I got a size small in blue; it’s a tad bit long (I’m only 5'2"), but I’ll wear it with wedge sandals, so that won’t be an issue! It’s very well-sewn and such a beautiful color, and I couldn’t be happier! (I love it so much I’ve already ordered a second one in another color!)I don’t ever want to take it off!" —Jaime

"Purchased this dress for vacation. It was perfect for an evening dinner and a night out. It fit well. The back is very revealing, but it was perfect for a night out. There is a drawstring in the back to allow you to either tighten or loosen the area around the waist and the back opening of the dress. The material is not heavy, nor is it too thin. Received lots of compliments." —Cassandra Vincent

Reviewers agree that if you want it fitted, size down.

Promising reviews: "I saw this girl wearing this exact style of dress with a Skims tag on the back, and honestly, it made me so grateful that I purchased this dress instead. It looks exactly like the Skims version, and I could be biased, but the material of this dress looked better than the Skims one. If you want it to be a little snug, I would definitely recommend sizing down one size from your normal size. So freaking comfortable and made out of thick material." —Kaitlyn

"This was purchased to add to my summer dresses. I recently bought one in brown and loved it. So I had to get it in this purple /lavender color. Material's just as good and thick, all while being form-fitting and going to my ankles. It's still breathable, and I could move around without worrying about anything coming loose. I love that even though it was a lighter color, you couldn't see what I was wearing underneath. Perfect. I receive compliments all the time in this dress, even from toddlers. They even know a great look when they see it. Haha. 😊" —Roxi Roxx

The top feels SO secure." —saraaa o.

Get it from Urban Outfitters for $69 (available in sizes XS—XL and in 12 styles).

9. A graphic maxi dress — even if you're a homebody, you'll probably force yourself to go outside to show this piece off. Reviewers loveee this as an alternative to the rather pricey $600 Alemais dress! I think it's time to snatch this up and book a flight to Rome. 👀

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This dress has gotten so many compliments. It’s absolutely beautiful. The print is so fun, and all the fabric makes you feel like a princess twirling around. It’s an amazing [alternative] for a brand that’s over-the-top expensive. It’s not completely see-through. I’ve worn it without anything underneath. Not a dealbreaker. But that all depends on you. It fits wonderfully. There are no pockets, but I wouldn’t want pockets with this dress because it would mess up the fun print." —PagingMrsGehrels

Get it from Amazon for $20.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in three prints).

I got this dress in five colors because they’re so perfect for summer! I cannot recommend highly enough! You should absolutely get one, it’s awesome value for the price. I machine washed them too, no issues with colors or with the ties getting tangled up! They also didn’t come out wrinkly, they seem really resistant to it which is awesome!" —Emily

I am five foot but very busty so trying to find dresses that fit and cover the boobs is incredibly difficult. I sized up so there would be room in the chest but thanks to the waist tie it helped define my waist. The dress covers the chest and thankfully it comes with a little button to add extra coverage.
