Very light and pretty. Love the frills. Not too see through. It’s washed and dried nicely and easy to iron. I’m size 12 but ordered 14 for room as have large hips. It fit lovely maybe 12 would be fine too but I hare too tight.

This dress is absolutelly stunning. Had read reviews and must say wasn't sure about the elasticated waistline. I am 5'7 size 18, got both regular and long length to try. Size 18 Long kept the waistline right in place :) it looks so pretty and fresh, one of my new favourites in my summer wardrobe. M&S, please bring in more colours

I fell in love with this dress as soon as I saw it as this was the type of dress I use to wear as a little girl so I was somewhat sceptical!! However I went ahead and ordered it and so glad I did!! It is absolutely gorgeous!! Even more vibrant and brighter than it appears on the monitor!! It is a glowing truth bright white with beautiful white dots all throughout the material as well as the red and blue flowers!! The bottom part of the dress is lined making it not see through which is fabulous!! I ordered the Long length not because I'm tall by any means I'm 5'4" I just wanted to make sure it wouldn't come too far above my knee which it doesn't and I love that!! I showed it to my daughter and she loved it on me so once it passes her approval that's pretty much all I need but I fell in love with it as soon as it arrived in the post!! The material, the quality, the fit, are all brilliant!! Roll on some beautiful weather now to get wearing it!!

Nice but see through

The dress is very pretty, and a perfect fit & length for me (I’m 5’4) but it was see-through and just not worth the £40 I paid for it so I sent it back. If it were better quality material I would have kept it as it would have been a lovely summer dress.

Completely see through top half!

I love this dress but the material is completely see through. The skirt is lined, but not the top. Even a nude bra is visible. So disappointing - I have no choice but to return

I am 5 ft 8 and always buy size 10 at M&S which I did here. The dress is so pretty. Perfect fit and washed really well - didn’t even need to iron! Although it’s white, it’s not see through which I hoped it wouldn’t be for the price. I debated spending this amount but am so glad I did. Love it.

I absolutely adore this dress!

This dress is gorgeous! It is a skater style shape, the top half is fitted, there is an elasticated "shirred" waist, and then the skirt flares out slightly. I am a size 10 and it is true to size. I tried on the dress wearing a nude bra, yes the top half of the dress is see through, but when wearing a nude bra, the bra is not visible. Although the skirt part of the dress is lined, I would have liked the whole dress to be lined as the material is very thin. I am 5'3" and the regular dress falls just above my knees. I love that the dress is not long because it looks trendy. I am 44 and I don't think it looks too young, as the dress comes in two lengths and is therefore suitable for any age. My Mum gasped when she saw me wearing the dress and said that it looks beautiful. The red and blue flowers on the white background look really pretty. I love this dress so much I also purchased the dress in the pink mix T428480, at the same time, which is the same style but has lots of pinky red flowers on it. I was lucky to get both dresses when there was a deal of the day, 50% off dresses, a total bargain! I would definitely recommend this dress.

Thin material dress for young slim girls

The top is very see through my white bra is on show ! The dress is short and I'm 5'2. Skirt is lined but not the top which needs to be. Suitable for young women up to 30 who are slim and with great legs . I'm 58 and it's a defenit no, I thought it's a pretty style and cool cotton, lovely if young , I'm sad I'm not 30 but the dress is reminding me of days gone by in 1981 marks and spencer sold this design and I had a light blue version of this. I would have kept it had it not been see through and had sat just below my knee! Retuned dress

Ruined by elastic waist

I just hate the elastic waist on this dress, it wasn’t obvious in the photo and there was no mention of it in the description. It just ruined a beautiful dress, had it not been for the itchy elastic, it had been a keeper.

Pretty summer frock

This is a very pretty summer frock and true to its picture, well made and the colours (red & blue) vibrant set perfectly on the white background. I ordered Size 6 and is true to size and fits very well, sits on the knee (I am 5'3"). the skirt is lined adding to the appearance. The quality of this dress is good. The waist is elasticated & for me in the perfect position as sometimes the waistlines with M&S are too low and sit on the hip making the dresses frumpy & bunched.

Pretty dress

I really wanted this dress but struggle to know which size to order when there are no reviews. I ordered size 10 and 12 - I sometimes need a size 12 because a 10 can pull across the bust. I did need the 12 on this occasion. The background colour is definitely white not ivory which looks fresh. Unfortunately, this dress was not for me - it was very short and because the waist is elasticated the skirt stuck out a bit like a “rara” skirt. Might have suited me more 10 years ago. Still a pretty dress.

I wanted a nice dress for those hot days when in holiday. And this seems to fit the bill. It fits nice, and comes just above the knee. It’s very pretty & feminine. I’m looking forward to wearing it.
