It is a really beautiful piece, the sizing is surprisingly a little snug in the chest considering how large the rest of it is. I have a 38" bust and assumed it would be a bit of a looser fit, but if I wear a proper unlined bra it is snug on me. This also makes the small armholes a bigger problem (they are SO much bigger on the model, on my size 8 frame somehow they are hitting just about 1.5" below my armpit), as they are already kind of chafing on my underarm. I may have to return it. If you don't have over a DD cup you may be fine but the arm holes would still bother me.
