The dress is interesting and cute. So happy to have something I can wear a bra with though I had hoped the back opening would flare out more dramatically that it does. The red is super bright and the front pocket design makes no sense. You can't easily put your hands in without looking like you're w...
Was really looking forward to getting this dress and was so confused when it arrived. There is an "invisible zipper" with a very visible zipper pull and hook and eye closure at the front of the dress right at the neck. I've never seen something this weird before. It feels like a mistake. I have to r...

Overall fit was interesting with the cap sleeves, back opening, and front pockets. But overall I really like it.

This dress is a lil funky. Very unstructured with ties everywhere. Didn't work for me, but to each their own.

this dress is looks better in person than on the ad once you get it you'll see it's beautiful
The dress is interesting and cute. So happy to have something I can wear a bra with though I had hoped the back opening would flare out more dramatically that it does. The red is super bright and the front pocket design makes no sense. You can't easily put your hands in without looking like you're wearing an apron. The side ties are a cool touch and actually functional to tighten the waist. The neck zip is a bit strange. A nice touch to make a slit but hidden buttons would have been better suited. The whole dress has a lot of gorp core details. I wish the color choices would have been better.

Loved the fit of this dress! I wasn't sure how to tie the back but there are a couple of different ways to wear it. Also love that there are no plastics or polyesters in the fabric. #sweepstakes
This dress is SO cute and fun!! It will probably be my favorite dress this summer!! The brown color is a perfect dark chocolate. I love all the unique details that make it different – the double-drawstrings, the open back, the pockets, and the zip front. Just wish I could have gotten the petite size, but it sold out. It will look amazing with flat sandals, heels and sneakers. I need this dress to come in more colors!!

Love the bright pop of coral red. Ended up exchanging Regular Small for Petite Small to get the fit right for me (5'4" & 140lbs). The ruching, pockets, ties & front zipper are all fun details. I did find the silver hook & eye at top of zipper distracting, but it was easy to remove. I took off 1 star for the crisp poplin fabric which requires ironing & wrinkles easily. I wish BR would start making dresses like this in a softer summer fabric like cotton gauze.
This dress is almost effortless and can almost be worn with a regular bra, except the armholes cut quite low (can be seen some of the model photos, as well as the attached 00P photo for reference). Despite this, I love the brown color and overall asthetics of the dress, and the cut of the dress is forgiving enough to take in the bust to fix the armhole problem for me.
Got the dress in the brown because the red is super bright and the yellow/green pattern is distracting with the smocking. It's beautiful deep chocolate but I wish they'd offer it in other solid colors. Very comfortable and can be dressed up or down.

This design of this sweater is unique. It has a lot going on but somehow works. Unfortunately, I returned as the brown was a little too dark for me.
