Small bust

Beautiful dress, but my usual size (medium tall) was too small in the bust; I couldn't zip it with a bra. And with no bra, there wasn't enough support. I returned it and tried a large tall, but then it was too large and frumpy. Such a bummer!

This was the first thing I have purchased in my regular size from Gap/ON that was so badly sized it felt like 2 sizes too small. There is zero stretch at all for the waist or bust. I wear a 14-16 in most clothes, ordered XL and ended up giving it to my MIL who wears a 10-12 and she said it was very ...

I like how the figure-hugging style fits the body, and the color is lovely.

Love this dress! The gathering sits just above my hip bone. Much more flattering than at my waist. The material has some weight, but it is not heavy. I always love Gap's linen blend, it is just right.

This dress is stunning and well made but the sizing is bizarre. I ordered my usual size (large) and it was so tight I could hardly zip it. Returned it for an XL and it's gigantic. super disappointing

This was the first thing I have purchased in my regular size from Gap/ON that was so badly sized it felt like 2 sizes too small. There is zero stretch at all for the waist or bust. I wear a 14-16 in most clothes, ordered XL and ended up giving it to my MIL who wears a 10-12 and she said it was very snug. My MIL is 4'11" or 5' and it skimmed the floor. The color is true to the photos, and the material is a little heavy for summer to truly stay cool. The dress is beautiful overall, but sized badly. Also the straps are a little long and not adjustable, so they slide off of your shoulders.

Poor fit

Loved the concept but the product itself falls short. Bust is very small, as a B cup I barely fit in my regular size S. Tried a size M and petite M and it fit but sooooo much fabric hanging, waist was no longer fitted. At 5'7" usually runs are short but this dress is long and billowy, as if it fits maternity more than regular sizing. If you want to hide a tummy or have a smaller top frame, might be a good fit for you.

This dress is a really cute summer dress. Unfortunately I returned it because I am larger busted, and I didn't like how it looked on me. Overall, the fit, weight of the fabric, length would be perfect for someone who is not big busted.

Don't buy it unless you can try it on

I typically wear size 8 or 10 clothes. I bought size M for this dress online. The chest area as other reviewers said was very small. The construction is meant to be a tight bodice. L size would have been better but also could have been too big. Not sure why Gap didn't make it in numerical sizes because the dress will fit only a small number of people.

I rarely can find dresses to fit my petite build but this is the perfect fit and length. I also like that this one has a lining, plus the red is a little more muted.

Flattering style, well made and versatile-great for casual or can be dressed up for more formal summer events.
