Everlane Review Japanese GoWeave Mini Slip Dress

When I first reviewed Everlane's Japanese GoWeave back zip tee (here) I liked the GoWeave fabric though not so much the fit of the tee.  So when I saw that Everlane came out with a mini slip dress in the same fabric I jumped at the chance to try it.  The mini slip dress looked like the perfect length for my petite-ish frame (of 5'4").  

First off I got it in a size 6, which is one size bigger than my normal Everlane size of 4 but I wanted a looser fit, especially for the white one I chose.  The fit overall was pretty good, though a tiny bit snug in the butt area.  The straps are adjustable so you can lengthen or shorted according to your height.

I really like the look of this mini slip dress but the white one is quite sheer.  You could definitely see my light colored underwear underneath and the shirt as well.  I did consider getting the black one instead, but then realized that the care instructions for the Japanese Goweave is to hand wash it (and I'm just not the type of gal to hand wash my clothing).  So I thought it best not to repurchase it.  

But if you don't mind handwashing clothing, and you like the look of this mini slip dress, I think the black one is a winner.  Otherwise, my official Everlane dress for this summer is the cotton belted shirtdress I reviewed last week, and I can't recommend it enough.  You can find all my unsponsored Everlane reviews here.
