Comments about The Occasion by Old Navy Fit & Flare Sleeveless Taffeta Midi Dress

Great dress for the money! It does have a "dressy" look to the taffeta material.

The fit is perfect (I am a 14-16 bottom, XL-XXL top, 42C and I ordered the XL, top is on the snug side, but that is what I wanted so I could wear without a bra). The elastic in the back means that it is flexible with your size and the skirt is beautiful and full and tummy friendly. I love the structure and the "swish" of the fabric, but could see how it might feel too plasticky to some. I get hot VERY easily and have the 2 piece version of this dress (the skirt/crop top) and have worn it to three weddings this year - I didn't feel too warm even with copious dancing, I love that the fabric is structured enough to keep a nice shape/silhouette throughout the night, and it looks like far more expensive dress than it is. I'm a fan (obviously, since I returned for the 2nd version!). This one feels like a more timeless silhouette and I am super excited to wear it all around the south of France this summer 😍

I wore the black floral version of this to a wedding this weekend and got so many compliments! It's a heavy taffeta so it has that rustly sound but also enough stiffness that the skirt stands out well without a crinoline. The fabric is smooth and comfortable. It has HUGE pockets, smocked sides, a zippered back, and adjustable straps. The fit-and-flare design and sweetheart neckline is sooo flattering. My only real complaint was that the straps were very narrow, and slipped a lot. But otherwise? Gorgeous. The floral pattern is also divine. I hope they do more dressy/formal style floral patterns!

I went on an overhaul of my closet. I picked this up when in was on sale. I loved the print. I was nervous because I had bought last seasons skirt and crop top and returned because I did not like the fit. I understand what they are saying about the material, however, for the price you can not beat it! It can be dressed up or down. The fit, true to size! I am 54 122 lbs with small chest. I got the small and it is perfect. I like things fitted! I ddi not return this dress!

This dress is pretty, comfortable and it has pockets! All dresses should have pockets!

I don't understand why everyone is complaining about the fabric. I guess they don't know what taffeta is, it is a little slick and has a bit of structure, which I love. The dress fits beautifully and is true to size. Great for so many different occasions.

There have been different patterns and lengths of this dress and I love them all. The material is not hot. Its flattering. I always get compliments when I wear them. I want this length im more colors. Its true to size. If you are in between sizes, I think both would fit. The smaller size would be more fitted at the top and the larger size would give more coverage on top like my picture.

Just for the sole purpose that I don't understand the negative comments. I absolutely LOVE this dress. The material is amazing and it's absolute perfection for a summer wedding. I found it maybe fit a bit bigger than I was expecting and I wish they had a petite in the floral pattern as it may be a tad bit long but I'm absolutely keeping this and can't wait to wear it!
