Is the dress true to size?

The rib knit and shirred bodice stretch, so most shoppers take their usual size. Those between sizes may prefer the smaller one for a closer fit.

Does it have a zipper?

No. The shirred bodice stretches over the head, so there is no back zipper.

How does the petite length fit?

The petite cut is shorter through the body and skirt. It suits shoppers around 5'4" and under who want a true midi.

Is it warm enough for winter?

The long sleeves and polyester rib knit make it a fall and winter dress. It is not lined, so very cold days need a coat or tights.

How should I care for it?

Wash cold on a gentle cycle and lay flat or hang to dry. Heat can shrink the rib knit and dull the shirring.

The best new price is $45 at Banana Republic Factory as of November 6, 2026. Banana Republic Factory runs frequent promotions, so watch for markdowns around holidays.
