How old are you? I'm 40 and find artigiano really good. Their dresses are longer so I don't have to worry about showing loads of thigh when I sit down.

disclosure: whilst looking at the artigiano site, please ignore all the hideous old lady stuff and just look at the dresses!! Grin

Artigiano ones are really long imo, they need to be on the knee or just below, not half way down your calf....

unless you hate your calves....!

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 13/09/2010 16:02

No I like my legs best part about me the rest is bleurgh lol

I rather like these Hobbs ones although not cheap(just chose the Hobbs option to get the 3 I've seen)

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 15/09/2010 20:22

Thanks Moonshine, I've added that page to my favourites and can see me spending a few pennnies payday lol

If you're only 27, aren't wrap dresses a bit um mature?

This is cute, though.

moragbellingham · 15/09/2010 20:54

Ooh I like that one Whatty! Too short (and young) for me.
What about the Laura Ashley fixed wrap spot dress if you reallllly like wrap dresses Darcie.
Someone linked earlier today on another thread.

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 19/09/2010 18:20

Oo I like that one.

WWWY - Maybe i'm a mature 27yr old lol.

I have a wrap dress and it really looks smart/casual for work and i can then of course wear them for nites out etc.

I just need to have a good shopping spree down in Southampton I think!

i bought the IO one but it had to go back. I got the 14 and it was a bit big. I felt it had too much material at the front. I bought the short sleved one though. Maybe it is more flattering on skinnier figures!
