I purchased this costume a week before Halloween and was afraid that it wouldn't arrive in time. I am a service member stationed overseas so sometimes things don't show up on time lol. Thankfully it showed up the week of Halloween. I ordered a large because I wasn't sure if a medium would cut it. I am a busty woman and I am happy to say that it fit PERFECTLY. I bought a petticoat like other reviewers said to do and I'm glad I did because without a petticoat so much would have been showing even with pantyhose on. I loved everything about this costume and got so many compliments on it at the Halloween party I went to.
