I fell in love with this print online, and love it even more in person! The colors are perfect for fall and winter, and the pattern is so interesting. The organic shapes of solid black alongside the forest green dots on black seem to add depth to the pattern. I've worn my Arbor Dress to two orchestral concerts this season already. Looks like I'll be reaching for it often!
For reference, I typically go for a size Medium or 6-8 in dresses, but a size XS fits me best in Zuri.

A beautiful light weight dress that I will wear all year long.

I’ve been looking forward to this fine grain print ever since seeing it in a patchwork bag. The predominant green, along with the secret forest green, are perfect and combine beautifully with the purple and white and dark red. Elegant, restful, serene.
I ordered the longer version to wear with neutral maxi skirts I already have. I like the sweep of the proportions.
Zuri OU2 days agoHi Elaine!
Thank you so much for your beautiful review! We're absolutely thrilled to hear that the Arbor Dress exceeded your expectations after first catching your eye in the patchwork bag! It's wonderful how those little moments of discovery lead to finding pieces you truly love.
What a brilliant idea to style the longer version with your neutral maxi skirts! The sweep of those proportions definitely looks absolutely stunning together.
Thank you for being such a wonderful part of our Zuri community and for sharing your experience with us! <3
Much love,
Ebony from Zuri
https://www.shopzuri.com/ - CPCandra P.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoTrees and Zuri Arbor— Perfect Match!
I love how the black tones down the green, red, purple and dark green in the Arbor fabric—works for me, since I lean more to darker separates in my regular capsule wardrobe (J Jill Wearever and Chicos Travelers bottoms and tanks). The dresses work perfectly and they have been my only clothing purchases for the last couple of months.
I was hesitant to buy Arbor, since I thought it would look like the teal blue of Winds of Change, but the true green comes through.
Note: I am between a Large and XL and I sized up to wear long sleeve T shirts underneath for fall and winter.
- DMDevon M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoThis is my 7th Zuri.
Zuris don't seem to wear out, wash beautifully, and always make me feel spiffy. I have other clothes and love other clothes, but these are just so darned easy to wear anywhere that doesn't require satin & sequins that I'm not sure how I dressed all those years without my zuris. Best of all, they are comfy, but never frumpy and absolutely ageless.
