What's a 12? Is it a C?
What about those wrap dresses then? What colour is nicest?

I ordered the pink one in the sale but had to send it back as it had freakishly long arms. It was a bit of a shame as the quality was good and it swooshed nicely. If you are long limbed then you should be ok.

have ordered the sort sleeve one in pink - wanted black really but only pink left in my size. The long sleeve dresses on the models look too long - they are all rolled. Fancy that toga dress as well.

are they long? do you have to be tall?

I had to fold the sleeves back on themselves with mine but otherwise I really liked it. Expensive, in my opinion, but worth it.

I had the Tie Knot dress in indigo and loved it! It is not a wrap dress therefore great for picking up toddler. Wraps can come apart in a most embarassing fashion.

Noooooooo! Hated Isabella Oliver. Really disappointed with quality, fabric, colours... the list goes on.

Also the 'if this label is removed you can't return the garment' labels on flimsy tags which cunningly fall off when you unpack the item.

Shoddy.

Have got the short sleeved pink wrap dress. Am a 12 so bought a D but it came up big so swapped it for a C which fits better. I do like it but feel it looks slightly mumsy in a way. The short sleeved one is more closed at the neck and won't gape.
A word of caution, when I returned the larger size it took at least 2 weeks for the replacement to arrive!

Also the dresses are 95% viscose and so found the dress a bit warm for this weather!

Are you talking about IO 365 or the maternity range? Quite interested in a couple of IO things but from the non-pregnancy range..

I,m thinking of getting their 365 pencil skirt would it be too smart to wear with a sweater for everyday or is it more of a work item?

chocolatefroggie · 13/07/2010 11:43

i meant to say get black it's great for so many things
