I ordered a SM and MD due to mixed reviews on fit. Ended up keeping the SM. Length is perfect, so no need to hem. I will say, it isn\'t that forgiving in the mid section, so if you have any lumps or a little pooch (like me) you may need smoothing undergarments. Other than that, I really like this piece. I am 5\'3, 127 lbs, 34DD and SM fit best.
