Lovely dress

Yes, I recommend this

After reading the reviews I sized down to a 16. I was pleased with the dress but decided it was a bit big, so I ordered a 14. I am really pleased it is a better fit and looks great. I am looking forward to wearing this lovely dress on holiday. It comes to just above my ankles and I am 5.1.

Great maxi dress

Ordered this dress online but wasn’t sure how it would look on. Really pleased with how it looks and fits. Bought to wear on holiday in May. I am usually a size 14 but having read the reviews I downsized to a 12 and it fits perfectly,

Great dress for summer living

Yes, I recommend this

I bought this in an 18 and was so pleased when it arrived. I am 18-20 for reference but the 18 was too big so I reordered the 16 and that was great. You have to work the straps out a bit but it’s such a great dress crease resistant and stylish. It falls just above my ankles.

Quality not as expected

No, I don't recommend this

Had hoped to like this dress based on reviews. However, I felt that the material was quite thin and not worth the price. I also didn't feel it was that flattering on me so it was returned.

Awful Fabric

No, I don't recommend this

When I received the dress I initially thought that I’d been sent the wrong one, as the fabric is awful in both look and feel, sadly. It has a texture to it, which isn’t obvious unless you really enlarge the photos (which I hadn’t noticed when ordering) and is quite thin. It feels nothing like cotton/modal…and I missed the polystyrene part!…more like something on the cheaper end of manmade. I didn’t try it on as there was no point. I was surprised by the glowing reviews, but thought I’d risk it as I could not find the dress in store. Seeing it IRL though, I think it is definitely at the wrong price point too.

A very useful easy to wear holiday dress

Yes, I recommend this

I like the fabric, it hangs nicely and will be easy to change the look for beach to evening with a few bold accessories. Very pleased with this purchase. I’m between a size 14 and 16 but the 14 is the better fit around the armholes.

Love this! Cannot wait for summer as it’s the perfect flowing easy on, evening or late afternoon throw on and look smart but casual dress. I match mine with a denim jacket. Looks fab.
