Just bought this impulsively this morning at the Icon party. It was not on my radar until I saw it in store and tried it on. Perfect flattering fit, lightweight. Covers the dreaded underarm bra fat. Just not sure what bra to wear with it but it will be worth the hassle. I purchased both colors, it’s that good. I’m 5’7 and good length for me.

nope
Poorly placed pockets, cheap fabric, tight in the bust- all around yuck. Disappointing.

It’s an ok dress for the sale price
I got this in both colors. The black one is a bit looser in the torso than the green. The overall quality seems more in line with Z by Zella that is sold at the rack vs regular Zella. Pockets are big and lay funny. For the anniversary sale price it’s fine, but I wouldn’t pay full price.

Where do I wear this?
I actually really liked this dress, it fits as expected and was cute on. BUT...where do I wear it? The material is very much an exercise dress...but you cannot exercise in this...and you can't wear a bra with it cuz of the open back...so I'm returning because I'm just confused.

unexpected love!
I saw this dress in store and decided to try it on as it felt really lightweight and breezy, perfect for the summer. I tried on a size small and it did fit but was too snug in the chest, it left zero room for movement (my underbust is 30 inches and widest part of bust is 35.5 inches or so for reference). I bought a medium instead and it is still fitted but allows a bit of room which is perfect!

Pockets not great
Usually pockets in a dress are great! I felt here, it added a ton of bulk, in an otherwise lightweight dress.

excellent everyday dress
This dress is perfect for errands, travel, any casual event etc. I purchased in both colors and am currently stuck between which size to keep - xs or s. I am 5’5” 130s 32DD.

Easy and Comfy
Bought this on Anniversary- love how easy this dress is. Gone from camp drop off, gym to baseball game & post pool errands. Wear with a cute sports bra or racer back body suit ( yes, yes you can see the bra/cami/bodysuit/swimsuit from the side. Oh well). These aren’t sturdy pockets so don’t try keys in here.

Super cute
I ordered this in both colors cause it looked so cute in the pic but didn’t have high hopes for it to fit like on the model. But it’s actually incredibly cute, covers the underarm area like another reviewer mentioned, flowy in the right places so very slimming. This will be perfect for hot weather. I was worried about the pockets based on other reviews but I have no issues with them, they lay flat and don’t add bulk. Really happy and keeping both colors! I typically take a medium/large and the medium fit well.

Great dress
It’s a great dress. Very comfy and flattering. Only for me natural waist doesn’t fall in right spot for me. I’m over 5’10 and it’s great for traveling so keeping it

versatile and lightweight
I love everything about this dress. It is lightweight and flowy. Will be perfect for fall to pair with jackets and cardigans. True to size, size 6/8 and I got a medium.

Not What I Expected, but I Still Like It
I ordered this dress thinking it was more of a stretchy cotton material - and it definitely isn't (I should've checked material before I purchased, I know). It's definitely not stretchy, but it's very lightweight. I ordered a size down thinking it'd fit better, but had to exchange for a size up. I'm 5'3" and the length is great. The back hits just above my ankles. So I think this dress could work for almost any height. As far as a bra - I wear a black racerback sports bra (or regular one) and yes, you can see it a little in the back, but that doesn't bother me since the dress is black anyway. If that bothers you, you can do a strapless one, I guess, but you may still be able to see the back of it, too. I think it still looks cute, and I can wear it to work with a jean jacket for coverage (I work in a school). Overall I'm keeping it for these hot summer days!
