Great party dress

Really flattering, smart and stylish. I will be wearing this out over Christmas. I think the black velvet will look good with some seasonally sparkly jewellery. So far, have had lots of positive comments.

Great dress

This is a lovely velvet dress. The fit is great, lovely flare at the bottom. Quite short, which I like - I’m 5ft 4. I’ve worn sparkly tights or thick black tights with it. Add a sparkly brooch or bag and it really pops. Absolute bargain. Will wear it a lot over the festive period.

Fab-U-Lous 🤩

Yes, I recommend this

Wow love this Dress. Great Style, Fit, Length, Material and Best of All the Price. No wonder it is selling out fast. Perfect for the Festive Season. I vary between sizes14/16 and ordered a 16 which fits perfect as it skims rather than clings to the body which I prefer

Beautiful dress for winter nights out!

Yes, I recommend this

I purchased this on a whim, not sure if I would like it, but I actually loved it! It's pretty short, but it looks absolutely stunning paired with sheer black tights and heels. I had so many compliments from strangers when I wore it a few nights ago. It's really nice to have a long-sleeved dress for winter outings, especially if you prefer not to use fake tan. I should have gone for a smaller size, but it still looks fantastic. Kudos to M&S! You've created a modern, elegant dress that’s perfect!

Really nice for parties.

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely thin velvet dress. Perfect length for me (am 5' 2") as sits just above knees. Sleeves a tad long but can manage that ok. Looks fabulous with a few bits of jewellery, perfect for parties, meals out etc.

My Christmas Day outfit sorted! Just a brilliant quality dress, exceptional for the price. Love the fabric and shape of sleeves, so easy to wear and dress up. Just need to add some sparkly tights and I’m done! Well done M&S!

This little black velvet dress is true to size. I am 5’2. The petite fits perfectly on my arms and in the length . It is a very versatile dress easy to dress up for a special occasion or a relaxed day dress with tights and boots.
