Caslon shift dress

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this dress! I'm picky, too, because I have a "weird" shape. lol. I only wear shift dresses. I ordered the navy color. I'm 5"4" & this is the prefect length (just above the knees). It is comfortable & stylish, true-to-size. I love that it's a v-neck of sorts (can't stand anything too high on my neck). The ONLY semi-complaint that I have is that if you are a little broad in the shoulders, this gets snug when lifting your arms.

Nice fabric but sizing is off

I ordered the navy version of this dress in a medium, my usual size. It was very big and the pockets stuck out in an unflattering way. I reordered in the small size, but it was too big as well. The fabric and color were nice but it just didn’t work for me.

Great summer dress

Nice cotton with a good drape. Pockets and a bit of whimsy in the trim. Navy is a slimming color. Fits to my knees at 5 foot.

Very nice—a keeper

The only thing i don’t like is the pockets- they stick out a bit and make my thighs look big 🙂. Am hoping i can take in a little or iron it flatter. The pink strip is really pretty.

love fabric and dress

Natural breathable fabric for summer. Love that it has sleeve & sleeve isn’t tight. Will be great for hot days & beach to other activities. Fit is right on (bit long for me but I am very short). I would order Xsmall but need flex across shoulders for active summer days so went with small.

Wanted to love

I wanted to love this dress but the green color is even brighter in person. I would absolutely buy it in a more muted teal, ice blue, or something less vibrant. I’m petite (5’3) and the length was just above knee. Fit TTS/roomy. I could size down for the dress but think it would be too tight in the shoulders/arms.
