    Big Bust Friendly!

    I am obsessed with this dress. I am a 38JJ (ugh) and I fluctuate anywhere from a L to XXXL. I ordered an XL here, because I recently got a XXL top and it was too big on me. The XL fits like a dream with even some extra room up top. The shirring on the back panel I'm sure helps a ton. I'm quite frank...ly SHOCKED and THRILLED and might even be CRYING. The only thing to note is that if you have a larger bust, you might not get as dramatic of a waist drop as the models, but we take what we can get. It's stoonin' I got the gingham and it feels to me like a linen blend? So the texture is to be expected. Not the hugest sensory nightmare of my life and will soften with time.

    cute dress, but poorly made

    this is a super cute dress, comfy and light and practical for summer. however, both of the dresses I bought -- the blue stripe and the black -- started to come apart after being worn only once. the straps at the back are starting to detach and the fabric there is fraying. really disappointing that I... have to mend brand-new dresses!

    This dress looks and fits exactly how I thought it would. I look forward to wearing it soon. I am a fan of Gap clothing and am disappointed this might have to be my last purchase due to their support of facism.

    Colors are different fabrics

    By Nadine W

    The blue stripe and gingham dresses feel like a linen blend but the black version is a thin, poly-feel fabric. Reminds me of a windbreaker. The straps move better on the black (because of the thinner fabric) and get jammed on the thicker linen-blend fabric. I also found the black fit oddly in the chest

    fun cute dress

    I think it runs a tad small - usually an XXS and it fits but it's tight whereas on the model it's a bit baggy.

    I love this dress! It fits perfectly. I got the medium which I would say is my true size. I think you should order your true size. The fabric is light and breezy. A little on the cheap side feeling wise. The straps are adjustable. I'm 5'5 and it drapes right at my ankles which is flattering. The top might be a little loose but If I wear the a slightly padded bra it fills it out a bit. $90 is too high of a price, I got on sale for $34,95 which I think is more appropriate.

    Really cute, fits well, loved how it looked. But the strap broke the first time I wore it :( and it wasn't too tight or anything. really disappointed. And it's outside the return window now so that's a bummer.

    Very comfortable, super lightweight but not sheer. Usually a S, but I got XS and it fit perfectly! love that it has pockets. The straps are a little thin but feel secure, and I like that they are adjustable.
