This is a great dress for travel, it is lightweight and doesn't wrinkle, they are very comfortable. It does run a bit small up top. I normally wear a large and had to exchange for the XL. Very happy with the dresses

I love this dress. It's very lightweight and flowy, but not see-through. Unfortunately, I'm busty but not hippy (that would be considered a plus in most cases). I ordered a large for my bust but the bottom part of the dress made me look hippy. That's almost always the case in a dress for me. I had to send it back because of the way it looked on me, but for slender people or busts that more match their hips, it's a great buy. It would be perfect for travel because it's lightweight and wouldn't wrinkle in packing.

I love the dress. I do agree with others - it's got a lightweight swimsuit feel, but on the other hand, there is a silky feeling to it as well. When I put it on, I didn't immediately think - whoa, this is like a swimsuit top. I love the cut, and I see the ability to easily dress this up or down. I am super pleased with this purchase.

LOVE this! The size small fits my 5'2", 32C body perfectly! The print and type of fabric makes it very, very casual and sporty. I will wear a half-slip with it, the fabric can be seen through.

These dresses are light weight and comfortable. They hit right at the knee and are perfect for travel...no wrinkles! Highly recommend.

I have this dress in a few colors and I brought this one to wear for a grad weekend. It was perfect for traveling and felt cool in hot and humid temps! Can't wait to wear it in Italy.

I own a Freezer 3 Dress from 3-4 years ago. One of my favorites, and go-to dress for summer. It hangs nicely from the chest area, thus covering tummy issues. Very light material, but mine has sustained all of it's properties from when it was new. I need a new one b/c the style of fabric is outdated now. I've tried the pretty, lighter colors, and I like the way the dark colors hide all imperfections from lighting sources. (5'4", 110#, 32D)

I LOVE this dress! It's perfect for travel: it packs easily and doesn't wrinkle. Stylish to dress it up or as a simple undress.

The fabric is light & airy. I love the feel. It is slightly clingy though so itll show the rolls. Haha Great for Florida or summer evening out with sandals.

The dress fabric is comfortable. I am 5'11" and the seam for the top rides high. The large is cut for a person with a shorter torso.

This would be a 5-star dress if it weren't for the triangle on the back saying it's a fishing dress. I don't fish, I just like clothes that are comfortable and are wicking/water-repellent for summer.

I LOVE the fabric, feels wonderful! I'm 5'3", 150 lbs, D chest. Only thing I don't like is the seam at chest line should be under my boobs but nope, seam rides low across them. Keeping for around the house.

I ordered two of these dresses, in a large and medium since both usually fit and it just depends on the fit that I like better (and I'm very big busted - 32I). I kept the Large in another pattern, but these dresses are so breezy and comfy that I ordered another one in a Large. Unfortunately, it is definitely more snug than the first in the same size, but fits well enough that I'm keeping it.

These dresses are so cool and comfortable. Lovely design and colors. I generally wear an XS in a sundress, but based on reviews, I ordered a S last year and it fit perfectly. I ordered a S this year as well, and the straps are longer and gap quite a bit. I took a tuck under the arms which seems to have solved the problem.

I bought two of these dresses and love how they fit and travel so well. I am 5'4" and 150 and need the large size even though I'm usually a medium. Otherwise, definitely recommend these dresses.

I ordered this dress in the more tropical pattern and loved it so much ordered the light blue color also. Unfortunately, the solid, light color shows lumps and bumps. Not my fashion goal. If you’re super slim, this dress will work for you but also make you look like a sack. And why look like a sack if you have the bod that you don’t need to hide? Skip this color. But the patterns are quite nice!

Very comfortable and cute. I think it might run a little small, but I sized up purposely so it was okay. Nice summer dress. I like the SPF feature. I wanted to maybe wear it to work with a cardigan or jacket, but it's not dressy enough.

Pretty pattern. Very casual dress, can accessorize to dress up. Not form fitting so if your large chested doesn't cling to show your curves, which is good and bad. The material is very much that of a thin swim suit as others have said, but on a hot day you can't beat it. Great summer go to.

OK, so the dress was really cute. It fit well too--I'm 5'7" about 165 lbs and usually wear a LG/12. But I could not get over how the material felt! I didn't read the description that its a special moisture wicking material or something, so I just thought it was going to feel like a regular dress. It was so thin, and felt like a popped balloon or something. Weird, I was not expecting that. I tried to convince myself to keep it, but I couldn't stand the way it felt so I had to return it. I live somewhere hot/humid in the summer so maybe I should've kept it, but it was driving me crazy to have it on. If you can get past the feeling of the dress go ahead and order it--it fits cute and would look so great with flip-flops or wedges. I can see it being a great dress to pack for a vacation.

Does any of your designers have larger breasts because a lot of us do. We are all not 5'8", thin and small breasted like the model! I ordered a XXL instead of my usual XL size after reading the comments and comparing the size guide. My concern was where the empire line would hit. Well, you screwed that part of this dress up. The line hits right in the center of my breasts. The material is like wearing nothing. It is wonderful. I live 5 miles from the Walt Disney World parks and in the extreme heat and humidity these dresses are just what I need. I am just disappointed in your designers. Everything about the dress is perfect EXCEPT you don't offer Petite and the empire line. Fix it and we will continue to buy more! I am not the only one complaining!

As another reviewer mentioned, the material is bathing suit material. It's a beach dress, not for everyday wear.

This dress was not for me. I bought it because the description said that it keeps you cool and I was headed to Australia. Sadly, however, it did not feel good on plus the material was a lightweight bath suit type material. Just a strange feel and drape for me.
