Promising review: "This little dress is a delightful addition to any fashion-forward wardrobe. The mini dress exudes sophistication with its deep V-neckline and charming bow tie detail, adding a touch of elegance to your ensemble. It has a pretty lightweight and breathable fabric, and it's perfect for staying cool and stylish during the warmer months. I wore this dress in white on Easter and received so many compliments! The mini length adds a flirty vibe, while the flowy silhouette ensures comfort and ease of movement. Whether you're attending a brunch with friends or a summer soirée, this dress is sure to turn heads!" —Jhawk90
Price: $19.99+ (available in 35 colors and sizes S–XL)
Promising review: "I love the way this dress fits! It's so comfortable and can be worn for so many occasions. It stretches so well in every area and looks very [awesome] on my curvy body. I also love that you can wear the shoulders in different ways. I get so many compliments on it every time I wear it. I bought two colors, and I'm planning to buy more of them in the future." —Naxhiely
Price: $40.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 34 colors)
Promising reviews: "Love the fabric, the fit, and the flowy-ness of the skirt! I got a size small in blue; it’s a tad bit long (I’m only 5'2"), but I’ll wear it with wedge sandals, so that won’t be an issue! It’s very well-sewn and such a beautiful color, and I couldn’t be happier! (I love it so much I’ve already ordered a second one in another color!) I don’t ever want to take it off!" —Jaime
"Purchased this dress for vacation. It was perfect for an evening dinner and a night out. It fit well. The back is very revealing, but was perfect for a night out. There is a drawstring in the back to allow you to either tighten or loosen the area around the waist and the back opening of the dress. The material is not heavy, nor is it too thin. Received lots of compliments." —Cassandra Vincent
Price: $36.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 27 colors)
Promising review: "I loved this and it is my current favorite dress, super comfy and great material. I was SHOCKED when I saw it. I got the pink one. I definitely recommend." —Denitsa Nikolova
Price: $38.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 11 colors)
Promising review: "I read reviews religiously, but I never write them. This dress had to be the exception! As soon as I opened it, it felt like great quality. The material is soft, the top has a gel-like hem so it doesn’t slip, and there are pockets! I’m 5’8” and got a medium! So excited to wear this for my bridal shower this summer!" —Kevin Troy Landers
Price: $36.09+ (available in 36 prints and sizes S–XXL)
Promising reviews: "I love this dress! I ordered it in the beige color first, and I absolutely love the material! It is so light and airy and flowy!" —Ironlatina
"This dress is so comfortable and worthy of dinner out, a stroll on the beach, perfect for the campsite, strolling the park, grocery store, you name it! Everywhere I go, people comment on it! I ordered another color for myself and another green one for a gift. Absolutely love this dress! You may want to go down a size from the recommended size, but I like the extra fluff in the skirt with the larger size." —Ruthi the artist
Price: $25.49+ (available in sizes S–XL and 35 colors)
Promising reviews: "Bought this dress because I always wanted to get the House of CB dress, but didn’t want to pay over $250 for it. It’s honestly so good! I got the size large in this since they didn’t have my normal sizes, which are small to medium (I have a bigger chest, so I tend to size up). But since this has a corset back, I was able to cinch it up really tight, and it fit perfectly!" —Chris Herfurth Kennedy
"This dress is absolutely beautiful — it fits perfectly, and is a comfortable light fabric. I wore it to my engagement shoot!" —lomalley
Price: $62.99 (available in 23 colors/prints and sizes 0–16)
Promising reviews: "Dress for many occasions. Wore to a baby shower and received many compliments. It’s flowy and can be easily styled with sneakers, sandals, or high-heeled boots. I’m in the season of multipurposing my wardrobe, and this dress can be paired in the winter, too. Worth the money! Sometimes with these dresses, the top halter can be either too small or big, so I recommend getting true to size." —Delors
"This dress is super comfy, light, and airy without being see-through. It washes well, does not shrink, and I never need to iron it." —Cheryl
Price: $29.99+ (available in 19 colors/prints and sizes XS–XXL)
Promising review: "This dress appears way more expensive than the listing. It reminded me of something you’d find in a boutique. I wore this dress for my bridal shower, and it was so comfortable! The dress is true to size, and perfect for coverage when sitting (opening presents, etc). I highly recommend." —Amazon Customer
Price: $36.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 12 colors)
Promising review: "I really love this romper. It looks more like a dress than a romper, which I prefer. It fits like a glove, and you can tie the straps as loose or as tight as you would like. I ended up getting the burgundy one instead of the green that I’ve seen everyone post about, but I really love the burgundy as the color goes well with my skin tone. Living in a hot environment like Arizona makes you want to wear less. This romper is definitely comfortable, and the material is light and soft to wear throughout the day. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a nice romper." —Nafisa K.
