Grana Review Linen A-Line Dress

Hi guys and here's finally a Grana review after a string of Everlane ones.  I actually purchased this linen a-line dress awhile ago so unfortunately they no longer have this white version in stock, but they do have a pretty oatmeal linen version of this a-line dress, which I purchased after taking these pictures because I loved this dress so much.

This is the perfect dress for those sweltering summer days.  The linen is light and airy and the a-line shape ensures the dress floats away from your body.  The neckline closes with one easy button and the arm holes are nice and big (slightly too big for me in this white version).  For reference I'm wearing the medium size here.

I love that this dress has pockets and that it's lined.  Actually in this white version that they no longer sell, it's still a bit sheer even though it's lined.  The oatmeal linen version is fully opaque.  With the lining and the beautiful linen material, this feels like a high-quality dress.

Here I am wearing the oatmeal linen version in a small.  I found the small to be a bit tighter around the chest (for reference I'm a 36A and 5'4").  The length of this dress is a bit short, so it's probably best for those on the petite side.

Anyway if you're still looking for a good summer dress (though I feel most bloggers have moved onto 'pre-fall' or fall clothing), then I can't recommend this dress enough (especially this oatmeal linen version).  If you're a first time customer you can get 10% off with this referral link and you can find all my other Grana reviews here.
