Finding a staple dress is like finding a needle in a haystack, especially when you have a hefty list of non-negotiables, like me. It has to be comfy, classy and flattering, nailing the latest trends without squeezing or highlighting trouble areas. I’m picky with clothes, so wearing this T-shirt dress on Anthropologie on repeat says a lot.
The Daily Practice short-sleeve shirt dress balances a laid-back aesthetic with a polished, put-together feel. It’s secretly slimming, too — cinching at the waist to give athletic body types an hourglass appearance. And while Anthropologie is typically on the pricier end, this must-have is well under $100!
17 Smocked Dresses That Are So Comfy and Flattering, No One Will Know You’re Bloated
Breathable, 100% cotton gives the dress just enough structure to drape over insecurities, while allowing me to feel breezy and cool in the summer. It’s also so soft, you won’t mind taking a snooze while wearing it.
The star of the show is the clever side ruching that snatches the midsection and enhances my silhouette in an undercover way. The side details are fairly stretchy, fitting my body pretty perfectly, which is a definite plus.
To top it off, the oversized yet structured drop shoulders leave plenty of room around your arms and armpits. It’s everything you love about an relaxed tee with the chic style of a dress.
What’s more, this dress is beyond versatile. This week alone, I’ve rocked the blue variety while grocery shopping, walking with a friend and attending a water lantern festival. It pairs beautifully with white sneakers, but the dress gives pure rich mom energy when worn with brown slide sandals.
Refined and sleek, it’s no wonder this flattering find is flying off the shelves. Athletic ladies love it as a “throw-on-and-go” outfit, calling it a “fun take on a T-shirt dress” and the “perfect casual outfit.”
One titled their review “Athletic girlies rejoice” and wrote, “This dress was roomy enough for my upper body and roomy enough for my quads, while still giving me a cinched waist. Good price point, cute colors. I want this in every color!”
