Women's Plus Size Loose Cotton Linen Long Kaftan Dress with Pockets

This dress is so beautiful; I call it walking art! Of course, it is comfortable and stylish. The styling options are endless. This began as my travel dress; flight approved. I paired it with a simple pair of slip on purple sneakers, then switched to yellow sandals. I have even wore this as a dinner dress...belted, and knotted on the side to shorten paired with gold heels and accessories. It is also cute, worn barefoot hanging out in the house. Ladies, work it!!Let's get into the fit. My areas of concern with any fit are my biceps and breast (DDD, for reference), and thighs. This went over smoothly. Fyi, there is no stretch in the upper area. So I suggest ordering your true size. Once the dress began to breath on my body I could adjust the pull, to keep the neckline from riding up. Afterwards, the dress laid/remained across my bosom as clothing should. This dress is roomy/large at the waist down. It will flatter all body shapes. The shape of the hip area, gives room to the illusion of whatever God has blessed you with.Lastly, quality of fabric...machine washing, and hang dry seem optical. There was about a half of inch shrinkage from the length, no wear else. The color is still vibrant and the dress is still, cute!

absolutely love this dress I get so many compliments on it. It’s colorful and comfortable. I love that. It has pockets on the side. Only issue is that it runs tight in the chest so be sure to order half a size bigger.

I got the navy blue kimono-print version of this dress. After reading some other reviews I ordered the 4X, although I normally take a 3X in dresses. On first wearing the 4X fit fine when standing up, but started pulling in the chest area when sitting (I wear a 42 DDD bra). After washing it once it was too tight up top even when standing. But I really like the fabric, the pockets and the length... so I cut off the top just below the arms, hemmed the waist generously and added some wide elastic, and converted it into a skirt :) Now I can wear it with a comfortable knit top and still enjoy the stylish shape (it actually widens over the hips and narrows a little at the bottom) and beautiful print.However, if you want your dress to work out of the box and you have anything going in the bust area (as do most of us plus size women), I gotta say I can't recommend it. If you do decide to take the leap, I'd start with TWO sizes over your normal, and expect it to shrink.

So according to the chart and the reviews I went with a large. I am not very tall or thin, I am 5'6 I am a 36-30-40. On the top, it was a little tight across my shoulders nothing too constricting, the bust was a little snug. I small chested. So it wasn't a problem for me, i think someone who larger chested might find the top too tight. The waist was big and I think I could have gone down to a medium and been ok. The hips are big. That is why I am reluctantly returning it. I was very tempted to keep it despite the fit because the colors and patterns are absolutely gorgeous. I thought about cutting it up and using the material for something else but I have enough sewing projects. Despite the fact I am returning it, I would still recommend it. Its a very simply sewn dress, no darts, no pleats, just a straight and simple pattern and I think you need to bare that in mind when considering this dress. Because its a straight dress, it will be tight in the bust. Its beautiful and you follow the size chart you should be ok.

I am a size 0/2 (pant size) and XS/S (top size) (US sizes), 4’11” in height, 128 pounds and 32DDD in the bust. I ordered dresses like this in the past, so I didn’t pay too much attention one the “plus size” comment in the item description. I wanted something funky but cool for my trip to Cairo, Egypt to take pictures at the Gyza Pyramids. I got so many wonderful compliments from tourist and natives alike. It was great to travel in and also very comfy and stylish at the same time. It travels well too!The post says plus size, but I ordered a Medium and it fit me perfectly. Loose enough but didn’t drape over me like it was way too big. I am 4’11 and the dress stops right below my ankle and right above my converse sneakers.My favorite parts: pockets, colors, and the price!!! It washes well too, just don’t let it dry on a drying rack as to keep the colors vibrant and not let it shrink too much.Great buy...which they had more fun colors to buy.

What a gorgeous and comfortable dress! Because it is linen, it is physically heavier than cotton, but oh, so breathable. I overheat easily so comfort in warm weather is important to me. I bought XXL. I'm 5'7" and about 200 lbs, with a smaller bust and larger hips. It fits wonderfully.I'll update after washing. The instructions say machine wash and dry.A note about fit: if you have long legs and a long stride, the hem opening can be a bit restrictive when walking at a fast pace. This may not be an issue for most people and most situations. I just have to be a little more restrained while wearing it. I thought about putting a slit on the side, but that might compromise the beautiful line if the dress.Another style note: the pattern is large, and the location of motifs-- like the horizontal bars--can vary. Mine were right across my bust. Looks great!

I’m not sure if the one I received is irregular / defective or not. When I tried it on, it made my hips look ridiculously wide. My hips are no where near that wide! The dress fit me exactly the way it looks in the pic I’ve posted. The pictures other ladies have posted didn’t look like that. I’m petite, 5’2 and 135 pounds. I ordered the Small. The top fits great but the cut of the bottom of the dress seems like it belongs to an XL or XXL size. It’s too bad because I think this dress is gorgeous in other reviews.
