prAna  Railay Pocket Dress

Love this dress! It’s the ultimate hiking dress. Keeping you stylish while sweating it out! I brought it on a trip to the red rocks in Sedona and kept getting compliments. I purchased a small. I have an athletic build with wide shoulders and narrow hips 148lbs. Could go smaller but I like the baggy fit.

I thought this dress was so cute from the pictures, and I really like this fabric in other outfits I have. I ordered a medium (5’6”, 150 lbs, athletic), and it’s a great fit for the waist, hips, etc., but the top is very odd! The arm holes are very large, causing the sides of the top to hang away from me. Even if I were to wear a cute bralette under the dress, it would still be obvious that it is ill-fitting. It’s almost as if the top of the dress were cut as an XL and the rest of the dress is a medium. I considered sizing down, but I’m unlikely to have any luck with the lower half in a small. I’m returning the dress.

This dress is amazing! If you are a climber/aerialist/trail worker/enthusiast of an activity that builds shoulders and lats, this dress is for you- I disagree with reviews that say the fit is off- it fits SO well if you are active with your upper body. The style is super cute- love the pockets, the COLOR, the awesome fabric, and the wrap style. I an also absolutely thrilled that there are not futzy shorts attached. If I want to wear shorts underneath I can pick ones that fit me, otherwise I get to enjoy the breeze, comfort, and freedom of a dress made for hiking and outdoor activities! Please keep making this one!

I wanted to love this dress, but the fit in the bust was incredibly loose. There were several inches of extra fabric under each armpit. I am 5'6", 150#, 36A and purchased a Medium. The skirt portion fit me perfectly, but there was so much extra fabric in the top as if the top was cut several sizes larger. The pockets were also a little awkward because of how unnecessarily big they were.

Great travel dress! I wouldn’t wear it on an airplane because I just prefer to wear long pants but on a car ride, on vacation, over a swimsuit, it’s so comfy and cute! The material is INCREDIBLE

Cute dress but the waist sat too high on me. Others have complained that the top is too loose. That was not my experience. However the bottom was a bit large and boxy on my hips. I know if I had kept it, I would have been constantly fidgeting because of how the top sat. If I had sized up to have a bit more room in the top, the bottom would have looked very odd and oversized. For reference, I am 5’6” with measurements 34-26-36. I wear a 2 in Prana pants and purchased an XS. Bummer to have to return but I’m sure this dress will work for others with different proportions.

Im obsessed with this dress. Beautiful and comfy. Perfect for vacation.

Very cute dress, easy to throw on over biker shorts or a swimsuit! I was worried about the reviews that mentioned the top being too large/saggy, so I sized down to a Medium. For context, I've been a true Large in other items lately, but had also sized down in the Railay Oversized Shirt as well. I don't have a large chest so I was heeding other reviews' concerns. After receiving the item, I probably could have used the Large without feeling like I was swimming in it, and it may have given me a little more length - I can't wear long biker shorts under it without them poking out from behind at least. I would definitely buy again in more colors and try the larger size out next time! Overall love the Railay line - please keep it forever!!

Was a bit skeptical after reading the reviews abt the bust and arm holes but I took a chance and I’m glad I did. It is an unusual cut and the arm holes are big and deep. I wear mine with a black racer back jog bra and it looks fine. I’m 5’2,100 lbs and a 36 bust so I got the size XS, was worried it might be too small in the bust but it was almost too big. Love the pockets! The “belt” actually works on me too since it sits above my actual waist. I usually can’t do the built in belts but again it works for me. I get compliments when I wear it.

I was a little hesitant based on some reviews about sizing and looking like a sack but gave it a shot. Luckily I found it lovely on both accounts. The cinch in the middle really accentuates your waist. The sizing and fitting seemed proportional and good to me. I got a size small and I’m typically a small. I love the color juniper green. The bottom flap/asymmetrical style is so cute. The material is great for summer and I love that’s it’s UV rated. My biggest complaint and wish..why no built in shorts?? I feel like you especially need in this dress bc of the flap. I was super surprised this dress didn’t have them. If these had built in shorts, this dress would be perfect! As is, I still like a lot! I want to grab willow when/if it goes on sale.
