Red checked dress

No, I don't recommend this

I am very happy with the purchased as it is a lovely well made, high quality item. I am happy with the size because I tried a similar one on in the shop and I wanted a loose fitting straight dress. However I am size 14/16 and the dress I ordered was size 22. Had I been size 22 it definitely wouldn’t have fitted at all.

red dress

No, I don't recommend this

ordered this dress in the sale, I have one already in another colour. not a size 18 as stated, as when I put them together with my other one, it was much smaller and longer, very disappointed so had to return it.

Not flattering

No, I don't recommend this

I have been happy with the clothes I've bought from the Curve range, but this was very unflattering - emphasized my size. The fabric was lovely, though- great feel and good drape. But am sending back.

Great for cooler days

Yes, I recommend this

I love this dress, it is very suitable for cooler spring days. It is soft and the colour block pattern is bang up to date. Bought a size 20 a bit larger than normal but wanted it to be roomy. Looks great with tights and boots. Very pleased with the price too.

Perfect winter to spring dress

Yes, I recommend this

I wore this within days of buying it for a special birthday lunch with six of my lady friends, it was so comfortable to wear, I am size 20 and it was true to size for me, coming to just below my knees. I bought it in both colours and am now looking forward to wearing the red version soon. Very good value for money, in my opinion it is the perfect dress for any occasion. The only slight improvement I can suggest is it would be even better with a pocket or two.

Shapeless

No, I don't recommend this

I really liked the look of this dress. It was well made and the material was lovely and cosy for cool spring days. Length and sleeves good. Unfortunately the body of the dress was very unflattering on me and was too big, even though i ordered my usual size. Will be returned.
