Lovely beach dress

This dress will be fab for holidays as its very thin material flowy, meaning you can see your underwear through the dress. Its a bit pricey for the material, will need an underskirt if I wish to wear it out with a beach holiday

Beautiful beach dress

Yes, I recommend this

This is really pretty, I love the lacy straps and sweetheart neckline. It’s definitely a beach dress as it’s slightly sheer. It’s maxi length (I’m 5’8) and the straps are perfect, not too long on me and don’t slip down. I don’t really need this but couldn’t resist as it is so pretty.

Poor fitting

No, I don't recommend this

Looks lovely on the website and the material is quiet nice. Light for beach/holiday wear although can visibly see undergarments. The bust area is loose and ill fitting despite my DD size bust.

Lovely dress but very poor quality control

This is a lovely summer dress, however there is clearly poor quality control on the item. I purchased a size 6 and the zip became completely jammed halfway down. I thankfully managed to return due to a faulty item, however had the exact same issue with another size 6 I looked at in store. Other sizes also seemed to have the same issue. Such a shame as it is not a cheap dress and would have been perfect for holiday.

Not what I was hoping for

No, I don't recommend this

This dress looked lovely online - but when it arrived the material was not high quality and there was a hole in side seam/hem .. I returned it but on the positive size the fit was good and true to size

Pleased with my purchase

Yes, I recommend this

Length a little too long and some gaping under arms which can be resolved with a few stitches to take in the seam, other than that pleased with the overall fit

A pretty casual dress

Yes, I recommend this

The material is softer, more crepey and off white than the picture shows. The bodice section is small, so size up for a better fit. It’s cute.

Disappointed

I had high hopes for this dress but it didn’t fit it came up tight around the middle , to me it looked like a dirty white I ordered a size 16 maybe it would look better on a smaller person.

Unimpressed.

No, I don't recommend this

Not impressed by this dress. Be warned - the description says that it is lined, but in fact only the bodice is lined. The skirt is very transparent. This is what makes it a beach dress.

Pretty dress

Very pretty off white dress, not necessarily a beach dress and that’s not where I shall where it. Quite fitted on the top. Lovely dress and well worth the price.
