There is something comfortably familiar about this dress. It is very forgiving and looks great worn professionally or casually. I threw on a casual jean jacket over it to go out with a couple of friends after work and it transitioned perfectly from the office to cocktail time.

This dress was super easy to wear, didn't wrinkle, fell nicely, and could be dressed up and down. Was true to size and enjoyed the "poof" at the wrist for some added interest. 

I felt great in this winter-to-spring transition dress when I rented it in March. It’s completely effortless and needs no extra styling. TTS. It didn’t feel frumpy on me, but it definitely leans a bit matronly.

Easy to wear transitional dress I wore to work and a family gathering. Bell sleeves with a nice length. Everything was comfy and fit true to size from Madewell

Fits nicely! It's stretchy and a belt helps to further define the waist. 

Easy to put on and looked very flattering!

I went back and forth on if I should keep this. It worked for work, dates, girls night, everything! Wore with sneakers, wore with heels. So versatile and comfortable! No zip, just a button at the back of the neck and has pockets!

I rented this for a vacation in the Netherlands in April, which is fairly rainy and not too warm. I wore this with tights underneath and felt perfectly comfortable but still cute. I don’t mind the length of the skirt and the dress itself was very comfortable for a full day of sights 

So comfortable, flattering, great lightweight fabric…loved it.  

Easy stretchy fit. Was a little constricting at the neckline kinda dug in but otherwise good. Very flowy and lot of material for petites but still cute!

This dress is really pretty on top. I love the sleeves and fit around the bust and waist, but the length wasn't long enough for me and the pockets puffed out and made me feel really "hippy" if I didn't readjust them back

Loved this adorable dress! A little bit Little House on the Prairie but fun and the pattern and colors are easy to match with. The smocked is also very comfortable. 

Pockets!!! Love all the dresses with pockets!!! This one was comfortable and great for a day at school. 

Super comfortable. The fabric is lighter and more flowy than it looks online. Still, too prairie for me as well, though I know it has been a trend. It made me feel old.

This is a pretty basic dress, but flattering and brand new. And it has pockets! My one criticism is there is quite a bit of material in the skirt, so it adds a bit of bulk if you are already large in the hips like I am. But it was a solid work dress.

Very flattering fit around chest and not balloon-y around waist! Got lots of compliments at work

this was an easy to wear throw on dress. Wore with high top sneakers and got so many compliments! Pockets always win me over!

Very versatile. Can be dressed up or down. Very comfortable and fit perfectly. Loved it!

Sure, it's a prairie dress, but the color and pattern make it one of my favorite versions of a prairie dress. Does not get staticky if you wear with tights 

I got tons of compliments on this. The smocking goes from the shoulders to the bottom of your rib case so it's very flattering. I would buy but the brown feels pretty fall/ winter

A little House on the Prairie but really nice length wise and very cute 

The dress is incredibly comfortable, wore it multiple times - to brunch and work

Loved, basic, pretty to dress up or down. I got XL bc that was what was available but would have liked L or M

I LOVED this dress! It is so flattering around the waist and extremely comfortable as well. 

This fit well and was great for work or a casual night out.

I wore this dress twice- once to a professional event and then to a retirement party, both times with knee high boots. It was really comfortable and got lots of compliments.

I loved this dress! I wore it to work multiple times and once with a denim jacket over it. It is super stretchy and flattering. It hit me a few inches above the ankle. 

I love this dress. It is thin, but flattering and comfortable. I wear with boots for work. 

This is a great full length dress for petites 

Loved it so much I bought it. Really soft fabric so it’s super comfortable but also cute.

Great fall dress- comparable to Doen, etc.

This dress was perfect for Thanksgiving, forgiving stretchy top but still looks put together. And it has pockets! Could definitely be flexible with sizing.
