I wore the Mia Gingham dress for a reunion with some of the faculty who taught in my university fashion department. I thought it was a great choice for a temperate and fresh spring day! It is very comfortable and an easy fit. So glad to show it off!!

Could wear this every day! The color, the fabric, the fit, all lovely.
Christine W.
I’m usually in between a medium and large and the large was sold out. The medium fit super comfortably!
Kara W.
Love the dress! I was able to wear grey shorts underneath without it showing through.
Ellen W.
Bought my dress years ago...I think 2020, but wore it on Easter Sunday this year. I always forget how much I love this dress. I get so many compliments everytime I wear it.

Nursing mamas … Love love love this dress! It is so hard to find nursing friendly dresses and this was perfect for the rehearsal dinner we attended for a wedding. It does wrinkle, but my travel steamer gets gets the job done. Dreamy dress that’s so comfortable!

*I got this dress for Easter Sunday and loved the blue color! The smocked nature of the dress makes it an easy choice. I'm celebrating my babies first birthday and I'm still in a season where trying clothes on is really my least favorite thing. When the dress showed up in the mail I didn't even try it on for 2 days because it just felt like a chore and I didn't feel like being let down. It made my day when I finality did put the dress on! It fit perfectly and made me feel good and confident. My husband cautiously asked how I liked it and we both smiled when I said I love this dress! Don't hesitate...buy it now!
Whitney C.
Super flattering silhouette and very well made. The gingham is adorable. I’d love this silhouette with a shorter sleeve.
Katie
Love this dress! The fit is great, maybe a little on the bigger size. I wore this for newborn photos, so it worked well with me postpartum body. I plan to wear it many times in the future, also. The fit was great for my girls. With the stretch and length, I think they could get an extra year out of them!
Ashley U.
Baby blue Gingham is my favorite pattern! It was a perfect match for Thanksgiving with my twin sons!
Victoria T.
The dress is beautiful and well made, but the sleeves are a little much
April B.
A little looser in the waste than the Sweet Caroline. This is a medium. I'm 5'-5" 36"B 29"W.
Aubrey J.
Bought for the Fourth of July. It was adorable.
Shelbie A.
Love this! So Dorothy Gale!
Kylie N.
Love this dress!! I love that this is made of cotton and feels so light and breezy! It runs a little big imo so you could probably size down if you wanted.
Wendy K.
This dress was perfect for my Dorothy costume for Halloween! It was comfortable and flattering. Customer service was so helpful in helping me get the dress quickly so it would come in time for Halloween. It even worked for me during my third trimester of pregnancy!
Emily D.
I absolutely love my Mia dress!! It fits beautifully and is very flattering. The bodice is stretchy, so it accommodates small fluctuations. I got many compliments on it!
K
This dress is so perfect for summer!
Rachel R.
Loved this dress for a Dorothy costume and can’t wait to wear it afterwards!
Cali S.
Perfect wedding guest dress for a summer wedding that I attended!
Lana R.
One of favorite dress great quality! Fits great
Jane Lee B.
My second order from ivy. I love the blue color and the material is so soft.
MAEVE B.
Loved this dress for our baby shower! Very comfortable and good stretch for larger busted ladies!
J B.
The pattern and fit are fantastic! I'm 5'3" so the fit hits nearly like a maxi dress. My only hang up with the dress is that where the tier hits when you sit down is a little unflattering. But the dress is beautiful, comfortable, and versatile. I sized down to a M from my usual XXL. A L would have been my perfect fit.
Tarina G.
So glad this one went on sale! I love the 100% Cotton dresses. The cotton is a little stiffer than I had expected, but not at all uncomfortable or itchy. I also like the fact that it is unlined, which makes it perfect for hot weather. It is NOT see-through. The color is so beautiful and the gingham print is timeless! I wear a Large in smocked dresses.
Holly W.
I love this dress. I love the material, it washes nicely and I love that it is a bit more casual for running errands in.
Amanda S.
This was my first Ivy dress and I absolutely love it! It’s such comfortable and can be dressed up or down. I love the length as well, I’m 5’2 and it still fits like a midi
Kayla S.
I am absolutely obsessed with this dress and the mission of Ivy City Co. I wanted better quality clothes that are a bit more modest and fit my larger chest better. I was blown away by the quality of these dresses! I feel my best in a flowy dress and I don't know if I could buy from anywhere else now! I am 5'2" and 175lbs. I usually wear about a 12/14 in dresses and wear a 36G and after reading reviews, I have found that with the smocking the Large fits me perfectly. I love that the neckline is modest on me and I can dress these up or down for work or casual wear! I have already ordered more and created a wish list for the future.
Larissa P.
Love this dress! It is true to size and so comfy!
Carissa B.

