Promising review: "I wore this to an outdoor wedding on a hot day, and it could not have been more perfect. It does run smaller than you think. It came wrinkled (of course), but with a very light ironing, it was an easy fix. Even though I had to go up sizes, it was not too long. While the fabric is perfect because it is so light, it is see-through, so I had to wear a slip with it. It was comfortable to wear all day and looked great in pictures because it was so flowy. To be honest, I'm trying to resist buying the same dress in every color. I love it!" —Sherie W.

Price: $42.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in nine colors/ patterns).

Promising review: "This dress was a last-minute purchase for my cousin's wedding, and it was beautiful! It fit great, and I got lots of compliments all night. It was easy to dance in. The fabric is heavy enough that it didn't wrinkle in my bag traveling to the wedding, and it does not show undergarments. Loved being able to wear a normal bra under a dress to a wedding. Would buy again in other colors, and will definitely be wearing this one again!" —Smc6288

Price: $37.39+ (available in sizes XS–24 and 30 colors)

Promising review: "I bought this for my little brother's wedding, and it was very pretty but more importantly...SO COMFY! Now it's in the church outfit rotation." —Katy Perdue

Price: $31.90 (available in sizes S–XL and 24 colors)

Promising review: "Love this dress! It fit perfectly! I wore it to a wedding and got lots of compliments. This hit about 2 inches below the knee. Buttons stayed closed and no gaps at the bust. The material has a little give but keeps its shape. Thinking of buying again in different colors!" —Yoli D.

Price: $34.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 19 colors)

Promising review: "I am so very happy with this dress. I wore it to a friend's wedding and got so many compliments! It fits as expected per the size chart, but since the back is ruched elastic with a corset-type tie, you can adjust this to your liking. I had to cinch it pretty tight to keep it from sliding down my back (maybe some fabric tape would help). That said, I would NOT size down, as then it wouldn't fit in the waist. This dress offers great coverage in the back despite being a halter (I am wary of halter tops as they seem to have absurdly low backs, but not this one). I did wear this dress with a petticoat, but it can be worn without. It is well-made and a good medium-thick material, but still breathable for warmer weather." —Lauren R.

Price: $27.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 43 colors/patterns)

Promising review: "I purchased this as a last-minute dress for a wedding. It was snug above the waist, but not snug enough where I was uncomfortable or have no movement. It fit perfectly!! The material is not cheap, it’s a nice, soft material, and you can have confidence it won’t fall apart in the washer or anything! Love it. I’ll probably buy another one in a different pattern." —Liz Garcia

Price: $33.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and 29 patterns)

Promising review: "I bought this dress to wear for my brother’s wedding, and it did not disappoint! I wore it all day, as I ran around organizing, and it was so comfortable. The pockets were amazing, and the material is so soft! I would definitely buy one of these dresses again!" —Callie

Price: $24.64+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 59 patterns)

Promising review: "Bought this dress for a summer wedding. It fits perfectly! Just a little long, but with heels it will be fine. I like the material — soft, light, and comfortable. You can wear it casual or dressy with jewelry. I am adding sandals with a mid-heel for the length. If you are shorter, you may need to have it hemmed. It is worth it!" —DLF

Price: $34.95+ (available in sizes XS–4XL and 30 colors)

Promising review: "Bought this dress for my cousin's wedding, and it was PERFECT. It fit so perfectly and didn’t show too much, even with the low cut! I’ll take 10 more please." —Scarlett Haney

Price: $39.89+ (available in sizes S–XL and 38 colors and patterns)

Promising review: "Love this dress. Wore it to a wedding. Got lots of compliments!! Fit perfectly. I bought a petticoat to go under the dress, and a wide belt." —Eva

Price: $34.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 36 colors/patterns)

Promising review: "I wore this to one of my friends' 'formal' weddings in November in Charleston. I had so many compliments! It was very comfortable throughout the entire night. It's fitted, but not so tight that I couldn't dance in it. Absolutely loved it! Fits perfectly!" —Rachel Hollowell

