Promising review: "Omg!!! I did not expect this dress to be as perfect as it is (nothing is ever the same in a post or on the rack, am I right?). The material is so interesting, it’s thick but thin. I think it’ll keep me warm while still having room to breathe. The belt that you tie, HOLY CRAP, makes me look incredible! I want to look and feel fabulous all at once and this dress DOES THAT AND MORE!! I ordered the dark green one to go with some super cute shoes my mom got me for Christmas and I cannot wait to go out somewhere in it!

~ Isn't it just so pretty to think all along there was some invisible string tying you to this dress? ~

Promising review: "I don't normally write reviews for clothes off of Amazon, but good lordy, I am so in love with this dress, I just HAVE to!! I am 5'5" and weigh approximately 150 pounds. I ordered a medium in one of the maxi-length dresses. I am IN LOVE and am wishing it was warmer weather so I could wear it out and about! First, it is a true wrap dress in that you feed one side through the other, therefore you can adjust how tight or loose it is. Modest? Show some cleavage? Up to you! 😍 Second, it is the PERFECT length for me. In all, I freaking love this dress! And was not prompted in any way to provide a review but felt so compelled when I tried it on! If you are on the fence like I have been for over a year, GET IT!" —Jess

Promising review: "This might be THE perfect dress! I immediately loved this dress. So many pros, can't think of a con! PROS: It's easy to throw on like a t-shirt! It's stretchy with no zipper. I was not wrinkled on arrival; seems like the fabric won't wrinkle so no ironing is needed. It just feels so good! Like I would want to wear it all the time. This would be a complete no-brainer for traveling to a wedding or something since it doesn't wrinkle and there is no fuss about it. It's so cozy that I can see ordering another in a more subdued and darker color and pairing it with a cropped jacket and scarf and wear to work. It really does feel like you are wearing your lounge-around-the-house clothes. CONS: None?!" — architecture student

Promising review: "This dress is AMAZING. The fabric is nice and thick but not too warm. I got so many compliments on it. I was able to put my arms up without feeling the dress pull. It was long enough in the back that I didn’t worry about showing booty if I knelt down. Even with the wind outside it stayed down, and I could spin while dancing and not show undies. I will more than likely buy this in several colors!" —Shannon G

Promising review: "I'm so thrilled with this dress. The design is clearly so thoughtful – it's everything I wanted in a t-shirt dress. It feels really high-quality and I was so pleased to see it arrive in sustainable packaging. This is a dress that will definitely look good with a sneaker, a dressy sandal, or anything in between. The length is so perfect, it's almost too good to be true, and I think it's because the length is actually adjusted appropriately according to the size. I can bend over without having a faux pas, but it's short enough that it still feels fun and flirty. I can't wait to wear this over and over again." —Lauren
