Customer Reviews Sweaty Betty Explorer Ace Midi Dress

I bought this for a summer dress, a general wear through the day on warm days or on holiday. However, it is quite see through, especially the sides. The fabric wasn't as I expected, more of a workout vest fabric. The length wasn't flattering on me, falling at the widest part of my calves at the front. I wouldn't feel comfortable going out in this so I returned, but the fit was good. Size medium and I'm a 12/14.

Last minute holiday needed a last minute lightweight dress and THIS is it!! Comfy, flattering and packs well! Perfect for sunset cocktails! It is loose, so I downsized for a more fitted style!

I ordered this in black after trying the blue on in store. It is the most perfect dress. I can't wait to take it on holiday next month - it'll be great for day trips and wearing in the evening and then I'm planning on wearing it with my biker jacket at home.

Absolutely love this dress, purchased it for holiday and could have packed only this. It was great to throw on snd to dress up. The fabric is lovely and light and easy to clean and dry if needed. The shape is super flattering too

Really pleased with this dress. Feels lovely on and very flattering. I'm 5'3 and weigh 8st 12lb. The XXS fits me perfect. Lovely length too.

This is a technical fabric, so is perfect for throwing on over wet swimwear in hot weather when it's time for lunch!

I can't wait for the weather to improve so I can wear my dress! It's lightweight, comfortable and a flattering shape highly recommend.

I've bought this for holiday but it's amazing in every way I can see it being worn for all sorts. Lush fabric, beautiful cut. Looks so good with a denim jacket! I'm an 8/10 and bought XS and it's perfect

The material is soft and so lightweight. Simple and effortless. Just need some warm weather so I can wear it more!

Bought an XXS and and an XS. Usually a S in leggings but find tops, some jackets and dresses run large on me. Both sizes fit, but I felt the SX gave me a little more room. It is a great length even on short folks...I am 5 2.

Haven't actually worn this dress yet due to the English weather! I also got a size smaller than i normally would (XS, I'm a size 8 and 5'4") it looks lovely on it is quite long at the back, but i think it adds to the style. The material is quite thin, but would be great for travelling around hot places, just roll it up! Wish I'd had it on my holidays this year!!

I love this dress as it's lightweight and a flattering design - washes brilliantly and no need to iron.it's a wardrobe staple

Id had my eye on this for a while.... why did I hesitate, not a clue. This is the best comfiest dress ever!!! I will be buying another. More colours please, maybe a nice coral colour?? Im 5ft 2in (short!) a size 10 and ordered a small... perfect!!!

Just received this item and was disappointed to have to send it back. I got a size XS and found the arm holes were way too big and no matter what kind of sports bra I wear underneath, a large portion of it shows. Moving down to an XXS would likely be too tight around the waist/hips. For reference, I'm an athletic build woman with 5'4 height and bra size 32B. I wear size 6 in Lululemon clothes and XS or S for most mainstream US brands. Other than the arm hole issue, the cut of the dress is beautiful and the length is perfect. The fabric is super soft for the performance quality it is. Unfortunately, I just couldn't spend this much money on a dress that wasn't perfect.

I love the dress! The fabric is very lightweight and it doesn't s crease. The dress is super comfortable. I pair it with trainers or sandals and tops. Very easy to wear.

I took this Explorer Ace to India and it was perfect, so cool and so comfortable. I was asked where it came from on a few occasions.

This is hands down my favorite dress. It dresses up, it dresses down, I get complements all the time. It's airy, yet feels graceful and well- constructed. It's graphic, yet has beautiful lines. have multiples in black, including the shorter version, and the light green. Friends have bought it after seeing how well it travels for the weekend. Im 5'5, 155 lbs, 34F, with muscle and curves. The XS fits perfectly and I wear an S when I want something even flowier. I do wish SB would make it it some non-pastel or non-neon colors. I would snap up forest green, scarlet, etc.

Lightweight, cool and quick drying dress is perfect for throwing on over a damp swimsuit and looks stylish

Great comfy dress up dress down perfect for travel

Lovely dress, looks great on. The material is perfect for hot weather countries and the cut is low under the arms so no problem with sweat. I bought the dress for travel, it is super light and packs down well.

Fantastic dress for summer, especially holidays. It looks great, weighs nothing, doesn't crease and feels cool and totally comfortable. Have ordered in the red shade too!
