Women's Summer Maxi Dress Casual Loose V Neck Short Sleeve Side Split Long Dresses with Functional Pockets

I love these Maxi-dresses SO much! I ordered additional ones in different prints as they are SO DANG comfy! GREAT things: - wonderful stretch without being sheer - soft fabric (rayon spandex mix) - I'm 5'6" and these are JUST long enough without being too long, I can wear flip flops or even a 2-3 inch wedge and it works with these dresses - sexy but not trashy 'side slits' are a perfect height to be 'breezy' and 'sexy' AND still CLASSY! I wear the printed styles to work! - NO SEAM at back! I've gotten some others on Amazon & they tend to have a SEAM (usually across the back horizontally) - for a curvy gal this seam is AWFUL and NOT flattering ***the GRECERELLE has been the only Rayon-Spandex mix I've tried that does NOT have that awful seam** ALSO - the fabric print is not 'shiny' or overly thick, it's a lighter weight soft stretchy-rayon blend. What you Need to know! - These run LARGE.....I'm 5'6" and curvy with bum/hips at 160lbs. I usually wear a Med or Large....in these dresses I wear a MED for work-appropriate (a little room, not tight but not overly large, fits well!). BUT, I got a Small AND an XS and I can wear both of these! The XS or Small is great on me for a beachy-date-night (tight like a body-con dress) but it's still soft, comfy & not see thru and definitley more on the sexy-side than the roomier 'medium' (*note, I only purchased printed versions, no solids). - This material will wear and possibly pill over time (I've worn mine probably 4-5 times and no pilling YET, but I think it will after 4-5 more uses.....I use a shaver after each use to keep it fresh & that helps the longevity, but it will reach it's 'max-use' after prolly 10-12 wears) - the Big Leaf Pink is may fav. for work, classy & flowy but comfy (I bought 2)! For date nights, I like the Cashew Cyan Blue (in the Small or XS). For day-casual I like the Cashew Blue-Green. I didn't like the Multicolor Orage (tie dye) very much & returned it.

I am 5'0" and 120 pounds, and got the XS in grey, S in army green (no XS available at the time of ordering). Based on previous reviews (I find these reviews CRUCIAL to my shopping process and thank all of you for the input!) I figured the XS would fit properly but not be "body con" tight, nor baggy. I was right. I am short as can be and the hem touches the floor but doesn't drag. If I wear espadrilles or wedge sandals it will be just right. The slit in the sides comes to just above my knee and is a nice feature in warm weather, and I wear with bike shorts. like I do with most maxi dresses. The cutout in back was of concern to me but, as described, does not expose any of my various bra styles, like a V-neck t-shirt would in the front. The size S green one will be better suited to be worn with a belt for more of a boho look, and will be just as useful, styled slightly differently. The fabric feels like cotton jersey, so it is comfortable, isn't scratchy, slithery or prone to wrinkling, and is NOT see-through. That's a huge plus. I wear maxi dresses all summer and these will be staples of my wardrobe this year. I can dress them up with a belt and a shrug sweater and heels, or wear it like a beach coverup with flat sandals. Love it. EDIT: I forgot to mention the pockets. I know pockets for women's garments, especially dresses, seems like a trendy buzzword, but I find pockets to be a wonderful bonus. These pockets do not bulk-up the silhouette like some could, and are big enough to fit a phone, lipstick, keys. Adding all those things WOULD bulk up your silhouette, but it is still possible. So many women's clothing has pockets that are about 2" square, able to hold nothing, or they don't exist. I often like to carry a chapstick or something and leave my purse behind, and this dress is perfect - I don't have to tuck my items in my bra.... admit it, ladies, we all do this!

I know this is not actually a “nursing/breastfeeding” dress, but I’m always looking for tops and dresses that can be used by BF-ing mommas as a lot of nursing clothes are not all that stylish imo. Anyway, I originally ordered a small as I’m usually a size 6-8 and expected it to be a bit big. However, when I tried it on, it definitely did NOT fit like it does on the model. (It wasn’t too tight or clingy, I just wanted it a bit oversized for comfort and also for easier access for nursing my newborn.) So, I returned and sized up to a medium and returned the small. Now, it fits a bit looser which I like. I LOVE the pockets and how soft the material is. It’s pretty long so it goes almost to the floor on my 5’5” frame/140 lbs but I just tied a knot at the front and it’s perfect! I will say, I could probably wear a large if I wanted it to fit even more loose, but the medium is perfectly fine. Now as for the “Nursing Friendly”... I have a 2 week old newborn and I just pull the neck down and am able to feed fairly comfortably. Now this does expose the breast, so if you’re concerned about that, I just use a nursing cover when I’m out and about and then we just forget the cover when we’re at home. I hope this review is helpful for those looking for affordable nursing options! I’ll attach a couple of photos to give an idea of fit/nursing access.

Nice and comfy

I don’t like this dress at all, and I’m just using it as round-the-house dress. I wouldn’t wear it in public. The fabric isn’t soft, as I would expect in a T-shirt dress. There is no give to it, so it’s not very comfortable. The pocket placement is right at the hip/thigh level (depending on your height) and they stick out, making the area look bigger. Nobody needs their hips or thighs looking bigger. Also, the fit is not well proportioned. The top part of the dress is small and the bottom part is big. I would have returned the dress, but it was so inexpensive, it wasn’t worth the trouble. This is definitely a case of you get what you pay for. I don't know why it is highly reviewed or recommended. I was very disappointed.

Ugly & cheap don’t buy not worth it, gave dress away as it cost to much to return

This dress never ended up coming, ordered it back in May, it’s now the end of August.

The print was blurry, the fabric was weirdly slippery, almost satiny. I was looking for a casual loose look but this was just unflattering and shapeless.

Perfect pull on dress to go anywhere
