Does this dress run true to size?

Feedback is mixed. Some buyers say it fits as expected, while others find it boxy or short and suggest sizing down if you want a closer fit.

What is the dress made of?

It is polyester with about 11% elastane, giving it a silky feel and some stretch. It is not silk.

Can I wear a bra with it?

The back is low and open, so a standard bra will show. Most wear it with a stick-on or low-back bra, or a bralette underneath.

Is it appropriate for formal events?

No. It is designed for casual, everyday wear. The mini length and open back suit daytime and informal settings.

How should I care for it?

Follow the care label. Polyester blends generally do best washed cold and hung to dry, and the lace trim should be kept away from high heat.

What is the length like?

It is a mini dress, so it sits well above the knee. Taller shoppers report it running shorter than expected.

About the Free People In This Groove Mini Slip Dress

A sleeveless babydoll slip dress in silky polyester with a lace-trimmed V-neck, tiered A-line skirt and a low open back. It is a Y2K-leaning piece meant for casual wear, not formal occasions. The pull-on fit and short length make it easy to throw on, but the fabric is polyester with a small stretch content, so it feels synthetic rather than like silk. Owners are split: many love the look and movement, while others report a boxy fit and thin fabric.
