I wear this dress for everything (work, receptions, Saturday afternoon)! I have one in a different color and needed a second because I t is so comfortable and versatile.
I was so happy to find this dress on sale. Its my second dress in this style. Im 52 and the length is perfect. So often when there is not a petite option dresses are too long and I need to get them shortened. This dress is very comfortable and wrinkle free. Its ideal for warm summer days. Cant wait to wear it this summer.
I bought this for an upcoming trip to Mexico. The fabric is luxurious and the fit is flattering and comfortable. It'll be perfect for dinner by the beach!
Ordered this because of good sale price. Its obviously a warm weather item (its now winter and cold in NY) so I havent worn it yet. But I did try it on and like the fit and feel. Should be a versatile wardrobe piece in the spring and summer.
Unfortunately, sizing at Patagonia is all over the place and usually clothing is clearly made for skinnier women with not a lot of cleavage or hips. I ordered the XL due to this but definitely could have sized down to an L. I have DDDs but the top is still large. The sash detail is nice to hide the parts you want to but it hits slightly lower than ... Read Morewhere it should. Im using the dress as a coverup mostly for the beach since I didnt have time to order a new size. The green color is cute and the materials is nice. It dries quickly. Hopefully it will hold up at least.
Yay, Patagonia. Finally a dress I can wear that is bra-friendly and not revealing for DD chest. The fit and style is great on this dress - the waist detail just enough to make it interesting and a tad dressy. Casual enough to wear anywhere. The fabric a nice feel and drape.

Patagonia, I love you, but I challenge you to make more tops and dresses for larger boobs. I'd love to see wrap and v-neck styles that don't instantly split and reveal! Not all athletic types are small-chested, you know. Thanks!
This dress is exactly what I have been dreaming of. It's flattering, and low maintenance to bring on travel trips. I'm 5'1" 114lbs muscular thin hips. I need the waist to draw in give me a little curve on the lower half. The twist accent is perfect it highlights what you want and hides what you don't. I think it works for a...

I absolutely love this dress! I had to buy more. Material is great (smooth, doesn't wrinkle), length is perfect, and very versatile. Great for work or going out. Fixes problems I have with other Patagonia dresses that have unflattering length or I have to wear a tank under because it's too revealing. Want 10 more of these!
Packs, travels and wears well. I bought this dress for a trip to Mexico. It was pretty hot and humid but this dress held up - comfortable, wrinkles fell away. A great purchase. I highly recommend this dress.
I love love love this dress! The fit is TTS, incredibly slimming and flattering, and the material is really nice and soft to the touch. I'm 5'4", 130#, athletic build, and I purchased a size small (my standard size in Patagonia) in navy. This dress is great for work, running errands, a night on the town...basically anything you want.... Read More The neckline is a little low for professional wear (IMO), but I just wear a simple cami underneath. Problem solved. If you're on the fence, seriously buy this dress! You won't be disappointed.
Love this dress! Super cute flattering perfect length. Looks great on. Very versatile. Rode my bike in it, wore it at work. Even wore it to a casual afternoon wedding.
I love this dress! It is very flattering and the material is a very nice weight for summer. I wore this dress once so far and got so many compliments! I have an athletic build, a little broader on top, this dress fit perfectly! I’m very happy with this purchase!
This dress is really comfortable and the fit is perfect. A reviewer said the fabric is too thin, I think it’s the perfect weight - comfortable in 85 degree weather and still feel put-together. I’d highly recommend this dress!
This dress looks great on and is lightweight for travel. I’m usually a small but needed to exchange for an xsmall as the back gaped a bit and was too wide across the shoulders. I’m 5’5”, 123 lbs. I love the V back on this dress!
I love this dress, the material is perfect. I ended up exchanging it for a smaller size because the waist was a bit too baggy for my preference and I probably could go even smaller. It’s a forgiving dress for all body types in my opinion. Plenty of room for a larger chest but still would look great on a smaller one. Great job Patagonia!
This navy dress is a summer staple in my closet. The style is so feminine and the comfort is so relaxing. Going back on the site to see more color choices. You will not be disappointed.
I'm 5'4", 130 lb, and wear a 30G bra. This last part means that Patagonia dresses generally never fit me. This dress does fit – or, rather, it fits well enough. There is still some gapping at the sides of my chest/under arm.
The exposed back is nice but you have to wear your bra quite low/'properly' for it not to show. My... Read More bra band comes just to the very edge of the bottom of that open "v."
My biggest frustration is probably that the fabric at the twist area doesn't lie flat. So the seam of the top of the gathered fabric always turns out and is exposed. I've tried many times to adjust it and get it lie flat so the seam is underneath, but it never stays this way. It just doesn't look the way it should, which is frustrating for a Patagonia dress.
I like that I could wear this dress to the beach or to work (and I do) – I find it pretty versatile.
I wanted to love this dress but couldn't. The twist part fell lower than I anticipated so it wasn't as flattering as I'd hoped. The back is a bit low. In addition, the twist has some plastic component that is very uncomfortable against my skin; I ended up taping it down with medical tape to make it wearable. I did get compliments on ...

I bought this in violet blue medium. I’m 5’3” 130 and wear a S or M in most Patagonia. The fabric was soft n comfy and the color lovely, but was too thin to cover any flaws. Probably a great dress if you have a perfect figure which I don’t so back it went. Also the back of this dress was super low on me.
