5 reviews for “Frida” Dress Navy Organic Cotton
Description
A loose, comfortable, yet dreamy and whimsical item that comes in every size is hard to come by – as usually oversized items have a minimal or sporty feel. Layered to everyone’s delight and puffy sleeves for days, the Frida is as girly dreamy chic as it is lightweight and wearable in any situation.
Product fit details
- Made from soft satin cotton in navy, the dress lands in between knee-length and midi depending on your height and has two asymmetrical tiers – the bottom one looking like a frill. The bodice has a lace path at the neckline, can be both off-shoulder and up and has puffed sleeves that end in a ruffle as well. The overall silhouette is oversized and poofy, but looks great with a belt as well.
- Patricia is wearing XL and her height is 1.59m
- Standard length from waistline to hem is 60cms (can vary a few cms depending on size, standard length was measured on size XL)
- A soft as butter fully opaque GOTS certified organic cotton with the most beautiful sheen – resembles a medium-thickness satin, but with a bit of a stiffer body and no plastic in sight.
- Features a lace path that can be tied as loosely/tightly as you want to control the depth of the decoltage and even turn it into an off shoulder dress
- Gathers on the sleeves created with elasticated thread for ease of comfort
Psst, wanna know who Frida Kahlo is?
While Mexican artist Frida Kahlo was working at a time before the term ‘feminist art’ existed, her paintings, using a naive folk art style, explored questions of identity, gender, class, race and post-colonialism in Mexican society.
Kahlo is mostly known for her deeply personal self-portraits, and she often translated her own life experiences onto the canvas. Her work is retrospectively seen as feminist because the artist made it legitimate for women to outwardly display their pains, frustrations and passions, and therefore made steps towards making sense of and understanding them. Her conviction and raw talent, has meant she’s become a role model for many.

I got this dress in a different color and I’m obsessed with the fit. Because it’s flowy, I would suggest sizing down – but if you’re unsure, reach out to Patricia and the team. They will make sure you have the fit you want – and they do custom sizing. I am NOT a dress girl, BUT LET ME TELL YOU THIS DRESS IS MAGICAL. I put this dress on and instantly fell in love. SO happy I finally ordered from Loud Bodies. Will be returning to buy more! <3

This is my second Frida and I love this version even more (the sleeves are gorgeous and I could add pockets! Yes to all the pockets!)
My only tiny remark (but it is just me) I find the fabric a little too shiny for my taste. But that’s it, I love the fit, the color, it is also very comfortable to wear And stunning!

The color does not lie on this dress. It’s a true deep blue. I wear an XL and it’s a little big, but I think it’s meant to be belted. I feel SO cute in this dress–the way the dress moves is great for dancing (even if it is in the “work” collection. I haven’t tried layering it yet, but I think the right turtleneck underneath could be super cute and make the dress a little warmer, since it’s quite light.

It’s a great dress, the fabric is super soft and smooth, and the colour is exactly as pictured. The skirt is amazing and super twirly. I love that you can choose how the top fits with the neckline being adjustable. At first I was surprised by how large the ruffle on the cuff seemed to be (I’m not used to wearing big puffy sleeves), but then I got used to it and I felt great!
Regarding fit, it is flowy and (in my opinion) best worn with an accessory to cinch it in. For me, the seam line at the waist does not really line up with where I like to cinch my dresses/tops because I have a large belly so I usually cinch them under my boobs, but that’s not really an issue for me.

I am OBSESSED with this fabric!! I have the Frida shirt and have wanted to order this dress for a long time. My only regret is that I didn’t budget better to order it sooner! I wear with a belt and just love how the fabric feels and flows. I plan on wearing this dress until it’s threadbare.
