Q: Does this dress run big? Should I get a smaller size? I wear an xlg normally

submitted by Candi - 6 months ago
  • A: Yes the dress runs big. The best bet is to find your size on the size chart looking at bust and waist. Then size down one size for sure. I normally wear an XL but got a Large and it was a good fit.

    submitted bySJD2024 - 3 months ago
  • A: I normally wear a 2XL/20 and the XXL dress, which is labeled as a size 17, fits me perfectly so I would say it probably is running larger.

    submitted bySandysPOV - 5 months ago
  • A: I would size down. I'm usually a L and the M was still a bit large but I went with that.

    submitted bybetterccme - 6 months ago
  • A: Am 5'5 and 117, small framed and I took XS- it has an oversized look, dropped shoulders but it should fit loose.

    submitted bySAF - 4 months ago
  • A: I'm usually a L/XL and bought a medium in the white. I would size down, especially if you are more petite (I'm 5'4").

    submitted bytwilk4 - 2 months ago

Q: Is the white very see through?

submitted by Michelle - 6 months ago
  • A: it's a bit see through. If you have black underwear it shows faintly

    submitted byLKM - 5 months ago
  • A: Yes it is a see thru dress and would need a slip. The material is great but it is a summer dress so on the sheer side. Love this dress.

    submitted bySJD2024 - 3 months ago
  • A: I just got it, took XS and it works with an 18" nude slip I have, so that it is above the side slits. I would not feel comfortable without a slip and I feel it lays better as it is somewhat sheer.

    submitted bySAF - 4 months ago
  • A: Hi Michelle - Thank you for showing interest in this product. I would request you to have a look through the images and reviews uploaded by our other guests on the product description page to have a better understanding. This collared long-sleeve maxi shirtdress is 80% cotton, 20% recycled cotton & boasts an elasticized waist for a gorgeous fit, while side slits add pretty movement as you take on the day. Hope this helps! - Kris

Q: Does thids dress require ironing? Does it shrink when washed?

submitted by amie - 8 months ago
  • A: I just got it and always wash before wearing, I am hand washing in cold water, drip dry, but I love an ironed crisp cotton, so definitely for me.

    submitted bySAF - 4 months ago
  • A: It you put this in the dryer, it will both shrink and wrinkle.

    submitted bySBHS - 3 months ago
  • A: Hello Amie - We appreciate you interest in this Women's Long Sleeve Cinch Waist Maxi Shirtdress. Please follow the care instructions to minimize any shrinkage. It does not have a wrinkle resistant finish. We know you will enjoy it. - Shane

    submitted byShane - 8 months ago

  • A: If casual is not for you, then it will require ironing. I am good with just ironing the collar and button placket. White and white w/ green are also a heavier mor casual material.

    submitted byWBGM - 7 months ago

Q: Is this maternity friendly to wear as a coverup for the beach? Reviews say the size chart is super useless so I’m not sure where to begin to accommodate my belly!

submitted by Piff - 4 months ago
  • A: First, the waist is NOT elasticized! You can pull the ties on either side to make looser or tighter. I would think if you bought a larger size it would be great as cover-up, can leave un-buttoned also

    submitted bySAF - 4 months ago
  • A: Hi Piff - Thank you for showing interest in this product. On the product details page on target.com; model in the images wears a size XS and is 5'10". This should give you a fair idea and you can check out the size chart for additional reference. This collared long-sleeve maxi shirtdress boasts an elasticized waist for a gorgeous fit, while side slits add pretty movement as you take on the day. Hope this helps! - Kris

Q: Is the drawstring functional?

submitted by Wiscanny - 5 months ago
  • A: It is functional on the sides. It does not go all the way around the body.

    submitted byMaeBee - 3 months ago
  • A: Hi Wiscanny - Thank you for your interest in the Women's Long Sleeve Cinch Waist Maxi Shirtdress. The drawstring is perfectly functional. Happy shopping! - Emma

