Anthro column dress sizing?

[NachoProblem]

I'm gonna take the plunge and get it! How does the sizing run? FWIW, I'm on the curvy/pear shaped size... normally a 4-6ish in most of what I wear. Should I get a small or medium?

I think you can go either way really. I was debating btw xs and s and while I think xs might be closer to my true size, I chose a small.

I'm also pear shaped, but the dress is still nice and form fitting, but not overly clingy.

[NachoProblem]

This is what I get for hesitating. Now it's sold out in my size :-(

Get the other size!! I don't think the difference in fit will be too much.

[NachoProblem]

They're all gone! Anthro is also doing a LD sale... 25% off sale items, so the dress was only going to be like $75. I called CS and I'm debating getting it in red and having it shipped from a store. I can't decide if that's cray cray or not.

Oooh that's an awesome deal! Did you want the red originally or are you just settling? I do love the red. You would be able to return if it doesn't work, right?

[NachoProblem]

I was going to get the purple. The red is just settling... which is why I'm double thinking it.
This is the dress.

The purple is gorgeous, I prefer it to the red too.

But I mean, no harm ordering red and returning right? You might regret having not tried it.

the dress fits true to size. however, i think you could size up or down depending on your style.
