I’m very excited for this post because it’s combining two of my favorite things: dresses and Quince! I discovered Quince last year and it has been one of my favorite places to shop every since. I’m continually impressed by the quality of each piece, especially considering how affordable it all is!!
If you haven’t heard me rave about them before, Quince is a direct-to-consumer retail website that carries clothing, leather goods, accessories, home decor, bed and bath, and more. Because there is no middle man, their prices are a fraction of the cost of other brands, but you still get really high quality and sustainably made products.
In addition to eco-conscious production and compostable packaging, I appreciate that they stick to really classic styles. They focus on pieces that can be worn many different ways with countless different outfits for years and years to come. And it all feels SO much more expensive than it is.

Quince Dresses Under $100
For reference, I am 5’2″ and I am typically a small. I usually wear a size 2 or 4 in dresses and I wear a size 27 in jeans. Hope that helps!
Quince 100% Organic Cotton Smocked Midi Dress
Have you ever wanted a nap dress without the price tag? Instead of $150, this version is only $70!! It’s made from 100% organic cotton that’s super lightweight and perfect for summer. It has the signature flutter sleeves with a smocked bodice that has a lot of stretch. The skirt also flows away from the body which makes it a great option for pregnancy and postpartum. I got a size small.
Quince 100% European Linen Smocked Midi Dress
Truthfully, I don’t love the flutter sleeves on the nap dress. But I love everything else about it, so the fact that this dress doesn’t have them?! GIVE ME EVERY COLOR!!! This version is also made with 100% European linen, which is my favorite fabric that Quince makes. It feels so much more expensive than $70!!
I got a size small and it fits perfectly. The straps are a great size for me, the smocked bodice is super comfy, and the skirt is actually a classic midi length on me. And the light pink is not see-through! Obsessed.
Quince 100% Organic Cotton Tiered Maxi Dress
Anyone recognize this dress too?! If you got this at Anthropologie, it would be $100 more There are a few differences though – this version doesn’t come in any prints and it also only comes in regular sizing (no petite or plus options). I got a size small and it definitely runs bigger than the other Quince dresses I tried. I need to size down to an XS for a better fit in the shoulders, waist, and length.
That being said, you can choose from 5 really pretty color options and it has a snap!! So if you’re worried about the neckline, there is a snap sewn in to help you keep it shut. Easy peasy!
Quince Flowknit Breeze Fit & Flare Dress
I wasn’t sure how this one would look on me since I’m so short, but I actually LOVE IT. First, the Flowknit fabric is stretchy, moisture-wicking and sooo soft. Seriously, it feels like pajamas! I also think the $49.50 price tag is a total steal, especially considering how versatile it is. I can already see myself wearing it with sandals, sneakers, to dinner, to run errands, you name it!
Quince Tencel Rib Knit Maxi Slip Dress
I got this dress last year and it’s very different from my normal vibe… but at just $49.50, why not add something sexy to my closet?! While it hugs every curve, it’s also very comfortable and stretchy. Honestly, it has so much stretch that I think it would be really cute with a baby bump! The straps are adjustable and it’s a little long on me, but it works when I bunch it around my waist and pair it with a little heel. It also comes in 6 different colors and it’s machine washable! I have a size small.
