This Dress? I keep going back to it but not sure if it'll be ok as am pretty curvy? I buy from them when am in the town, mainly seasalt tunics ect. Free delivery is tempting me.

But then again I am trying to lose a couple of stone. Maybe I should wait until then and treat myself?

I am a 14/16 and wear this style dress regularly. Tie in the waist. Love it

incognitomum · 29/05/2020 11:21

Or it may be sold out by then? And be winter. Confused

Oh thanks. It's my birthday soon so might send the link to dh? He was asking what to get me anyway.

That kind of dress is flattering on all sizes. Really good for defining some shape.

incognitomum · 29/05/2020 11:24

Spotted the Molly tunic half price on there but it's only in an 8.

Looks lovely! I am sure it will look great.

Northernsoulgirl45 · 29/05/2020 11:26

Looks lovely op. Very flattering

LemonTT · 29/05/2020 11:26

Generally this would be ideal for a curvy person. But the waist looks quite high on this. It’s not the style, it’s the cut that matters.

It could work.

incognitomum · 29/05/2020 11:26

Just noticed 20% off code! Decided Smile Thanks for the help.

Just treat yourself (or hope dh buys it for your birthday🤞) - it will look lovely...life is too short to not if you love it!!

Northernsoulgirl45 · 29/05/2020 11:28

O and I find that I lose weight best when I ferl good about myself as I am so get the dress now. Life is too short.

Merryoldgoat · 29/05/2020 11:29

In my experience these suit curvy shapes, but not apple shapes as well as they suit pear or hourglass.

12stepCAKE · 29/05/2020 11:30

Can anyone recommend another websites similar to the OPs please

incognitomum · 29/05/2020 11:38

It's not my website wish it was Grin I'm a support worker just visit that shop whenever in Keswick. Won't be for a while though.

I was supposed to be on holiday so you're right I should treat myself.

That’s lovely x

SheSaidNoFuckThat · 29/05/2020 11:47

I think it depends on your height tbh, if your not very tall that length/style can be quite unflattering (I am short 😂)

Choccyp1g · 29/05/2020 11:50

If the waist of the dress is the same place as your own waist, then I think it will actually look BETTER on a curvy figure.

Disfordarkchocolate · 29/05/2020 11:53

It's really lovely. I'll have a look in the shop next time I'm in Keswick. It looks lovely and cool too.

CovidicusRex · 29/05/2020 11:53

That should suit most people. Off to buy one myself.

TheVanguardSix · 29/05/2020 12:00

It would totally work! Nice dress.

worldsworststepfordwife · 29/05/2020 12:02

Mega flattering for a 14 hourglass

incognitomum · 29/05/2020 12:03

Hmm I have a long torso. That's why I buy tunics, love seasalt ones. Am 5 ft 8.

Be honest, you want it because it is a Dress That Has Pockets. Grin

Foxyloxy1plus1 · 29/05/2020 12:31

The sizing looks big I thought. Surely size 8 isn’t 36 bust and 29 waist. The dress is lovely.
