I bought these exceptionally cute dresses for myself and my daughter to wear to a theme park when we went on water rides. The idea was that they would act sort of like a swimming suit, because that's the kind of material they are, and would dry quickly while enjoying the park. They're really cute and the material is comfortable. Unfortunately that is where the good points end. Let me start by saying that 9 times out of 10, I wear an XL so I bought that size accordingly. There's no way to try clothes on in the store, because if there had been, I could've saved the almost 3 hrs round trip to return these. dresses. First, let me start by saying that whoever designed these needs to go back to fashion school or wherever you go to relearn how to determine measurements and sizes. When I got home, I immediately tryed (key word tryed) my dress on. I struggled to get the top of the dress past my superfluous rear end because the top is way too small. Then I struggled to get my arms in the incredibly flimsy straps, that should've been detachable but are not, after finally succeeding in pulling the dress all the way up. It was like trying to escape from being tied up to get the top on. By now I was ready to quit and throw this thing in the fireplace to burn it, but I was still a bit optimistic. Next I struggled to contain "the girls" in the ridiculously small shelf bra attached. I'm sitting here in the dress after doing battle to get it on, while writing this review and praying I don't pop a strap before I take it off. If you're a girl that has a small chest and non-existent backside, then this is the perfect dress for you. If you're like me and are blessed in certain areas, the keep walking right on past the table that these dresses are on.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!
