Patagonia Margot Dress - Women's

I love any piece of clothing that can do double-duty in and out of the office. This is definitely one of them. It was perfectly comfortable while blueberry picking, but just as comfy at work. The cut is a bit deep for my liking, so I wear a cami under it at the office. Also, I bought this based on my hip size (39"), which put me in a medium. That meant the top was a little loose, so a trip to the tailor shortened the straps and sewed the front pieces together to prevent any peep shows when I bent over. Other than that, I'm totally happy with this dress.

Extra cute dress for the summer that is flattering and fun. Easy to wash and easy to pack. Great for travel. I'm 5'8, athletic build, typically a Medium, and the Medium fits great in this dress. I have the Anise: Rosehip, and the color is not as bright as featured above..it's softer.

I have always been a pants person. Now that I am 60, I am feeling liberated from whatever drove me to always wear pants... almost. I have taken to wearing dresses and skirts over pants and this one works well for me. I love it and my legs are still warm and I am wearing a dress! Imagine that. Miracles do happen.

I absolutely love Patagonia gear, and I wear it just about every single day. I don't wear a lot of dresses, but when I do, it is definitely a Patagonia dress. I have a couple of the Margot dresses, for they are perfect for spring and summer. For work, I typically put a little cardigan or sweater over it, which dresses it up a little and makes it work-appropriate. However, when I leave work, I wear it as is, without the sweater or cardigan, and it is perfect for a night on the town or in the heat of the summer. The only minor issue I have is that the straps are a little long for me, which makes the cut a little low. Besides that, this dress is the perfect addition to the wardrobe.

This is a great dress. Unber flattering and a great length, but wow does it plunge on top. Be prepared to attract a little attention.

I was hoping this dress might not be so slim-fitting in the skirt as it turned out to be on me (got a medium as large Patagonia stuff is usually too big). Way too much information around the hip and belly area, which was a shame, as the top half was perfect, and I liked the length. Not sure whether I should exchange up to large as I am worried there will be too much space for the girls, but at this point it's going to be a return for me.
Unless you are slim around the waist and hips, this dress will be very clingy -

The fabrics are beautiful and move with you. A modest and versatile length at just above the knee. Can be dressed up or down with jewelry and cardigan. I loved the one I bought so much that I bought another!
Form and function.

This fits true, wears like a dream and looks great dressed up or down. The neckline is a bit low (yikes) but it stays put. ...

Wonderfully comfortable in the heat, and flattering, too. Wore all day in humid 90 degrees, and got so many compliments from friends and strangers alike who wanted to know where I bought the dress. I'm usually a size small/4-6, but for this dress I fit the extra small best. Being rather flat-chested (34B), the straps were actually a little roomy, but not enough to complain about or "cause a scene."

I love sun-dresseds and Patagonia has a fit that works for me. it is a mainly cotton dress, with smooth lines. the waist-band is right under my bustline, and draws attention away from the tummy that I like to pretend isn't there. I live at 9000ft+ so I don't get much humidity or sweat when I wear a dress; I weat more active clothes for hiking and biking.
I feel like a pretty cool mountain girl in this dress, I got a small, and am generally a size small, between 4 and 6.
I can wear the dress without additional support, and don't worry about headlights, or falling out of the top.

Great dress, easy to wear/wash, perfect for travel.

Its a nice dress but the top fits a little loose. I would recommend ordering a size smaller than you take if your breast size is 36C or less. The material is knit and looks like it after the first wash.

This dress has wonderful versatility. You can throw it on for a day of running errands, transporting kids, etc. It works just as well for a barbecue or evening boat ride. The fabric holds its shape well (doesn't stretch out) and the cut is forgiving for "not so perfect" bods. To be specific, you can wear a bra and it falls loosely from the waist. This cut works great if you are a little "hippy" like me!

Great dress to throw on and look good in, when you don't have the time to look good.

Very fun, summer dress .

OK, further to my review earlier where I got the medium and it was a tad too informative about my less-than-svelte lower half: I now have the large and while it's a bit loose on top, it now drapes nicely. It's really comfortable, and I like the pattern (Spanish Tiles) a lot. I'm going to put a stitch in the bodice to keep it from gaping, given that it's more roomy than I need, but now I have a nice little dress to wear through summer.

I bought a Margot dress last year and loved it so much I wanted another one. The one I bought this year is sized for an Amazon. I'm 5' tall and thin and I bought an XS ... last year it fit perfectly. I had to have the skirt on the new one shortened 3 inches and the straps taken up a lot, plus the sides taken in at the arms for gapping in the one I got this year. I definitely haven't shrunk, and I'm sad that they've altered their sizing so much! They're splendid dresses, but I had to pay as much to have it altered as I did to buy it :(

I love my new Margot sundress! It dresses up or down and has a very flattering fit. I wear a 6 and got the small which fits like a dream. It hugs the torso but floats over the hips which is great for pear and hourglass figures. It probably wouldn't flatter an apple silhouette as well. I'm usually not a fan of orange, but this dress is a great shade and looks awesome! I'm planning to buy it in black as well if I can find a small somewhere...

I just bought this dress in black and I'm very happy with my purchase. The jersey is comfortable and somehow elegant. I'm very pleased with how this dress flatters my, um...let's go with "voluptuous" figure. The hem does fall above the knee, so that is something to be aware of. I would recommend it.

I had the same problem as some previous reviewers... too clingy/tight in the waist/stomach area. It fit perfectly up top, but unfortunately not enough flow of fabric out from the empire waist (which would usually be the perfect style for my body shape, but sadly not with this particular dress). Otherwise it's really cute and the fabric has a nice feel.

So... recommended if you are on the slim side, and not recommended if your middle is your "problem area."

This is a super comfortable dress. I love wearing it. I am 5'7" and it's a little on the short side for more conservative situations, but for everyday wear it's amazing.

not conservative at all
