This was a perfect fit and a very lovely dress., I removed the tie bow at the front, and it did not look too young. Very pretty and cool material, lots of compliments when wearing it.

Lovely dress fits ok but a bit crinkled at the back due to the drop waist but looks ok with a crochet waistcoat.

Love the style

Yes, I recommend this

It took ages to deliver, got it on store collection which was a very easy process. Ordered petite but find it still long on the torso. I like the dress so rather than returning i altered it so it will fit comfortably. Liked the puffer sleeves & the collar.

Nice Summer day dress. Great light fabric. Very well made. I am 5:5, size 12 and this size fit perfectly. I don't usually like elasticated dresses but this one fits very well.

Versatile dress

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

Versatile dress to wear in spring with shoes or boots but will carry me through summer with sandals & trainers. Ordered the tall length. At 5 10’ some M&S dresses or skirts in standard can look a bit mumsy/worky on me. I’d like to see more available in tall.

Beautiful dress that caught my eye when going into M & S. I love gingham and had to have it. It wasnt bought for any particular occasion just because i liked it! Gingham always looks so fresh.

Very comfortable dress to wear but not sure if I will keep it as a previous reviewer commented I am in my 70s and really more suitable for a younger person.

I LOVE this dress!

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

I love, love, love this dress. The style is so different from those of late, and I love "different". I also love that you can just pull this dress on and off - no zips, and no fiddly buttons. Furthermore, the fabric has a lovely light feel to it, and will be ideal for wearing in the summer, and packing for holidays. BUT, I feel I would need to be 40/50 years younger to wear it ( I am in my late 70s!😱) All of my adult life, I have worn M&S clothing, from "Junior Miss" , through to Per Una, sadly, nowadays there is nothing for loyal, older customers. Maybe this is a gap in the market worth looking into . . . . . PLEASE.
