cery pretty but runs small

I was really excited for this particular item but I am disappointed. The hot pink color is exactly like the picture. However, the issue I had is with the pants. they were too small. I specifically sized up because of no stretch but it still was not enough. I’m not even sure if getting a 1x would fit it still might be too tight. For reference I am a thick girl my hips are 44 inches so I would say to anyone more curvy go up two sizes. The shirt is going to be big but at least the pants will fit you. It sucks because now I’m in a position where I can’t return it and I can’t wear the pants.
