Love the fit!
Love the fit of this dress, and it has pockets! Being larger in the chest it is great to find a dress I can wear without a bra.

I loved this dress from the moment I saw it and I was happy I waited to buy it. I got it when it was on sale and I had a reward so I got it for a song and I'm so happy I own it. I'm like 5ft. nothing and depending on the style, cut, and fabric I usually wear between a size 1 or 2 (18-20) for Torrid dresses. I read the reviews and looking at the material it was made of (mostly cotton) I decided on the size 20. Overall it fits well, it fits me like a true tea length dress, hitting right in the middle of my calf in bare feet and I will be wearing heels with this dress. I can feel the strip of fabric under the breasts, but I expected it since it's supposed to be more form fitting and give you a snatch waist like a corset would. I agree if someone is small chested, like me (40/42B), it probably will be loose on you. I wouldn't wear it without my strapless bra, which helps fill it out. I also agree it does fit a little better if the straps are tightened, but the arm hole is right up in your armpit. I haven't washed and dried it yet and I usually line dry, but might try it in the dryer the first time to hopefully slightly shrink it. I haven't really noticed if its see through, but I will probably put one of my crinoline skirts under it to give it some more volume and to act as a slip. I'm hoping to wear this during the summer and hopefully next year at my cousin's wedding.

I adore this dress
Super adorable. I’m 5’8, 42J bust and 245 pounds. I ordered a 16 and it fits perfectly. Most dresses are hit or miss when you’re busty and I saw many reviews that said it didn’t fit in the chest for other ladies because they’re less endowed. So if you’re like me and have a larger bust, this is a great choice. My one complaint is the zipper is difficult. Even when trying to zip it back up to put on a hanger. I’m worried about the durability but hopeful it doesn’t break or get stuck.

I’m obsessed! This is an adorable dress. It makes me feel like a cute lil lemon drop! I wish it were lined but otherwise, no complaints.

LOVE IT!!!
Love love love this dress!!!!!!!
The yellow print is adorable and I absolutely love the contrasted white on the bottom hem. The bust is made such that you don’t absolutely have to wear a bra. It’s so flattering and comfy!!!!

Adorable!
Fantastic colour and print - had no clue that the pleated bodice would be so revealing though...heads up about that!

Fits perfectly, stretch in all the right places. Love the lace on bottom, feels like a good amount of fabric. Glad there is a liner

Cute print
Love the print and colors of this dress. Feels like it'd be nice material for the summer. Sadly this dress didn't like me lol. I'm apple shaped and it made my belly very prominent. Sad I'll have to return because it's a beautiful dress.

I absolutely love this one!
I am a US 22-24/3X, larger/apron belly, smaller bust with no butt for reference. I am a 2 with torrid and got this in a size 20.
This dress is just so cute honestly. The skirt isn't lined but didn't find it see through personally. The print, colors matched with the lace trim is fantastic. I typically have a gapping issue with lower necklines because of having a smaller bust/tear drop shape bust and the gapping was very minimal with this.
