This dress can do anything. It's absolutely gorgeous for dress up if you add a chunky necklace and put your hair up. But, you can add flip flops and be casual, too. The small fit me perfectly, and I am 5'6", 117ish lbs. You don't need a bra with this since the fabric is pretty substantial (fine for smaller-busted ladies). The ONLY complaint is that if you are going to be sitting, the knot in the back can make your spine kind of hurt! The length is good too, below the knee to mid-calf on me.

I bought this dress for my fiance and we both love it. It fits her body really well, which I enjoy, and it's apparently really comfortable which she enjoys. I've taken her hiking and to a nice dinner in the dress. Plus it was 25% off which was great. Guys, you should definitely get this dress for your girl, she'll love it! Word of advice though, take her to a store that has the dress in stock to make sure you get the right size. Then get the right price at backcountry.com. That's every mans downfall when it comes to buying clothes for women.

This dress was lovely, nice material, nice color; I just couldn't deal with straps that you need to tie in the back. I felt the lump from the knot when sitting back in a chair or when I tried it with a sweater. I prefer to have a dress where you don't need to adjust. I had also ordered the Patagonia Vitaliti dress, which fit me much better, no knot to tie in the back. So this one was returned.

this is a great dress, although I feel very dressed up when I wear it. it has good bust support - my friend and I agreed you might go up a size to accommodate a bigger chest. plus, then it's not too clingy. the material is like a bathing suit.

I can't say enough great things about this dress. I wear it everywhere, including rafting. I'll wear it in the river...it drys quickly and then still looks good enough to grab dinner afterwards. I'm 5'6'' 135 and 34D...I wear a medium with a swimsuit or without a bra. It has been referred to as the river goddess dress and all of my friends want to get one!

This dress is gorgeous. Lots of compliments. It's tight fitting, but very comfortable. I'd say it's true to size unless you don't want it to fit you tightly. It seems more dressy than I wanted it, but I still love it as an evening dress--summertime of course! I highly recommend this dress.

Like someone else said, the only drawback is the knot in the back--otherwise, I'd probably be wearing it 24/7 when traveling. It's flattering, wicked comfortable, can be dressed up or down, it's really a perfect summer dress. Never would have thought it would be so cute when it was on the hanger, so definitely give it a shot.

This dress is a perfect fit. I like it for going out and dressing it up, but I think it's a good summer dress for the day time as well. I have a larger chest and I like the support it gives me. I got it in an XS and it's a great length, as well as a great bust support. I would definitely recommend this dress. The blue harbor color is just as it seems in the picture too, so if you like the color online, you won't be disappointed!

This dress is so fabulous I bought 2. It is the most comfortable dress and, for that matter, piece of clothing I've ever owned. It's best feature is that you can dress it up for a night on the town or wear it as simple beach attire. The material, the built in bra, the stylish halter and free flowing empire waist achieve a sexy, flattering, comfortable end result. I just can't say enough about this dress!!!!

I'm 5ft4 and this dress is way too long for me... I read the reviews before and thought I would give it a try. It is not (definitely not) a "dressy" dress and yes, it does feel like a bathing suit. I'm a full C cup and it supports absolutely nothing. With a bra it looks stupid, so I'm sorry to say this is going to be returned.

This dress is so comfy, but unless you are six foot tall, it's too long for a do-anything summer dress. I'm five-3 and it comes to mid-calf. Hems great though

I'm 5'5'' and typically wear a dress Size 6. I ordered the medium based on others' reviews. I was most worried about how well this dress would support 'the girls' (my bust is 34 D), but it does amazingly well. The fabric is substantial enough to keep 'em in place. Had I just seen this dress on a hanger in a store, I never would have given it a shot. I wouldn't do any jogging in it, but it'll be nice to skip the bra in the hot weather. The length is good - hits me just below the knee. The fabric does tend to cling a little in the midsection, but overall the fit is very flattering.

I wore this dress to a kickball game (I wasn't playing that day). Then we went and had drinks. I wore it with flip flops and it was very comfortable and I got LOTS of compliments! I am 5'7" and weigh right at 120 lbs. It was sooo comfortable, but I was still plenty dressed up. I nursed my son for awhile (previously) and I had no problem with support in that area...

This dress is really comfortable, even on humid sticky days or nights. The length fits me well, short enough to show a little leg, long enough to ride the cruiser bike around town. The fit is becoming, but be careful of panty lines.
