birthday dress

I ordered this dress to wear on a cruise. We are taking for my birthday. It is definitely lightweight and it is definitely a tad sheer as the other reviewer mentioned. I plan to wear nude underwear and pasties underneath it. It's also a bit much for what it is. Should I keep it probably not I should...

I was so excited to get this dress. I ordered it in both colors because the athleta closest to me closed and i dont have a store within driving distance. the cream one was completely see through with nothing underneath. i thought it was advertised as being a bra top dress, but theres no support what...

This dress is gorgeous. I'm 5'5, 147 , 36DD and the medium was perfect EXCEPT, if your a bigger busted woman there is not enough material to cover on the sides. You have to pull the dress up and back but who wants to keep doing that? I have this issue with Athleta dresses a lot. The employee that was helping me said she had the same problem. Really wanted this dress! Come on Altheta, help us big boobed women out! Tailor the top half of the dress to accually cover everything.

Beautiful dress but....

The dress is beautiful and would have been perfect for an upcoming family beach photo session, however, I have to agree with one of the other reviewers in that the built in "shelf bra" does not serve a purpose. The sheerness of the fabric coupled with the light color becomes an issue that could have easily been solved by either inserting a solid shelf bra that could also include slits for additional padding. I considered taking the dress to a tailor to have a bra built in, but between the cost of the dress and tailor expenses it would not be a worthy spend.

Fabulous & easy to throw on

I'm 5'7, 120 lbs. I bought this in small. I think it runs a tiny bit big but still looks beautiful on. The black is not see through. 34A/B and don't need a bra. Wore it today and got stopped FOUR times. I bought the black plisse skirt in a medium. Love both.

Bummed After Washing

I should have looked more closely at the stitching. I got this dress in black and I love it but after washing all the beautiful pleating is gone and its just an over-priced black sheet.

The cream is completely see theough as others have noted and there are no bra insert pads like the description says. It also came with a black stain despite being brand new. Big sad fail all around, bummed because it had potential to be a beautiful dress.

Bought my usual size (normally 5'6" 120) and this fits great for late summer third trimester. Normally small chested and that hasn't changed. I do wish there were slits for cups. Bought in black bc I was worried about the white being see-thru.

It really is featherweight - light and flowy. Petites, it will come to your ankles - no idea why Athleta didn't seem to give, or even know, the length of the regular or the petite - even customer service didn't know and didn't seem to think it was a reasonable question. Also why no XXS in petite, where your most likely to have women looking for a small size? 5 star dress, 1 star for Athleta HQ.

Love this so much!

This dress is beautiful. It drapes perfectly and is great quality. I bought a tall because I wanted it to be longer. Can be dressed up or down. I bought it to wear to a wedding in September. It's that good. Fabric is not cheap looking at all.

Grogeous & flattering, but a couple of improvements needed

I bought this dress in black and it is so chic and true to size/may run slightly large - im typically a medium or large in Athleta dresses and needed the medium in this one. I wish the built in shelf bra had padding or at a minumum a slit to insert pads! Why have a built in bra when you still have to wear one to cover the nipples?! I also loved the cream color in this dress, but it is completely see-through, so a slip would be required - why not make this one double-layered?

Nice idea but needs better fit design and materials

The shape of this dress interested me and it could have a lot of potential but it's cheaply made. The top of the dress needs better construction. I'm a 32D and ordered an XS. It fit horribly on top with thin material and a too thin razorback. I have a lot of Athlete items and quality has never been an issue in the past. This is too expensive for what it is.
