Great Plains Sale

[HalleLouja]

Has anyone bought anything.

I was eyeing up these

Twist Dress

Sundial Dress

I am short-ish and have big norks. Liked the stuff I bought last time.

I'd never even heard of Great Plains. I am off for a nosey now though......

Is Great Plains an actual shop? I thought it was an in-house brand at John Lewis.

GP is sister brand of French Connection I believe.

Halle I have tried both of those before - twist dress, thin and poor quality jersey I thought (the kind that shows every kind of lump and bump) but sundial dress better but felt a little synthetic and print wasn't my style so didn't keep.

I did buy this chambray shirt when it was full price and have worn it loads - is lovely, soft and slightly sheer. Gets lots of compliments.

I love Great Plains stuff, I have bought the Jaipur spot shorts and earlier this yr bought the frill sleeve t-shirt in two colours. V flattering neckline for big norks!

These shorts also ridiculously flattering for some unknown reason and absolute bargain at £11.

how do the sizes come up? I am thinking of this in macchiato. I am a distinct pear shape.

I find it really bizarre how they change their prices around- I looked at this last week, but was busy at work and couldn't buy at the time. It was a bargainous £19.50 at the time- log back in this eve to find it at £57. Most odd!

Thanks HalleLouja looking through the GP sale and by DP bought me the following because I'm worth it (sorry couldn't resist it)

DP says thank you so very much nowhere is safe these days

Oh I want that Boheme tunic really badly but it has sold out. Not sure how I feel about the more floaty version.

I wanted that tunic too. I wish places would remove the item if they are sold out.

How is sizing? I'm a 12-14 trying to decide between medium and large on a couple of dresses. I'm pear shaped -- small on top/ wide on bottom.

I have just bought the dress, and think it is good. Fabric isn't that great, but very slimming style as the twist bit is around the narrowest part of your ribcage. I am small of boob, but think bigger ones would only improve the look!

I bought the twist dress last week ( when it was £25.00 .

It is very flattering (I also have big norks).

ConstanceC and others, how do the shorts/clothes size up? Im in between an 8&10 - should I size up or down?

I am a 12 and got medium last time.

Moknicker Sizing is same as French Connection if that helps - I'd say on the large/generous side. Definitely size down on the shorts - I bought the 10 and I'm a 12 everywhere else. Definitely get the 8.

I got this Breton t in
navy tis lovely...

Also tried that breton Mmecholet - would agree, lovely and surprisingly substantial fabric too. Unfortunately the foldover short sleeves did nothing for my shot-putters arms.

Have also purchased thisbelt - super cute and bargain at £6.50.

mirpuppet I would go for a medium if it is an unfitted relaxed style. If it is a dress that is fitted through the waist/has a side-zip, you might want to order a large, particularly if above a C cup.

Thank you ConstanceChatterley.