Q: The listing for this both states that it's made of 20% recycled cotton and 20% recycled polyester. Which material is it made of?

submitted by Jo - 6 months ago
  • A: No one at Target seems to edit the site. Under fit it states all “ cotton” and under ‘at a glance’ says “polyester”. I received the white dress and the tag says” 100% cotton ( 20% recycled cotton) the blue and white striped tag just says 100% cotton and does feel a bit more substantial

    submitted bySAF - 4 months ago
  • A: Hi Jo - Thank you for your interest in the item. The dress is made up of 100% Cotton. - Faith

    The color is perfection! This dress is modest but the sheerness adds some spicy to it, making it perfect for a casual cute look or a beach cover as it’s also very lightweight. I need to get it on all the colors. I went for a L vs an XL and that works great for me

    So comfortable for summer! I love the front-side cinching detail - it helps to give a flowy dress a little more shape & interest. It’s one of my summer go-tos! Works well as a beach cover-up too.

    Obsessed and plan to buy more. I have the green stripe. Perfect for hot summer days when you want sun protection, whether for beach cover up or dinner. It’s versatile and comfy and the fabric is thick enough to feel substantial. I have a large bust and am 5’5” ~150 lbs and the M fit well once I cinched it. I could also probably do a S. Yes, it’s oversized, but it’s chic and I always get compliments. Plus it has pockets!

    I finally took the plunge on this dress after considering it all summer. The reviews were all over the place. Size DOWN TWO sizes from your normal Target size and you will get a great fit and length. I am 5’2, normally and XL and took the medium. It’s very polished and cute if you can get the right fit.

    CP - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
    Yes, it runs big, but I knew that so I sized down 2 sizes. It’s lightweight and stylish so great for summer. My biggest problem is even when tied in a bow, the drawstring at waist gets swallowed into the middle. I don’t know if the opening is too big on my particular dress or if others had the same problem. And when unable to cinch the waist, it looses a lot of shape.

    Qzie - 2 months ago
    I read lots of the reviews, but blind bought it and wore it to a lady lunch an hour later. I got XL, but could have gone with L. I’m large busted and always worry about a shirt dress and it was plenty roomy without being too oversized. BUT, the best part about this dress is the cinching on the sides, you can cinch it in for a more fitted look. I’m 5’5” and it goes to my ankles with the side cinches pulled, probably would not work for a shorter person? It would be too long? I got several compliments! I got the tan striped one, the white was appealing but it looked pretty sheer. I wore it with platform espadrilles and it was very cute. Also perfect for a nearly 100 degree day with matching humidity. And…it was $35. This dress delivers for the price for sure.

    I ordered the white a size down and it was still way too big for what I was going for. Not to mention on the sheerer side. Could have easily worked as a cover up but that wasn't what I wanted this time around. Returning this one.

    Saspenc1 - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I have this dress in white and LOVE the drape and fit of it. The fabric is super soft, thick yet lightweight and feels like an expensive fabric. The contents of my white dress are 80% cotton, 20% recycled cotton as this description says online. I loved the white dress so much I bought the blue striped one, but the feel of the fabric is SO different - feels so cheap, scratchy and thin. The contents of the blue striped one is 100% cotton - no recyced cotton. I'm returning the blue striped one. Please be consistent with the fabrics you use!

    I purchased pink in medium, at 150 lbs, 5’5. I didn’t buy it to wear as a dress, but to cover skimpy house clothes when I need to go outdoors to walk my dog or as a morning robe when I’m lounging on the deck drinking coffee or after a shower as a cover up. I love it for these purposes. If I needed to however I could run errands in it although it’s a little long on me, hits my ankles.

    A bit big but really cute. Normally I’m a S or M and the XS fit a big loose but it has adjustable straps at the waist. Worse this on our summer Spain trip and it was perfect for the hot weather. Kept me cool as the material is thin but not see through.
