Wore on vacation over my bathing suit for a kayaking excursion while on vacation

Comfy, easy to wear and still look cute. Thought about buying.

I wore this for a party, biking, and climbing! Ended up buying it because it's become my go-to dress.

I may buy this one. Just rent it. You’ll be happy you’re wearing this and not yoga pants!

Extremely comfortable to wear. Easy to sweat in

Loooove this dress! Really considering buying it. It is a bit long on me but I am on the (way) shorter side. It's super comfortable and I can see it being a go-to this summer.

Title: Disappointed with Madewell's Black Activewear Dress Review: I recently had the opportunity to wear Madewell's Black Activewear Dress for a coffee date with my best friend at a local flower nursery. I had high hopes for this dress, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. Here's my honest review: First and foremost, the fit of the dress was less than flattering. While I was looking for something that would accentuate my figure, this dress didn't quite do the job. It seemed a bit too long, which made me feel a bit frumpy rather than chic. I was hoping for a more tailored and flattering silhouette, but it just didn't deliver. Another issue I encountered was with the top of the dress, specifically near the neckline. It simply didn't lay flat as it should have, which was quite disappointing. It gave the dress an unpolished look and detracted from the overall appeal. I believe attention to detail is crucial, especially when it comes to the design and construction of a garment, and unfortunately, this aspect was lacking. Moreover, the inside lining of the dress was incredibly uncomfortable. The purpose of activewear is to provide comfort and ease of movement, but this dress missed the mark. The lining was unbelievably uncomfortable. It's disappointing when a supposedly well-made dress doesn't prioritize comfort. I truly wanted to love this dress, but with its lackluster fit, the issue with the neckline, and the uncomfortable lining, it was difficult to overlook these flaws. As a consumer, I appreciate quality and attention to detail and unfortunately, this dress did not meet those expectations. In conclusion, Madewell's Black Activewear Dress left me feeling underwhelmed. The unflattering fit, the issue with the neckline, and the uncomfortable lining made it hard to enjoy wearing this dress. I believe there are better options available that prioritize both style and comfort.

Wore several times

Great fit! Perfect for hot weather- the shorts had pockets. Wore it while biking

This dress fit perfectly and could be kept super casual or dressed up a bit for a low-key dinner date. I recommend just wearing pasties with the dress

This dress fit perfectly and so comfortably. It’s not too tight which is nice. I love the high neckline! Highly recommend

It's a great addition to running wardrobe.

I have rented this three seperate times and keep finding more reasons to wear it. It just works for everything. Errands, or dressed up with a cardigan and sneakers for a lunch date. Such a great fit and always get compliments.

Love this! Almost as good as the outdoor voices exercise dress. The only down fall is if you have larger chest, you will have to pull up the top

I have tried so many athletic dresses and this is the best one! It's not too tight and not too short! I will definitely be wearing this the rest of the summer!

I am living in this casual summer dress!!

I wore this dress constantly! Either running errands, under a cardigan for work, even dressed up for date night. I ended up buying it from another retailer because I loved it so much. Fits true to size and accommodated my 6month baby bump as well.

It does show a bit of side boob

Wish it had pockets

I liked this a lot and would consider renting again in a small for long days outside. It cut in more than the photos show on the sides of the top and it not as supportive in the waist as I imagined it would be. I wouldn't wear for an actual workout as the top was not as supportive as I thought it would be. Extremely comfortable.

I normally wear a size S in dress but sized down because this dress was pretty stretchy. The XS was a little too small but the dress itself was exactly as described. HOWEVER! If you intend to wear this dress for a long day, (especially if you’re day drinking/will need to use the restroom often) be forewarned that it is not easy to get in and out of! The only way to get into this dress is to take both straps over your head, and because of the built-in shorts you have to do that every time you go to the bathroom. I ended up with deodorant all over the sides because of all that maneuvering. If you have a bladder of steel though, this dress is for you!

Wore this for a day at Disneyworld and it was great for a day of going on water rides! Comfy, flattering, dried quickly. There is no padding in the top but I took the pads out of a bikini top to put in the top so I didn't have to wear a bra with it. Loved it!

Dress was a good fit and perfect for everyday errands. I enjoyed wearing it and it was very comfortable. The only “con” was that the straps are really thin and get twisted up when pulling the dress on and off. But I don’t think that’s a big deal.

Was ok, wore the day before a bike race to packet pick up, very comfortable, a bit tight around the belly and ended up stretching out, didn't love the way it fit me, probably could have used a sports bra

I really liked this dress! I feel like I should have sized down for a little more support (no built-in bra), but it was super comfortable and I loved that it had shorts underneath. I wore this for a long roadtrip and then again for a semi-active day of shopping and walking around downtown. Team RTR Review

The activewear dress trend is a trend for a very clear reason: comfort. This dress is just incredibly comfortable. I am a size 12 and ordered an XL to be safe, but might have been able to get away with a L. I would have given this 5 stars for comfort alone, but as others have said there is no support whatsoever for breasts and there were small gaps on both sides . I wanted it for around the house, so this wasn't an issue for me.

I rented this thinking it'd be cute for walks and to run errands for a sporty look, but it looked way more formal on me than it does on the model. I didn't end up wearing but it fit well, could have sized down.

This dress is super cute and great idea, but functionally a few cons. The shorts under rolled up a lot thought and the straps were constantly tangled in my hair when taking on and off.

Just looked big on me. I'm usually a medium. I wish i would have gotten a smaller size

While super cute, the neckline and dress itself offered no support for my fuller bust and there was substantial gaping at the sides of the neckline where if I would have worn this as activewear, my chest would have escaped the dress. For reference I'm usually anywhere between in 38DD - 36E.

The cut of the dress looks to be cute but awful on if you have a chest. Sized up to medium thinking it would be a cute pregnancy look, but I was very wrong and didn’t wear at all

This is a strange dress. It’s made from bathing suit material and has integrated shorts. It’s a one piece like a jumpsuit but it has an attached skirt. You have to get in from the top and adjust away. It never laid flat or sat right on me so I ended up not wearing it at all. The body felt too long and the straps never sat right on me. It just looked like it needed smoothing out and adjusting all the time. Nothing like the pics show. It’s a definite no!

Fit really weird. It'd be cuter if it wasn't so long

So comfy, but it comes down really low on sides of chest. Almost needs something underneath, but regular sports bras don't work. It's a weird fit.

I normally love halters, but the way this one was weirdly open around the armpit area and just exposed too much side-boob. Still cute with a jacket or sports bra.

It went below my knees. Couldn’t wear it.

There’s no padding and the fabric isn’t tight at all
