American Apparel was gracious enough to send me a package of goodies recently, and it included a two pocket frocks; and one in solid red and one striped.
This is one design that can be styled in so many different ways, and is incredibly versatile and flattering. The dress features the transitional 3/4 length sleeve and boat neck; worn with the ruched tube bra, you have an instant and incredibly sexy layering piece.
I would recommend you buy this dress one size up from your usual – the bunching fabric on the arms and hips is a lovely effect on the body. For $41, this is one piece that should be in your regular SS10 rotation.

As far as I know, this only comes in one size…
I have the black stripe and though I am totally in love, there are some serious quality issues. The black rubs off so the dress becomes stained under the arms and along the sides. It also discolours your skin. Very, very lame.

01.13.10 @ 4:17 pmThere are quite a few mentions of the reviews of the dress on the AA website that I saw after. I’m feeling crazy lazy about contacting the company, and I am doubtful I would get a very helpful response in store. Annoying.
