Closet Staple Shirtdress
November 8, 2021This dress is just beautiful! I love the puff sleeves and the cuffs at the wrists. The only thing to note is that it runs extremely large. I usually wear a small in most brands, usually an XS in J.Crew, and I sized down to an XXS in this dress and it still has a relaxed fit with the dropped shoulders - don't be afraid to size down 1-2 sizes. I'm 110lbs, 5'7", and it falls a couple inches above my knees, so it's perfect for the office - I was worried sizing down would affect the length but it's still an appropriate length. If you're tall or prefer a longer length, the dress does have a generous hem that could probably be let out at least 3". Another thing to note is that in the black color, the buttons look white on the website, but they're a deep pearl gray in person, which I personally prefer.

Effortlessly cool looking dress!!
October 21, 2021This dress is even better in person. Slightly darker shade than on computer screen which I prefer. Material is so crisp and light weight. You can literally wear it throughout the year. Layering with sweater vest will be super cute for fall! About the sizing, I took the previous reviewer and went with one size smaller than my usual. Sooo glad I listened. Still has enough room and cute. Not tight at all. My only complaint is why?why?….. The buttons are bigger than it supposed to be? It’s hard to unbutton… a bit annoying. Never had this kinda problem from Jcrew or this price range dresses. Please review the size of button and revise them to a bit smaller or thinner. Other than that, the dress is awesome!

I’m torn.
October 19, 2021I truly love this dress. The fabric is wonderful, the pouf sleeve adorable and the neckline flattering. BUT, it’s a tad too short. Another 1.5 inches woulda been a much more flattering fit. Also, rather than the “boxy” fit, it needed a more hourglass cut to be truly flattering. But I would still recommend it (at the sale price) because you can have your tailor tweak it.

Very chic and versatile.
October 14, 2021It does run a tad big, but this dress is tailored just enough, with the great puff sleeves and hem length, etc. to keep from looking like a bag on my short frame. As a result, I can wear it almost any season in this humid southern climate, and accessorize with scarves, jewelry, shoes, etc. Easy and useful as a daytime black dress — throw in the wash, a quick iron, and out you go again.
