Great for running errands and comfortable around the house.I love a good casual summer dress. Most of the ones I wear are sleeveless, so I thought one like this - with simple short sleeves - would be a nice addition.This definitely reads caftan once it's on. The fabric has a gentle texture to it which is nice, and I love that the pockets are more front-centered vs right on the hips. I will also say that this does feel like it runs a bit big. I like roomy garments, but this takes that to an extreme. It's only really an issue along the neckline, as it does sometimes want to pull down low.One thing does worry me: the tag on the garment says to either handwash or dry clean this dress. I'm hoping that is an error. Feeling the fabric, this doesn't feel like anything that would be damaged by a washing machine, particularly on cold on the permanent press or delicate cycle. If it doesn't survive the washing machine - and there's absolutely no reason why a "beach dress bohemian style" shouldn't, I'll update. Otherwise, this is a comfortable, flop-around-in dress.This is an okay dress, nothing too special. It runs a little large but I think sizing down would be too much. I machine washed and hanged this up to dry. It came out just fine doing that. The fabric is a little scratchy to me. I am 5'7" and it almost brushes the floor. So this is better for taller women or if you are my height, expect to wear platforms or heels. It's a comfortable weight considering how long it is. But I put it on to wear as a lounger and realized it wasn't cozy enough for house wearing with the length and bit of scratchiness. But I could wear it out since I have the black that adapts well to several settings.Very nice dress/ caftan like style. Soft yet seemingly durable fabric. Sadly I returned it only because of sizing, will repurchase 1 size down. Good price point for quality of garment.
