What customers are saying:
Customers really appreciate the dress’s elegant, feminine, and versatile style—it works great for summer outings and beach days. Many customers pointed out that the fabric is very thin and see-through due to the lack of lining, and they suggested keeping this in mind when choosing undergarments or a slip. Several customers mentioned that it tends to run large, recommending ordering a size down for a better fit. Overall, while the dress is flattering and comfortable, a few tips about its delicate material and sizing can help ensure you’re happy with your purchase.

Terrible quality and poor fit
August 6, 2021I understood that this would be a sheer fabric but the quality of the fabric, cut, and sewing is terrible. It feels like it could rip very easily at a seam and some of the seams are already pulling open. The sleeves are also extremely long and the bodice is cut super far inward so you can’t really wear a bra or even a swimsuit without looking silly. Really disappointed in my last few purchases from jcrew and going to take my business elsewhere.

Size down!
July 30, 2021At Jcrew I’m always size 8/Medium. I’m 5’5”, 136lb., 36C, 28”. However, I got this dress in size Small and it’s still a bit loose on me. Armhole is really big and the cut is deep on front/top. I’ve sewn on a hook-and-eye about half an inch above the top button in the front. The material is a beautiful 100% Indian cotton, so light, airy and bit see through. There’s no lining. For a garden wedding in August (dress code “dressy casual”), I’m going to wear it with a beige slip dress underneath with a gladiator sandals, and after that, I plan to wear it as a swim coverup with flip flops. If you can get the right size, this is a beautiful dress!

easy, flattering dress!
July 23, 2021got a lot of compliments on this dress. can easily dress up or down. a bit sheer and low cut (meant to be a beach cover up I think) but i wore it with a black slip underneath and it worked great!

Pretty dress. Strange cut.
July 17, 2021It fits, however the straps are very long and the arm pits are cut really low and deep to where my boobs could show out the sides. The fabric is lovely and flowy and the length is good. I don’t feel like it’s too sheer to wear as a regular dress instead of a coverup. I may try to take in some of the awkward areas. I’m 5’7”, 135#, 32D and typically wear a J Crew 6 in swim and 4 in dresses. I bought an XS in this dress.

Love but big
July 9, 2021Love the style, definitely thin like others mentioned but no problem with a slip. Just wish I would have gotten a size smaller. I usually wear a sz 2-4 so I ordered XS and it’s still quite bit. Can’t return so will make it work but wish I would’ve gotten the XXS
