Hmm, I quite like. Why "famous"? Is it an MN favourite? And I can't see the 25% off. Is there a code?

Surely those are three words that should never go together?!

I don't understand why that dress is so popular. I think it's horrible.

It's quite sweet with opaques and ankle boots, I think.

25% off, you say?

How do you get the 25% off ? I really like it. I'm size 8 hourglass and that shape would be perfect for me . I can never find dresses with a waist!! Will wear with biker boots and leather jacket !

C'mon, OP, what's this discount of which you speak?

It says 15% off on the page but doesn't say how to get it Sad ( stamps feet)

I can't even see 15%, definitely not 25%... would definitely buy at 25% off :-)

This morning there was a red bar next to it saying '25% off - online exclusive' but this has gone now. It is a really nice dress. I bought one for a MNer who couldn't get hold of it during the summer and the fabric felt very nice and looked like it would be very flattering. I'm sure it was navy but maybe now thay have made it in black.

I just called them . He says its a glitch . Someone is going to call me back to see if they will honour it !!

Any views on how it would look on an hourglass 5'9 in a 14? maybe a bit short?

Right , if you call them they will sort out the discount for you . I just got a call back and they have ordered it for me with store pick up .

I'm hourglass and it will suit me . Just wear leggings or thick tights .

Right, I might just have to get on the phone. I had this discount problem once before with M&S, when I bought a sofa - by the time I got to checkout it was £400 more expensive!

Katy the model is 5'9" if that helps you judge how it'll look on you (I am 5'8" 14 hourglass).

bishboschone · 24/10/2012 18:22

Yeah he said something like we will put it through for £35 and refund you the 25% . Ill check my card before I collect it and make sure it's done . I ordered the 8 as I'm normally 8 and I think marks is on the big side . I'm hoping it willl be perfect for hourglasses. I have found before with these dresses that the hem is too tight for comfortable walking . ( am large of thigh though ) .. Will report back Friday if anyone is interested Smile

Just to mention - when the dress was previously on the site the reviews said the dress was quite tight around the waist so sizing up was recommended. As this is a new batch this might not apply but I thought I would bring it up.

Thanks dexter . My waist is small so I should be ok .. It's my bum and boobs I need to worry about!! Wink... I figured I could always get them to order me a ten as there are loads in stock . ( hopefully wont sell out because its been on mumsnet!!! )

Gah - wish they'd do one that shape but in a silk/cotton mix.
