“This dress is the perfect wedding guest dress,” wrote one five-star reviewer. “I’m large chested, and it gave me plenty of support even when I didn’t wear a bra.” Another shopper attested to the support and comfort of the dress, saying, “I was surprised at how great the fit was! It was light and airy but also comfortable…and I was moving a lot. I also got so many compliments on it, and a ton of my friends and family wanted the link to purchase!”

The maxi dress is made from an easy-to-wear fabric makeup of 97 percent polyester and 3 percent elastane, so it’ll feel lightweight and breezy to wear even on hot days.

“I wanted something fresh and modern but not too funky since I am 68 years old,” wrote one shopper who wore the dress while traveling with their grandchildren and said that “the material is light and easily packable as well.” A different reviewer shared, “This has to be by far my favorite dress I have bought from Amazon. I wore it to an event, and the amount of comments I got on it was crazy.”