I bought this dress for my wife. She loved it. True to size.
Caitlin Z.
This is beautiful and flattering! I love the smocked top that will accommodate nursing. I wasn't sure if I'd like the puffy sleeves when I ordered it, but I love them!
Ariel F.
I’ve been dying for the Mia to come back in stock, and this beauty did not disappoint! Love this dress!
Alona T.
So beautiful dress! Great quality
Yuliya
Beautiful comfy dress !
Ali M.
Love this dress! It is so comfortable, very light when wearing, and can be dressed up or down. It is the perfect blue color and I loved matching with my daughter! Fit is true to size for the smocked dresses, so you can take your true to size or size down if you're in between sizes. My daughter is in the 2T and I'm in the small.
Maaike v.
Second order, ordered an M again and fits well! My measurements: waist 74 cm, bust 90 cm and hips 96 cm, my height 172 cm. I love it! I went to brunch this morning and it was the perfect brunch dress. The picture is of me in the afternoon at Zurichsee in Zwitserland. I just had to take it eith me on holiday!
Hafsa N.
Love this dress love matching with my girl’s ❤️
Alina M.
I know it says polyester on the website but it does say 100% cotton on the washing label. So I’m hoping it is actually cotton. I guess I’ll find out when I have actually worn this beauty. If you are looking for 100% cotton alternative, they do have a mia design in a madeline silhouette in brown gingham.
Lani T.
I’m wearing a size small. Runs big.
Kedron V.
Hands down one of my favorite Ivy dresses ever! Extra stretch in this one, so I sized down to a medium for a perfect fit!
Mckinsey K.
I absolutely love this dress. I got the 2X and I felt like it fit me true to size even with the stretch and smocking. I also get tons of compliments every time I wear it. You won't regret getting this one.
Allison B.
This dress is absolutely perfect! It's the length of a maxi dress on me, since I'm short, but I prefer that length!
Doris V.
Nice dress, very comfortable and very stretchy, I love the color, I ordered size M is my size in stretchy dresses
Meaghan S.
I love the dress it’s comfortable on the stomach and the quality of the cloth is amazing!
Emma R.
The perfect teacher dress! This dress was a little long on me ( I’m 5’1 and ordered a small) but still fits very comfortably. I sized down from a medium, but would of been able to comfortably fit in an XS as well.
Megan B.
I have wanting this dress for a year now. I was so happy when it came back in stock. It is absolutely beautiful, comfortable, and perfect for spring/summer weather. I can't wait to where out. I'm 5'5, wearing a medium and I'm usually a large and after reading many reviews on sizing down I decided to get the medium and I'm so glad I did. It fits perfectly.
Tiffany P.
I’ve been waiting for this dress to restock! I love it so much!
Allison W.
Gorgeous Gingham!
Such a fun color and style of dress. I love it so much I might need it in pink too!! True to size, INSANELY comfortable and so flattering on any figure!
Lauren/rachel S.
Absolutely beautiful

