Lovely quality

Yes, I recommend this

I have bought this dress in both colours, it is lovely, the material feels heavy and good quality, the price is excellent. It can be dressed up with a jacket or casually on its own. Very pleased.

This was a gift for my daughter. She looked lovely and it fitted so well. She is 6' tall and the dimensions were spot on.

Summer dress

Lovely dress for summer. I’m 5’6 and is mid calf on me. Sizing as others have said is a bit random. I followed reviews and ordered next size up, which is great. Can’t wait to wear it.

Fabulous classy summer dress

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely long comfortable dress with pockets. Had to go up a size as bodice little tight even with ruching. Larger size improved strap position for hiding bra straps.

Nice dress, poorly sewn!

No, I don't recommend this

The dress is lovely, unfortunately the quality is not as it arrived without top-stitching on one side of the front bodice and is currently unwearable. I don’t have time to return and wait for a replacement! Luckily for me, I own a sewing machine and can stitch it but not what I expect when purchasing a new dress!!

Pretty dress

Yes, I recommend this

It's very pretty and long enough. However, I did have to size up, and I think the arm holes are on the smaller side.

Great summer dress

Yes, I recommend this

A fabulous dress, great weight material so the skirt hangs beautifully. It has pockets - all loose dresses and skirts should have pockets and some of the M&S dresses don't - even in the same price bracket. The colours are soft and pretty and I have been complemented every time I have worn it.

Great shape in the bodice.

Yes, I recommend this

Couldn’t resist trying this dress. Covers bra straps ( big plus for me). I’m 12/14 and the 14 fits beautifully. Haven’t worn it yet but love it!

Beautiful summer dress

Love the material and the detail at the front. I'm a petite girl with a short torso so I had to get the straps adjusted since the neckline was too low.

Lovely linen Dress

Originally posted on marksandspencer.ie

The dress is very flattering, it has a full skirt. I have not worn it yet. The material is linen so will be lovely and cool for holidays. I’m 5ft 2, so the dress comes down to the floor I could not get petit at the time. I pulled the neck line up and made an additional seam at the neckline instead of taking up the hem. It worked perfectly I gained an inch off the length. Happy out!

Nice dress

Originally posted on marksandspencer.ie

Lovely colours in the striped combination, nostalgic and vintage feel. Elasticated back so moulds to your shape, good fit. I am size 8 and 5ft 3in so nearly down to my ankles but I took up the hem. The straps dont fall down and are thick enough to conceal bra straps. Not see though and nice cook linen mix

Pretty but over sized

Nice fabric and faded colours but as a petite size12 I found that the skirt was too bulky and full. Sadly having to return.
