Gorgeous dress

Yes, I recommend this

Absolutely gorgeous! Relaxed but so stylish, love it. I am 5'5" and comes to my knees. The only thing is that you can't wash it, it's dry clean only. That always puts me off, but I'm so glad I didn't see that before I ordered it, as I wouldn't have it now. It's worth the hassle, no doubt!!!

bit overpriced for what it was

No, I don't recommend this

I liked the velvet t-shirt part but could not see the point of the bottom being in a different material which made the dress a seem cheap looking. Wasn't for me unfortunately. Felt it was expensive for what it was

Brilliant smart casual Xmas dress

Yes, I recommend this

Initially looked for a size 12 (my usual size), but as this was sold out I went for a 10. Pleased I did as it fits perfectly. A little longer than I would have preferred. However looks great with thick black tights, and chunky brogues. I love it! Well worth the money.

Lovely dress

Yes, I recommend this

I really liked this dress but it was huge on top, it was too loose and baggy so I had to return it. Ordered a smaller size which fitted better but the pockets didn’t sit smoothly so I gave up and returned that one as well. Such a shame because it could have been lovely.

A lovely dress for Christmas and special occasion.

Yes, I recommend this

Wanted a black dress for Christmas and this really fitted the bill. It is a simple yet stylish design and feels really comfortable. I'm 5'6 and it just covers my knee was ideal for me.

Velvet Dress

Yes, I recommend this

I initially ordered a size 14 as this is the size I usually need in dresses as I have broad shoulders. It was a nice style and I liked the quality but it was very big and unflattering. I wasn't sure that even one size down would be enough so ordered a 12 and a 10 and was very happy with the fit of the 10. So I would recommend this dress but try a smaller size than your usual fit.

Black Dress

Yes, I recommend this

I took advantage and bought this dress on the Sparks 20% off yesterday. It feels lovely, even after only taking it out of the shopping bag today, there are no creases, it’s below the knee and just right. I would say it’s a bit big, but decided not to exchange it as the next size down would be too fitted. Can’t wait to wear it out to dinner over the festive season! Not been washed yet!

Nice Black Velvet SHIFT dress

Yes, I recommend this

Its velvet, it goes over your head so no fastenings - which if I'm critical the neck line is wide - so could be difficult for bra straps on some people (why they choose the description T-shirt) its a misnomer Its a shift dress - Good knee length, two nice side pockets, which are sewn up so you can choose to unpick or keep closed.

New Year Party Dress

Yes, I recommend this

The velvet is good quality and it hangs well on me. There are not many clothes on sale in M&S that grab my attention on the rail any more but this dress did. I love it.

Oh dear

No, I don't recommend this

Bought this online, as from the pictures it looked like a simple, classy dress (with pockets!). On me the fit was terrible, far too wide and big across the neck and top and then the pockets stuck out at a strange angle. This will only fit someone who is straight up and down, not one for curves. For the price the quality of the material is poor, even with 20% off this is going straight back. M&S really need to look at shops like Seasalt, White stuff, Joules etc on how to do stylish dresses.

Poor quality. NOT MIDI

No, I don't recommend this

This dress was advertised as a midi dress and still comes under that category. It’s is NOT a midi dress. Very poor quality and over priced. It will be returned.
