Patagonia Morning Glory Dress SKU: #7321155

Great casual dress - The only thing I'd change is I would have preferred it in cotton/spandex rather than nylon/lycra. The Morning Glory garments are essentially made of leotard-type fabric. (It's marketed as an after-climbing dress.) However, the thing seems so durable (because it's synthetic) that you could put on this dress to clean the house and work in the garden on hot days. I love the blackberry color, which is really more of a purple-ish grey. It is true to size, although I will have the hem taken up a couple turns to make the length more flattering for me. Patagonia tends to cut hem lengths long for modesty.

Perfect! I adore this dress! It leaves my body only when I am forced to wash it. This cut was sold out all over town, so I am back to Zappos to order my second dress in an alternate color. The synthetic fabric is nice because it doesn't stretch and bag out, the way another of my cotton Patagonia dress does. The dress can be casual and sporty, or I add some flashy jewelry and shoes to wear it to dinner out. I really love the style and adjustable back; the A-line flatters my pear shape (I'm a size 12/14 bottom, size L fits be like a dream). I only wish it came in more colors or patterns! :)

Great Dress - This dress is really great. The only reason I gave it a 4 for Comfort is because I have a larger chest and I have to be very conscious when out in public that I don't look like I have 3 boobs (where the seam below your boobs comes up onto them and it looks funny). Other than that, it's very comfortable and I wear it around the house and also out. It is perfect for the beach, too. It is very flattering, and I have received many compliments. If you like it but aren't sure you want to buy it, go ahead and get it and you'll love it. And if you don't, you can return it for free because it's Zappos! :)

Very flattering and comfortable - This is a great little dress. It can be worn as casual and sporty or dressed up a bit. Either way it's sexy and classy. It's very flattering and doesn't show imperfections through the material. I'd love to have in more colors!

Oh the Glory! This dress is SOO comfortable. SOO Flattering. I am a tall, rather well endowed woman...this dress is supportive, and comfy. Wear it with flip flops or wear it with diamonds and heels. You'll not regret this purchase. I bought it for a trip to Mexico and I couldn't hardly bring myself to wear anything else I brought.

Great dress for girls with curves! I am pear shaped and got curves and this dress looks fabulous! It is also comfortable and can be used in many situations and events. Although the price seemed a bit high for me- is it worth it. I would recommend getting it in a few colors since you will use it a lot!

Perfect Summer Dress - Absolutely the best dress I have ever bought. Works well for athletic women. Clings more around the stomach than the pictures show, but a great dress overall.

Totally cute dress. Color was a bit lighter than i hoped but still wearable. Hoping I can still get it in black! Zappos is amazing!

Great dress! I bought this dress in "tinted ice". Even though it is advertised as an "after climbing" dress it works great for any occasion. I wore it for Easter with a little sweater and strappy shoes and got a lot of compliments.

Summer dress needs summer body - This is a lovely dress, but the material is a bit clingy, especially round the tummy area. It looks great on, is very comfortable, but when I saw a side view, I wanted to lose 5 pounds.

Comfy Dress - This dress is very comfortable and looks good. I've worn it twice, once with heels and once with sandals and it worked well with both. I am tall (5'9", 160#), with broad shoulders and back, and the large fit me pretty well, but it clearly is not a design for the large breasted woman - if I were any more well endowed than the fairly average B cup, I would be busting out of the top.

Easy and comfortable - This halter dress is very flattering and an easy choice to throw on for the weekend. I saw reviews mentioning it flattering lots of curves; I'm rather the opposite and it still works well for me. The length is nice, too, because the fabric makes it appropriate for more active pursuits - I wore it while bike-riding in the city this weekend. I'm overall very pleased although I wouldn't choose it for a dinner date given the swimsuit-like material and Patagonia logo imprinted just above the small of your back.

This dress rocks - I love this dress. Straight out of the box, I wore it both to the gym (over my workout clothes) and the next week to a wedding. It is a total multitasker!

Cute and comfortable - I needed a dress for my friends casual outdoor wedding and I am very happy with my choice. It’s just dressy enough to be appropriate, but still comfortable enough to dance and eat in. The halter does not pull on my neck like others I have worn and the fabric is not too clingy around the mid section so I can sit down and relax without worrying about the dreaded stomach roll.

The dress for ALL occasions! I bought this dress when I was 4 months pregnant, heading into the heat of the summer. When I first put it on, I felt gorgeous AND super comfortable! I am now 7 months pregnant and own the black, blue, and brown copies of the Morning Glory Dress - I wear these almost every single day. People on the street are amazed that you can look pregnant AND so cute at the same time!

Love This Dress! Amazing dress and so very flattering! Just what you'd expect from Patagonia. Comfortable, high-quality fabric that is not too clingy around the mid-section. I'm 5'7" 122 lbs and the small fit me perfectly. Can be dressed up or down and packs extremely well! Bought this dress for a trip to Central America and just about LIVED in it the entire time!

My perfect dress. Period. I was looking for a new black dress that could dress up and down so that I could wear it to an upcoming wedding and then get some use out of it in the summer. This dress does it all. The halter style is very flattering and the extra tie in the back gives it a little style and lets you cinch up the bust a bit. A little extra support never hurt anyone, you know. The hem falls just below the knee, which is perfect for my scarred soccer knees. The cut is cute - kinda flirty - with a nice A-line drape. I found the waistline to be perfect - not too grabby. The fabric is a tad shiny, like a swimsuit might be, which I was sort of worried about since I am wearing it to a wedding, but with a pair of antique silver heels, it just looks dressy - not pool-ish. As far as the Patagonia logo on the back, I hardly care. If you're really opposed to it but love the dress, I'd suggest pinning a cute brooch over it. I thought I might do that until I decided that I like that everyone else will be wearing uncomfortable wedding type clothes and I'll have this super cute and very comfortable Patagonia dress to enjoy. Then I'll spend the summer wearing it with flip flops over my bikini. LOVE IT.

I love this dress. I have two of the morning glory dresses, which I bought quite awhile ago. It is so comfortable to wear in hot weather. My opinion is that the fit runs a little large, but I'm seeing that other reviews say the opposite, so maybe they've adjusted the fit? I actually have the dress in small and medium. The medium is loose around my waist, but still flattering. I did have to hem it as the original length was not flattering on me (I'm short). My only other critique is that I think it's hard to wear a cardigan over it, as you have a little lump from the knot closure in back.
