I love this blouse, it is roomy on my breast and not tight on my belly (I have some extra "curves" there), looks cute enough to go out on a Friday night with jeans and heels, or just a short and slips. Also the kind style of this cut normally doesn't make justice to chunky lady like me, I have tried another ones, but this one doesn't make me look like a football player on the top, the O neck is just great for my kind of shape and clears the neck so it looks very good. I am a full body 43 years old woman with 1.51", 168 pounds, 36C and I bought size XL (one size up of my normal L), about the color, it is not straight red, it is like a burned red, so it is nice because I already have blood red outfits, and this is different. About the material, it is soft Viscose fabric, fresh and nice for this Florida weather, it could stretch, the fabric permits it, for movement preferable, but despite this is not see trough when you use the right size, if this fits too tight and stretch too much, you could see the color of your bra if it is different color, just buy a size up for flattering fit or I you have "nothing to hide, buy your normal size. and if you are busty, one size up (more than D I mean). This blouse fit respectfully for my kind of body and age, I look modern and sexy also lol. I hope it helps
