Blue panel cotton dress

Blue panel dress. It was well made and fitted well but did not need pockets on hip which I had removed for a sleeker silhouette.

Blue dress

Ordered on line expecting to return it. But its a keeper. It's an amazing fit and colour and looks so more expensive than it is. True to size - 12 is a good fit. A dress you can dress up or down. Love it.

Nice colour

No, I don't recommend this

The dress isn’t really a great fit but I will adjust it, the fabric is a bit “tent material” but it’s easier to keep than return and it will suit the occasion!

Lovely dress

Lovely dress in crisp cotton. Square neckline and wide straps so you can wear a bra. Elasticated back so it fits well but quite tight so if you’re at the top end of your size I’d move up a size

Gorgeous dress, well designed and easy to wear

Yes, I recommend this

Beautiful dress, the panelled cut, paired with the fabric, means it holds it's shape well. A beautiful timeless design - very flattering. I would love to see this dress in other colours too, and in a petite fitting. I'm 5ft 1" and did need to shorten the hem, and adjust the bodice, but I loved the dress so much, I went ahead and made the adjustments. I ordered the dress for a short notice, smart casual gathering, and felt very comfortable wearing it. I hope more colours (emerald or sage perhaps), and sizing options might be available in the future, would definitely buy again.

Elegant dress - odd fabric.

Yes, I recommend this

Nicely shaped dress with pockets! Odd fabric - what I imagine parachutes are made of. But it’s a nice colour which works well with white and cream.

Great dress (black). The fabric ensures the skirt sits well. Waist defining. Nice square neck and back. Wide straps to conceal bra. I had lots of compliments. Very pleased.

Stylish dress

Yes, I recommend this

This is a stylish dress with flattering seaming and is a beautiful deep blue colour. I am size 12 in M&S dresses, sometimes 14 but the size 12 in this fits me perfectly. The straps are wide enough to wear a bra. The fabric doesn’t have a cotton feel to it but that did not put me off. It is easy to iron and can be worn casually or dressed up.
