LBD with a star!

Yes, I recommend this

Very pleased with dress. It is a perfect fit (size 12) and length. The fabric is lovely, and the slightly draped style is very flattering. It will look good "dressed up" with heels, or a more casual look.

Little black dress

Yes, I recommend this

I'm between a 14 /16 and found the 14 a little too tight for me and a little bit short although its really fitted and gives you a good shape so I was tempted to keep it. I ordered the 16 which is a better fit for me but doesn't just skim your curves in the same way. Its onlly just long enough and sits just on the knee I'm 5' 5". However it's good to have the short sleeves and looks smart. I can see me wearing this for different occasions from smart with jewellery and heels to with a cardigan and flats.

Disappointing

No, I don't recommend this

I loved the look of this dress and when it came the material felt good and dress was well finished. Unfortunately, it felt two sizes too small! I am a 14/16 and sent for the size 14. I could not get in it! I returned the dress and sent for a size 16. It was still far too small on the hips and stomach. A size 18 would have been too big on the top. I had to give up and return the item for a refund. Such a shame as I loved the style of this dress.

Comfortable to wear, looks smart, not 100% sure about the inset panels but they are not hugely noticeable.

LBD found at last.

Yes, I recommend this

I have been searching for a little black dress for many weeks. Yes - Really. I have found a super style/quality fit and length in this dress. It fits my size 10 figure perfectly. It's the right length for my 5ft 3" height, just below the knee. The quality is in the type of fabric used for this dress.Well lined with a lovely long zip. So easy to step into. The style is both Classic and figure flattering. Haven't worn it yet but I know this will be suitable for many occasions, day or evening. What more could you ask of M & S. Keep them coming.

Zip broke immediately on trying the dress so had to return it. Can't comment any further as never actually got to wear it.

LBD

Yes, I recommend this

I really like this dress. The detail fitting it into the waist suits my shape. It is not perfect. As other reviewers noted, the sleeves are tight ( and not at all as loose as shown in the photographs of the live model). I took note of the comments about the short length and ordered a regular length even though I usually take short or petite fitting. I am glad I did. It is just above my knees. The only thing I dislike is that the lining is non-stretch, while the dress fabric includes elastene and therefore has some stretch to it. So really I am wearing the lining and not the dress. Why can't M&S line such dresses with their fine jersey lingerie fabric?

Yes, I recommend this

Love this dress, so comfy to wear and good quality material. If I was to order again I think it would be in a regular length as a little short on me even though I am only 5.4 ins in height.

Was very tight for a 'shift dress'

No, I don't recommend this

I ordered a few different black dresses for work, all in the same size, but this was really tight! I would describe this as 'bodycon' not 'shift'. Had to send back.

A little disappointing

Yes, I recommend this

Unfortunately the fit was a little too snug. However it would have been even more disappointing if the fit had been right because one sleeve was not properly fitted. Both sleeves were a little tight too; not good if you are fit & have muscles!

Almost, but not quite.

Yes, I recommend this

If only this had been a couple of inches longer and the hem had been straight I would have kept it. It is great that M&S offer dresses in different lengths but unfortunate that their stock-keeping is so poor.

Little Black Dress!

No, I don't recommend this

Thought this was going to be a perfect little number to include in the little black dress collection! Style is lovely and well made but rather small for a size 12 and I am an average size 12...so very disappointed and it was returned unfortunately!

Black Dress

Yes, I recommend this

I ordered this dress in two sizes for comparison, as we all know that each item varies depending on country of make. My usual size was too small, and the next size too big. Both sizes looked strange around the hip area (rather wide) and the length was shorter than I had anticipated. Both dresses were returned. The material was good however.

Just right

Yes, I recommend this

Ordered on line at very short notice and delivered efficiently to store. I am 10 or 12 but 10 was a generous fit, and long is just below knee on me at 5'4". Just as well as 10 long was all that was available! In fact, just right thankfully. Happened to be a better fit and style than a couple of more expensive dresses in a bigger size. This is a great price for a smart, lined and practical dress - useful to have in wardrobe for the odd formal occasion.
