I’m a teacher and can see reaching for this dress often. Super comfortable. I’m hourglass shaped with a larger chest and curvy backside—which can sometimes be tricky, but this cinched waist concept allows me to make it fit just right. I could see that a straight shape may not like this one, but I think it’s fabulous. It has zip pockets too— total bonus! I bought it in two out of the three colors— would have bought the third if they had my size in stock.

Plastic Bag Anyone?
It's not a knit fabric and swishes like plastic, like wearing a plastic bag. This dress is much cuter in the picture than on. The neckline is higher than it looks in the photo. Just had to go back.

awful
I love Zella and had hopes for this dress. I’m 5’7” , 140 lbs and the XS fit me like a sack! Pros: zipper pockets, sleeves, cinch adjustable waist, good length Cons: very large, no shape, material clings to legs I really want to find a cute summer dress that checks all of the “pros” of this dress but is comfortable and looks cute! Zella, you can and must do better!!

Great Quality, Runs BIG
I really liked the style and mauve color of this dress. However, as others have stated, it runs VERY big. I'm 5'2", 132 and was swimming in the XS, even with the side elastics pulled in all the way. Plus it's quite long, going just past my knees.

LOVE THIS DRESS!
I‘m 5.7, 205 and have a big chest. I’m so happy this fits me! I bought size XL after reading the reviews. It’s so different, very flattering, lightweight and I love the cinching. Thank you, Zella!

Wanted to love this dress but it looked like a big shapeless bag. Sadly had to return.

This dress is very lightweight and comfortable. You can dress it up or down and the cinch sides make it easy to adjust for your body type. Love it!!
