HOTAPEI Women's Summer Striped Maxi Dress - Short Sleeve, Loose Fit, and Pockets - Fashionable and Comfortable

R.: My husband bought this dress for me as an early birthday present last summer and I've never owned a more versatile and comfortable dress in my life.
When we first ordered it, we decided to buy it early since we live abroad and we knew it would take a few weeks to get in and we wanted it to arrive in time for my birthday. Little did we know, but I would later out on my birthday itself that I was actually pregnant. It was a huge, terrifying, wonderful birthday surprise, but since I'm literally a human toothpick, by the time the dress finally arrived, I was already showing despite being only a couple weeks along. I thought that would mean I wouldn't get to wear my new dress, but I was so wrong! This incredible dress was not only sooooooooo ridiculously comfortable, soft, breathable, and beautifully flattering, but it was cut so well that I was able to enjoy wearing it throughout my entire pregnancy even though it's not a maternity dress! I wore it summer and winter, pregnant and postpartum, skinny and huge and no matter what, this dress has looked phenomenal and felt wonderful to wear. I love the cut, the length (the perfect cover up for your gross hairy legs or the pj pants you...

JR: This dress fit perfectly! I am 5’4, 212 pounds and 7 months pregnant. It is long but not trip and fall over it long.This is a WONDERFUL maternity dress! The fabric is thicker so you can wear in the winter as well. I received tons of compliments each time I have worn this dress. I washed it on delicate cycle and let it dry on delicate for only like 20 min and it held up great. Seriously obsessed with how this dress fits. I have big arms and it fits perfect and doesn’t cut them off or make them look bigger than they actually are. I love this dress! Just buy it already!
I bought an XL for reference

AT: I got this dress in the dark blue color (medium) and I absolutely LOVED it!! The fabric was soft and stretchy, and somewhat thick (but not so thick that it makes you feel hot).

I loved it so much I decided to order another in white, but size up to a large because the white one was planned for a vacation where I would be moving/walking a lot so a slightly looser fit would be more comfy. The white large is a bit SMALLER than the blue medium. Also the fabric is much thinner and not nearly as soft or stretchy as the blue. It’s slightly see-through and a bit scratchy, in comparison. The arms and chest fit pretty tight (I’m only a B cup) considering the expected large size. I’m 5’9” and the length is good on both, so no complaints there.

I don’t hate it. I was just a bit disappointed, as I expected it to be larger and of similar quality to the blue one. I still kept it. I just won’t be wearing it on vacation.

NazzerNazzer: Material is thicker than I expected, which was great. I dont like to wear layers to not have my clothes see through.
It is long, which is a plus for me but not everyone. I'm 5 10, 185lbs 36dd with a 32in waist and 44 in hips.
The dress in large is floor length on me. It fits very snug across my chest. Not uncomfortable, but more snug than I personally prefer. The skirt has enough flair to it to fall naturally and hide any trouble spots you feel you have, but is also not so flowy that every breeze puts you in a Marilyn Monroe pose.
The material is not jersey cotton thin, but may be a little hot for muggier climates.
It holds its shape well and after several cycles through the washer and dryer, it isn't pilling, hasn't shrunk, and the color is still vibrant. I bought the pink, which is actually a coral. Would have preferred a pink, but my husband liked the coral too. It has deep and usable pockets, I sewed mine closed personally. I have big enough hips without adding extra material to make them look even wider.
Overall, a nice dress for a decent price and I would buy again. My only real complaint, like many, is that the line to the bodice isn't sewn straight, so where...

M Johnson: I received the dresses much earlier than expected. I ordered it in Navy and Rose. The Navy is more of a royal blue and the Rose has more of medium pink. The navy is an XL and that size was displayed on the order review. However, the rose did not display a size so to prevent the dress from arriving too small, I selected size XXL. The XL fits perfectly but the XXL is a bit loose. I am 5'11 and weight 205 lbs. I am heavy chested (40G). Both are very long and I will need to wear shoes with a heel to keep the hem from dragging. Dresses are well made and are of good quality. Side pockets are a bonus. I am very pleased with the exception of how the XXL fits.
