It is a little bit longer than I expected but great quality. I got a xs and it is a tiny bit large but really no big difference
Gabriella G.
I love it! I love it! I love it! It is a youthful summery flowy beautiful dress! It is absolutely gorgeous!!! I love it so much! I ordered a medium to give me a little more room but it fits great!!!
Sarah E.
I would size down in this dress if you’re able to. I got an xxs and wished it was a little more fitting but other than that I love the dress!
Katherine D.
Nice light weight dress. Sized up for nursing and pregnancy to a small. Could have stuck with true to size XS
Yaly E.
I bought in XL. I sized up. The dress is cute but I think that is normal for the price. Btw it doesn’t have lined.
Tabitha C.
This dress is simple and comfy! I love that I can dress it up and wear tennis shoes and looks cute! The dress has a looser fit and reached my knees at 5’ 6”
Joeli C.
This dress is perfect. It is light and airy and perfect for a summer night! Love the button down front. Fits true to size, with a little extra space.
Lauren M.
I’m so glad I ordered this dress. It will be perfect for humid, Texas summers. The fabric is very lightweight. I love how flattering it is too and the price point! Thanks for another beautiful dress Ivy City! ❤️
Jessica Z.
I love everything about it except for the fact that it doesn't have any under slip/ extra layer. So it is a bit see through and I can feel the inseams. Please always add that extra layer, it does make a difference. ❤️

My daughter loves this dress. It’s so classy. It’s a little thin in the sun but still can’t see through it. We love it. She did her senior pictures in it.

Got this for my daughter’s senior pictures and the dress is perfect. She loves it.

I have to say how disappointed I am with this dress. I ordered the dress in blue large, and it ran very big. So then I ordered the red in medium expecting it to fit, but it was incredibly snug, I couldn’t even get the zipper up. I then ordered ordered it in the large. The dress now fits but it is VERY boxey and unflattering, also if I even raise my arms halfway up the bust becomes incredibly tight and the shoulders pucker. I am very disappointed in the overall design of the dress, now that the dress “fits” it’s incredibly frumpy and unattractive. The overall quality of this dress versus the blue one is also very disappointing, it’s very thin and feels like a cheap knock off. I’ve done so many returns at this point I just gave up and kept the dress that I could finally zip up. But I feel like my money has been totally wasted, not to mention the fact that I bought a matching dress for my daughter so I’ve spent even more money. This whole experience has left me felling like Ivyco isn’t totally worth their price tag.

