I've gotten things that are true-to-size, I've gotten things that ran big, etc. It just depends on the piece. I can't speak from experience with that dress because I don't own it, but if you check out the reviews on the page, some people give very helpful tips. Just find someone on there that has a similar body type as you. A lot of people tell you their height/weight and what size they purchased (for example, "I'm 5'2'' and 115 lbs - got a medium, and it fits well."), so it's a good way to decide which size to get. Oh and because I'm awesome, here's a 20% off code: SHOPNOW08E. And if you spend over $50 you get free shipping.

I usually wear a size M (size 6, sometimes 4 in number sizes) across the board and that's what size i get in AA. Some items, like the slim slacks and slim skirts (both made of non stretchy denim/twill type fabric), are really inconsistent with sizing and the sizing will even vary between colors. My favorites are the tri-blend v-necks and racerbacks, they are just so soft and comfy. Oh, and if the item is unisex definitely size down at least one size.
