Mesh-Knit Short-Sleeve Dress | Imperial Blue

Dresses

$83as of Sep 3, 2026. Check the current price at Everlane

The verdict

A lightweight knit dress offering breathable comfort at accessible pricing—ideal for warm days when simplicity and ease matter.

Fit

Mesh knit drapes softly and has natural stretch. This short-sleeve dress likely fits semi-fitted or relaxed; should be comfortable true to size without constriction.

Quality

Everlane's cotton mesh is casual-quality knit. Adequate construction for everyday wear, though not investment-level durability. Expect some pilling or fading with frequent washing.

Price check

138 USD is good value for a casual knit dress in a familiar brand. Competitive for warm-weather workhorses that need regular laundering.

Best for

Someone seeking a comfortable, low-maintenance dress for warm weather, casual work settings, or frequent-travel packing.

Care

Machine wash cool or cold, tumble dry low; mesh knits are prone to pilling but remain functional through repeated washing.

Fit check: Everlane

Varies by line

Everlane has no single direction: the slim tees and shirts run trim and a touch short, the deliberately relaxed pieces (sweaters, wide pants, jackets) run large, and denim sits true to size.

Men's reviewers report the tees and shirts cut slim and short — "their fits are generally slimmer" — and advise moving up a size if between sizes. Women's owners report the opposite on the relaxed styles: one long-term reviewer says "Everlane does typically run a little large, for the most part," sizing down in cashmere sweaters, trousers, and jackets, and calling some wide-leg pants extremely large. Denim and chinos are the stable middle — reviewers take their usual size. The consistent thread is that fit tracks the cut of each line, not the label, so owners lean on Everlane's per-garment measurements.

Sizing advice: Order your usual size in jeans and chinos, size up in the slim tees and fitted shirts if between sizes, and size down in the boxy sweaters, relaxed pants, and jackets unless you want the full oversized look.

What owners report about Everlane dresses

Reviewers find Everlane's dresses comfortable and generally true to size, with cotton t-shirt and tank dresses called out as easy warm-weather picks. Fabric quality holds up: one long-term reviewer reported nothing pilled or shrunk after months of washing and wearing. Fit is style-dependent — try-on reviewers praised the linen and slip styles for comfort but found fuller shirtdress cuts carry a lot of skirt fabric and several styles run long on shorter wearers.

Strengths: Comfortable cotton and linen dresses that run true to size and survive repeated washing without pilling or shrinking.
Watch out for: Fuller cuts and long hemlines work against petite wearers — reviewers around 5'4" flagged excess skirt fabric and lengths that need hemming or heels.
Sizing: Dresses generally run true to size, but shorter wearers should check lengths, which try-on reviewers found long.
