Love it!

I got this in brown/blue in my regular size of medium. I'm 5'8 140lb. I could have sized down but I wanted it to be loose and comfortable. I love the fit. Love the pockets. The blue color isn't as vibrant as the picture but it's still a beautiful cool periwinkle or cornflower blue. The fabric is ver...

Comments about Cotton Poplin Barrel Shirt Dress

I have yet to get this in a size that actually fits me- but based on the size that almost fits me- I think I'll love it! I love the color blocking with the bright colors (wish they had chosen something else for the blue other than brown :-/), and I love love LOVE the sleeves and the fact that there are pockets. As someone else noted: it is correctly sized in the shoulders and bust, which means you probably shouldn't size down (which is why the M I tried almost fit me, but not really). The rest of the dress is oversized, which is just great for a comfy fun fit. I'm either an L or an XL usually at BR, depending on fit- if it's crazy oversized I have some Ms- but it looks like this one will be an L for me- if I can get my hands on it- I'm hoping the XL is also fine, because I've actually been able to order that! The one thing I don't like is that the blousing of the shirt fit on the top half balloons out because it's stifled at the dropped waist junction- maybe this won't happen in a bigger size- if it does, I'm just going to sew down the shirt style pleating at the back so it stays put. As I'm writing this I'm enjoying my bright grass green utility style dress from last year and wishing BR did more bold color in general.

Size down, dress runs large.

Comments about Cotton Poplin Barrel Shirt Dress

I really like this dress, it is very loss and comfortable and the coloring is vivid. I find it runs large, I ordered a small and usually can fit a medium.

Comments about Cotton Poplin Barrel Shirt Dress

Perfect combination of colors, lightweight yet substantial fabric that holds the barrel shape. Not sheer, but a slip undergarment would be best. I love it!

Too oversized and the color blocking did not work well

My husband thought I was trying on one of his shirts

This dress has so much potential. The style of it, the design, it's so cool. But there is so much extra fabric but you can't even put a belt around it. I am 5'3 weigh 125 lb and I'm a 34 b. I purchase an xxs in this dress and I was still swimming in it.

Love it!

The blue color isn't as vibrant as the picture but it's still a beautiful cool periwinkle or cornflower blue. The fabric is very buttery and soft. I think it's really flattering. I love it so much I'm not even bummed it went on sale right after I bought. I am really bummed I didn't get the other color too before it sold out. Please keep making this in other colors!

Comfortable, and High-Quality!

Comments about Cotton Poplin Barrel Shirt Dress

Absolutely love this dress! The 100% cotton poplin is incredibly soft and high-quality. The colorblocking is vibrant and looks high-fashion. Heads up: It has a very generous, oversized 'barrel' fit, so I'd recommend sizing down (I went one size down and it's perfect). It's the perfect breathable piece for summer—plus, it has pockets!

Terribly big and long !!

Oversized in body but fits standard in shoulders. I am obsessed with the colours - I bought both.

Love this dress!
