This dress is so soft and comfortable! I am 5'4", 140 lbs. The weight of this material is medium. It is light enough to wear in the summer, but heavy enough to be paired with a denim jacket for spring and fall. Because it is early spring here and still in the 50's, I wore it with a denim jacket and wedge boots. It was perfect. Once it warms up, I will pair it with a sandal or sneaker for a spring/summer look. I am a teacher and it was perfect for both classroom/outdoor wear, while still giving me the business casual look I need to have. I can not express enough how soft this dress is. I would recommend this product!