Price: $29.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 12 colors)
Promising review: "YALL!! THIS OUTFIT IS SOOOO CUTE! The material is breathable, so you don't have to worry about being hot if you're in extreme HOT temperatures! Love it! Get it, sis! I'm about to get one in each color because I love it so much!" —Ololade
Price: $48.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 35 colors)
Reviewers say this dress is form-fitting, so if you want a looser fit, size up!
Promising review: "Seriously, the softest dress ever! I probably could have sized down, but I like a looser fit. I needed a dress that was long enough to wear to work, and that is what I got with this dress. And it has pockets, which is a huge bonus!!! I actually am going to buy more in different colors!" —Lnt7
Price: $25.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 26 colors)
Promising review: "I put this dress on and immediately fell in love. As soon as I took it out of the bag, I was impressed with the quality. The dress is double-lined, so no issues with it being see-through. It has a zip-up smocked back, which allows for some stretch. I will wear it on the shoulder, but the elastic also allows you to wear it off the shoulder. I had the sleeves pushed up, but they were long enough to reach my wrists. It fit great and was a good length. Definitely recommend this dress!" —Lindsey
Price: $34.39+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 15 colors)
Reviewers agree that if you want it fitted, size down.
Promising reviews: "I saw this girl wearing this exact style of dress with a Skims tag on the back, and honestly, it made me so grateful that I purchased this dress instead. It looks exactly like the Skims version, and I could be biased, but the material of this dress looked better than the Skims one. If you want it to be a little snug, I would definitely recommend sizing down one size from your normal size. So freaking comfortable and made out of thick material." —Kaitlyn
"This was purchased to add to my summer dresses. I recently bought one in brown and loved it. So I had to get it in this purple /lavender color. Material's just as good and thick, all while being form-fitting and going to my ankles. It's still breathable, and I could move around without worrying about anything coming loose. I love that even though it was a lighter color, you couldn't see what I was wearing underneath. Perfect. I receive compliments all the time in this dress, even from toddlers. Even they know a great look when they see it. Haha. 😊" —Roxi Roxx
Price: $24.99 (available in sizes XXS–L and two colors)
Promising review: "I’d been looking for a Skims alternative — I have the Skims dress, love it, and wanted it in another color. I’m so very happy with my purchase! Literally half the price of Skims and it's identical! If you’ve tried the Skims dress, go ahead and order, you won’t be disappointed!" —Savvychique
Price: $25.49+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and nine colors)
Promising review: "I liked this dress so much I bought it in a second color. To be honest, it's probably not my last one. I'm definitely thinking about ordering a few more. This dress is so easy to throw on and dress up or down, depending on how you style it. I love the loose, comfy fit. It's already got a slightly oversized feel to it, so don't worry about sizing up. It's perfect as is." —Cristina Thrower
Price: $38.94+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 28 colors)
Reviewers say it generally runs true to size but is a bit on the looser side.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly (pictured right) actually owns and loves this dress: "I packed it for Italy knowing that I'd be going in lots of churches and religious sites that require having your shoulders and knees covered, and I pulled it off with this by merely slipping the sleeves up higher. But I owned this dress months before I touched down in Rome and have been racking up compliments from strangers on the streets of NYC thanks to this frock. ('Thanks! It's from Amazon!') It washes well, is super lightweight, and very easy to wear with a regular bra. The only thing it *doesn't* have is pockets. But I'll make an exception for this comfy beaut."
