On sale tomorrow at 9am.

Did anyone buy last time round?
What's the sizing/quality like?

Thanks

Loving the enabling, Dowagers - thank you! Grin

The tunics I liked were sold out by the time I went to pay, so am leaving it for now. I have a meeting in town later in the month and will see if they are still in stock.

nipers with the S/S range, I found the Oxford Street store still had quite a lot of stock even though it was sold out online - admittedly not a huge amount of size M's but could be an option rather than paying more on ebay, esp if you are not a size 12?

I went to london today. I got myself the grey tunic dress, the mustard dress and the pink one with black flowers. I really wanted the green and blue ones, and am hoping they get a new batch in like they did with the summer collection.

chipstick when you say the green one do you mean the one with the green collar, with brown dots on the green background?

chipstick10 · 17/09/2012 21:41

teej yes its the first one up on the website think its dress A, also quite liked it in blue

teejwood · 17/09/2012 22:09

Ah - what size do you need? The website is showing the green in stock in xs/s/m at the mo.

chipstick10 · 17/09/2012 22:30

I want large unfortunately.

teejwood · 17/09/2012 23:01

Ah, sorry, should have realised, chip. I'll look out to see if they have more in stock when I'm next in the store and PM you.

chipstick10 · 17/09/2012 23:39

Thanks teej much appreciate it.

There are tunics (the ones release on Mon) on eBay for just under £30. They're from Japan and I think the postage is about £4. Is this reasonable?

Eliza the tunics were 19.99 I think. So a hefty whack up on the basic price.

Are you in/near London? If so I can check for you when I'm next in the store and PM you to let you know what's still available.

Thanks! Alas, I am miles and miles from London. Might hang off and keep checking Uniqlo site in case they get returns or more stock.

Back again re the tunics we were discussing a month ago. I purchased three of the Orla Kiely tunics in sept and wore them as dresses (just above the knee), however i recently washed the one i had been wearing and it is now down to my knees. I washed as per instructions and im now not sure if i should keep the others incase it happens to all of them. Confused. Its weird because when i purchased them i kind of wished they were slightly longer. Thing is i dont know if the dress has now lost its charm if that makes sense. Anything that hits the knee makes me look old, anything above makes me self concious. Has anyone else had any probs or do i have a dud?
