Great … but if it works!

Love the dress and weight of the linen. It's not lined,though. My issue, like others, is the lack of a zipper! So odd that designers approved this! I am 5'5, 135lbs, A cup, straight build (no curves) XS looked best on me but it felt a tad uncomfortable/tight (linen with minimal stretch) and I then ...

This Dress Needs A ZIPPER!!

I'm 5'9", and weigh 130 lbs. ordered an XS and S. Small was too loose, lacked shape, and a little tough to get off. Tried XS. Looked great on, but verged on a panic attack trying to get it off. I'm not kidding...it was like getting out of a straight jacket!! Why does BR keep making dresses without z...

Heavy linen, hard to get on/off

It's beautiful but… it's heavy linen. If you want mid- lightweight linen, this may not be for you. Needs a zipper! I think this might be too heavy for a summer dress. The olive green is beautiful but I think I'm returning.

A fantastic dress when it is on, but it is the getting it on and off that is the issue! I may keep it because once on, it is terrific, but I am not sure I will reach for it too often due to the gymnastics needed to put it on.

I thought this could be a great summer dress and I ordered my usual S. The armholes are too deep and it wasn't available any more in petite (I'm 5'4"). I'm afraid XS would be too difficult to get on and off without a zipper though I think it would have fit well through the body - the S was very roomy.

Beautiful linen, but hard to take off. It needs a zipper!

The linen is very good quality, and I loved the olive color. However, as someone else pointed out, it really needs a zipper. I ordered my size and one size larger. My usual size fit my body very nicely, but I needed help to take it off. I just cannot keep something I need help getting out of! The larger size would have needed so many alterations that it was not worth keeping.

Perfect.

Beautifully made. The chocolate brown colour is stunning. Fits loose TTS. I'm not sure why some people had issues getting in and out of this dress. It does not have a zipper but it doesn't need one. Easy to pull on and off. Don't put it on over head. Step into it and step out of it. Easy peasy. Love the pockets.

A beautiful light well crafted summer dress

This dress is going to be my new favorite summer dress , unlike others I don't want lining in hot summer weather. It's a beautiful linen weave of high quality, the length and fit is flattering as well. For reference I'm 5'6 , 140 pounds size 36 c , I do have to pull it over my boobs but it's not a big deal because once that's done the fit is amazing. Definitely not a dress for anything over c cups , it does have a v plunge front and back which is perfect design wise. Overall an airy stylish summer dress that's crafted so elegantly and the deep brown is so earthy and yummy! Definitely on repeat this summer

I'm not kidding...it was like getting out of a straight jacket!! Why does BR keep making dresses without zippers?! Other than the lack of zipper, it's a lovely dress, color, fabric, and pockets. Going to see if my tailor can add a zipper....

Great summer dress for SoCAL. I have to agree with the crowd needs a zipper ....#BR. The green color is a GOURGEOUS color, the white was too see through for my taste, may just pick it up and dye it a different color... 🤔

Love the dress and weight of the linen. It's not lined,though. My issue, like others, is the lack of a zipper! So odd that designers approved this! I am 5'5, 135lbs, A cup, straight build (no curves) XS looked best on me but it felt a tad uncomfortable/tight (linen with minimal stretch) and I then needed the sales assistant to help me out of the dress because I literally couldn't get it off! Ended up purchasing size S because at the end of the day I felt good in it and I loved the dress! I think this dress could be great for the right person but I could see it not working for some body types. Would recommend trying it on first. I would say it true to size and maybe runs slightly large since I'm normally between a size small and medium.
