Any ideas about LK Bennett sizing? Do you like this dress?

blue dress

It says that it can be dressed up or down, what would you put with it to make more casual?

Thanks

Hmm I bought in black from ebay - it went back on pretty soon after.

Sizing: LKB are pretty true to size IMO. Kasia is jersey so you've got a bit of stretch BUT it will also show up lumps and bumps so I would wear smoothing underwear.

Dressing down: It's sort of a smart casual dress already - if you wore wedges and pushed the sleeves up.

I don't think it suits flat shoes which is why I sold mine on. Also not v flattering from behind unless you have a lovely bum (and I'm no Pippa Middleton)

My advice? Have a look for it on ebay - you can get the red/black versions for about £25-30.

I have it in black and am wearing it now! I wear to work and get complimented on it a lot. I just wear with black heels. I don't think it is a casual dress tbh

i think its a bit overpriced TBH, I tried some on and as others say VERY unglattering

I would dress it down with flat tan coloured riding boots. I dont think it would suit ballet flats or sandals.

I find LK Bennett dresses true to size or on larger side, but big around the hips. I am a size 8-10 with a large chest proportionately though, so not surprising that the 10 is a little large around the hips and waist.
