I was so excited to see these dresses at Sams at such a reasonable price! I have been a long time OV exercise dress wearer - there's nothing better in the summer for walks and just overall active days to stay cool and look put together. However, this dress is not like an exercise dress you can buy direct from OV. The liner in this dress is WAY thicker and heavier, does not have pockets, and has a padded shelf bra built in. All of these make it way less comfy and not breathable. I know the original OV ED is much more money but if you check their sale section you can usually grab one for $40-60 and it's just worlds better than this. It's actually breathable and comfy and the adjustable straps make it easy to get up and down. Pockets are a must have as well.

As others have stated, this is poorly designed. The dress itself was true to size, however, the straps did not have any stretch at all and since you have to step into the dress and pull it up over your arms, it did not work. I wear a size 4 to 6 and ordered the medium. My arms are muscular and just trying to pull the strap over each arm onto the shoulder. It was cutting into me. Will be returning.

Cute is the only reason it got 2 stars. The straps do not stretch AT ALL, Which makes it extremely hard to get on and off. It's nearly impossible to go to the bathroom. The straps are thin and dig into your shoulders and offer no support. If you have bigger boobs (DDD) it's a no go. Do not recommend.

One star for overlooking a pretty basic reality: women need to use the bathroom during the day too. The built-in shorts have no way to pull them down without taking the entire dress off, which is wildly impractical. Cute idea, but the design clearly wasn't tested for real-life wear by a woman.

great dress. I thought the straps looked cheap as well but they seem OK so far. They don’t dig in and it is easy for me to take it on and off. I do wish the shorts went down in the back for the bathroom. The color selection is great. The dress is really lightweight and not form fitting. I probably weigh in the 150s and I’m either a D or a double D and I’m wearing a medium and it fits fine. And some parts even seem big. I am 5’4”. it has good room in the midsection for my mommy pouch that I’m working on. It only shows a little bit.

I wanted to like this dress but you have to be Hudini to get into it! Built in shorts are great but you have to shimmy into it by stepping thru the neckline and there is little stretch to comfortably accomplish this. The 5 star reviews that said, comfy fit and easy to get on could not have actually tried this on. Would love to buy this again if the manufacturer would actually make it user friendly.

Not a fan. Made for someone with no boobs I guess. The bra pad inserts were so thin they did not conceal anything. The dress was so hard to get on. Had to loosen the straps all the way to get my arms in it and then had to tighten them up which was so hard because the adjustment pieces were so cheap and almost impossible to reach once the dress is on.

I really love this print. however I wore it only once and the strap broke right off. I'm really sad about it as I do love the fit of the dress otherwise. pic included of it tearing at the concert i wore it to.

Since the straps are not very stretchy and I am a curvy girl the dress did not even make it over my hips. Very sad as I am looking for comfortable golf clothing.

Like others have stated other review, this dress is not designed properly. The straps have virtually no elasticity in the straps and the sport back style makes so difficult to get on and off if you have any hips, the straps have to be completely open to get on, but once on, you need someone to tighten the straps. If you need to go to the bathroom, good luck, make sure you bring a friend with to adjust the straps to get out of it and then tighten once you get back into it. I agree with other reviews on sizing. I had to size up 2 sizes and even then getting it on and off was way too difficult and inconvenient. I really like the style of the dress, aside front m all the issues I encountered. If they just change the straps to be elastic, it would likely solve the problems. I loved the fabric and colors!
