I'm 42. My perfect summer dress is:

1. A light, 100% woven cotton, and NOT a knit jersey that get too hot, but mustn't be too see-through. If gauzy, it has to have a cotton lining at certain areas. Linings are often not cotton, so that reduced options.
2. It has cap sleeves or similar to protect my shoulders from the sun. 
3. It has a waist because that's my best feature.
4. It goes down below the knee because I don't like my knees but not too long because it gets in the way when I walk the dogs.
5. It's a nice color or pattern.

Which is why I don't have a lot of summer dresses![/quote]

Same. I don’t know why this is almost impossible to find. [/quote]

This is Jersey, which is specifically NOT what op wants. [/quote]

Read the description before jumping down someone’s throat. It’s 100% cotton. I have this dress in two prints and I can also attest… it is cotton. [/quote]

It’s COTTON JERSEY. Jersey is typically made from cotton but the type of weave is typically thicker and heavier than voile or poplin or lawn. I never said it wasn’t cotton - I said it is jersey. [/quote]
Thank you!  To the person who keeps saying that this dress is cotton - yes it is!  Jersey refers to the type of fabric, not the fiber.  Jersey is a fine gauge knit and can be made from a variety of fibers - cotton, silk, wool, polyester. It was how you got stretch in a fabric prior to the invention of fibers like Lycra.    T-shirts are cotton jersey.  The PP requested non-jersey, meaning a woven fabric, like what would be used for a button down shirt.[/quote]
