Pros 👍
“Easy to care for … I love this dress!” . “The pockets are great, and it’s very slimming! I sometimes tie a knot in the bottom. I always get tons of compliments when I wear it!”
“This maxi dress checks all of the boxes,” . “It is very figure-flattering, has pockets, not see-through, and it comes down to my feet (I’m 5’8″). This maxi fits all of my curves and you can wear it to church, work, date night and brunch. I ordered the army green and black. I’ve paired this with a lightweight denim jacket for a graduation ceremony and some flat-heeled strappy sandals.”
“I actually intended to wear this dress as a house dress or nightgown, but the print was so fun I wear it to church and have worn it on a cruise to dinner,” . “It’s lightweight and comfortable and I regularly get compliments on it when worn. I will say it doesn’t give any figure-flattering shape to a body, but I don’t think that’s the intent of the design. It totally could be worn to bed if you wanted to, it’s that comfy.”
Cons 👎
Some shoppers say the fabric could be thicker. “I loved it so much that I’ve ordered three more,” . “It is an easy dress to throw on for any occasion … It does not cling, but is soft and flowy … The only reason I gave it four stars is because it is a little on the thin side. I don’t find it see-through, though. It is my new ‘go to’ dress.”
“I was surprised how nicely this felt and fit,” wrote another . “I do wish I could find one that isn’t a V-neck, but I’m impressed how nice this dress is. I can dress it up with wedges and jewelry or just wear flip-flops.”
