Will I like this?? The Hush advert keeps popping up on my screen with the beautiful lady wearing it and tempting me.... I bought their ruched skirt and never wore it, Im size 12/14, longish legs, shortish torso. 5'3''. Any advice welcome....x

I'm just about to send it back. It's lovely, and on the top it looks great. The skirt, not so much. I'm 5'7, 12 on the bottom, 14 on top. I couldn't wear it without Spanx, and I'm not prepared to do that in the summer. I think you need a pert bum (mine isn't!) and a flattish lower abdomen - or at least not a c/s overhang. It really accentuated mine.

It made me feel like a butterball. Don't think it works on shorter people.

I'm 5'2", size 10 hourglass and wearing mine today. I love it, the V neck is perfect and I think the skirt is great if you are short.

I think it must depend on how you are shaped/proportioned. I love my round neck/long sleeved Tara - and proportionately I am broad of shoulder and biggish norks (although 5'4" size 10. Am fairly short from shoulder to bust through (straps on strappy tops often too long).

I expected to love the summery V-neck. Nope. Sack of spuds. Top too baggy. Just all "wrong". Was gutted. Returned it.

So I would say worth ordering to try it. It may sit in all the right places and make you feel fabulous. If you order enough ££ to get free delivery and returns you kind of have nothing to lose.

I'm just about to send it back too. I love it on the hanger and it is pretty much my ideal dress but I can't get it to work on me at all. The skirt bit is so ridiculously tight and I can't arrange the top bit properly to skim over my stomach the way it should.

I'm 5'7, size 12, but all my weight is around my middle and I suspect that's why it doesn't work. It's such a shame as I love it and can imagine wearing it to death all summer.

I have their ruched skirt and it works perfectly, though.
