Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's. Promising review: "This dress was FIRE! The wait staff, guests, and strangers were complimenting me. I have never felt so confident! I am definitely going to buy it in another color!" —Kayla Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in women's sizes L–4X and 20 colors) Promising review: "GORGEOUS. Will wear this for my niece's rehearsal dinner in the Bahamas...I like the weight of the fabric versus the cheap, flimsy see-through fabric we see a lot of. Also, the skirt portion is cut on a bias, which is very [nice]... If you’re petite, order a petite. It’s asymmetrical, so one side is like a maxi and the other to the knee or midi. Love it and can’t wait to wear it!" —AngelaRegina Get it from Anthropologie for $248 (available in sizes 0/XXS–26W/3X and in standard, petite, and plus fits). Promising review: "I will be buying this dress again in different colors! This dress was so pretty and good quality, too. Have worn it several times and received tons of compliments! You can dress up with heels or dress down with sneakers. Such a great summer/springtime dress!" —Danielle Sharp Furlow Get it from Amazon for $27.06 (available in sizes S–XL and 12 styles). Tons of reviewers praised this dress for being a great option during pregnancy! Promising review: "Super cute for my baby shower and comfortable too (which is the most important). I’m 5’3 and wear small heels. I thought the dress length was perfect, but it would look just as good on a taller or shorter person. I got lots of compliments! I’ll wear this post-baby, too!" —JP Get it from Amazon for $52.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 10 styles). Promising review: "This dress is perfect for the brunch girlies AND the expecting mamas. Used this for my gender reveal and couldn’t have been more comfortable or felt more cute." —Rachel Dunn Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in sizes S–2XL and five styles). Promising review: "Love this midi/maxi off-the-shoulder ruffle dress; it's perfect for spring, summer, and vacations! I personally would style it up for summer weddings, too! The fit is great [and] the ruffle is definitely trending, highly recommend." —Nikita C. Get it from Amazon for $29.98+ (available in sizes S–L and five colors/styles). Promising review: "I am really happy with this dress for the price. The fabric is thin, lightweight, and cool. I got the blue background with the apricot and gold paisley print. It's beautiful. The fit is good. Accentuates the bust without being revealing, and the elastic ruching around the midriff adds shape. The skirt flares out nicely into soft drapes. You can wear the sleeves up on your shoulder for a small cap sleeve or drop them off your shoulders for a more romantic look. You could dress this up with some jewelry and a wrap for an outdoor summer wedding, or pop on a straw hat and sandals and head for the farmer's markets." —Mary Anne Mong Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes S–2XL and 38 styles).

The fabric is of good quality and lined. The back is stretchy as well.

Eighty-seven percent of their workers are women and they ensure ethical factory working conditions. Get it from Simple Retro for $65 (available in sizes XS–XL). Promising review: "Ethereally beautiful!! This dress is absolutely LOVELY. It’s so lightweight, breezy, and comfortable. It fits perfectly, and the bodice has plenty of stretch, so you could go either way if you’re in between sizes. I sized down because I wanted to wear it on the shoulders and didn’t want the sleeves slipping off, but I didn’t have an issue with that. It’s wrinkly when it arrives, but a quick steam makes it look so much nicer and more expensive than it is. I got the sage green color, and it’s not see-through; it’s beautiful. (I actually returned it in favor of a color I thought I’d wear more, but if green is your fave, then you’ll love it). Get this dress!" —Laura Get it from Amazon for $40.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 30 colors). Rebdolls is a woman-owned small business started by Dominican Republic–born model Grisel Paula. Get it from Rebdolls for $64.90 (available in sizes 2–32 and two styles). Promising review: "I have been wanting this same dress from a store in the mall, but it was $118. I was leery about this, since it was much cheaper, but it is PERFECT! It fit absolutely perfectly. Great length, too. Keep in mind you can't wear a bra with it, and if you are larger-busted (I'm small, an A cup), then it may fit totally differently. It's thin and lightweight, but with skin-colored undies, I had no problem with lines or visibility. I'm considering buying it in another color." —Bullitt02797 Get it from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 24 colors). This is my go-to look for anything and everything. I feel super comfortable in them and, honestly, like a princess! I get tons of compliments whenever I wear them (a little flattery never hurt anybody), and I'm sure I'll convince myself to order yet another one for this summer. I've even bought a few for my daughter (and will continue to buy her one every year for her birthday until she begs me not to). They're perfect for special and everyday occasions! Promising review: "The Ellie Nap Dress is perfection! After about a year of Instagram telling me I needed a Nap Dress, I finally took the leap after having an emergency appendectomy. The dress was so comfy for recovery...and just about everything else! I own about a dozen of them now (and counting...). I've worn my Ellies for napping (duh), to work basically every day, out for girls' night, around the town in NYC, on airplanes, on the beach in Aruba, etc. It's perfect for just about any occasion, and SO, SO comfortable!" —Michelle Get it from Hill House Home for $178+ (available in sizes 2XS–2XL and 29 styles). If this isn't your style you can shop the same print in a variety of other dresses! Get it from Birdy Grey for $109 (available in sizes XS–3X and 52 styles).
