Customers praise this dress for exceptional comfort and soft, durable fabric that feels substantial and holds up well over time. Many describe it as a go-to piece for everyday wear and recovery use. However, reviewers note significant sizing inconsistencies, with the dress running large and stretching after washing, requiring multiple size attempts. The heavy cotton fabric polarizes opinion—some love its structure for cooler weather, while others find it too warm for summer. Despite these concerns, most customers who found the right fit express strong satisfaction and repurchase in multiple colors.
Great dress! I purchased this dress just to wear around the house. I wear it every where now. It is so comfortable and it has pockets!! The material weight is heavier than most but

A summer must have
Fit: True to size
I much prefer dresses in the hot summer. Please offer many more casual summer styles, some a lighter weight than this one. I did buy 3 of this one and found it very comfortable.

Only thing I don’t like is the weight of the fabric. Way too heavy for me! This type of dress is usually much lighter in weight.

This dress was shapeless and unflattering. I like the color and the fabric. I think it will make a good bathing suit coverup (which I can use).

I love this piece. I was first surprised with its weight, having expected a light jersey knit; it's quite heavy. Great fabric, which is my fave part -- the fabric. It is soooooo

Comfortable dress
Fit: True to size
Very comfortable dress. Since it is all cotton it is an excellent choice in the hot summer. I love that it has pockets! It washes very well and needed no ironing. I bought 4!,

I like this dress alot. The sleeves do roll after washing so I need to iron them. Dress runs a bit big. I like it overall

Nice dress
Fit: True to size
This dress is very comfortable, but the knit is a bit too heavy for wearing in the Florida heat and humidity where I live.

SO,so!

I thought slub knits were much lighter? Pockets should be out of thinner material than dress!
Won't be wearing it anywhere but around the house.