Promising review: "So happy with my purchase! I received many compliments when wearing this dress, and it makes sense, because it’s lovely! It’s super comfortable too. It’s beautiful to wear out but also comfortable enough to wear around the house. It’s just as beautiful on the shoulder, though I prefer it off, but the great thing is that it stays put whichever way you should to wear it. I highly recommend it!" —Melanie Grace
Price: $32.29+ (available in sizes XS–XL and seven colors)
Promising review: "This dress is so beautiful and comfortable. The dress billows, it flows nicely, it doesn't bunch up, it doesn't get stuck or ride or pinch or bind. It flows so nicely. It's the most comfortable dress I have ever had. I love the sleeves...way better than the dresses with the longer sleeves (which are too tight). The fabric is beautiful. One person liked it so much, she bought one for herself." –LJ
Price: $29.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 41 prints)
Promising review: "Great dress! Fits to size. It’s not tight at all. It flows nicely and fits perfectly. The material is not too thin or too thick. I ordered the black dress and it’s not see-through at all. I will be buying more colors. It’s super comfy too. I will most likely hand-wash as well. Definitely a nice dress for summer." –Niki Josephsen
Price: $14.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 29 colors and patterns)
Promising review: "I absolutely love this dress! The material is perfect for me because it's not too thick but not flimsy at all. I could wear it here almost every season except for the summer. It will look great with boots or pumps, and it's long enough that I can wear it to work. It fits exactly as pictured and is true to size." —Aneglic_KR
Price: $13.60+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 26 colors)
Promising review: "It's stunning, breathtaking, and beautiful. It was love at first sight when I saw it. It's worth every penny! It makes you feel like a goddess! I got all the compliments! I'm definitely buying this dress in different prints. 🥰" —Kia Howard
Price: $53.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 11 colors)
Promising review: "Absolutely love this dress! The gold metallic fabric is even prettier in person; it has such a beautiful shimmer and moves perfectly with every step. The fit is comfortable, and the one-shoulder style gives it a really elegant look. I wore it to an event and got so many compliments! It looked high-end and photographed beautifully. Definitely a great choice if you want something classy that still stands out!" —Samantha
Price: $54.99 (available in sizes S–4XL and five colors)
Promising review: "I’m completely obsessed with this women’s bodycon maxi dress! This long-sleeve, floral print dress is an absolute stunner — perfect for fall or spring vibes. I wore it to a Kacey Musgraves concert in Nashville when she opened The Pinnacle, the newer venue there, and it was a total hit! For reference, I’m 6’3, so it’s not quite a maxi on me — more like a chic midi length — but I actually love how it looks. The quality is fantastic, and it’s so versatile for parties, clubs, or any stylish event. I’ve already gotten tons of compliments, and I can’t recommend this dress enough!" —Ree
Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 20 patterns).
Promising review: "This dress is super gorgeous and totally worth the money! TikTok made me buy it, and it was on sale, so even better. The fabric is also really good quality." —Melanie
Price: $28.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in 16 colors and patterns)
Promising review: "Such a great dress that can be dressed down with sneakers/sandals or dressed up with wedges/block heels. I got the medium and loved the kelly green color!" —Amanda
Price: $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and in 24 colors)
Promising review: "This dress is perfect. So feminine, so fun, so cute! The fabric is really nice, flowier than I thought, and it just fits really well." —Eugenia Trujillo
Price: $28.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and eight colors/prints).
Promising review: "I absolutely love this denim shirtdress from Zilcremo! It’s the perfect mix of casual and trendy. The distressed details add just the right amount of edge without going overboard, and the button-down design gives it a versatile feel — I can wear it as a dress, layer it over leggings, or even style it open as a tunic over a tank top and shorts.
"The denim is soft and not too heavy, making it comfortable for all-day wear. I also love the slightly oversize fit — it gives that relaxed, lived-in look. The length is perfect for pairing with boots or sneakers, and the long sleeves can be rolled up for a more laid-back vibe.
"Overall, it’s a stylish, easy-to-wear piece that works great for brunch, errands, casual Fridays, or even dressed up with accessories for a night out. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a go-to denim piece with personality!" —StyleWithPaws
Price: $39.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 21 washes)
A bunch of reviewers wore this dress to the Bridgerton Ball Experience!
Promising review: "Absolutely gorgeous dress! I got so many compliments wearing this! My goal was to be fairy-like, and I crushed the vision with this dress. The corset back is great, even my husband was able to help me do it. The sleeves were a bit loose, even after I tried to shorten the strap part, but honestly loved the look either on my shoulders or off them!" —Becca L
Price: $54.99+ (available in 2–26 and 45 styles)
The styles include various hem lengths, sleeve lengths, and colors.
Promising review: "I bought this dress for a wedding, and in usual internet-fashion panic, I bought it a size larger, since I could fix it if it was too large... Not only did it fit beautifully, I realized that since the bodice was structured like a corset, I should have just bought [my usual size] so it could hold breasts properly...It's made with great material, the whole thing fits and feels like a dream, and isn't heavy at all. It looked amazing out of the box and was worth every cent I paid. Definitely buying another dress from this seller." —Vivian Nguyen
Price: $62.99 (available in sizes 2–26 and in 28 colors)
Promising review: "I really, really love this dress. It feels like good quality. You can't see-through it, and it has weight to it, so I'm not worried about it lifting up in the wind, lol. Very comfy, I recommend and will be considering different colors in the future. Belt is optional." —Jae Clough
Price: $34.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and in 43 colors/prints)
Promising review: "This dress is comfortable. The fabric and cut allow for versatility, are thick enough, and have enough stretch to dance the night away. I opted for an off-the-shoulder look. I'm 5'11" and was able to pull off a low heel, and the dress was still long enough." —madii
Price: $54.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and 10 colors)
Promising review: "The dress has become one of my favorites! The fabric is lightweight but drapes well. It is perfect for casual occasions and can easily be worn to more dressy events. The perfect dress to go from the office to date night. You can’t go wrong with this dress." —Carolyn
Price: $18.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and in 21 patterns/solid colors)
