the rest of the dress( I may order another medium to see if mine is defective) but overall a very pretty fit. Stunning colors, and it can easily be dressed up or dressed down with white trainers and a denim jacket. Love it!

Wow. This dress is STUNNING! I was a little hesitant to get this mermaid style dress, but it hugs my curves in all the right places. It’s so flattering! My measurements are pretty much exactly the same as the size Medium on the size chart. And the color scheme on this dress is so calming. Love it! Highly recommend.

Ahhh!!! This dress is STUNNING!! It is such a beautiful silhouette! I have wanted this dress since I first saw it in a sneak peek and it does not disappoint!! It is a little looser than I would like in the bust area, but I do have a small bust. I’m in size xs for reference. I am so obsessed with this dress though!!!! Amazing job, ladies!!! This dress is gorgeous!
