Cute dress

Cute dress, true to size with generous fit in the hips. Medium works for 34C, and curvy hips. The lining is nice, the linen is soft. The black isn't a dark black so hopefully it won't fade in the wash. I wish it was a traditional or racer back rather than U shaped though ~ easier to not have a b...

Too big and too small lol

I read that in another review and it is true! I am 5'7". 165 lbs, 36B, athletic build, and M Tall is what ordered. It is ever so snug under my arms, but verrrryyy wide on the bottom. I sure wish this style could be tweaked.. a little less A-line! The material is very very nice! Lined! Pockets! So mu...

Comments about Retreat Linen Dress

The linen is substantial and soft, AND its lined. I'm pretty much always a petite XS at athleta (for example, in the retreat linen pants) but I got this dress in a regular XXS. Its still mini length in a regular size on me and I'm only 5'0", so I imagine the petite is quite short. I'm more pear shaped... 32A on top and wider hips so with the loose trapeze cut of this dress I was able to comfortably go down to an XXS.

Comments about Retreat Linen Dress

Purchased the medium. Fit well without feeling like too much material. Lined which is nice. A bit short if that bothers you but I feel frumpy when dresses hit around the knee…normally don't like to wear white but this dress changed my mind.

Perfect Summer dress

I am 5'2" 36C bra size 120lbs I purchased size small. The fit is perfect on top and flares to a A line bottom. The armholes are a good fit covering the underarm and sides. The dress is fully lined.
