OAK side pleat maxi dress | $130 at Shopbop
(seen on me here, here, and here)
I would be remiss if I didn’t chime in quickly to let you know that my favorite OAK NYC side pleat maxi dress is back in stock in black at Shopbop (in all sizes except large). I’m wearing a medium and wouldn’t recommend sizing down/up at all – take your “true” size. It’s oversized in places, but straight from the hips to the bottom hem, so it still maintains some shape. The black version is 100% cotton and made in the US.
I HIGHLY recommend this dress. I’ve had it for more than a year and wear it a lot. In fact, I almost lived in it last week. It’s great for lounging around, but also for being “out” in a casual setting. I wash/dry mine and haven’t had any problems with it AT all.
Get it if you’ve been wanting it! This dress sells out fast…** while I was writing this post a Large popped back in stock (someone must have let their cart expire)!
I want this SO bad! Unfortunately, no cash on hand right now. Sucks! Fingers crossed that it hangs around til next payday or my birthday. (July 18)
Thank you for posting about this dress!!!! I stupidly didn’t pick it up last year and when I’ve tried recently my size L was always gone. I just ordered it!!!! Can’t wait for it to get here!!!
yay!!! so glad you got it 🙂 hope you love it!
Do you have any experience with other OAK items? I’m curious about this one and how it will fit/flow: http://www.oaknyc.com/oak-sleeveless-band-collar-shirt-w.html
i do not. although just from what i’ve read/seen, i would imagine things run a bit big/oversized. my dress certainly is… love that shirt so much! it looks like a wonderful basic.
Thanks! Good to know it’s most likely oversized. I’ve been wanting a shirt dress but the collars always look overly preppy on me. Hoping this look is more my style.