Light fabric but not see through - perfect for living in the south! The color is bright, the button down is sweet, and the fit is perfection
Sarah N.
This is so light weight and perfect for hot summer days. The fabric has zero stretch and I am wearing a medium but I want the waist form fitting so my bust area is slightly tight.
Taylee M.
It’s just a little too long on me and I’m 5’6”.
Brie S.
I ordered two sizes bigger than usual because the buttons would pucker over my bust- but now that it fits- I love this dress and feel like Allie from The Notebook when I wear it. I hope they make it in other colors.
Lucy J.
Love this dress! I bought it as a nursing friendly option. I’m six weeks postpartum and had to size up 2 from my normal size of medium. It fits small in the bust but is super forgiving and flattering in the rest of the dress-meaning it’s not baggy or poor fitting. I’m 5’7” 170 for reference. Love this dress and this company!
Sarah K.
Love the fit of the Allie, it is a very feminine style. The fabric is very thin and makes for a great dress to wear in warmer weather.
Kylie E.
I love love love this dress! I’m 5’7” and weight 130 lbs. I’m small in my chest are as well. I’m usually a size small but after looking at the size info I ordered an xs and am very glad I did!
Sindhu P.
Amazing fit ! Felt beautiful wearing.
Eto N.
This dress is stunning.
Sharon K.
I love the Allie dress! I love to get fancy, but the Allie is great for a more casual vibe! It’s fitted, so it’s a little tighter around the bust. I did stick with my Medium, and it fit perfectly! I hope this dress can be made with pockets!
Lexie S.
Love the color and print of this one! I also have the blue one. It’s so comfy and light weight. Perfect for every day wear. A little tight in the bust with my usual size but fits great everywhere else!
Emi
I wrote the longest review and I don't think it went through, so I will summarize: the bust is tight and the waist runs big. Perfect for an apple, pear, or rectangle shape! I'm an hourglass so the waist is loose in my size up, but the bust wouldn't have worked in my true size (buttons pulled). The cutest print and I love that it's inspired by Allie Hamilton! I'm going to see if I can get the waist taken in to make it work. I love the non-smocked casual option. Please make more everyday dresses that are not smocked, Ivy wives!
Emi
I selected "true to size" because I feel like this runs small in the bust and large in the waist so it evens out. You could size up or down depending on what your measurements are! I sized up to a medium (I'm a small in nearly everything Ivy) because of my bust, and while I like that the buttons don't pull, the waist is really quite large. I might see if I can get it tailored and take in the waist. I don't think I could have gotten my usual small because the bust would have pulled. I've seen people saying that the Allie isn't truly nursing friendly because of the tiny buttons, but I don't find them hard to get done/undone! My measurements are 36-26-38 and I needed a medium in this one.
Abigail J.
I love this dress!! I’ve been wearing this dress like non stop since I bought it is so lightweight and perfect for summer. It’s a very flattering cut and can be dressed up or down. My only complaint would be that it doesn’t have any pockets!!
Riley K.
This dress is stunning! My true to size L runs a little small through the arms and bust.
Jessica R.
This dress is cute and casual. Gets very wrinkley thoughts I wore it for the 4th of July and it was great! Medium.
Albinka S.
The dress is stunning but for me is too small in breast area. I usually wear size L and I ordered XL but its still too small for me.
Kennedi G.
I literally wear this dress every single chance I get. I wear it to baby showers, parties and all my summer events. It is so easy to dress up or down (dressing it down is my favorite!) and it looks so cute with a pair of sneakers. I can’t rave about this dress enough!
Ashlee A.
I loved wearing this for the 4th of July and i got so many compliments. Everytime I wear Ivy, I feel beautiful and get multiple people asking about were i got my dress! This dress I could have went down if it wasn’t for the tighter sleeves but i liked the relaxed fit as it was so comfortable. I would just look at the size guide and if you have bigger arms or waist, size up
Sarah T.
I love this dress but it fits a little weird on me!
I'm usually a medium, but this dress was too tight on my chest so I returned it. I had to size up to a large but sizing up made the whole dress so big on me. It's still cute and I'll still wear it, just unfortunate that it went from bing the perfect dress minus the too tight on the boobs, to being too big all over.
A Z.
Very lightweight and perfect for the summer heat. If you have a larger chest, I recommend sizing up 1 or 2 to avoid gapping buttons.
Rachel
I love ivycityco and wanted so badly to love this dress but it just didn’t work for me. The sizing is very weird and although it seemed to fit well in the waist, chest, and shoulder width, it was so tight on my shoulders I couldn’t lift my arms to save my life. If I wanted to pull up my hair, zip up/down the dress, or make any type of movement with my arms it was impossible with this dress on. I wouldn’t recommend getting this dress but if you do, maybe try sizing up.
Jessica W.
Love this dress! I had it in blue and loved it so much that I bought it in red to wear for my 30th birthday. One of my favorite Ivy City dresses!
Macy A.
Cute dress, but was tight in the bust and shoulders on me and quite sheer. I like the color and pattern, but chose to not keep.
Mirthe
The colors on this dress are so vibrant! I really wanted it to fit right, and while the bust and waist were great, it was too long for my 5’2” frame (wearing S), and I was unable to lift my arms. It’s a great casual and cute dress, but not a practical fit for me.
Anca H.
Cute dress & colour. I was however not a fan of the material. It’s not the same as the other colour of the blue Allie, this one is very thin.
I did size up for the bust so the buttons don't pull.
Yuliya
Runs small in the chest area. Even after sizing up the sleeves just fit so stiffly. Feels like it might bust open moving my arms around. Other than that, beautiful casual

Laura
I’m surprised no one else has commented on the awkward fit of the sleeves, the dress overall fit me but I felt trapped in the sleeves, I couldn’t even lift my arms up because they were so tight. I loved the dress style but sadly had to return.
Iris R.
My new go to dress for any casual events or to workso fresh, beautiful fit on how it compliments your body!
Sarah R.
Fits perfect. The colors are even more vibrant than I thought and the print is adorable.
Katie
Got this is my usual S. I love it! The fabric is not very stretchy, so it’s not the best for laying around on a couch, but it would be perfect for a summer outing! It’s a nice light dress that’s more casual than usual Ivy dresses which made for a great wardrobe addition.
Shannon M.
I absolutely adore this dress, It's so comfortable and the simple style makes it easy to throw on for an every day dress. I need it in more colors! One for every day of the week haha I do think it runs a little smaller, I usually would be a Large and ordered an Extra Large and it fits be great, a little loose for movement but the Large would have been to restricting. If your larger busted you might want to go up two sizes!
Sarah R.
So this is absolutely a beautiful print! I tend to be more box shaped and around the shoulders were a tad snug but otherwise this dress is amazing
Judit A.
I love this dress. I am about 130lbs and 5’3 and went up a size (M). I’m glad I did because I feel this dress runs a little smaller from the shoulder area that it can be hard to raise your arms. I still love it but recommend sizing up. I also have the blue Allie and wear both the size Small and Medium in that one.
Crystal
My favorite dress! I sized up because of the buttons and I’m glad I did. The chest would have been a little too snugged
Ab V.
So comfy, great material.

Very comfortable dress. I wish the mini dress was available form my little one.

I was grateful for the other reviews - definitely size up if you are large in the bust. Because of this I love my new Allie Dress! I would love for future collections to be photographed with a variety of model sizes so us curvy girls can have a better idea of how it will fit us.

This lightweight little dress is precious. I love love love the bright and happy red! It fits a bit tighter in the chest compared to how it fits everywhere else, but other than that I cannot wait for warmer weather to wear this beaut again!

Lovely print. Fabric has no stretch so I'd recommend sizing up if you are large in the bust.
