Comfortable and Put Together

I bought this in-store and love it! It's the second dress I've purchased from this brand, and I love that it features adjustable elastic at the waist. As someone with an hourglass figure, I love that I can adjust it to accentuate my waist a bit more. I love how breathable the fabric is, especially given the torturous weather we've been experiencing lately. I was even able to style it in a way that gave off just enough business casual vibes, making me feel comfortable wearing it during a meeting over coffee. It is very versatile, comfortable, and a great addition to anyone's closet. I do think it runs just a tad bit large, but not by an extreme extent. My other dress from this brand is also meant to be a bit oversized. The adjustable elastic at the waist helps with that, and I would still recommend you buy this dress in your typical size.

really cheap and pills fast

I basically use these for doing chores around the house now. They can’t handle more than a few washes. Not impressed

Nothing special here - move on.

This dress is odd. High neckline and very boxy cut. Even with the draw string waist it still looked boxy.

Perfect travel dress

Great travel dress. Lightweight, no wrinkles, dries quickly. Got the green color. Very nice. I like the cinching waist - gives it some shape
