I'm 5'3", 122 and a 34B. Originally I ordered a S, but could barely button it. I returned it for a M and it's perfect… not snug, but fitted. The amount of buttons are a little annoying. The sleeves aren't overly long, the fabric (zero stretch) is soft and looks more elegant than I anticipated. Looks... great with black velvet pants - would look just as nice with jeans or a skirt.
I loved the look of this shirt online -- very Practical Magic/'90s energy. But the sizing is WILDLY off. I ordered my usual XL and it was comically tiny. I could tell at a glance there was no way I'd get it on without unbuttoning every one of the teeny, fussy buttons. Even then, once I got it onto m...y arms, it was obvious the front wasn't coming together by a long shot. The two front panels didn't meet at all -- there was a wide vertical gap of at least 8 inches between the button side and the corresponding buttonholes on the other side. This wasn't a "one button is pulling" situation; the panels never even approached the center of my chest—and although I'm not flat-chested, my bust is proportional. I'd need multiple sizes up just to meet at center. My husband even asked if they'd sent the wrong size, but both the inside label and the hang tag say XL. I actually went back to the page to make sure I didn't accidentally buy a children's top. Unless there was a labeling error on the one I received, this shirt is cut dramatically smaller than a typical women's Gap XL. If you're considering it, plan to size up significantly by 2 or more sizes up.

I love the shirt. It has a lot of buttons which aren't totally visible when you look at the picture. You also need to wear a shirt underneath so make sure you buy a big enough size. Mine worked perfectly.

Such a gorgeous shirt! Bought my usual size because I found the next size up to fit too wide and loose in the arm and torso. #sweepstakes

Not sure why everyone's saying this runs small. I normally get an XS or S but sized up to a M due to other reviews, but it was massive on me. So take that as you will.

Beautiful design but fabric didn't feel as soft as I would have liked, but a little scratchy. Also, I am an XS, but eh XS was a bit tighter than other XS I have purchased from the GAP. The front tie didn't seem helpful or pretty and the sleeves didn't fall gracefully I thought. Once on, it just didn't have the wow factor, and if something doesn't just look a "wow" then it goes back.

This is a lovely top, but it runs small, especially in the chest. Size up if you have a larger chest.

I'm normally a large so based on other reviews, I sized up to an XXL as I have a large chest and wanted to make sure the blouse closed. However, the XXL was way too wide and the sleeves were long. I think the XL might be a better fit? Either way, the blouse is beautiful and the material is soft. The tiny buttons are a hassle though.

Love this blouse, it is nice quality, no stretch and just see through enough. I'm usually a small in gap tops -I feel run larger than other brands. I have a short torso and barely any boobs. 5'5 125lbs the small fit, but felt too tight in the chest in arms. Re ordered it in a medium to give it one more chance.
