Patagonia Women's Fortuity Flannel Dress

Great versitile dress
February 05, 2012

I love this dress! It's very comfortable without being either too loose or too fitted but still has a nice shape to it. The pockets are perfect size and placement. For our Texas winters, I layer the dress with a long-sleeve top and leggings underneath and it looks great with a pair of boots. In warmer weather it will pair great with casual sandals or flip-flops. The dress is on the short side - perfect for me, since I'm only 5' tall, but if you're taller, you'd be wise to take that into consideration, but it would look cute over capri leggings/ tights or jeans.

Didn't work for me

When I found these on sale, I was thrilled. The fabric is soft and both colors are beautiful. However, the style did not work for me. I wanted to layer them for winter over long sleeves and pants, and unfortunately they were too long and too narrow for me to use them that way. Others may be able to pull off that look!

Not just a dress....

I bought this dress to wear as a long top over my skinny jeans - I'm not quite brave enough to wear that short a dress these days! Its works really well as it fits nicely and is long enought to cover my bum. I've been wearing it through winter with a long sleeve black top underneath (colombia 3/4 sleeve also bought from Altrec). I've also not seen anyone else wearing anything like it so its nice to have something unique. And.... it dries really quickly and doesn't need ironing so it fits well with a busy lifestyle.
