and I'm ambivalent because of the price (£87).

Return or keep?

How does it look on?

Return. It's unlikely that a white summery dress will get much wear if you're in the UK.

ambivalence and £87 dresses don't go
If you don't love it, and the way it looks on you for that money, send it back

It looks like a beach dress. Where & when are you planning on wearing it?

Would be nice for hols but only worth it if you travel regularly.

To be honest, I don't think it's worth £87, but I don't like spending a lot on clothes.

If you love it, and it fits great keep it, if your not sure, its a lot to just leave it in your wardrobe...

If the quality is good then it might be worth it. I'm assuming you are in Australia which probably makes a difference.

I would probably never buy a white dress myself but if it suits you I can see that it would be quite versatile as you could accessorize it with different colours.

Where do you live, if it's hot and you love the dress keep it. It's not really my thing, a bit to virginal and innocent for me, but we all have different styles.

It looks like a pinny! I think if it were hot enough to wear something white-you'd want something sleeveless.

I actually really like it.

Would you get much wear out of it? It's a lot of money for a couple of days in the summer.
Mind you I'm a disaster area with white clothes, food and muck throw themselves at me.

I have a similar one (white, crochet, but from Country Road). They look great for summer with tan sandals. And Napisan is your friend - mine had red wine thrown all over it and came up pristine after a 24-hour soak.

I love Seed! When I lived in Aus I lived opposite it and I spent a fortune there, mainly on beautiful little baby clothes.
Returning to topic, for 87 quid I'd return it if you don't love it.

£87 is too much for ambivalence. Return.

I like it. I think it's quite classic and you should keep it if it suits your figure.

I think it is really pretty. I'd wear it in UK

Actually I really like the sleeves and the skirt part. I don't like the V-neck as I am flat chested. I'm also rectangle shape.
