Brand new me dress!

Yes, I recommend this

This is out of my comfort zone and not my usual style but I love it. Can't wait to wear it. I prefer a fitted, pencil or bodycon dress above or on the knee. I feel comfortable, feminine and professional.

Pleasantly surprised

Yes, I recommend this

Got this dress at the sale price. Wasn’t sure what to expect but when I tried it on I was very pleasantly surprised. I like the long sleeves, the neck is a little high but with the top two buttons undone it’s fine. I got a size 14 regular length. It sits just below mid calf, the long I think, would have been to long for everyday wear on me. I am 5’5 in height. Size is fine, maybe a little loose on the top but as it’s long sleeved I won’t need to wear a cardigan. If I want to wear it in the cooler months, I shall put a camisole underneath. Material seems good. Not washed yet and I’m sure it will need a light iron but for £20 I can’t complain. I think this will be a very useful purchase.

New dress

Yes, I recommend this

Bought this with 20% discount. Had to return as button came right off. Maybe slightly too long compared to other dresses but still like it. Quite a fancy dress. Ordered 10 and 12 but kept the 10.

Could have been perfect

No, I don't recommend this

I am returning this as the top was very unattractive because of so much surplus material which bulged over the waist.

Beautiful dress

Yes, I recommend this

I bought the longer length in a size 14. I am 5ft 6" so the longer length is just right on me. The fit is perfect, the material is good quality and comfortable and the price is very reasonable especially with a 20% discount. Love this dress and hope to purchase a few more in this style.

Spots Rule

Yes, I recommend this

This dress was purchased on promo so very good value. For me at 5' it was way too long so out came scissors, needle and cotton. Such a pity a short version not produced as material wasted on my dress. Thin material so need a slip under but style good. Would have preferred more of a V neck as if top run of buttons are left undone the material still remains in place! The tiny buttons are easy to use as loop is elastisized, just hope does not come unstitched. Not washed so cannot comment on this aspect of garment. I just love navy and spots so very pleased once alterations were complete.

Not a goof fit

No, I don't recommend this

The top half of this dress is quite loose and the bottom is much more narrow than it looks in the images, I tried a 12 (my normal size) and a 14, and found both were too tight on the bottom, which is a shame as it's a beautiful dress and great price

Feel good dress

Yes, I recommend this

A pretty feminine dress for any occasion. Dress it up and dress it down. It ticks all the boxes and suits all moods. Another wardrobe must - it will see you through until autumn and next winter too.

Versatile midi dress

Yes, I recommend this

This dress is a nice style, fits generally well apart from being a little short in the bodice. I am 5’9” tall and the waist of the dress is a little high but the navy and white polka dot fabric disguises the fact.

Not for tall ladies.

No, I don't recommend this

This is a nice dress but , at 5’ 11” , does not have the right proportions for me . The waist line was positioned about 3” too high for me. So, I removed the elastic and the casing and made it into a straight dress. I will also shorten the sleeves to a three quarter length. The reduced dress price made the alterations viable - I would not have bothered keeping it otherwise. I have since ordered other long length dresses and have returned all of them due to the waist line position. It would be great if all the proportions of long length dresses were lengthened - not just the skirt length.

Disappointed customer.

Yes, I recommend this

Oh dear yet another dress to be returned! Please please M & S consider us shorter ladies 5ft 2ins. I loved the dress until I tried it on. It came down to my ankles so unsuitable. I did purchase a waisted midi dress before Xmas which wasn't quite as long so I kept it & wore it with boots. I would appreciate this style of dress to be available in a "short" as well as regular & long lengths. Surely I'm not the only customer to have this complaint.Can you help!!!

Lovely dress brings back memories

Yes, I recommend this

This is a really lovely and useful dress, very comfortable to wear. I love it even more as it brings back memories of a dress I wore on honeymoon many years ago. This is a dress to put on and forget. I am so happy with it and am sure it will be worn a lot.

A bit too 'Little house on the prairie' for me

No, I don't recommend this

Really liked the look of this dress on the website but when it arrived, it was a little frumpy for me and the neckline looked old fashioned. May be better for the more flat chested as I didn't feel it suited my curves.

Perfect dress now I've adapted

Yes, I recommend this

I've been looking for this colour print and length dress for a while but wanted the looser fit. As I only have a short body the top half looked too baggy so I cut the elastic out in the waist and now have my perfect dress!
