Note on fit: Fit was loose in the bust and shoulder, dress was clipped at the back of the bust for some photos, in other photos we captured the dress worn off-the-shoulder which also made for a great look! McKenna is 5’2 31-25-35 with a modern dress size 2-4, letter size XS and a size 25 in jeans.
***All items are measured while the garment is laying flat. The bust, waist & hip measurements have already been doubled for your convenience.***
