Many of the reviews commented that a larger size than usual was needed for comfort or a 'casual' look, so I ordered Large instead of my normal Medium. I am going to trade for a Medium. Because of the cut the Large just looks sloppy on me. I am 5'7" and 145 lbs. with fairly broad shoulders and should still have plenty of room one size down.Fabric is ok - kind of a crinkly cotton - and there were no defects in this one. Hope the replacement holds up.The fabric of the one received looked pre-washed and a bit faded. I think it won’t stay its original color after washing, it fades out. The pockets were rumpled too and won’t lie flat around midsection without ironing first. The dress is one size too small if you assume typical US sizes.I get the navy blue color and it’s lovely. I would have liked it to have been softer but I haven’t washed it yet so maybe after… you never know.The material is nice, soft and pleasing style but be warned the larger sizes fits much much smaller than expected.Fabric is a little stiff and will probably change with washing but I still love the bold check color. Received many compliments when wearing itI bought this dress to wear open like a giant shirt over my cute summer outfits and it is perfect. The material is a little rough but I washed it once in hot water with 1/2 a cup of sea salt and 1/2 cup of white vinegar and it softened immensely. It is a little tight in the armpit, but I am also a 6ft 230 lb man, so i imagine it would be perfect on a woman with more slender arm. Button construction was solid.I got the purple hoping it would be the earthy muted purple/taupe color in the photo. It is verrrrrry pastel. It reads Easter. I’m so bummed because I love everything else about the dress. Was hoping to wear it to a special occasion this weekend. I’ll be returning this but ordering in another more nuetral color because I love the fit. Although not totally floor length. I’d say it comes mid shin (before washing). But I still really like the fit! A lot. Will probably try the apricot or navy color next. Ordered a XXL.I liked the dress but it is to large. Go down a size.Largos hasta el tobillo casi. Frescos