I love my mia so much! Havent worn her out yet!
Sarah M.
My mom and I both loved this dress! I sized down to an xl. I usually wear a 16/18. My bra size is 38 G. This is the perfect summer dress. The fabric is light and comfortable.
Ariel F.
I sized down 2 sizes from my normal size (M) since I heard this dress has so much forgiveness with that smocking. It definitely does, but I wish I would have only gone down one. I will most likely exchange for the small. It’s a beautiful dress! I’ve been dying for that Mia in blue to come back and I’m so thrilled to finally have it! It’s beautiful!
Jillian S.
Cute dress! I sized down one size even though I’m 6 months pregnant and it was perfect.
Bee H.
I have enjoyed this dress so very much - I first bought it in a medium after my pregnancy because it was one of the few things that was forgiving but also stylish. The smocking is flattering up top, but it does not hug the waist area. I re-ordered in a small once I dropped the baby weight because I love it so much. We took our Christmas vacation photos in our matching mommy-and-me set, and it was so perfect for the beach. For reference: I’m 5’4, 155 lbs and the small works - the medium was perfect when I was in the 175/180 range - it has a lot of stretch.
Cecilia R.
I had gotten the Mia in blue and I had sold it (I regretted it) I finally got my hands on it again and I sized down
It fits perfect! Just need to save to get me the pink one ☺️
Kennedy B.
I was worried this dress would resemble a picnic blanket but once I saw it on and in person, I could not have been more wrong. I have a few Ivy City dresses with this style and I cannot say enough good words about it. It's comfortable, flattering, and easily dressed up or down. The shade of blue is stunning, light yet vibrant. The length is great as well. I am 5'3. This is a classic Ivy City dress!
Sarah
A bit slim in the skirt
Looooove the print, but short is a bit slim in the midsection as compared to Madeline or Basil. Not a flattering look for me :sweat_smile:, but the size up was loose everywhere else :woman-shrugging:. Wish it was just a tad bit more full in the skirt because the color is PERFECT!!
Holly
Size down!
Beautiful dress but if you want to wear it off shoulder size down one or two!
Emily C.
Such a fun summer dress. Love love love it.
Jane M.
I LOVE this dress! The smocking definitely allows lot more room so make sure you size down. The fabric is great too! It washes up easily and doesn’t wrinkle too much. Love it!
Kelly W.
Fits perfectly and is true to size like all of the similar styles. My only complaint is how long it is for us short girls, but I’m choosing to see it as more of a maxi dress than a midi. For reference, I’m 5’2” and wearing a small.

This dress is so pretty in blue! Its such a perfect summer dress!

Love this dress! Felt confident in it even 5 days postpartum when we took this pic. And loved that I found this baby outfit from Caden lane that perfectly matches the Mia gingham. I’m wearing xs but could have sized down to xxs.
Gladys R.
Beautiful dress! So glad I read the reviews and sized down 2 sizes! I’m 5’8 and 120lb and the XXS fits great! The top has plenty of stretch and the skirt and sleeves are very full so definitely size down. Material is beautiful and great quality. Can’t wait to take family photos in these!

I absolutely love and adore this dress. It is so comfortable and accommodates my growing belly so well. This is the only brand that I've been able to wear while pregnant, that isn't maternity and I always feel so pretty in these dresses. Definitely recommend.

I am so in love with this dress! I’m 5’8 and weigh 215lbs and bought the large and it fit very well. The top is made out of this excellent stretchy material. I’ve never felt so confident as I did for these family pictures! I will 100% be purchasing again.

Have this in pink and blue! Love the blue for the 4th and baby showers. This fabric is super wrinkle prone and takes a minute to get the wrinkles to cooperate but the dress is worth it. For size reference, I’m 5’5 130 in an XS - typically a small (or medium if super fitted through the hips), but the smocking has a lot of give.

I'm 5'6 i wear a 10/12/14 in dresses and 32 in jeans. The L fits perfectly. I'm 3 months postpartum and its perfect for nursing. I got a M in another pattern and it fits well but the extra inches on the L gives me more of the puffy sleeve and volume skirt "ivy look". If I wasn't nursing I would have more room in the bust of the M.
The dresses are generous I'm glad I didn't follow the measurement size chart It would be way too big.

Very pretty dress but I wished I would have sized down on this one( usually medium / 8 but should have ordered a small) . I like my dresses
To be a bit roomy and preffer a body skimming rather than tight fit, but I felt as if this dress overwhelmed me a bit. I am also 5'7 so not pettite by any means.... other than that the colors and the fabric is lovely, definitely a very comfortable piece.

The fabric feels really nice and airy, and it isn't lined like the Madeline, so it will be less hot on summer days here in the South! I would have loved to see some slight differences from the Madeline, though, as they're exactly the same cut, and it feels too similar to have both Madelines and both Mias. Maybe flutter sleeves or a different length? Be sure to size down once or even twice, ladies!!

I’ve been wearing this dress now that’s super warm outside and I gotta say it’s very comfortable and the fact that it’s made out of cotton makes it breathable, you’re not gonna be burning up if you’re wearing this during the hotter months. Very very happy about my purchase. I’m between a size 4-6 and I’m wearing the xs, but I think the xxs would’ve been perfect.
