A great dress at a great price

Yes, I recommend this

A very versatile dress. I’m usually a 12-14 but the 12 fitted fine.

Pretty dress

Yes, I recommend this

This is a lovely shade and despite being a plus size the gathered waist didnt make me look larger. Could do with skirt being lined but would look great over thick tights and chelsea boots.

Cheap material

No, I don't recommend this

ordered online and when I opened it the dress was so creased. I let it hang in a warm room for hours but no difference. Felt like cheap material which would have ended up like a rag when washed.

My new favourite dress

Yes, I recommend this

I love everything about this dress, the fit, the colour, the length, everything! There is so much room in the bust area and as someone witha large bust this was brilliant. The colour is just perfect, a gorgeous plum/maroon colour. I'd now like a black one please!!

Third time lucky on sizing, but worth the wait

Yes, I recommend this

I liked this dress on the website - right shape, right length and loved the colour for the season. I was thinking of wearing it with tights and ankle boots. I ordered a 12 and a 10, as I am a 12. Both were large and swamped my shoulders, and the gathering over the bust made me look huge. I went online again and ordered an 8, and I have to say it is a perfect fit. Bust and waist look good and it is still a good length on me (knee length). I am 5'4". I wore it yesterday with thick tights and suede ankle boots and had a lot of compliments. I felt comfortable - not too warm, or too cool. I wore a camisole vest underneath which M&S are selling in the exact same colour. Very good price for this dress. Yes it was slightly creased, but an iron sorted that out, and worn with a waist slip and tights, it seemed to address any issues there. I am no spring chicken, but felt confident, modern and comfortable in this. I haven't bought a dress from M&S for AGES. More like this please!!

Pretty dress

No, I don't recommend this

I bought the plum colour in size 8. Lovely dress and fitted very well. However, quality of the material was poor and you would need a slip underneath. Arrived very creased and in need of a good iron, so not easy to wear. Decided to return, which was a shame.

Good style, but ....

No, I don't recommend this

The dress was a non starter really before I tried it on. Arrived very creased and would therefore appear to be not an easy to wear material. Style was nice but did not suit me at all.

Great dress for work!

Yes, I recommend this

Such a great dress for the price - just wish that it was lined (fine with a slip though!) Looks exactly as pictured. 5'9 and got this in a 12 as 10 wasn't available. Little baggy but looks fine with a skinny black belt and is nice and comfy. Bit gutted that the sleeves are so short but overall a great dress that I receive many compliments when wearing.

Just didn't suit me

No, I don't recommend this

Oh dear I don't know why I didn't take notice of some of the bad reviews. This dress looked awful on me, huge sleeves and just looked like a sack not me at all. Maybe if you're size 8 and 5ft 9 then it could look good. Just wasn't my style. On a positive note the material was quite nice needed a good iron which I didn't bother doing.

Poor sizing

Yes, I recommend this

Too big in the bodice and sleeves - the dress swamped me. Other than this dress looked nice on the hanger and is a pretty design. Returned to store. Have ticked would recommend but that is only with a caution and if they can try on in store.

Easy smart, great colour

Yes, I recommend this

I brought this for work but in fairness would wear anytime. Can be dressed up or down. Easy to wear, attractive and a little flirty with the swish on the hem. Love it. Down side creased a little on the skirt

Lovely dress

Yes, I recommend this

Normally a size 12 , but this dress came up big and baggy. Returned and ordered a size 10 , it fitted very well. Nice blue colour, dress sits on the knee. I like the long sleeves on this dress.

Such a pretty dress

Yes, I recommend this

Looking at this dress online does not do it justice. I tried the burgundy in store and simply had to buy. Only downside is that it could have been lined. So will have to wear a slip underneath as it pretty sheer below waist. Apart from that nice drape, great retro style....can be dressed up or down depending on occasion.

Love this new dress!

Yes, I recommend this

Bought this dress to wear to a wedding, but can easily wear it to work with tights too. It’s pretty and floaty and very flattering on waist and hips. I am 5”4 and found the regular a perfect fit, it sits perfectly on my wrists and I didn’t notice it being high on my waist. I got the regular and it sits just above my knee, that’s what I’d want though to wear it to work. So happy that I bought it in both colours, just came on now to see if there were any more colours online!

Ruffle Hem Skater Dress

Yes, I recommend this

I ordered this dress in plum and blue. I was soooo desperate for it to look great on me. It would have if the sleeves were 4 inches shorter - I don't have short arms and the waist was about 6 inches lower. I'm 5' 4" and the regular length was on my knee. The fit across the shoulders and bust is bang on. I'm a 14 and I ordered a 14. The cut skims your hips and is flattering. I was disappointed. I had read the review on the black and white patterned dress which also had sleeves that were too long and a waist that was too high but i lived in hope that the cut of the self coloured dress was different. Not to be. Both dresses returned. The dress is lovely maybe it's just me and the other reviewer.......

Love the skater style

No, I don't recommend this

Liked the look of this dress. Ordered in the plum colour in short as I'm 5ft 4. Lovely colour and style but dress arrived like it had been in the bottom of a bag for a week, very creased and quite thin material. Also it was a bit short on me should have gone for the regular. Decided to return as didn't like it enough to keep.
