A Lovely Dress
It is a lovely dress - I opted for Mustard and Blues abstract design. Never owned anything with mustard in it but it went so well with the blues I was tempted and am so glad as they go so well together and plenty of fabric to show the colours and pattern off. I am a 22 but medium frame so expected to do some altering when I ordered 3x - usually shoulders are too wide and skirts too long to fit my large bust but this fitted my shoulders perfectly so no alterations were needed and I was amazed that the skirt just went to the floor so with even the smallest heel it just brushed my feet. The fabric is lovely, light yet nice quality with a soft feel ( even after washing), no see-through even in very bright direct sunlight and so well constructed it took a bit for me to find the pockets as they were set in perfectly as any good dressmaker would do - I am a hobbyist dressmaker so understand the basics and know what to look for in construction and this dress passes all the checks. I could not make the dress for the money I paid unless I went for a cheaper fabric - I paid £22.99 as there was a discount the day I bought it. I actually wore it for a wedding (health problems stopped me from making my own, cut out but not sewn, sadly) with nude kitten heel pumps - 2in heels, so no tripping over the hem and a lovely yellow fancy hat and it was perfect with people asking where I got the dress, perfect as a guest for a summer non-formal wedding.Price has gone back up but I still think if quality and care of construction is there on other patterns the dresses are still worth it and I will buy at least one more.

Dress of my dreams
I was very pleased with this dress. I ordered two, and am ordering two more. What's not to like? Comfortable and flattering. Just throw it over your head and you're done. I'm 5ft 5in and it is a good long length for me (mid-thigh) and I love them. The material is thin, but not transparent, and is cool to wear. The pockets are a great bonus. Word of warning though. Not all the dresses are made of the same material. The two patterned ones I bought were a good weight of brushed cotton. The plain army green one was a cotton/rayon mix, and the plain blue one is a sort of cheesecloth cotton, but with a lining to help avoid the see-through. So be aware.

Excellent value
This is a lovely dress which is pretty, cool and comfortable. I'm 5'5" and vary between a 14/16 so ordered a medium. Although quite generous I think if you're more of a definite 16 then it might be a little snug across the bust. Sleeves are also a little shorter than I expected but still look fine. The label says 100% cotton but I'm not 100% certain...it could be a poly/cotton mix but fabric feels nice and is a decent weight. The length was just above the ankle. All in all I'm very pleased and have ordered another one!

Yes it’s worth it!
I deliberated for a long time before buying this dress, I thought it was a bit on the pricey side and the negative reviews gave me pause. But finally I took a chance and I’m glad I did. It’s a really lovely dress, flattering and comfortable. Yes the fabric is light but it has a built in slip so no worries about modesty. A perfect summer dress and I think I’ll be buying another.

isn't the beautiful colour in the advert photos
Too large on me, could get an extra half-me in it, and too long. As the material's cotton it's quite heavy and it hangs like a sack. It's darker than expected and isn't the beautiful colour in the advert photos.Plus points:1. It has pockets (two). I often sew in a pocket or two, so I'm saved a job.2. Reasonable price at £39.99.3. Decent sewing quality.4. Fabric strength makes it feel robust.I can sew in some darts and take up the hem to make it fit. Whilst the colour is OK, I can't change the disappointing colour to the shade in the advert photos which were what sold this particular dress to me.P.S. 3rd June 2023: I did sew in darts and took up the hem. I recommend everyone to sew in a couple of darts if you want to quickly & easily make this dress look more tailored over/around your curves. When I took up the hem I took up enough to make myself a co-ordinated wrap - maybe consider doing the same if you need to shorten it.

Super fit
Fantastic dress, very flattering fit and washes well. I have it in four different colours as it's fabulous for dressing up for an evening or wearing with a little denim jacket for a day out. Love love love worth every penny.

Quality what I expected, but fabric differs from the description
This is my second dress from this company. I enjoyed how my first could cover many flaws (although I have to wear it with a sweater or jacket because it hits my 5’1” overweight torso in an odd, unflattering way). The illustration looks like it’s a gold/black & gray/white, but what I expected to be tones of black are actually light and dark blue, with no white at all. It’s fine but will make it a little trickier for me to coordinate. I will keep it because it’s still nice.

Lovely but too tight in the arms.
Loved the dress but at 72 my arms have lost their firmness and need more room in a sleeve.Sadly I had to return it.

Looks great-updated
Update. I decided to update my review after not only wearing but washing and drying. I now have five of these dresses in different fabrics. I washed in cold water and totally forgot to use a color catcher. I washed along with other things that would have been ruined if these had bled. Thankfully they did not. They washed up very well. I did not put in dryer. I dried flat or close. I have a large bush outside and I laid them on it and they dried nicely. Some have crinkled like wrinkles and others are virtually wrinkle free. I may or may not iron. Bottom line these are fantastic. And I honestly don’t post a lot of reviews. I did NOT receive anything for this review so you can believe it.They didn’t shrink either. Yay!First time I wore this I got compliments. I had to go to physical therapy and two people there complimented it. Then went to another place and the young lady loved it.So comfortable. I got a 2x as I’m a big lady but I also like baggy. If you are busty you will need to go larger. I think it runs small in the bust. But I’m not overly busty to be able to address that. I have purchased several of these in different fabrics.

Great dress!
Very comfortable and seems to be good quality. My only complaint is the areas that appear white in the image are more green but is still very pretty.

Color not as shown
I really like these dresses, they're very pretty, but this particular dress look like yellow with a little bit of black. It turns out it's blue with a little bit of yellow. Not a deal breaker, I'm keeping it and I love it, but worth noting that the color is not the way it looks in the photo.
