Customer Reviews Fresh Produce Dalia Dress

This dress is seriously great. I have never ordered from this brand before, but I will definitely check it out more regularly now! I actually like this dress enough that I now have two of this exact one (one in the solid color, one in the print). It's a bit hard to tell, but the dress shape is somewhere between a relaxed a-line and a trapeze--it has a nice, somewhat casual appearance without being sloppy, and you don't feel like you're drowning in it like trapeze dresses can do. The pockets make for an interesting detail and are functional. The fabric is a decently substantial slub knit, so the color has a nice texture to it, but not so much that it becomes transparent (which some slubs tend towards). I wouldn't wear this in the dead of winter, but this will definitely be a multi-season garment. Sizing-wise, I think it runs a little large mostly due to the shape that it has; if you don't like the greatly oversized look I would consider sizing down. I tend to be a firm medium and ordered a small, which fits like on the model. Also worth noting: if you are very tall you might find it to be closer to a longer tunic than an actual dress--I am 5'8", and it hits a few inches above my knees. Not so short that I need to wear pants or leggings with it, but short enough that I need to consider a bit how I bend over or crouch down.

Great dress, super comfortable and the cut is actually flattering. It washed well on cold and low heat dryer. I'm thinking of ordering another in a different color because i feel like I could wear it every day. I'm 5'6 and 140 pounds, the medium is perfect...

(Same review as for Dalia Shibouri dress - they seem the same except for fabric) Fresh Produce Dalia dresses! What a find! I wish they gave volume discounts on these because I could live in them. As others have said, they are flattering while being supremely comfortable. The pockets lie flat and the dresses hang so well because the fabric is good quality cotton. No need for undergarments either. I'm 5'6" and the dress hits me a little above the knee. I almost always wear a medium for comfort across the back and shoulders but this dress fits better in a small. The biggest difference between small and medium is the room in the chest and body.

I love simple lines, natural fabrics and being comfortable. This dress has it all, BUT... IT IS HUGE. I am 5'3", 38C and 155 lbs. I usually fit a large or sometimes medium in the brands I typically enjoy. Having ordered both a large and a medium to try, I decided to keep the medium. I was worried it might shrink a little with washing. Well, it did not shrink at all and actually "relaxes" a little while wearing. So, I will keep the medium now that I have worn it once (or try to sell it on eBay), but all of this led me to the correct size which is SMALL. I never wear a small as it is almost always too tight in the chest especially. Bottom line, if you try this dress, order 2 sizes down if possible. If you are already a size small, I don't think this dress will work for you. Also, it is pretty casual but can be slightly dressed up with the right accessories.

i was so worried this dress would be shapeless and baggy - it is actually not...!! it is super comfy..i originally bought it in black, and black can pretty much always pull off the "see - i dressed up a bit" look depending on the shoes, of course...wore this dress all day and it went seamlessly from walking around playing tourist to dinner at an upscale steakhouse...may look into getting other colors as it packed really well, too.....

Very comfortable. Although the sleeves are elbow length, the dress is not too hot and it hides my aging upper arms..

I gave this dress 5 Stars because everything about it is terrific. I am 5 ft 1 , 118 pounds and it's huge on me all the way around. Sad to return it but am reminded that Fresh Produce clothing is not made for my body height or shape.

Great little casual dress. Runs a little large. I am usually a small. 5' 4" and 125 lbs. Nice cotton knit material. Appropriate for all ages. I am 72. Wore it to my granddaughters 8th grade grad pool party and got compliments from the much younger parents attending. Nice....

I have been wearing Fresh Produce for 22 years and they have maintained their quality. I love this dress and am so happy to find a place that sells them!

Just got this dress and I love it! Ordering a 2nd one in another color. I wear a size 16 and the XL fit great. I think this style will fit anyone who normally buys size 16-18 or 20. I have not washed it yet, but I have heard Fresh Produce does not shrink.

So Cute!! Easy to Dress up, super comfy and washes like a dream!! Wore it on vacation as well as picking strawberries on our way to the city for business then lunch. Will order more. Runs a little large. ordinarily I'm a med-lg and could actually fit into a small. EXCELLENT BUY!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

This is a great dress! I have owned some pieces from this brand in the past and have always loved the fabrics and fit...and this is no different. Not frumpy...casual and great fit! Plus it has pockets-score!

I thought this was really cute. The Lagoon Green is a nice green color, and the dress fits nicely up top. The style is definitely loose, and I didn't think it was too loose but my husband thought it looked like a nightgown... I sent it back, I didn't love enough to want to wear it if he didn't think it looked cute.

Nice color but ran very large

Cute dress. Fit was fine. The color was definitely brighter in person than on line; almost florescent orange, not melon. I was really disappointed as I really wanted this dress!

Itchy, stiff and frumpy

I am 5'3" weigh 160 a 38 G bra I wear XL comes right at the knee a hair long. hits around chest without being to tight. Not sung around stomach because of the A line. Loves this dress. I have gray and mushroom love both

It's comfortable and fit very well on my 5'3 and 138 lbs body. The color is lovely, so is the blue one which I also ordered. The pockets are great. Very flattering shape.

Love this dress, the color is perfect, bright periwinkle. It is a loose fitting dress on me in the size that i bought, but i prefer, super comfortable. The pockets are baggy, adds a nice look i think but others might not like it. Light and packable.

Love the dress, perfect fit!

Great casual dress. you can dress it up or wear with a pair of sneakers. very comfortable.

It is more fitted at the top and looks and feels as good as a cotton t shirt. I bought 2 of this style and a couple more of the same brand different style. I think short sleeves are more comfy but I’m still keeping the 2 3/4 sleeve dresses.

Comfortable! Great to dress up or be casual as is
