Reviews Summary

Customers keep coming back to this dress for its soft, silky feel and the way the fabric hangs and flows without clinging. It’s repeatedly described as easy to wear in hot or humid weather and versatile enough to dress up with a belt or keep relaxed for lounging, errands, and casual get-togethers. The only consistent caveat is length and volume: many mention it runs long and has a lot of fabric, which some love for the floaty look while others choose to hem.

What Customers Love Most

  • Soft, silky fabric that feels comfortable against the skin
  • Flowy drape that “hangs beautifully” and falls nicely over the body
  • Pockets (called out as a key detail people love)
  • Cool and comfortable to wear in hot/humid weather
  • Adjustable straps for an easier, more flexible fit

Customers Say These Are Perfect For

  • Hot or humid summer days when you want something cool and comfy
  • Lounging at home on warm days
  • Quick errands like “popping to the shops”
  • Anyone who wants an easy, flattering, non-clingy maxi that can be worn loose or belted
  • All-day events where you still want to look good by the end (e.g., Christmas Day)

Customer Feedback on Quality

  • Fabric is repeatedly described as “beautiful,” “soft,” “silky,” and a “lovely weight” with a high-quality feel
  • Holds up through a full day of wear and still “looked great at the end of the day”
  • Construction details people notice and appreciate: practical pockets and adjustable straps

Customer Fit Feedback

Most customers report: mostly true to size, with a consistent note that it runs long

Multiple reviewers say the size/fit is “perfect” or “fits nicely across the chest and arms and flows from there.” Length is the most repeated fit note: shorter customers (e.g., 159cm) found it very long, while taller customers (e.g., 175cm) loved the maxi length; several mention hemming or cutting some length off. A few also note there’s “a lot of fabric,” giving a fuller, sometimes heavier feel.

What Customers Say

  • "“Lovely long soft flowy dress. Super comfortable with adjustable straps. Great pockets.”"
  • "“This dress is stunning, either with a belt or loose and flowing.”"
  • "“Wore this on Christmas Day, it was cool & comfortable, still looked great at the end of the day.”"

Drapes the body beautifully and like all Dharma Bums clothing is so comfortable. Very flattering dress. If your tossing up between sizes, size down on this one. I am usually a size 8 and this fit perfectly - still nice and loose.

    Get comfortable.

    The colour is cheery for the summer .While the fabric is a bit heavier than I expected it is soft and really comfortable against the skin. I like the adjustable straps and am enjoying the dress for lounging around on hot days.
