Shoppers say this comfy dress — now just $34 — ‘falls perfectly to camouflage my pouchy belly’

As far as we’re concerned, Memorial Day is already here — it’s not just a single date on the calendar, but a feeling, a lifestyle, a vibe. This glorious unofficial summer kickoff also means we’re in peak travel season. Before jetting off on that much-needed beach trip, don’t forget the most important thing: a good vacation dress. We think the flowy Anrabess Casual Tiered Maxi Dress deserves a spot in your suitcase. And right now, it’s just $34.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

For just over $30, you’ll get a comfortable dress you can wear to the beach, to the pool, out exploring and for dinner. Translation: You’ll get your money’s worth.

Why do I need this? 🤔

Loose and flowy, this classic silhouette features a crew neck and thick straps for a little bra-friendly coverage while still showing off some skin. Made of a light polyester blend, the skirt gracefully skims the body without clinging. And there are pockets, which pretty much seals the deal, right?

Throw it on over your bathing suit or slip into it before grabbing your morning coffee. Pair it with some comfortable sneakers for mid-day excursions (we’re talking shopping trips, obviously). Finally, when the sun sets, style it with some classic heels or dressy sandals to look your best for a romantic dinner — whether it’s on the beach at sunset or your favorite neighborhood restaurant.

What reviewers say 💬

Amazon shoppers are smitten with this throw-on-and-go staple.

Pros 👍

“The empire waist falls perfectly to camouflage my pouchy belly,” explained one happy reviewer. “But because the top is fitted, it doesn’t look at all frumpy, as many comfy dresses do.” The same reviewer loved it so much, they ended up ordering a second one in gray.

“Very flattering,” said another Amazon shopper. “[The dress is] not too sheer, but light enough to not get too hot in it.” A third customer noted that the dress isn’t see-through, adding that they “can’t wait to wear it” on an upcoming vacation.

Meanwhile, this fashionista offered up some fun styling tips: “Add a jean jacket or light jacket. Or put a white tee underneath. A very versatile wardrobe staple … Wear it to the office, or on a casual dinner date. I plan to wear it in Italy with a pair of walking tennis shoes or sandals. So many options!”

Cons 👎

If you’re on the shorter side and looking for a midi-length dress, read on. “I love the color and how it flows at the bottom. However, it’s too long,” explains one four-star reviewer. “I was going to return it, [but] I changed my mind and decided to get it altered instead. That’s just how much I like it.”

Another user agreed, noting: “Very nice dress. Just know it is very long. Read the size chart to see if it will work for you.”

One final shopper pointed out that the color they initially bought looked different when they opened up the package. “It fits me well, it’s really comfortable and I’ve received several compliments when I’ve worn it,” they started. “However … the color is off. It was pictured and described as a dark blue, almost purplish. What I received is more like a dark gray.”

Neutrals are great, but how gorgeous is this lilac? The color is trending for summer 2024.
