Great dress

I really like this dress - it's stylish and comfortable and the Tall version is a great length. I marked down because the fabric is quite heavy and it weighs down the stretch in the dress.

Lovely and flowy

Gorgeous dress. Hangs and flows really nicely, I love that you can gather it in as much or as little as you like, which makes it very flattering. It’s true to size and I’m 5’ 7” and it comes down to my ankle, which is perfect.

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Great quality linen mix material. Long length to ankle. Looks very nice on. Quite heavy do not sure it would be that cool if it was really hot out.

Really lovely dress.

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Super dress. Slightly creased when collected the order but once on a hanger creases disappeared. I’m generally a 12 but downsized to a 10 which was perfect. I’m 5.4 and regular was pretty much maximum length, couldn’t have been longer or would have dragged on the floor. Very happy with purchase.

Lovely dress but very inconsistent sizing! I needed a smaller size, which is nice but meant 2 trips! Also arrived very scrunched up and creased , not good!

Fits all shapes

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

At last a dress that fits a 5ft 5in curvy hipped figure! I love dresses but they don’t always love my figure. I’ma size 16 with a small bust and slightly larger around the middle and hips (3 children later!) This dress hides a multitude of sins and will be great for an evening out or when on holiday.

This dress is so gorgeous !

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

This dress is so comfortable to wear and great to cover a bit of a tummy. You can dress it up with sandals and an evening wrap or trainers and a denim jacket. Also for us girls that need a petite at 5’2 the length is perfect.

Looks and feels great to wear! Very happy with this purchase. If between sizes would recommend sizing down. I’m 5’4 and it’s down to my shoes but in a cool way :-)

Beautiful easy wear dress

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

I struggle to find maxi dresses long enough being tall but this one is perfect. I bought a 14 long, it hits my ankles ( I’m 5ft 10 ) lovely colour, the fabric hangs well and isn’t flimsy but not too heavy either. Nice detailing. I bought both colours as I love it so much.

Gorgeous but oversized

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

Absolutely love the sage green colour, linen mix material and style of this dress, perfect for sightseeing, light and cool however it’s very oversized and my usual 14 regular length a little too long for flatter sandals and too much material in the top so I returned for a smaller size 12 and hoped to get a petite version too for a shorter length but it was not to be, all petites sold out! That tells me M&S that your sizing is slightly off on this one. I still loved it enough though to order the smaller 12 regular size which is perfect now on the top but I’m having to have it taken up slightly!

Summer dress

I loved the look of this dress and bought it online. When it arrived it was badly creased and it was quite heavy as a summer dress hence returned it the same day.
