What about Jude Connolly dresses? Some are sleeveless but there are other choices.

My favorite summer dress is the St James 3/4 sleeve striped dress.

Why do they call this length a maxi? I think maxis should be to your ankle.

The model is 5'10" so on most people it will be to the ankle.

I agree. They’re so big and clunky. Don’t you get hot?

What color do you have? I can't decide between the green and blue.

Does Biden run true to size? I've never gotten anything from there, but this is cute!

These are all cute but I have previously had issues with the quality of FP for the price. So just fair warning to anyone looking there to read the reviews closely or be cautious with returns. I've bought several dresses there in recent years that went back for having poor seamwork or botched embroidery. I also recommend wearing a full length slip with most of their dresses -- many are completely transparent but since they are aimed at a younger customer, they don't really seem to care. Which is great for the 24 yr olds wearing this stuff to Coachella, but I'm in my 40s and don't want people to be able to see my underwear at school drop off!

I know the women of DCUM don’t like stitch fix, but I have this and it looks really good on and is very comfortable.
