My staple little black dress
"This dress is such an easy staple to reach for - Universal Standard jersey never fails. Good quality, good design, with style that is classic instead of trendy and comfort all rolled up into one."

The Helen Liquid Jersey Shift Dress is all about the subtle details. This dress is designed with a hi-low hem, that hits right around the knee, to achieve that distinctive cocoon shape. The Helen Shift Dress has simple details that make it slightly more sophisticated - like a wide crew neck and just a little more sleeve. Also, we have to mention the hidden-side pockets because of course. Proof that classic can still be elevated.

Reviews
A lovely, comfortable and stylish
"A lovely, comfortable and stylish dress. The fabric hangs and moves well and the color is rich and deep."
Great cut!
"This dress is so flattering. It hides all the things you want to hide but doesn’t make you look like a blob. It’s a great silhouette from the side. I love wearing this with a blousy trench coat. It looks equally good with a ballet flat, boot or pump."
"Beautiful color and nice fit. Very comfortable ."
Mixed bag
"Love the purple color, it's comfortable. I think it's a little too drapey, and holy shit the pockets go so low. Keeping it, but not sure I'd get another color"
Liquid
"Love the liquid jersey dress, so comfortable and the pockets are great"
Love the silhouette, hate the fabric—please make this in cupro!
"My title pretty much says it all. The shape of the Helen is pretty much perfect for my curvy hourglass figure. I'm just really not a fan of US's liquid jersey fabric at all. It clings in all the wrong places and doesn't hold up well over time. I'd LOVE to see this dress in their cupro (or maybe even linen—a gal can dream!) fabric instead, and I'd buy it in multiple colors."
Love the dress, just hate the pockets
"Don't get me wrong, I love having pockets. But these are SO bunchy and do not lay flat. They're thick, and hit right at the widest part of my hip. So no matter what I do the pockets are just obnoxious. Love the rest of the dress - the neckline, the length, the fabric is lovely. Just wish the pockets were different. That said, I've had this dress in the v-neck style for a couple of years and already knew it would have this issue and still bought a second one, so the rest of it overcomes the pocket issue. It just frustrates me as it seems to be an obvious issue that can't bother only me."
Gorgeous giant
"Loved the dress and the fabric, but it was waaay too big, even in my regular US size. Returned. Smaller sizes were sold out."
Nice Dress
"This dress is very well cut. It fits much better than expected on my 3X body."
