Amazon Essentials Women's Short-Sleeve Midi Button Front Tie Dress

I never write reviews, but I am 47 years old and this is the first non-vintage dress I have found that fits the way I want a dress to fit. Yes, I realize this style has been around forever. Me: 5'8" 133 lbs, broad shoulders, long torso, 34C, 37.5" high hip. The waistline (size Medium) falls at my natural waist. The pockets are in the right place. It is true knee length. Looks just as pictured on the model. I am thrilled to have found a tasteful, well-made everyday dress that doesn't make me look or feel like an awkward child. I also appreciate the model being a proportionately-sized healthy adult woman! Even when fit and slim, it can be so hard to tell how pieces are going to fit when modeled by elflings. Thank you, Amazon! PLEASE OFFER MORE COLORS AND FABRICS! (though the navy blue viscose is lovely and very comfy).

Fabric is comfortable, not too thin. Has a thicker linen feel, hangs nice but not flowy. It's rectangular and shapeless without a belt. I used a thin, solid colored belt instead of the included fabric one. Casual look, good for a baby shower or birthday party but not a wedding or evening event. Got lots of compliments. Sizing - 5'6" , 36DD, 30" waist. Large was a slightly loose fit and hit a little below the knee. Waist fell higher than natural waist, not quite empire but close. Arm holes and sleeves are comfortably sized.

All good things to say about this dress- the fit, the color/pattern, the length, the value. All are very good to excellent and for $10 I feel I got an amazing deal. The ONE drawback is it is 100% rayon, and tho conveniently is machine washable, you will have a horrendously wrinkled dress afterward. Because it's synthetic you have to iron on the lowest setting and it took me 2 hours to iron the whole thing & belt. Now, because it's a bit see through I wear a full body slip and can re-wear the dress 2 or 3 times before it needs washing so I am ok with the ironing. But if you're not a fan, don't buy this dress unless you take it to the cleaners for pressing.

1) fabric felt like (but isn't) drapey linen, heavier weight so it doesn't feel cheap or flimsy 2) not sheer 3) has buttons which would make it easier to nurse a baby (why I purchased it) 4) is just below the knee which means you can feel comfortable in it to not ride up sitting down or bending over, and won't blow around in wind 5( can accommodate large busts without pushing the style. I have size 32/34J. It actually made my bust look a lot smaller in it than in most outfits. But you could wear with small bust too bc fabric is flowing....it is just really forgiving of both I think. Cons 1) I wish there was a flap behind the buttons because when I sat down the dress wasn't even tight on me but my muffin top tummy (post several babies) and thighs spread and the slight pressure on the buttons gaped, basically you can see inside dress 2) it looked kind of like a nightshirt on me. I don't know if it was the navy color? My husband said it was like the color was trying to be dressy but the style of dress was very casual. 3) not sure why but my arms felt itchy after trying it on? Maybe something in the fabric that would need to be washed out of it Sadly I had to return. It was probably one of the most comfortable dresses I have ever tried on (which is prob why it looked like a nightdress). Someone slimmer than me might look awesome in it!

Reasons to love: real buttons but no gaping open (I’m a size L/XL, size 14, 38C, pear shaped), falls just at bottom of my knees at 5’9” which is great for my own comfort. V neckline isn’t too low and I like the little detail on each shoulder. What I’d change: sleeve length… a little shorter would look a little cuter to match the feminine styling. If you’re looking for modest, without matronly, this will probably work for you, though! The waist was cut higher than my natural waist at 5’9” which happens sometimes at just above average height. It didn’t cut across the bust line so I can work with it. The belt is the same fabric as the dress and a little short on length. I will use a wider belt with more structure that I already have to help the waist appear lower. I plan to get a lot of wear out of this dress and buy it in another color if I can catch it on another great offer. Purchased a size Large; color “Red Leaf”

Surprisingly flattering, simple, functional POCKETSES preciousss! - I like everything except for one (relatively minor) thing. On me, it gaps a LOT between the top two buttons. Simple solution - I don't need the buttons to be functional, so I'll stitch the placket shut. This is a nice length, and comfortable, ample room in the waist, versatile for many situations. I wish the waistline were about two inches lower and there was a bit more room for a bust, but for the price (I bought this as a lightning deal), this was a steal. 5'3", 150, 40D, I bought Large.

This dress is my staple. I don’t know why amazon would stop making a dress with such fantastic reviews. If anything, I thought they would have made more colors available! The cut and the fit are so flattering. It is easy to throw on in any season, to dress up with nice shoes or dress down with sneakers. If I had to choose one dress to live in, this would be it!!! I so SO hope that this dress comes back in stock, though I have been checking every few months for over a year and I’m sad to see it is still unavailable.

Amazon Essentials Women's Short-Sleeve Midi Button Front Tie Dress, Black/White, Abstract Floral, X-Large ($9.80) I am 5’4, 200lbs and ordered XL. It fits perfectly. I love the lightweight fabric and it is very breathable and flowy. I also love that I was able to get this at a discount at $10. Would have bought more if I knew I was going to love it this much! The price went back up. I also love the midi length. There are real buttons down the full length of the dress. There is some gapping as other commenters have mentioned. I just used small safety pins to secure the gaps at the bust area. No biggie.

Angenehm zu tragen und vielseitig kombinierbar. Der Stoff ist leicht aber blickdicht. Durch die Schleife lässt sich die Taille individuell eng binden, was besonders für sehr schmale Personen von Vorteil ist. Bei mir (1,63m) fällt das Kleid in Größe S über die Knie.

Uso copa DD en brasieres así que los vestidos y blusas con botones por lo general me dan problemas, me decidí por la talla extra grande y me quedó perfecto, ningún boton se abre ni necesito usar algún tipo de fondo para que no se vea la ropa interior. Creo que pude haber pedido la talla grande sin problema. Mido 1.58 y tengo las piernas muy cortas, el vestido me queda por debajo de la rodilla.

Nice everyday office dress.

Very happy with this dress - good quality, nice fit, comfortable and flattering!

Se lo compré a mi madre y está encantada, el tejido es muy agradable y queda suelto, el escote en V favorece mucho. Ella suele usar una talla XL y le queda perfecto.
