- ADAnn D.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars9 months agoPretty Pink
I’ve been looking for a pink dress for a while and nothing tickled my fancy. Nitty Gritty came along and I thought about it for a bit before I pounced, but it wasn’t until I wore it the first time that I realized that this was the pink dress that I had been waiting for. Up close it has quite a lot of red, but all those little white dots turn the overall effect onto pink. The fabric is soft and pretty lightweight and it layers well in winter and is going to be terrifically comfortable in summer.
- KCKathleen C.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars9 months agoSo much visual texture!
I really love Knitty Gritty! The fabric is on the sturdier side and the design gives a feel of depth and texture. The colors lend themselves to many possibilities for coordinating outfits in different ways. The sleeves on my size (large) seem a bit narrower than on my other Zuri dresses.
- KSKathy S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoPrettier in person!
The pink in the photo is toned down by the other colors in this lovely print. I love the way the pattern interweaves and flows. I chose the long length. As with every Zuri I have added to my collection, this dress is not only a statement piece, but a go-to for comfortable everyday wear.
- KHKim H.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 months agoStyle, Comfort and Easy Maintenance!
Knotty Gritty is my 12th Zuri. I selected it because the pattern appealed to me, which is why I chose them all. Little did I know when I ordered my first Zuri, First Light, , how comfortable the garments were. Or how perfectly they washed, or that they required no ironing, or that the colors never bleed or fade, or how versatile they were. The workmanship is excellent with seams finished and I have never even lost a button!
Zuri customer service is second to none. I can’t recommend this company highly enough! Are there more Zuri’s in my future? I certainly hope so!
