Monette Linen Maxi Dress

i was very excited about this dress because the print and design look so beautiful online and i hoped to wear it for a proposal. it turned out that it took 30 minutes to get all the wrinkles out with a steamer. the straps dig into your skin because they don’t have any elastic. and the strap broke. i am so sad and disappointed by this dress. i am trying to return it.

I would go with the smaller size if you are in between, but my problem with this are the straps. I am a tall woman with a long torso and they were definitely on the too long side for me. It goes down to almost exposing my chest. Would be much better if they were adjustable, and for the price, it’s not worth paying extra to have that done for me. The print is lovely and it’s a thick linen. The body of the dress is very flattering.

I was looking forward a dress for my vacation. I bought this dress in my normal size and found true to size on me. I am 5’2”, 32E bra size, 24 jeans size if that helps anyone. The dress I bought was from reformation and has adjustable straps that can be adjusted at the back which helped to place the bodice where it looked the best on me. Maybe they just added that feature? Bought March 2025.
