Glowing Customer Review: "The Only Slip dress is so versatile and so comfortable to wear! It is silky smooth and feels like nothing on. I have the mini and midi lengths in black and recently added the light birch colour to my collection. Happy to note that the light birch colour is lined! While it changes the “light and airy” aspect of the dress (in comparison to the unlined), it definitely adds a higher quality feel and assures that it’s not see through."
This dress is what made me fall in love with slip dresses. While it seems painfully simple, the cowl neck, strappy open back, and overall fit is *chef's kiss*. The straps are fully adjustable, and may I just say, the fabric is v flattering and lays so nicely.

Cosmo Associate Editor Siena Gagliano tried out the midi length version of this dress in a recent Quince review and raved, "I'm obsessed with the delicate lil spaghetti straps and slightly fitted waist that hugs my body in the best way.

Made of 100% mulburry silk, the dress is especially breathable and machine washable (something we all can appreciate!).

Glowing Customer Review: "Ordered this dress for a wedding...It did require a good steaming because of the fold lines from shipping. The color was exactly as described on the ad. I ordered a 3XL based on other reviews to size up two sizes and the dress fit perfect. It’s made of a silky type material so there is no stretch at all. It’s more fitting in the breast area, so if you have a bigger chest it may fit tight on top. The material is not thin or see through. The dress is a quality made dress and does not look cheap."
