Hill House is a fave of BuzzFeed editors, influencers, and pretty much everyone I see on the street in NYC. The Nap Dress exploded in popularity in the quarantine days when we were all 1) in need of comfy clothes to work from home in that still felt cute and 2) desperate to infuse our wardrobes with Bridgerton vibes. Well, both of those things are still true, and even now that people actually leave the house more, these dresses are still an It item. The first time I wore one of mine to a dinner, TWO other people at the restaurant were wearing it in different prints.
I have two of these from previous seasons and I just feel straight-up gorgeous when I wear them. There’s soooo much stretch in the bodice, making ’em super comfy but also able to perfectly conform to your bust. They run nice and roomy because of this too, so size down if you’re in between sizes. The twirl-worthy midi length is *chef’s kiss*, and those shoulder straps??? The perfect level of ruffle to frame your gorgeous face without being overwhelming, and they don’t slip off your shoulder like the straps on so many dresses in similar styles do. And OF COURSE this has pockets. I will say the cotton and linen styles wrinkle pretty easily, so they’re not the best for travel, which is a bummer. But I will happily wear them for any and all staycations!
Promising review: “Ellie is a dream! First off, this review is long overdue. I own seven nap dresses and they’ve seen me through three pregnancies, breastfeeding, and a breast reduction. I went from a size C to a A cup and it fit both of my bodies. I was 155 lbs while pregnant, now 125 and still fits like a dream. This dress is the pants from The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants. I will say I sized down to XS based on other reviews and am glad I did. Lastly, Frances from the customer support team has helped me get my hands on a number of pieces that appeared to be out of stock. Email their customer support teams. They are so willing to help. Love the dress, love the company, love the customer support! Love it all. ❤️” —Emily G.
