Attribute deep dive

We break down what drove each score so you can weigh trade-offs.

Quality Analysis 60/100

This midi dress, crafted from a cotton-blend poplin with 4% spandex, offers a comfortable, non-stretchy fit. While the fabric is mid-weight, the "Dry clean" care instruction suggests a need for gentle handling, which might impact its long-term durability with frequent wear.

Comfort Assessment 70/100

This midi dress offers a breezy shape and adjustable back ties, allowing for a personalized fit that enhances comfort. However, the mid-weight, non-stretchy fabric might feel less forgiving than garments with more give.

Sustainability Impact 60/100

This midi dress is crafted from a cotton-blend poplin, with 96% cotton and 4% spandex, and a 100% cotton lining, indicating a high proportion of natural fibers. However, the inclusion of spandex and the "dry clean" care instruction suggest areas where sustainability could be improved.
