I purchased a size larger than usual. I am ample in the chest, small waist, wide hips. This. Fits. Perfect! It is very flattering. I have short arms, and the sleeves go just past my elbows.I was nervous about the length, but it went long enough to hide the tummy, but not long enough to be drab. This will not work on everyone, but if you are short, plus size, with an hour glass, this should be flattering. Order a size larger if you're looking for the look the model has.
