Promising review: "I bought this dress and had to wear it right away! The material is incredibly soft, not scratchy at all. It was not bulky or too snug but highlighted my natural curves. It was comfortable throughout the day, I did not need to readjust it often. I cannot recommend this dress enough!!" —Jennifer
Price: $34.99 (available in sizes X–4X, and three colors)
Promising review: "Adorable! Spotted this dress as I was walking through the store. It's so cute. The fit and length is very classy. I had so many compliments when I wore it to work. My husband even complimented it, he rarely says things about my clothing. I bought in black but I love it so much I’m getting the green as well!" —Tlong2020

Promising review: "I love this dress. It’s a breezy, effortless dress to throw on in spring and summer with a few accessories. I do think it runs a little big, but loose styles like this work well for my shape. It’s definitely a prairie style dress, so you really need to like that style to enjoy this dress. But I do think the white and black colorways are a little more elevated. Still, I couldn’t resist the blue-green option. Looks great with the sleeves pushed up a little." —scriblette
Price: $29.99 (available in sizes XS–4X, and six colors)
Promising review: "So cute and a great length. Sometimes I have trouble finding dresses I can wear to work on more casual days. Easy to dress up a little, or just wear with sneakers. Thinking about getting the rest of the colors. Does run a little large." —JBL
Price: $15 (available in sizes XS–4X, and eight colors/styles)
Promising review: "This is the best Target dress I have ever bought. Style is comfortable and quality is comparable to small boutique dresses I have bought. Love the rounded square neckline. Bought one in every color. Please make more of this style!" —CCM
Price: $35 (available in sizes X–4X, and four colors/styles)
Promising review: "I 100% recommend! It’s so comfortable, true to size, cute, stylish! It’s good quality and beautiful. I was searching for a last minute dress for my friend's birthday and couldn’t find anything. I went to Target and this is the first thing I saw, tried it on and OMG! This dress saved me!! I definitely recommend so go get this right now!" —farah

Promising review: "OMG I’m in love!! This dress fits me like a glove! It’s such a good little black dress, I feel incredibly confident and happy in it. The best part is the shape of it. It goes in at the waist to give you that cinched look. The fabric is just cotton so nothing fancy but very comfortable." —Jessica
Price: $12 (available in sizes XS–4X, and eight colors/styles)
Promising review: "I LOVE this dress. With black, no bra needed and the back and slit combo is sexy, but casual! I own the tan colored one and you can see the curves of your body more, but it’s so cute to put a sweater on top. Debating on if I should get it in red and teal too lol." —Kim
Price: $15 (available in sizes XS–XXL, and three colors)
Promising review: "If you're looking for a cute, flowy, comfy, SOFT, cottony dress with an FP vibe and adjustable straps and pockets, this is IT. I sized UP and love the way it looks. Wish it were just a tad shorter, but since it's cotton it will likely shrink a couple of inches in the dryer. I'm back to order more colors. IMHO this dress is a STEAL. The body of it is double layered fabric (so no bra if you can get away with it) while the ruffle at bottom is single layer. I give it 5 stars." —Holly
Price: $14 (originally $20, available in sizes XS–4X, and seven colors)
Promising review: "This dress is absolutely gorgeous. Hangs very nicely. Easy to dress up or down. The shimmer is in the material, not a glitter that transfers. Just don’t put it in the dryer and only wash on delicate." —Bellemicha
Price: $21.25 (originally $25, available in sizes XS–XL, and two colors)
Promising review: "Last year they had some that were similar, but this fabric is so nice and soft and fits better. Flowy and length is great. Must buy for the spring and summer. Even winter would be cute with boots." —best teeny stroller
Price: $32 (available in sizes XS–4X, and four colors)
Promising review: "Fits like a glove. I’m always between a medium or large in dresses, depending on the chest fit. The medium fit great!" —Halloween Everything
