Worn once for a wedding and dry cleaned! No alterations. I fluctuate between size 6 and 8 in dresses and have a size 34A bra size and wider hips. This dress has built in bra cups and adjustable straps. I am 5’9” and wore heels about 1-1.5” tall and the dress just *slightly* drug the ground. Shorter girls would likely need to hem it
