This dress is my traveling dress staple. It's 100% cotton, so it's cool and breathable. The sleeves keep me warm on the plane, but not too warm (and also keep me from having to wear a cardigan, since I just have to take it off during the security checkpoint). The only downside is that I have to remove the belt to go through security, and then the dress is so shapeless (since it's essentially a muumuu) that I always get a pat-down by the female security attendant. It's weird, but whatever. The dress is worth it.
