Second colour way in this dress style

Yes, I recommend this

Bought the navy spot version of this dress and got so many compliments, I thought I would get the coral colour too. I have only tried it on so far & if I were to be hyper-critical it would be that it's slightly tighter round the bust than my original dress . But it was a great price and I look forward to its first outing!

A lovely splash of colour!

Yes, I recommend this

Spotted this linen dress on line at a great discounted price. I was also very pleased to see that it came in a long length, which is perfect as it falls nicely below the knee. And also has good length sleeves!! It is extremely comfortable and easy to wear. I have worn it once and been complemented on what a great little dress and am sure it will become a favourite!!

Linen mix dress

Yes, I recommend this

Great price with 30% off, very comfortable, true to size, good material and fits nicely. I'm 5ft 7" and the regular sits slightly above the knee, the long was just below the knee making it look too frumpy. I would've got other colours but they were out of stock. Very pleased with this purchase.

Ok, nothing special

Yes, I recommend this

I had already bought this dress in navy blue and was very pleased with it, so thought I would get a bright coloured version. Somehow, the cut is not quite the same nor is the fabric and it doesn’t look as nice. However I’ve decided to keep it as a general-purpose summer dress.

comfortable smart casual styled dress

Yes, I recommend this

Nice smart comfortably styled dress which can be dressed up or down, as the mood suits. Have also bought the ivory/navy spotted one as well which has a lovely fresh look & feel to it. Haven't had the occasion to wear either yet so cannot comment on how they wash but hopefully they will become standard favourites over the next few summer seasons.

Perfect Summer dress

Yes, I recommend this

I am absolutely delighted with this dress. It fits beautifully and the material is of a good quality. I'm very tempted to buy another one in a different colour, particularly as there's 20% off. Couldn't be more pleases.

Just the job

Yes, I recommend this

I bought this dress in the light blue denim colourway earlier in the year and was delighted with it, so I bought this colour too. This dress is gorgeous, just the right length on me (I am 5' 4"), nice sleeve, a V neck which suits me as I am quite busty, and plain colour which you can jazz up with accessories. And it has pockets too. It is a perfect garment for the more mature lady who has no definable waist! Very smart. Well done, M & S, for making a dress that isn't meant for someone 6' tall, like some of your winter range.

Perfect length

Yes, I recommend this

Purchased during the hot weather but sadly it’s a lot cooler now so haven’t worn yet. At long last I’ve been given the option of a longer length. I’m getting on in years and previously find the knee length dresses to be to short. I’m just under 5’3”. I hope this trend continues when the winter clothes come out. I think the material is a little fine I might have to wear a slip under

Smart but comfortable

Yes, I recommend this

I like the longer length sleeves for not so hot days. The fit was perfect and it’s well made. Fabric didn’t crease much at all. A great summer dress for either work or holiday sightseeing etc when I can actually do that! The coral is a pretty bright pinky orange - I do like to have a bright colour in the summer!

Midi linen dress

Yes, I recommend this

Bought 2 linen dresses, one coral and one spotted. Love them both but they are NOT midi! They came just below my knee showing tops of knee highs! They have huge hems and so I unpicked them and let them down. Only problem with that was the actual hem was a separate piece of material and so there was a join across . However Havng press’s them well they look ok. M&S midi dresses are usually longer than these. Very comfortable and cool.

Lovely summer dress

Yes, I recommend this

I really like this dress perfect for summer. Beautiful bright colour, true to website colour. Lovely material, not too thick as some linen tends to be. The pockets are an added bonus. The length is perfect. I am 5’ 5’’ and dress sits just on the knee. I would say sizing is spot on. I cannot fault the purchase at all. Not washed yet so cannot comment on that.
