It's from Jigaw Here Love the shape and that it's a cotton/silk mix but cotton would be fine. Don't care about the colour particularly. Print would be fine too. But it has to be cotton, silk or a mixture.

Any ideas, oh wise ones?

Thanks all. The Oasis one is pretty but polyester, which I absolutely don't want.

I haven't tried it on, but that sort of shape sometimes suits me, if it's a good fit and the waist is in the right place.

This Warehouse one is pretty, and cotton, but I doubt the colour will work on me.

Possibly a bit too simple but Uniqlo 1 and Uniqlo 2. I have the second one, love it and seriously considering investing in the other one too.

The Ted Bakers are all polyester. Really don't like the third TB. Don't like the Oasis one, sorry. And all too short. :( :( :(

Phase 8 is lovely but I love the Jigsaw one. Can you hang on a bit to see if they reduce it in the sales? There's a red Hobbs one in a similar shape but I Think it's poly.

Sadly, I think it will be out of my price range even if it goes down again. I think I'll try the P8 one on.

I like the print on this one

KV - well if wine is involved, then you are well and truly forgiven! Grin

Tethers - cute but too casual and too much 'flesh' on show.

Do you want a higher neck?

That rules this one out too...

Love the FC print but deffo want more covered up than that. Don't like the Reiss and if I could afford that one, I'd by the Jigsaw one as there's not much difference in price. Think I might give up on dresses and get a skirt!

The Jigsaw one comes as a skirt too, but it's not exciting me like the dress is.

You 'know' me too well. I love it even more than the original Jigsaw one.

Cos one not for me. That colour plus the clingy top half would be a disaster.
