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 ...

Heavy and needs a zipper

Beautiful design but true to previous reviewers, dress is a heavy linen and as a result, it may not lay and drape right by the arms/armhole etc. although the dress is not scratchy it's not soft either, due to the stiff material. A softer material would drape and fit better and be more summer approp...

It's the perfect dress, thoughtful and flattering design. I will always pack it for a trip anywhere. Feminine and flowy. I'd like more colors! Love the pockets. Great price..

Comments about Linen Pocket Maxi Dress

This is a lovely linen dress, but as with many BR dresses, the shoulder to waist measurement is long when ordering bigger sizes. Would sure like to see a plus petite option in dresses and blazers! I've had to return most dresses for this reason.

Pretty dress. The linen is a bit itchy. And the top/bust runs small. I returned it.

I am a frequent Banana Republic shopper. I received my dress today 3/31 and I absolutely love it! I was hesitant to buy the small based on the reviews in some people stating that it was hard to get in and out of so I opted for the medium instead of a small and it fit perfectly. I love it easy to get in and out of I love the design. I can't speak enough about this dress. It is so gorgeous. I'm going to purchased the white as well. I am 5'6" and I am 145 pounds and medium bust. No issue getting in and out of this dress . I look forward to wearing this dress as well as the white one to come this is absolutely gorgeous. I give it five stars.

Love this dress!

Overall this dress fits great and good quality material. For us shorter people the petit version would be best lengthwise but not always available.

Beautiful well made although wish it had a small zipper lateral side of garment. Slightly snug when pulling over my head removing. Causes me to panic a bit.

I bought this in a medium, regular, olive green. I typically wear size 6/8 in dresses and the medium is just right. It's a gorgeous color and the fabric has a nice weight that hangs well. This is a simple summer dress that will make a nice canvas for accessories. I didn't have trouble getting it on and off, but can understand why some reviewers would prefer a side zipper or tie closure —especially in humid weather. I'm 5'8" and found the length adequate with flat summer sandals, but a bit longer/fuller skirt would have been better (especially for someone over 5'7" or so). Overall a nice dress and good value when purchased on sale.
