Nice fabric tight chest beautiful color

I loved this dress enough to consider buying it. It is cut low in the front although it does tie at the top. I chose to put a cami under it to avoid any self conscious moments. There is no stretch to the fabric so it's tight around the rib and chest. If you have a bigger bust you will probably want to size up. It skims the hips and falls nicely and I even enjoyed the length. I wore with cream colored boots.

Avocado Dress for the win!

I loved this dress for a daytime date with my husband...he loved it, too. He was the only other person to actually notice the avocado print.

Perfect date night dress

The fabric was pretty light, the black line has no stretch, but was very flattering and comfortable. The color was also very elegant and neutral.

Unique patterned dress! Wore it to a party and also to work. Very versatile and super comfortable

I don't prefer really low necklines so wore a tank bra which did the trick

Great dress, needed a bralette for keyhole

I finally rented the avocado dress. I wore a green lace bralette underneath, because that opening is just way too revealing. Overall I loved this dress and would rent it again.

Beautiful form-fitting green dress

I wore this dress several times and always received compliments. I didn't even notice the design had avocados in it until I read the reviews. I just thought it was an interesting, vibrant green pattern. Not one person mentioned anything about avocados to me. The dress was form-fitting in all the right spots, easy to wear, and an all-around wonderful maxi dress.

Perfect Day Wedding

It is such a simple dress but was lovely on. I chose this dress for the colors because my cousin's colors were green, cream, gold, and black. For the ceremonies, she had her family where the traditional Chinese dresses and this dress had a semi-mandarin collar so I felt like I fit in without barging - you know? It is flowy but not as forgiving when eating but still so comfortable. I think this was a medium. My brother and I complimented each other which was nice. And yes, it does look like avocados...and they make things better so - rent this dress!

Love love love

I wore this for Christmas and also to work. I just added a black tank underneath to keep it office appropriate. I didn’t realize till after someone at work pointed out that it looks like an avocado print but I didn’t car it’s so flattering

Pretty & comfortable with interesting print

I really loved this dress, although I was worried I had ordered the wrong size. I am wearing an XS, although had intended to order the S. I did fit into the XS although it was a close call zipping it up around my ribcage. But once I got it zipped was fine, with enough room for my hips so not too tight there. I’m reasonably curvy and happily found it more flattering than expected.

Love rixo

Love this brand and this dress did not disappoint. Wore to work but can definitely be worn to cocktail party etc. it’s a bit low cut if you are more busty but the tie at the neck helps that.

Anniversary dinner

I wore this to our anniversary dinner! I loved the color and print of the dress. The dress fit right, but it does do a weird thing to where you need to perfect undergarments for the dress. The keyhole in the chest makes it hard to find the appropriate undergarments but I made it work with a few safety pins 😅 other than that I did love this dress! 👗

The velvet detail made it great for a casual fall wedding. It’s more casual than dressy, but you could dress it up with some heels.

Cute but too fall like for a summer wedding

I liked this but didn’t love it. Not sure why but probably because the fabric was cut on the bias made it drape awkwardly. It was a little too light weight and clingy for me. A less curvy shape might look better.

Couldn’t decide if the avocado pattern was cute or ugly. Judging by the comments I got , I think the verdict was ugly LOL. Fit was good.

Tons of compliments!

Super flattering fit and perfect for work, except that the elastic on the sleeves was pretty much dead, so they didn't fit well there, and not sure it's something that could be repaired. But everyone loved the print, and I got a ton of compliments! (But to me, they looked like avocados, lol.)

Beautiful print and great cut

I wore this to a funeral. It has some black velvet and the tie at front allows you to make it more modest. I did wear a tank underneath because of the low front. This dress hangs beautifully. It was very comfortable.

Very comfortable and good fit. Nice keyhole opening in the front showed just enough cleavage to make it not feel matronly. I might try sizing down next time to see if it is form-fitting in a good way.
