Striped ruffle-shoulder dress

Adorable and perfect for summer. Love the little details and the fit is typical for J crew casual dresses. Will love wearing this this summer!

I loved this dress from the moment I saw the pictures and once ordered, it did not disappoint! I love the lightweight fabric and the sleeves. I feel that the elastic waist is slimming and flattering. I’m 5’8, 125 and ordered my usual size 2. The length is great for work or play. The striped blue is my favorite of all the colors!

I loved this dress online, and the ruffle sleeves and lower back are very cute details. The fit is really unflattering. There is far too much fabric in the chest and torso, and the elastic waistband results in a bubble fit to the top. Due to the elastic band, there’s no way to get it taken in. The dress not fit close to the body and so it doesn’t offer good waist definition. It also runs very, very large. I usually wear a 0 in JCrew Factory, but I went with the “00” and it still fits a size too big. Order at least a size smaller than your usual. JCrew, please try this style again sans elastic waist or with a smaller fit!

I walked into my local JCrew Factory and this dress was one of the first things I spotted. There were four different colors, and I had the hardest time choosing just one. I settled on the striped dress finally. It's a light and airy cotton dress. It has an elastic waist. It wrinkles a bit easily because it is cotton. I would say the quality is not the best JCrew has ever made, but the dress is lined. The ruffles make this dress perfection. The back of the dress is low, but not low enough to show bra straps. I could not tell in the fitting room if it was see-through due to the lighting, and when I wore it to church, I wore it with nude undergarments and it was not see-through. I am 5'9", 125 lbs, and I got it in a size 2. I need this dress in the blue and pink as well! It is definitely a buy.
