And don't worry about your size. Sizing in formal wear is usually a little bit smaller than the things you purchase in a department store and part of the reason for that is because we're actually fitting our body measurements, whereas the things we wear day to day are loose fitting and they're not actually contoured to our body. But the things that are fitting our body are just going to be a size or two smaller than what you're used to but don't worry about the number. The important thing is proportion and if you have a figure that's proportioned, say about eight inches between your bust and your waist and another maybe ten inches between waste and hip, you're well proportioned and you can be an eight or you can be an eighteen and still look terrific in a lot of gowns.
