This is very cute. I got it in the Sparkling Blue, which isn't too obnoxious (like some of the very bold Lilly Pulitzer colors). The styling is very cute and I liked the fit (true to size). But it was just too short for me. I'm 5'4"and the bottom hit my leg a little bit higher than shown on the model wearing this color. If you look at the model in the Indigo color and see where the dress hits on her leg, that will give you an idea. I just assumed it would be a little longer on me than on a tall model. So if you don't mind short or if you're shorter than I am, go for it! I really wished it were a couple of inches longer--I really liked it.

This dress is so super cute, perfect for hot summer time. I bought the dress as a swim cover-up, but it can also be worn for Errands and a casual lunch. I think it's a bit overpriced, and it also resembles a pretty nightgown. I wish the colors were a little brighter.

I like the print but it reminds me too much of a night gown. It'll be returned for something else Lilly.

I did not care for this print, also the dress just kind of hangs like a bag or something. Not flattering. I tried sizing down but then it gets too tight around the sleeve openings rubbing my underarm uncomfortably. BUT it is the most comfortable dress ever (think nightgown) its really soft and thin and I like the buttons. Returned it.

This fit perfectly, but the colors were not as shown in the picture. They were neon, and the coral looked like handprints. I had to return.

I ended up returning this. I found it to be very thin and felt uncomfortable wearing it. I almost felt as though I should be wearing a slip. It does run a bit big, I ordered a medium which I usually wear, tried a small too and that fit better.

Should have known this dress would be much brighter than what is shown online. It was very comfortable but unflattering on me. The fit was off. I'm petite and even the xsmall was wal too baggy looking.

Very flattering on me (I am 5'9", 150# and carry weight in my midsection) perfect for after the beach and can be dressed up a bit with some cute shoes and a necklace! I have several of these and they are my go-to especially on hot summer days!

This dress can be worn all year. When it's colder it can be worn with a cardigan, or a cardigan with leggings. I love this dress!! It will last 20 years, thick material, and great quality. Fun, vibrant Patterns.

LOVE this dress - I've pretty much been living in it all summer. It's incredibly comfy and can be dressed down/up depending on accessories (I've worn it with cute shoes and a little jacket to dress it up, or just with casual flipflops to dress it down). Love the pattern too - I went with the Sparkling Blue and while it's kind of bright (aka Lilly fabrics in general), it's not too neon/in-your-face like some other patterns can be. I kind of wish it had maybe one more button at the top to cover up the girls a bit more, but it's definitely not risque or anything as is. Highly recommend!

Colors in this dress are gorgeous! Very flattering fit, especially the neckline. Perfect for throwing on for dinner after a day at the beach or on the water.

I think this dress is cute but the fabric is thin. It feels more like a casual pool dress which is probably what I’ll use it for, but not what i thought it would be.
