Good dress. Have a few points to make so please read.
Long review. Possibly.The dress was a little surprising on arrival. The stitching doesn't look amazing. I've seen better stitching on cheaper items however once on it's hard to see the stitching (it's the folded over parts on the front of the dress) the skirt part is quite a thin material. Perfect for office and summer because you won't get too hot. Th skirt however rises whenever you sit down and becomes a rather unattractive miniskirt. As I wore this for an interview I had to hold the skirt as I sat down to avoid it rising up. The top half of the dress is a nice thick material. Very comfortable to wear. The zip was a little stiff at first but probably because it hadn't been used. Was fine once opened and closed a few times.The sizing was a little strange. I am well and truly a size 16 but the size 16 seemed a little big. In-fact I had loads of room around my waist. The only true fitted part was the bust. The waist and skirt were a little big. Which makes me feel a little better about myself but was still a little odd. The only other thing to mention really was that the fabric the skirt is made of, feels a little on the cheaper side (compared the the fabric on the top half) but it also clings to every bump you have. So if you have a little bit of a belly or a larger bum. It will cling to every bump you have and show it off.Regardless of the above mentioned. I did enjoy wearing it. And will buy from the company again. I feel the price is a little high for what you get. But I'll probably buy from them again because it's not a bad dress. And it's hard to find this style of dress. That fits mostly well. In a larger size. I already have my eye on a few more of their items!

Love it!
I've been eyeing this lovely dress up for three weeks or so now; I wasn't sure it would fit well as the model has a much slimmer waist compared to her chest and/or hips than I do.I did, however, fall in love with it and realised I kind of had to give it a go!I'm really pleased with the results. It looks great, and the material is stretchy enough to accommodate my not-quite hourglass figure 😅I love how I look in this; it still manages to make me feel sexy without being inappropriate for general wear; in fact I think it's quite a sophisticated look, and aside from being work wear I'd actually consider wearing it to meals out with my other half, and perhaps even less full-on nights on the town!I do find that I occasionally have to pull it down when standing up - nothing drastic, but I get a little bit of a ride-up (literally half a centimetre, nothing unflattering!) - this produces a small (barely noticeable) crease which my OCD will not let me leave in place just at the bottom of the top (red) section.Even that, however, I can attribute to my figure rather than the dress, and the pros way outweigh the cons!The top part is tighter than I thought it would be around my arms; nothing at all to worry about, it's not uncomfortable, and I think in fact it's because it fits better than other garments I have with similar arms and not worse!All in all I absolutely love this dress; the only real downside is that during this lockdown I won't get to wear it out!

Great for the office
I love this dress. I usually buy my clothes from the high street but I don’t fancy queuing for an hour to get in the store in the freezing cold. I’ve bought dresses from Amazon before and they’ve mainly been fine. I’m very happy with this dress, it’s very comfortable and doesn’t restrict you. I’m a size 10 and 5’6. I’ll most likely buy this in other colours.

A lovely dress, good quality. I'll buy other dresses from this shop.
A lovely dress for either office or even an event. Very classy, fits and looks exactly how it is showed in the photo.I always check the quality of material where the zipper end gets sowed inside the dress around the bum area (I have had the embarrassing moment of it breaking previously), and this dress is made well. Have worn it to work and dinners and it looks cute.I am a UK size 8 for tops and 10 for bottoms, and I got the size M or UK 10.I love that I can roll it in my suitcase when I travel and I don't need to iron it. Wear it and go!

Very nice
Bought this for my wife for her office job. She's 5ft 3", 9.5 stone and size 10. She was a stone heavier and a size 12 when I bought it but now she's lost a stone the large fits her perfectly. Would recommend you buy 1 size larger so if your a 10 then get a 12. Also waist line is a little higher than the picture suggests but she really likes it. Said it's nice and warm in a cold office and also very comfortable plus got lots of compliments from work colleagues.

Disappointing fit!!!
The dress looked lovely when I took it out of the packaging and I liked the neck detail. However, when tried it on there was extra material at the side of the dress near the tummy. There is a gathering of material which I guess is a feature of the dress, but this was hanging and was not fitted against my body. It looked awful and spoiled the overall look of the dress. Very disappointed as the dress looks lovely. I am a size 10 and usually clothing fits me well but this just did not look good.

fake advertising
well first thing i noticed the line was way higher than in the picture and with other words nothing in common with whats advertising .. its lots of extra fabric on the belly side feels like its ideal fir pregnant women also doesn’t flattering as its too thin and shows all the non flattering spots of the body

Lovely but...
Great fit and looks just like the picture. Love the colours and design.A couple of issues. When you sit down the neck part is uncomfortably tight, seems to be a drawback of having it fit everywhere elseAlso, I've only worn it and washed it twice and already the seam at the back in the skirt has frayed, left me with a hole that had to be repaired. Overall lovely, but doesn't seem long wearing material/make so take care not to over wear it
