Easy wear dress
Yes, I recommend this
Amazing fit considering there is no zip. Easy to slip on and off therefore. Wearable any time of day.

Lovely colour
Yes, I recommend this
I have returned previous dresses in a similar style Because the arm holes were too big, but this one is better the arm holes are still bigger than necessary but much more wearable I have not washed this dress yet, but it was very creased when I picked it up so will need pressing before I can wear it.

dress was shorter and rather badly fitting, than several others I have bought in this linen rich tunic range, and regrettably I had to return it

Relaxed summer staple with a modern twist
Yes, I recommend this
Easy to wear, stylish dress. Sits on the knee - a perfect length for me at 5’ 4”. Neckline gives a modern twist. Flattering colour and the fabric feels good quality but haven’t worn or washed it yet. I ordered sizes 8 and 10 and preferred the more relaxed fit of the 10 so would recommend sizing up if between sizes. Looking forward to wearing it.

Cool and comfortable
Yes, I recommend this
Nice classic. Simple style which is roomy but not baggy. Good in heat wave. I like the neckline,’V’ with a slight twist.

Nice dress for summer
Yes, I recommend this
This dress could be dressed up or down. Looks lovely and cool for the hot weather.

Ok, but......
No, I don't recommend this
Quality not as good as previous linen dresses.Creases badly. HUGE armholes. Was delivered to me looking like a rag, even though it was on a hanger. Kept it as I liked the colour, but will need steam ironing before every wearing. Have worn it once, not washed it yet so cannot comment on wash ability.

Easy summer shift dress
Yes, I recommend this
Nice, soft, comfortable fabric. Lovely shade of blue. Love the neck line. Not necessarily a dress for smart occasions but great to pop on on hot or warm days, for smart/casual occasions. Could dress it up or down. Haven't washed it yet but should be OK on a cool wash.

Arm-holes too big
No, I don't recommend this
Would have kept this dress if the arm-holes had been a lot smaller. I could see at least three inches of bra under my arm. Not a pretty sight. However, this is not uncommon in sleeve-less dresses by most manufacturers. I am not alone in this view.

Interestingly different neckline
Yes, I recommend this
I love this dress. The colour, the material, the fit. Most of all I like the way the neckline has been made. It makes an already lovely dress just that bit different. Perfect.

Linen dress
Yes, I recommend this
A tiny bit snug around the bust, surprisingly as a M&S 12 fits me really well normally. Lovely fabric, colour and style

Great little throw on
Yes, I recommend this
Really like the simplicity of this dress. Can be dressed up with nice accessories. It's a flattering, simple cut & I really like the fact that the arm holes are not tight (a constant bugbear of mine) so no chaffing! Wish there were more colours. Only thing I would have liked was to be 100% linen, shame it's 45% viscose.

returned it
No, I don't recommend this
Didnt really like the material - it was bit itchy. Also didnt like the neck line a bit too stiff and high for the summer. I have several of these linen dresses and didnt find this one as comfortable or flattering as the others.

My easy to wear dress
Yes, I recommend this
Very pleased with this dress. Fits perfect around armholes and feels amazing. Cool to wear.

Great summer dress
Yes, I recommend this
Good simple dress. Easy to wear and looks great. Yes the pleat at the top neck line, on the front is a little off putting, but that is a small issue. I like the simplicity and good looks.

Odd neckline!
No, I don't recommend this
Positive points were the lovely colour and the fact that it was linen, although could have contained more linen. The main reason for returning it was the very strange nexline. On the photographs it seemed to,have a rather nice little pleat or fold. In reality it looked as if someone had just put in a few rough stitches to stop the neck gaping. Really strange. I couldn't see it in my local store so not sure if I was sent a faulty one or not!!
