Customer Reviews Toad&Co Long Island Dress

I love this dress. It is very flattering with the gathering at tummy level. The adjustable straps help minimize cleavage if need be. And a secret pocket on the hip to store an ID or cash.

I ordered this one size down and am happy I did so. I don't have a lot in the curves department. Had this been any larger it wouldn't have stayed up on top. The XS size has a perfect length for my 5'6" height. The waist detail is very flattering. For my boy-ish body, it actually gives the illusion of a little hip action. I can see this being a really flattering dress for many different body types. The fabric is soft, but not too thin. Not see-through in the sunlight like some other maxi dresses I've tried. I just might have to purchase this in additional colors!

I love this dress! Quality fabric with flattering drape and ruching. It was dragging on floor until I washed/tumble dried it to shrink to a perfect length that floats just about floor while in flat sandals. I'm 5'7" 135# B-cup, ordered the medium; a little loose in the top (a bra-top helps) but perfect in the waist/hips. I knocked off one star because the adjustable strap was sewn in twisted. Out came the needle and thread because I wanted to wear it right away and couldn't wait for return/replacement process. Don't hesitate to order this dress!

I'm obsessed with this dress. I wear it all the time. It's incredibly flattering, comfortable, and beautiful. I wish it was a truer, deep black (it's a soft black, but not quite grey) but it's still my favourite dress. I ordered a medium and a large and the medium fit better. I'm 5'6, 150-ish pounds.

Comfortable cotton mix dress. Feel like the regular fit might be a little too big (long in torso) for my 5'3" height, but the straps are adjustable making it look better.

This dress is perfect paired with sandals and a cropped denim jacket! I am 5'7" and it is long enough to graze the floor. I love it!

Dream Dress! I am 5"10 and 180 lbs, with a 38DD chest and a belly...and this dress fits great! The built in bra is only just barely big enough, but I so love this maxi. The cut is just perfect to flatter my body. The only thing is there is something about the stitching that irritates my skin, but it is still a great piece.

Great dress! I was sure this wouldn't look good on my curves, and then I tried it on. I am a size 12-14, 5'5" with 38DDs, and the large is perfect. The shelf bra is ample, and you can also wear a sleek regular bra under. Don't cut the hem until you've washed and dried it. I didn't need to shorten it.

love the dress! 5'4" 125 small fits great drags a little on the floor but I like that. I also has a small hidden zipper in the back which I liked. I picked the navy I would consider getting another color just want to see how it washes. I ordered 4 long dresses from zappos and this is the only one I'm keeping

I bought this dress in black last summer. I loved it so much I wanted to get another one but they were sold out of my size (XS). But it's back! So I now own two in black and one in the Bretton Blue stripe. the dark colored versions of this dress are super flattering. They make you look at least five pounds slimmer. I also tried the Falcon Brown-meh-didn't have the same effect. But I carry some weight in my lower belly. If you don't, it probably wouldn't be an issue. If you do, the banding is ah-mah-zing. I'm short (5 ft, 112 pounds) so it is longish but I had the dresses hemmed (I'm not crazy about the cut away hem- I can't cut straight enough to make that work). The extra expense of hemming was wholly justified given how much I wear these dresses- I wear the crap out of them. With a jean jacket thrown on and some thongs I am ready to face the day. With a wedge and bangle bracelet I am ready to do drinks with girlfriends on a patio someplace. Best dress ever.

I can't say enough good things about this dress. It's absolutely adorable! I may have to order another one in a different color, and that's something I never do! It covers nicely but the shape is extremely flattering and sexy. I love the dropped waist, it's very slimming across the front and back. I did have to hem the straps for a little extra support on top, but it was easy. The length definitely drags on floor a bit but I think it's supposed to. The fabric is not too thin, not too thick. and double material at top. The small fit great, I'm 125 pounds, 32DD and 5'5".

This dress looks great when you put it on! Well made and very comfortable. I am 5'7" 145 pounds and ordered medium but sent it back for a small which fits perfectly. It is the perfect length for me and no alterations are needed.

I just received this a few days ago. I haven't worn it out yet, but I look forward to taking it on our travels this year. The material is wonderfully soft, but as another mentioned not see-thru like some maxis. It's on the long side, but I haven't tried washing it yet, so may shrink up. Right now it'd be perfect with a wedge sandal, but not so great with flip flops as it is long. I'm 5'5, 135 lbs, 32DDD and it fits really well in a Medium. However, I'm thinking I'll get a small just to compare as it does have some extra room to it.

Love it! I am 5'11, size 16. It fits great and looks great! Took it with me to the Dominican Republic for Spring Break and it was perfect. I am going to get another one!

Dress was really cute and a great weight to the material but the ruching really drew more attention to the stomach and was not flattering if you have a little bit of a pooch.

I wanted to love this dress but the top does not offer enough coverage/support for a large bust. Very flattering otherwise.

I love this dress in theory, but did not work for me. The shortest hem was still too long for my 5'3" frame (XS) and the top was too revealing for me.

Not wowed. Shelf bra had no support. I think these sun dresses really need the lift of a tie halter top. The routing looked cute in picture but made dress look saggy on. Too long. Returned.

I really wanted to love this dress, but I just did not. I am 5'4", about 130 pounds and a 32DDD. I bought the small, and thought the gathering in the middle would be really flattering, but it hit my body at a weird place and actually made me look really frumpy. The top of the dress above the gathering was baggy in a weird way, as if the small was actually too big - I would not dare try an XS though.

I bought this dress and was so excited to get it till the light caught it and I realized that you can see absolutely everything that you have on underneath. It is that see through. But for comfort it gets five stars. For quality it gets negative five stars. You can go to goodwill and find a dress this see thru for much less why pay this much for that cheap material. Yes, as for being breezy it certainly is that. Change your materials and I will purchase again.
