A comfortable black maxi dress isn't a want — it's a need. Target is selling the cutest Rib-Knit Maxi Bodycon Dress on sale for only $16 (yes, you read that price correctly), that looks pretty darn similar to a more expensive dress from Loft (that's also on sale!). The retailer has been carrying the cutest fits lately, spanning from this Anthropologie style tank top to this perfect summer midi dress .

Currently, this sleeveless bodycon dress from Universal Thread comes in eight colorways and is available in sizes XS to 4X — make sure to act fast though, because many of the plus sizes have already sold out. The thick cotton dress cuts off at ankle-length and showcases a scoop neck. The stretchy material and subtly sexy side slit allow for a simple, pull-over design.

With over 200 5-star ratings, customers described this dress as "stunning," "super comfortable," and "excellent for the price range." Shoppers commended the outfit for its versatility, noting that it's an ideal casual dress for everyday wear throughout the summer. If you want to take it into the fall months, you can throw on your favorite blazer or jean jacket .

"Obsessed with this dress!," one reviewer wrote. "I own it in 3 colors. I’m currently 8 months pregnant and my pre-pregnancy size fits because this dress is both stretchy and form fitting!" Like Target's, Loft's lookalike dress is mostly made of cotton, sleeveless, and features a side slit — just at a higher price point.

The Loft Perfect Ribbed Tank Midi Dress may fall a bit higher on your leg than Target's, but offers the same scoop neck and flattering design. The dress is available in petite, regular, or tall versions. Shoppers love that it's "soft and nice quality," "just the right length," and "easy to dress up or down." Luckily, the price for this dress is not incredibly steep, so whether you buy Target's or Loft's, you're making the right decision for your wardrobe!
