Perfect summer dress

Yes, I recommend this

Perfect summer dress, had to size up to accommodate bust but excellent fit and lovely quality. Would recommend for a warm summer day /holiday can be worn in day or for evening out, it is on long side but I’m finding length of most marks cloths long and having to by short length cloths

My new favourite dress

Yes, I recommend this

The fit is great. The side zip helps to accentuate what little shape I have. I’m a size 16 with a 38B bust so small boobs on a larger frame that get lost wearing a pull on dress. Very pleased that the dress gives me some shape :) the fabric is great to with a lovely ull skirt. Nice an cool in hot weather.

Lovely & cool

Yes, I recommend this

Needed something long & floaty during the recent heatwave. This was just the thing. Sized up slightly to 12 so that the dress had a bit of room for the 'floatiness.'

Blue as a summer sky, light and easy to wear. Of course it’s linen so does crease a bit but it looks lovely on and so easy to wear.

Good value

I bought the dress in pale blue as I had already purchased it in black and liked it. I am 5’4” and take size 14. I had to buy the regular size on both occasions but they were far too long. I shortened each by 3 inches, taking them up to my ankles. Although the same style, the blue seemed to have more fabric around the bottom of the dress - it was ok but, I must say, I preferred the black. I thought the price was very reasonable and so good value for money.

Summer dress

Lovely blue summer dress that moves and falls really well. I'm not a dress person, but this one is comfy and versatile so when the weather is finally warm enough I can see myself wearing it often.