Price: $45.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and 45 colors/patterns)

Promising review: "I love this dress! I wore it to a wedding and got several compliments. It is super comfortable, soft, and fun to wear. I wore it straight out of the package, and it didn’t get wrinkled throughout the night. I was worried about the fit, but it was great. I will be buying another color." —Dana Shaun

Price: $53.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in seven colors)

Promising review: "I love this dress. Bought it for a wedding and absolutely loved it. Received some compliments. The material is breathable and solid (not see-through). I wore it at a wedding in July during the afternoon in PR, which was soooo hot, but I was relatively comfortable. I love the fit. Strongly recommend if you are considering it." —Jackie T.

Price: $29.48+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and 16 colors/patterns)

Promising review: "I absolutely love, love, love this dress! The color (blue) is so vivid and bright. The velvet-like material is very soft and has stretch to it (spandex). It is definitely worth the price, because this dress looks very expensive. Even though this dress hits well below my knees, I actually don't mind the length. I wore this dress to an evening wedding in February 2020. My last event before we went into lockdown. I recieved SO, SO, SO many compliments! It paired well with silver/gray velvet sandal heels. All the wrinkles were gone after being hung up for a couple days. No ironing necessary. Don't hesitate with purchasing this dress. It's so worth it." —Ebonnie Fisher

Price: $48.20 (available in sizes S–XXL and 20 colors)

Promising review: "Wore for a wedding, and it was super cute. I needed something I could breastfeed in, and this was the perfect mix of cute and practical for me. The dress is a true wrap, but I didn’t have issues feeling exposed, even with chasing a baby and toddler around all day." —Michelle Dirckx

Price: $45.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and 32 patterns)

Promising review: "I purchased this dress on a whim for a wedding I was attending. I love this dress, and I am already looking for another event to wear it to. I received so many compliments on the color, the high-low hem line, and the off-the-shoulder neckline. It is very comfortable, stretchy, and well-made, especially for the price. I attended an outside wedding in Florida when it was about 85 degrees and very high humidity. My biggest plus was it did not show sweat! A lot of ladies were very jealous. I was comfortable the entire night. I wore the dress for about 12 hours, with eight of those being outside. The shoulders did not slip, which sometimes I have problems with when it comes to off-the-shoulder tops and dresses." —Amanda

Price: $42.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 20 colors)

Promising review: "I wore this dress to a wedding this weekend and felt so fabulous in it. It comes across as much more expensive than it is. I may buy another one I love it so much." —Tara Cuslidge-Staiano

Price: $41.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 28 colors and patterns)

Promising review: "This dress fit perfectly, and the side tie was an added touch. I wore it for a wedding and again for a brunch, and it is super comfortable and thick material!" —J. Brown

Price: $38.99+ (available XS–3XL, short and long sleeves, and 43 colors/patterns)

Promising review: "I LOVE THIS DRESS! It has awesome stretch, pockets were not bulky, and the length was juuuuust right for me (maybe slightly an inch too short, but still worked!). It fit my chest and stayed up just fine. I cinched it with a brown belt and got compliments on it all night at a wedding I was at. The best part? It wasn't clingy on the body. Meaning I didn't have to wear shapewear. It was GREAT! Highly recommended dress!!" —Julie Therese

Price: $39.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 23 colors and patterns)

Promising review: "Got so many compliments on this dress. Wore it to a wedding, and it was perfect! Very snug-fitting (like the product pictures show). The sleeve part covers the chest part of the dress, so I didn’t even need to wear a bra." —Erica C.

Price: $39.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and 14 colors)

Promising review: "I was worried about ordering this dress because some of the reviews stated that the sizing is weird. It's PERFECT! I wore it to my brother's wedding and got so many compliments. The straps being adjustable helped to make it a perfect fit. This is my new go-to dress for weddings and other events. For those asking about what bra to wear, I just wore the silicone petal covers, and they worked great with the dress." —Kelsey

Price: $45.70 (available in sizes XS–XL, and 21 colors)
